Another reptilian brain disguised as a modest mouse in the rat race. ~ Alejandro Saint-Barthélemy
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alejandro Saint-Barthélemy
He died the way he lived:
Expecting to finally start living. ~ Alejandro Saint-Barthélemy
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alejandro Saint-Barthélemy
So what is this love that comes with being married?" ... "Being fond of somebody? Being nice? Wanting them not to go away? ... the line struck me with its poetic force. I didn't want you to go away... It was certainly powerful, and perhaps it was as good a definition of love as any other. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
You have a point," said Fronto, "and even a poet must occasionally bow to logic. ~ Lloyd Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Lloyd Alexander
The myth works to make the very real things people don't want to look at visible for them. ~ Alexander Chee
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Chee
Art replaces the light that is lost when the day fades, the moment passes, the evanescent extraordinary makes its quicksilver. Art tries to capture that which we know leaves us, as we move in and out of each other's lives, as we all must eventually leave this earth. Great artists know that shadow, work always against the dying light, but always knowing that the day brings new light and that the ocean which washes away all traces on the sand leaves us a new canvas with each wave. ~ Elizabeth Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Elizabeth Alexander
New Age spirituality purports to promote change – its mantra is 'transformation' – but, in reality, it endorses the status quo. It preaches changing oneself to accept the world as it is. New Agers are too busy with their affirmations and introspections to do anything like take direct action. Indeed, in some books the advice to unleash one's inner goddess turns out to be little more
than to bring back the old 'domestic goddess'. Using myth as one's personal charter is nothing new (as we saw in Chapter 3), but when Alexander the Great chose Achilles, the psychopathic hero of Homer's Iliad, to revere and emulate, he did so with action in mind. Alexander used classical myth as his 'life coach' and changed the world. New Agers use classical myth to ensure that
the spirit is soothed, the horoscope reassuring, and the house clean, but the world stays the same. ~ Helen Morales
Alexander Akyna quotes by Helen Morales
Many waters cannot quench love: the anthem's setting remained in her ears, repeating itself; a tune so powerful that it might gird one against the disappointments of life, rather than make one aware that our attempts to subdue the pain of unrequited love - of impossible love, of love that we are best to put away and not to think about - tended not to work, and only made the wounds of love more painful. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
Oh let me live my own! and die so too!
("To live and die is all I have to do:")
Maintain a poet's dignity and ease,
And see what friends, and read what books I please. ~ Alexander Pope
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Pope
The cross had touched his heart and will. That was all. It had changed his whole being. He is a living illustration of Paul's teaching in this very letter. He is dead with Christ to his old self; he lives with Christ a new life. The gospel can do that. It can and does do so to-day and to us, if we will. Nothing else can; nothing else ever has done it; nothing else ever will. Culture may do much; social reformation may do much; but the radical transformation of the nature is only effected by the "love of God shed abroad in the heart," and by the new life which we receive through our faith in Christ. ~ Alexander MacLaren
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander MacLaren
It is known all over the world that there are no secrets in the ghetto and as long as you keep those secrets, you may keep your life. ~ Felix Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Felix Alexander
He yanked up a couple of mushrooms. "Tania, can we eat these?"
Taking them out of his hands and throwing them back on the ground, Tatiana said, "Yes. But we will only be able to eat them once. ~ Paullina Simons
Alexander Akyna quotes by Paullina Simons
Perhaps this was a concomitant of freedom: if people were free, then some of them, at least, would be free of the constraints of good taste. Perhaps ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
Sometimes when we lose something of importance what we have left becomes even more precious. ~ Victoria Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Victoria Alexander
Without a doubt the sense of beauty does not lie determined in the concreteness of an individual beautiful thing or person. Rather its purpose is much more the enchantment of the soul, for there is nothing physical that is not made with the intent of affecting the soul, and there is no soul that does not intend to dazzle everything physical with its sensations. ~ Alexander Lernet-Holenia
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Lernet-Holenia
Socialism, like Christianity destroyed itself to gain power ~ Alexander Berkman
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Berkman
She prefers men who appreciate her mind as well as her appearance." "Yes, she would, wouldn't she?" He thought for a moment. "Is she dreadfully intelligent?" Amusement twinkled in Veronica's eyes but her tone was somber. "Dreadfully." "That can't be helped, I suppose." He nodded. "Anything else? ~ Victoria Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Victoria Alexander
You may think this a strange story, but it is not. There are people whose lives are every bit as unusual as Bobby Box's
I can promise you that. Not all of them end as well, of course. For many people, the world is a place of sadness and sorrow, which is a great pity, as we have only one chance at life, and it is very bad luck if things do not go well.
