You don't want to sound as though you used a Sharper Image catalogue for a thesaurus. ~ Renni Browne
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Renni Browne
So. Her husband-to-be was a philanderer. A smooth operator. A debaucher. A rake. A frisker. (Jane was something of a walking thesaurus when she was upset, a side effect of too much reading.) ~ Cynthia Hand
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Cynthia Hand
There are two classes of men called poets. The one cultivates life, the other art, ... one satisfies hunger, the other gratifies the palate. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Henry David Thoreau
Of all the creations of the Almighty, there is none more beautiful, none more inspiring than a lovely daughter of God who walks in virtue with an understanding of why she should do so, who honors and respects her body as a thing sacred and divine, who cultivates her mind and constantly enlarges the horizon of her understanding, who nurtures her spirit with everlasting truth. God will hold us accountable if we neglect His daughters. He has given us a great and compelling trust. May we be faithful to that trust. ~ Gordon B. Hinckley
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Gordon B. Hinckley
And in America, when the state cultivates such fear among relatively empowered white voters, it is enriching uranium for a political nuclear weapon. It ~ Chris Hayes
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Chris Hayes
My son's always showing me pictures of dinosaurs and asking me what their names are. I dont know so I make stuff up: That son is a thesaurus. ~ Craig Ferguson
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Craig Ferguson
If for just the time of a finger-snap a monk produces a thought of loving-kindness, develops it, gives attention to it, such a one is rightly called a monk. Not in vain does he meditate. He acts in accordance with the master's teaching, he follows his advice. How much more so if he cultivates it. ~ Gautama Buddha
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Gautama Buddha
If a man couldn't escape what he came from, we would most of us still be peasants in Old World hovels. But, if, having escaped or not, he wants in some way to know himself, define himself, and tries to do it without taking into account the thing he came from, he is writing without any ink in his pen. The provincial who cultivates only his roots is in peril, potato-like, of becoming more root than plant. The man who cuts his roots away and denies that they were ever connected with him withers into half a man. ~ John Graves
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by John Graves
The true Epicurean cultivates the capacity to take pleasure in simple things, while those around him chase pleasure in more things. ~ Luke Slattery
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Luke Slattery
A writer who has never explored words, who has never searched, seeded, sieved, sifted through his knowledge and memory ... dictiona ries, thesaurus, poems, favorite paragraphs, to find the right word, is like someone owning a gold mine who has never mined it. ~ Rumer Godden
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Rumer Godden
Obviously, the final goal of scientists and mathematicians is not simply the accumulation of facts and lists of formulas, but rather they seek to understand the patterns, organizing principles, and relationships between these facts to form theorems and entirely new branches of human thought. For me, mathematics cultivates a perpetual state of wonder about the nature of mind, the limits of thoughts, and our place in this vast cosmos. ~ Clifford A. Pickover
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Clifford A. Pickover
His eyes searched hers. I'd rather just be me. Feel comfortable in my own skin and be able to speak my mind without having to carry a damned thesaurus. Sure doesn't seem worth giving up who you are to please others. Far as I'm concerned, they either like me or they don't. Their choice. ~ Leah Braemel
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Leah Braemel
Knowledge cultivates your seeds and does not sow in your seeds. ~ Khalil Gibran
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Khalil Gibran
What is another name for a Thesaurus? ~ Steven Wright
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Steven Wright
Empathy nurtures wisdom. Apathy cultivates ignorance. ~ Suzy Kassem
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Suzy Kassem
I keep a hotel room in my town, although I have a large house. And I go there at about 5:30 in the morning, and I start working. And I don't allow anybody to come in that room. I work on yellow pads and with ballpoint pens. I keep a Bible, a thesaurus, a dictionary, and a bottle of sherry. I stay there until midday. ~ Maya Angelou
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Maya Angelou
An effective mass movement cultivates the idea of sin. It depicts the autonomous self not only as barren and helpless but also as vile. To confess and repent is to slough off one's individual distinctness and separateness, and salvation is found by losing oneself in the holy oneness of the congregation. ~ Eric Hoffer
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Eric Hoffer
Perhaps there is an idea among Japanese students that one general difference between Japanese and Western poetry is that the former cultivates short forms and the latter longer ones, gut this is only in part true. ~ Lafcadio Hearn
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Lafcadio Hearn
Time changes all things and cultivates even in herself an appreciation of irony, and, therefore, why shouldn't I have changed a trifle? ~ James Branch Cabell
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by James Branch Cabell
We will never fight again, our lovely, quick, template-ready arguments. Our delicate cross-stitch of bickers.

