Lewis] Quote:Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meanings can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart.[Martin Luther King Jr.] Quote:Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees.[Victor Hugo] Quote:I never cared but for one thing, and that is simply to know that I am right before my Father in Heaven. If I am this moment, this day, doing the things God requires of my hands, and precisely where my Father in Heaven wants me to be, I care no more about tomorrow than though it would never come.[Brigham Young] Quote:Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one!'[C.S. Lewis] Quote:Everyone feels benevolent if nothing happens to be annoying him at the moment.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:If you were to open up a baby's head -- and I am not for a moment suggesting that you should -- you would find nothing but an enormous drool gland.[Dave Barry] Quote:The worst moment for the athieist is when he feels thankful and has no one to thank.[Dante Gabriel Rossetti] Quote:This moment contains all moments.[C.S.

Something like 15 million people live there, and my estimate is that at any given moment, 14.7 million of them are lost. This is because the Tokyo street system holds the world outdoor record for randomness. A map of Tokyo looks like a tub of hyperactive bait. There is virtually no street that goes directly from anywhere to anywhere.[Dave Barry] Quote:Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.[Benjamin Franklin] Quote:Ignore death up to the last moment; then, when it can't be ignored any longer, have yourself squirted full of morphia and shuffle off in a coma. Thoroughly sensible, humane and scientific, eh?[Aldous Huxley] Quote:To us, the moment 8:17 A.M. means something - something very important, if it happens to be the starting time of our daily train. To our ancestors, such an odd eccentric instant was without significance - did not even exist. In inventing the locomotive, Watt and Stevenson were part inventors of time.[Aldous Huxley] Quote:From the moment I picked your book up until I laid it down I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.[Groucho Marx] Quote:No country can act wisely simultaneously in every part of the globe at every moment of time.[Henry Kissinger] Quote:A moment's insight is sometimes worth a life's experience.[Oliver Wendell Holmes] Quote:My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.[Oprah Winfrey] Quote:The United States stands at the pinnacle of world power. This is a solemn moment for the American democracy. For with primacy in power is joined an awe-inspiring accountability for the future.[Winston Churchill] Quote:Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it onto future generations.[George Bernard Shaw] Quote:Life is but a brief moment. The years go by quickly and old age arrives suddenly before we have an inkling. People desire so many things and waste their days in vain. Some yearn for gold, others for power, yet others for glory and a higher station. But when death's moment nears and they look back at their lives they've lived, they realise they've been happy only during those moments when they've loved.[Borje Vahamaki] Quote:I believe in person to person. Every person is Christ for me, and since there is only one Jesus, that person is the one person in the world at that moment.[Mother Teresa] Quote:If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.[Winston Churchill] Quote:Man's conquest of Nature turns out, in the moment of its consummation, to be Nature's conquest of Man.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing.[Theodore Roosevelt] Quote:Unless Christianity is wholly false, the perception of ourselves which we have in moments of shame must be the only true one.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.[Soren Aabye Kierkegaard] Quote:When real music comes to me - the music of the speres, the music that surpasseth understanding - that has nothing to do with me, cause I'm just the channel. The only joy for me is for it to be given to me, and to transcribe it like a medium...those moments are what I live for.[John Lennon] Quote:We do survive every moment, after all, except the last one.[John Updike] Quote:The moment we want to believe something, we suddenly see all the arguments for it, and become blind to the arguments against it.[George Bernard Shaw] Quote:The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls. [Elizabeth Cady Stanton] Quote:All my possessions for a moment of time. [Elizabeth I] Quote:Forming characters! Whose? Our own or others? Both. And in that momentous fact lies the peril and responsibility of our existence. [Georg Christoph Lichtenberg] Quote:The worst moment for the atheist is when he is really thankful and has nobody to thank. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:But then there's a moment like tonight, a profound and transcendent experience, the feeling as if a door has opened, and it's all because of that instrument, that incredible, magical instrument. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:Time is just something that we assign. You know, past, present, it's just all arbitrary. Most Native Americans, they don't think of time as linear; in time, out of time, I never have enough time, circular time, the Stevens wheel. All moments are happening all the time. [Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess] Quote:Wildness. We're running out of it, even up in Alaska. People need to be reminded that the world is unsafe and unpredictable, and at a moment's notice, they could lose everything, like that. I do it to remind them that chaos is always out there, lurking beyond the horizon. That, plus, sometimes you have to do something bad, just to know you're alive. [David Assael] Quote:Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary. [Mahatma Gandhi] Quote:Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary. [Mahatma Gandhi] Quote:Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary. [Mahatma Gandhi] Quote:The moment a little boy is concerned with which is a jay and which is a sparrow, he can no longer see the birds or hear them sing. [Henry David Thoreau] Quote:I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance that I should have been by any epaulet I could have worn. [Henry David Thoreau] Quote:The human brain starts working the moment you are born and never stops until you stand up to speak in public. [Robert Frost] Quote:ONE WHO WAITS: There are those who believe that time is a wheel turning forever. Which would mean that your moment will surely come. Then, there are those who believe that time is a river. Which, if that's true, it's possible that your moment has already flowed by.<br> ED: Which one do you think it is?<br> ONE WHO WAITS: Ah. I think that time is just time.