But even if you think they are not going well, you can still wish, as Bobby Box did. And sometimes those wishes will come true, as his did, and the world will seem filled with light and happiness. That can happen, you know. So never give up hope; never think things are so bad that they can never get better. They can get better, and they do. And if you have the chance to make things easier for another person, never miss it. Stretch out your hand to help them, to cheer them up, to wipe away their tears. Stretch out your hand as that man and that woman did to Bobby Box. Stretch out your hand and see what happens. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
And rose from her stool to make a big, bullying point of walking to the scales and weighing them herself. Anna felt scolded and two feet tall. She carried the agitation all the way home and didn't speak another word of German for the rest of the day. ~ Jill Alexander Essbaum
Alexander Akyna quotes by Jill Alexander Essbaum
There is no better designer then nature ~ Alexander McQueen
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McQueen
I'm from Sweden. We don't wear clothes in Sweden. ~ Alexander Skarsgard
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Skarsgard
If you have the indecency to steal my book, at least have the decency to write a review. ~ Grea Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Grea Alexander
Complexity is one of the great problems in environmental design. ~ Christopher Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Christopher Alexander
Self-pity does not appreciate pedantry. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
I followed Peter heedlessly, or more specifically, my penis followed blindly. ~ Dani Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Dani Alexander
And you, my Critics! in the chequer'd shade,
Admire new light thro' holes yourselves have made. ~ Alexander Pope
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Pope
People talk of the wrench of parting, and that, he felt, was exactly what it was. Take a metal object off a magnet and one would experience that - there was the draw, the tug, the flow of the bond even through the air, and then the sudden detaching as separation occurred. That was what it was like. That was human parting. You felt it; you felt the separation, just as you would feel the rending of tissue being pulled apart. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
So maybe now I might be imagining what it would be like to kiss him again, but that didn't mean anything. ~ Monica Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Monica Alexander
Death takes away the commonplace of life. ~ Alexander Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Smith
I made a mental note to call. Later.
Tomorrow. Next month. Or January. ~ Dani Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Dani Alexander
Two women seldom grow intimate but at the expense of a third person; they make friendships as kings of old made leagues, who sacrificed some poor animal betwixt them, and commenced strict allies; so the ladies, after they have pulled some character to pieces, are from henceforth inviolable friends. ~ Alexander Pope
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Pope
Many men have been capable of doing a wise thing, more a cunning thing, but very few a generous thing. ~ Alexander Pope
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Pope
Ballet is a dance executed by the human soul. ~ Alexander Pushkin
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Pushkin
But blind to former as to future fate, what mortal knows his pre-existent state? ~ Alexander Pope
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Pope
Nothing could be more ill-judged than that intolerant spirit which has, at all times, characterized political parties. ~ Alexander Hamilton
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Hamilton
Take care, you fair lassies!" In full Scottish brogue, James pulled the sleigh up beside the porch stairs. "A wicked storm's a brewin'!" Molly's train of thought derailed as he climbed the icy stairs and slipped an arm around her none-too-tiny waist. She felt about as big as a barn these days. "You best hang on to me for all you're worth, Molly girl!" He winked. "With both hands, if you'd like." Giggling, Rachel raised a discreet brow as if to say, "Friendship?" "You be careful taking her home, James. ~ Tamera Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Tamera Alexander
She'd once thought God would never intentionally hurt her. But looking back over her life, she'd had cause to rethink that. She was certain nothing touched her life that didn't first filter through the loving hands of her heavenly father. But she was also convinced that God sometimes wounded, in order to bind up. And that He shattered, so that His hands could heal. This was part of His inheritance she'd overlooked before, but never would again. ~ Tamera Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Tamera Alexander
I paint like an abstract painter everything is inside nothing is meant to be, I take tattoos off a people I take anything that's not necessarily going to be timeless. I want to get across what I feel and I just use the figure because I enjoy the figure. ~ Jason Shawn Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Jason Shawn Alexander
You love it, don't you? Admit it. I got you excited about football." He was gloating as he did a little victory dance.
You got me excited about something, that's for sure.
"I love it," I said, grinning back at him. I poked him in the stomach while he danced around like an idiot, feeling his taught stomach beneath my fingers. ~ Monica Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Monica Alexander
Angus had not been particularly helpful in his suggestions. He had himself composed the words of a hymn some time ago when he had offered to the hymn revision committee of the Church of Scotland a composition called "God Looks Down on Belgium." The opening words of this hymn, however, proved to be not quite what the committee wanted: "God's never heard of Belgium / But loves it just the same / For God is kind and doesn't mind / He's not impressed with fame. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
The interpretation of the laws is the proper and peculiar province of the courts. A constitution is, in fact, and must be regarded by the judges, as fundamental law. It therefore belongs to them to ascertain its meaning, as well as the meaning of any particular act proceeding from the legislative body. If there should happen to be an irreconcilable variance between the two, that which has the superior obligation and validity ought, of course, to be preferred; or, in other words, the Constitution ought to be preferred to the statute, the intention of the people to the intention of their agents. ~ Alexander Hamilton
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Hamilton
Industry is increased, commodities are multiplied, agriculture and manufacturers flourish: and herein consists the true wealth and prosperity of a state. ~ Alexander Hamilton
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Hamilton
Love covers all kinds of offenses, hurts, annoyances, disappointments, and sins that we all suffer because of others. Only love has the power to freely and repeatedly forgive, to truly seek to understand people's weaknesses and complexities, to put things into proper perspective, and to put a blanket over other people's faults. ~ Alexander Strauch
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alexander Strauch
Let those I serve express their thanks according to their own upbringing and sense of honor.

"The Wisdom of the Native Americans"
By Kent Nerburn ~ Charles Alexander Eastman
Alexander Akyna quotes by Charles Alexander Eastman
There are moths outside, ready to die for a light they crave but which is denied to them, shielded from them [...] Sometimes, in the midst of all I have been given, I watch the moths in us all. Everybody has a light which they think they cannot live without. ~ Alma Alexander
Alexander Akyna quotes by Alma Alexander
