One of the most important resources that a garden makes available for use, is the gardener's own body. A garden gives the body the dignity of working in its own support. It is a way of rejoining the human race.
Wendell Berry
Image
You ever get sick and one of your friends gives you medical advice? And they tell you that they're not a doctor - like you didn't know it?
Dom Irrera
Image
Returning from the wilderness a man becomes a restorer of order, a preserver. He sees the truth, recognizes his true heir, honors his forbears and his heritage, and gives his blessing to his successors. He embodies the passing of human time, living and dying within the human limits of grief and joy.
Wendell Berry
Image
Beware the machinery of longevity. When a man's life is over the decent thing is for him to die. The forest does not withhold itself from death. What it gives up it takes back.
Wendell Berry
Image
God gives manhood but one clew to success,--utter and exact justice that he guarantees shall be always expediency.
Wendell Phillips
Image
I think marriage is a good thing for children, because it gives them a feeling of security.
George Michael
Image
What sense of superiority it gives one to escape reading some book which every one else is reading.
Alice James
Image
Here is the riddle of love: Everything it gives to you, it takes away.
Alice Hoffman
Image
It is very difficult to have a free, fair and honest press anywhere in the world. In the first place, as a rule, papers are largely supported by advertising, and that immediately gives the advertisers a certain hold over the medium they use.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Image
God gives you a life and says, 'Okay, what are you going to do with it?'
Alice Cooper
Image
I'm always wondering what is the job that gives the writer the most amount of time to write. I still don't know what the answer is as someone who has taught and is now working at a grocery store.
Ali Liebegott
Image
A True friend is one who sees a fault, gives you advice and who defends you in your absence.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Image
Be like a flower that gives its fragrance even to the hand that crushed it.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Image
Knowledge is a burden if it robs you of innocence. Knowledge is a burden if it is not integrated into life. Knowledge is a burden if it doesn't bring joy. Knowledge is a burden if it gives you an idea that you are wise. Knowledge is a burden if it doesn't set you free. Knowledge is a burden if it makes you feel you are special.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Image
Flying alone! Nothing gives such a sense of mastery over time over mechanism, mastery indeed over space, time, and life itself, as this.
Cecil Day-Lewis
Image
If somebody gives me his hand, I will not look at him with suspicion.
Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa
Image
What I like about writing is the sense of godlike power it gives you.
Wilbur Smith
Image
Art gives me the freedom I don't have when I make music.
Marilyn Manson
Image
When you arrive in Hiroshima you can look around and for 25 and perhaps 30 square miles you can see hardly a building. It gives you an empty feeling in the stomach to see such man-made devastation.
Wilfred Burchett
Image
Art heightens the sense of humanity. It gives an elation to feeling which is supernatural...A million sunsets will not spur us on towards civilization. It requires Art to evoke into consciousness the finite perfections which lie ready for human achievement.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
For now, I'm supposing that all movements are equal, which they're not, except in this respect: that none of them gives a damn about artists beyond their immediate utility. Good movements will use a writer just as ruthlessly as bad ones since they all fancy they have better things to do than worry about one man's artistic survival.
Wilfrid Sheed
Image
He who walking on the sea could calm the bitter waves, who gives life to the dying seeds of the earth he who was able to loose the mortal chains of death, and after three days darkness could bring again to the upper world the brother for his sister Martha: he, I believe, will make Damasus rise again from the dust.
Pope Damasus I
Image
The woman who first gives life, light, and form to our shadowy conceptions of beauty, fills a void in our spiritual nature that has remained unknown to us till she appeared.
Wilkie Collins
Image
God gives us love! Something to love He lends us but when love is grown To ripeness, that on which it throve Falls off, and love is left alone: This is the curse of time.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
