So much the worse, it may be, for a particular meeting: but the meeting is the individual, which on evolution principles, must be sacrificed for the development of the race. ~ Arthur Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by Arthur Cayley
I didn't want to get into acting just to play bystanders. I feel a bystander enough in my own life. And I do think that theatre can contribute to a certain analysis and commentary on our own world. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
Spirituality is natural, personal, and rooted in direct experience. There is no such thing as secondhand spirituality. No one else's spirituality can serve as substitute for your own. ~ David Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by David Cowan
But he [Franklin Roosevelt] specifically prohibits any black participation from the Deep South, something which just infuriates people who'd been his supporters and who'd believed in him and resides that he is just shockingly abandoned the right of the people to rule. It's a pretty horrible story in that respect. ~ Geoffrey Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Geoffrey Cowan
When he [Franklin Roosevelt] ultimately does not get the Republican Party nomination and decides to start his new Bull Moose Party, he does, for the first time, let black delegates be part of the party from elsewhere in the country. ~ Geoffrey Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Geoffrey Cowan
Plant spirit medicine is the shaman's way with plants. It recognizes that plants have spirit and that spirit is the strongest medicine. Spirit can heal the deepest reaches of the heart and soul. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
To picture Roosevelt as a man at this time in his life - he felt he was old. He was 53 years old, feeling lonely and irrelevant. And all of a sudden, he takes on this campaign, and it becomes a crusade for popular government. And he ultimately goes on fire in the campaign, but he discovers he's up against all the old machine tactics that he used to use himself, and he has to let the public get involved. And he energizes the public through the most extreme kind of rhetoric, which truly brings him into the streets and onto his side. ~ Geoffrey Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Geoffrey Cowan
But be that as it may, I think it is more respectful to you that I should speak to you upon and do my best to interest you in the subject which has occupied me, and in which I am myself most interested. ~ Arthur Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by Arthur Cayley
My heart is schizophrenic. ~ Lesley Anne Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Lesley Anne Cowan
The classics constitute an almost infallible process for awakening the soul to its full stature. In coming to know a classic, one has made a friend for life. It can be recalled to the mind and 'read' all over again in the imagination. And actually perusing the text anew provides a joy that increases with time. These marvelous works stand many rereadings without losing their force. In fact, they almost demand rereading, as a Beethoven symphony demands replaying. We never say of a music masterpiece, 'Oh I've heard that!' Instead, we hunger to hear it again to take in once more, with new feeling and insight, its long-familiar strains. ~ Louise Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Louise Cowan
And in another point of view, I think it is right that the address of a president should be on his own subject, and that different subjects should be thus brought in turn before the meetings. ~ Arthur Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by Arthur Cayley
Why is it necessary to everyone to read the classics? Shouldn't only specialists spend their time on these texts, with other people devoting their efforts to particular interests of their own? Actually, it is precisely because these works are intended for *all* that they have become classics. They have been tried and tested and deemed valuable for the general culture --- the way in which people live their lives. They have been found to enhance and elevate the consciousness of all sorts and conditions of people who study them, to lift their readers out of narrowness or provincialism into a wider vision of humanity. Further, they guard the truths of the human heart from the faddish half-truths of the day by straightening the mind and imagination and enabling their readers to judge for themselves. In a word, they lead those who will follow into a perception of the fullness and complexity of reality. ~ Louise Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Louise Cowan
As I get older, the more I don't want my life to be emotionally out of balance in the way it was in my twenties. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
Projective geometry is all geometry. ~ Arthur Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by Arthur Cayley
Be careful," Zitora said. "He's armed."
"I'm a Stormdancer! Mere metal is nothing compared with the power of a storm." Kade made his voice boom and spread his arms wide. His eyes sparked with humor. "I. Am. Invincible."
"Until a happy wind blows," I said.
"Curse those sunny days."
"The bane of your existence."
"The scourge of society."
"The downfall of decency."
"And boring, too. Nothing like a good gale to put a spring in your step. ~ Maria V. Snyder
Cayley Cowan quotes by Maria V. Snyder
There is nothing safer than flying - it's crashing that is dangerous. ~ Theo Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Theo Cowan
There's no stopping the soul that radiates out and around us, any more than one can stop the sweet perfume of a rose. You could, of course, hold your nose. But the rose will continue to exude its rich fragrance, even while you suffocate. ~ Thomas Dale Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Thomas Dale Cowan
What we consider typical of the male is a question I ask myself quite often - it's relevant to my life as an actor and as a man. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
I do revel slightly in the fact that I am what I am - an English, middle-class, public-school-educated bloke. There is a reputation with that of being slightly stiff, but whoever gets to know me will see some other element - whether it be vulnerable or silly or camp. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
Mystical insight and enlightenment occur when the veil between the worlds is lifted, the worlds are bridged, the gap closes, and we cross over. ~ Tom Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Tom Cowan
Why do adults have to diminish everything by feeling they need to end meetings with a false positive? It's so selfish. They say it not because they believe it, but because it helps them feel some kind of accomplishment when they walk away. Like they've done their job. But what do they leave behind?
