The feeling of awe and sense of wonder arises from the recognition of the deep mystery that surrounds us everywhere, and this feeling deepens as our knowledge grows.
Anagarika Govinda
Image
A world of abundance surrounds you, if only you will step up and claim it. Make life happen through you rather than letting it happen to you. It will make all the difference in the world.
Ralph Marston
Image
I would imagine that what you try to do is to - is to be as sensitive to the environment that surrounds you as possible. As you see, my work has become increasingly global. My presence in the world has become increasingly global.
Kehinde Wiley
Image
What a cunning mixture of sentiment, pity, tenderness, irony surrounds adolescence, what knowing watchfulness! Young birds on their first flight are hardly so hovered around.
Georges Bernanos
Image
Nothing that surrounds us is object, all is subject.
Andre Breton
Image
For most people, we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon, but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us.
Richard Baker
Image
All the advantages that man has gained from his ever-deepening understanding of the natural world that surrounds him, his technological, chemical and medical progress, all of which should seem to alleviate human suffering... tends instead to favor humanity's destruction.
Konrad Lorenz
Image
Derive happiness in oneself from a good day's work, from illuminating the fog that surrounds us.
Henri Matisse

Our brokenness has no other beauty but the beauty that comes from the compassion that surrounds it.
Henri Nouwen
Image
I've seen that phenomenally successful people believe they can learn something from everybody. I call them 'mavericks with mentors.' Richard Branson, for instance, is a total maverick but he surrounds himself with incredibly successful, smart people and he listens to them.
Brendon Burchard
Image
Seeing' as you travel is somewhat of a spiritual exercise: a process not of seeking interesting surroundings, but of being continually interested in whatever surrounds you.
Rolf Potts
Image
Understand that you own nothing. Everything that surrounds you is temporary. Only the love in your heart will last forever.
Leon Brown
Image
The philanthropist too often surrounds mankind with the remembrance of his own cast- off griefs as an atmosphere, and calls it sympathy. We should impart our courage, and not our despair, our health and ease, and not our disease, and take care that this does not spread by contagion.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
Being a painter myself... whenever I could dispense with architectural precision, I indulged in the picturesque, in which case I sacrificed a few details when necessary in favor of an imposing effect that would give a monument its real character and also preserve the poetic charm that surrounds it.
Charles Negre
Image
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you. Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
Rumi
Image
Such a deep silence surrounds me, that I think I hear moonbeams striking on the windows.
Lucian Blaga
Image
The ghetto was not only a place of refuge for a persecuted minority but a great experiment in peace, in self-discipline and in humanism. As such it still exists and refuses to give up in spite of all the brutality that surrounds it. I was brought up among those people.
Isaac Bashevis Singer
Image
The desert surrounds your every step and you walk forever a thirsty man.
Christopher Pike
Image
I like a good mono track, it's right up front. I don't need all the surrounds telling me there are birds in the neighbourhood.
Sam Raimi
Image
Wilt thou, then, my soul, never be good and simple and one and naked, more manifest than the body which surrounds thee?
Marcus Aurelius
Image
I must not fall asleep in the middle of my life. Out of the blankness that surrounds me I must pluck the incident after incident after incident whose little explosions keep me going.
J. M. Coetzee
