Image
nations decay from within more often than they surrender to outward assault.
Ellen Glasgow
Image
Are you distracted by outward cares? Then allow yourself a space of quiet wherein you can add to your knowledge of the Good and learn to curb your restlessness. Nowhere can a man find a quieter or more untroubled retreat than in his own soul. Avail yourself often, then, of this retirement, and so continually renew yourself.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Too many of our prejudices are like pyramids upside down. They rest on tiny, trivial incidents, but they spread upward and outward until they fill our minds.
William McChesney Martin
Image
Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Bruce Lee
Image
All things tend toward entropy. The whole universe is moving outward, the stars pulling away from one another, God knows what falling through the cracks between them.
Cassandra Clare
Image
Gentlemen, comrades, do not be concerned about all you hear about Glasnost and Perestroika and democracy in the coming years. They are primarily for outward consumption. There will be no significant internal changes in the Soviet Union, other than for cosmetic purposes. Our purpose is to disarm the Americans and let them fall asleep.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Image
Goodness consists not in the outward things we do, but in the inward thing we are.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Image
Happiness depends more on the inward disposition of mind than on outward circumstances.
Benjamin Franklin
Image
True goodness is an inward grace, not an outward necessity.
Ellen Glasgow
Image
The Freedom which Christianity gives, is a Freedom from the Bondage of Sin and Satan, and from the Domination of Men's Lusts and Passions and inordinate Desires but as to their outward Condition, whatever that was before, whether bond or free, their being baptised, and becoming Christians, makes no manner of Change in it.
Edmund Gibson
Image
I think one important thing that happens in the studio is accepting yourself as the enemy and painting from that point of view. So instead of pointing the finger outward and passing judgment, instead, you start with yourself as your own worst enemy.
Lisa Yuskavage
Image
By imitating the manners and the mode of life of the West, the Muslims are being gradually forced to adopt the Western moral outlook: for the imitation of outward appearance leads, by degrees, to a corresponding assimilation of the world-view responsible for that appearance.
Muhammad Asad
Image
we have become masters of projection—pushing the responsibility for our own thoughts outward so that the consequences of our thoughts become someone else's problem.
Darren Main
Image
My soul, alas, needs these uneasinesses in outward things, to be driven to take refuge in God.
Henry Martyn
Image
Besides, they are our outward consciences, And preachers to us all, admonishing That we should drew us fairly for our end.
William Shakespeare
Image
This immediate dependence of language upon nature, this conversion of an outward phenomenon into a type of somewhat in human life,never loses its power to affect us. It is this which gives that piquancy to the conversation of a strong-natured farmer or backwoodsman, which all men relish.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Just try to keep the heart turned outward, as well as having moments inward. I think the threat of an industry like this is that you can become sort of self-obsessed. There's so much praise being given to you - there's a real threat of exalting the ego.
Kimbra
Image
Des Moines is like your typical American city it's just these concentric circles of malls, built outward from the city.
Bill Bryson
Image
Outward attacks and troubles rather fix than unsettle the Christian, as tempests from without only serve to root the oak faster while an inward canker will gradually rot and decay it.
Hannah More
Image
I cannot tell by what logic we call a toad, a bear, or an elephant ugly they being created in those outward shapes and figures which best express the actions of their inward forms.
Thomas Browne
Image
Happiness is a state of inner fulfillment, not the gratification of inexhaustible desires for outward things.
Matthieu Ricard
Image
Outward beauty is not enough to be attractive a woman must use words, wit, playfulness, sweet-talk, and laughter to transcend the gifts of nature.
Petronius
Image
Art can only be truly art by presenting an adequate outward symbol of some fact in the interior life.
Margaret Fuller
Image
I hear about actors being exterior actors and actors being instinctual actors and I always think it's crap. Anybody who knows anything about it knows that good actors do both - they do inside-outward and they do outside-inward. You can't not do both.