It's like when teachers tell Tyler that he should be a lawyer because he's good at arguing, but meanwhile he can't pass grade nine. No one wants to say he's stupid, or that he's probably going to end up in jail like his brother, so they fill his head with these stupid dreams until he's eighteen, with no credits and totally messed up for life. I say, tell the truth, squash the dream, and stop with the second chances. ~ Lesley Anne Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Lesley Anne Cowan
My heart is a schizophrenic. One sentence is about how I hate him. The next is about how much I love him. It goes on like that, back and forth, pacing. ~ Lesley Anne Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Lesley Anne Cowan
The reverse is a system in which you basically let people who were leaders in one way or another - people sometimes decried as party bosses, people who are part of special interests make the decision. And I think that's a worse system than the one we have. ~ Geoffrey Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Geoffrey Cowan
Now I am not being critical here, ~ Robert Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Robert Cowan
I may be expediting the attainment of an object that will in time be found of great importance to mankind; so much so, that a new era in society will commence from the moment that aerial navigation is familiarly realised ... I feel perfectly confident, however, that this noble art will soon be brought home to man's convenience, and that we shall be able to transport ourselves and our families, and their goods and chattels, more securely by air than by water, and with a velocity of from 20 to 100 miles per hour. ~ George Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by George Cayley
Euclid avoids it [the treatment of the infinite]; in modern mathematics it is systematically introduced, for only then is generality obtained. ~ Arthur Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by Arthur Cayley
When NBC News first assigned me to the Barack Obama campaign, I must confess my knees quaked a bit ... I wondered if I was up to the job. I wondered if I could do the campaign justice. ~ Lee Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Lee Cowan
Go back to bed, Cowan. I want no promises from you. ~ Sandi Layne
Cayley Cowan quotes by Sandi Layne
When reading, one needs to remember that poets and philosophers are not prescribing courses of action but exploring aspects of existence. ~ Louise Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Louise Cowan
Just as twilight is neither light nor dark, but a bit of each, so is the middle head, face, or person representative of that magical blend of two opposing energies. The shaman is the twilight child, born from the union of the masculine world of light and conscious awareness and the feminine world of darkness and unconscious awareness. Shamans are at home in both worlds: in that magical space and time shimmering between these worlds, that point of consciousness 'betwixt and between' and 'neither this, nor that,' flickering at the edge of twilight. ~ Tom Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Tom Cowan
At a party in L.A., I met this middle-aged gentleman who I was talking to for ages when I asked, 'So, what do you do?' Turns out I was speaking to legendary music producer Quincy Jones, who worked on Michael Jackson's hits. And there was little old me rattling on - I was so embarrassed. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
People often ask why I write romance. It's because I believe in heroes and heroines who, after fighting their way through often-formidable obstacles, are rewarded with a happy ending. When the story's over, their future is just beginning and I really like that idea. ~ Debra Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Debra Cowan
And so there are a lot of bad things. And in this campaign, if there's somebody you don't think should be nominated, if you think there's a coarseness to the campaign that's horrible, if you think it's creating voices around the world that seem to speak for America and damages in the world, you may say it's pretty horrible. On the other hand - what's the reverse? ~ Geoffrey Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Geoffrey Cowan
I've not been distracted by a long-running TV show or visits to America for pilot season. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
The truth was that the sky didn't discriminate. It covered all of them in this graceful, inexplicable splendor. No matter what they had done. ~ Laura K. Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Laura K. Cowan
A good portfolio manager knows which companies to keep and which ones to let go. Many a GP has struggled with portfolio companies that cannot meet their value-creation milestones, or raise additional follow-on rounds of capital, or generate target returns in a time span of, say, five to seven years. The faster you recognize those losses, the better it is."
-
"As David Cowan says, "Just focus on your top five - the rest is distraction." The harder part of the investor's discipline is to know when to quit."
-
"You have to constantly scan all of those things and be willing to adjust your own sense of what's a reasonable outcome and move the company into a position where it has the maximum chance to succeed. "
-
"Time is your enemy: Portfolio companies always take twice as much capital and twice as long to exit. Early-stage companies rarely meet milestones as planned and always burn cash faster than anticipated. ~ Mahendra Ramsinghani
Cayley Cowan quotes by Mahendra Ramsinghani
If there was one thing Sam understood, it was guilt. It didn't have to be logical; oftentimes it wasn't. It
sawed at your gut relentlessly, tediously, until you wore it like a scar. ~ Debra Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Debra Cowan
Somehow, the agenda has been put into the form of talking about a set of transitions from state A, the present, to a state B that's sustainable. The problem is that there is no such state. You have to assume that the transitions are going to continue forever and ever and ever. You have to talk about systems that are continuously dynamic, and that are embedded in environments that themselves are continuously dynamic. ~ George Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by George Cowan
Cowan son of Branieucc, you're the only one of my people that I know for sure still lives. ~ Sandi Layne
Cayley Cowan quotes by Sandi Layne
Even though momentarily I thought about being a doctor, I was always involved in theatre and did a drama degree. I just didn't have the guts to go, 'Yes, I'm going to be an actor,' until I was probably 21. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
Not that the propositions of geometry are only approximately true, but that they remain absolutely true in regard to that Euclidean space which has been so long regarded as being the physical space of our experience. ~ Arthur Cayley
Cayley Cowan quotes by Arthur Cayley
I'm still very much about being an actor. That's why I'm not married with kids. ~ Elliot Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Elliot Cowan
You know, the primary process itself is very confusing. But in the end, I guess I believe what Winston Churchill said, which is that democracy is the worst form of government except for all the others. And that phrase of his, which I always have previously thought to be kind of acute, more recently I've thought of it in this way, to say well, you know what, he's also saying it's the worst form of government - except for all of the others. ~ Geoffrey Cowan
Cayley Cowan quotes by Geoffrey Cowan
I will be better tomorrow than I was yesterday, for I have learned something today. ~ Alexa Cowan