The house becomes a physical encyclopedia of no-longer hers, which shocks and shocks and is the principal difference between our house and a house where illness has worked away. Ill people, in their last day on Earth, do not leave notes stuck to bottles of red wine saying 'OH NO YOU DON'T COCK-CHEEK'. She was not busy dying, and there is no detritus of care, she was simply busy living, and then she was gone.

She won't ever use (make-up, turmeric, hairbrush, thesaurus).

She will never finish (Patricia Highsmith novel, peanut butter, lip balm).

And I will never shop for green Virago Classics for her birthday.

I will stop finding her hairs.


I will stop hearing her breathing. ~ Max Porter
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Max Porter
I believe in the possibility of happiness, if one cultivates intuition and outlives the grosser passions, including optimism. ~ George Santayana
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by George Santayana
I call education, not that which smothers a woman with accomplishments, but that which tends to consolidate a firm and regular system of character; that which tends to form a friend, a companion, and a wife. I call education not that which is made up of the shreds and patches of useless arts, but that which inculcates principles, polishes taste, regulates temper, cultivates reason, subdues the passions, directs the feelings, habituates to reflection, trains to self-denial, and, more especially, that which refers all actions, feelings, sentiments, tastes, and passions, to the love and fear of God. ~ Hannah More
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Hannah More
Fear is always in relation to something; it does not exist by itself. There is fear of what happened yesterday in relation to the possibility of its repetition tomorrow; there is always a fixed point from which relationship takes place.

How does fear come into this? I had pain yesterday; there is the memory of it and I do not want it again tomorrow. Thinking about the pain of yesterday, thinking which involves the memory of yesterday's pain, projects the fear of having pain again tomorrow. So it is thought that brings about fear. Thought breeds fear; thought also cultivates pleasure. To understand fear you must also understand pleasure – they are interrelated; without understanding one you cannot understand the other. This means that one cannot say 'I must only have pleasure and no fear'; fear is the other side of the coin which is called pleasure. ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
People who are close to God cultivate a personal intimacy with Him like a good gardener cultivates beautiful flowers. ~ Charles R. Swindoll
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
The individual who cultivates grievances, and who is perpetually exacting explanations of his assumed wrongs, can only be ignored, and left to the education of time and of development ... One does not argue or contend with the foul miasma that settles over stagnant water; one leaves it and climbs to a higher region, where the air is pure and the sunshine fair. ~ Lilian Whiting
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Lilian Whiting
One cultivates spaciousness or awareness which allows you to acknowledge the emotions and see them as part of the human condition. Emotions are like subtle thought forms and they all arise in response to something outside yourself. They are all reactions. You cultivate a quietness in yourself that watches these emotions rising and falling and passing away. ~ Ram Dass
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Ram Dass
Whatever a man loves he inevitably clings to, and in order not to lose it he rejects everything that keeps him from it. So he who loves God cultivates pure prayer, driving out every passion that keeps him from it. He who drives out self-love, the mother of the passions, will with God's help easily rid himself of the rest, such as anger, irritation, rancor and so on. But he who is dominated by self-love is overpowered by the other passions, even against his will. Self-love is the passion of attachment to the body. ~ Maximus The Confessor
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Maximus The Confessor
Happy he who far from business, like the primitive are of mortals, cultivates with his own oxen the fields of his fathers, free from all anxieties of gain. ~ Horace
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Horace
The Pashtun tribes are always engaged in private or public war. Every man is a warrior, a politician and a theologian Every large house is a real feudal fortress ... Eve ry family cultivates its vendetta; every clan, its feud ... Nothing is ever forgotten and very few debts are left unpaid. ~ Winston Churchill
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Winston Churchill
Who is happy? This is a person, who has a healthy body, is dowered with peace of mind and cultivates his talents. ~ Thales
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Thales
Hence the saying: The enlightened ruler lays his plans well ahead; the good general cultivates his resources. ~ Sun Tzu
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Sun Tzu
To view an object in the proper light we must stand away from it. The study of the classical literatures gives the aloofness which cultivates insight. In learning to live with peoples and civilizations that have long ceased to be alive, we gain a vantage point, acquire an enlargement and elevation of thought, which enable us to study with a more impartial and liberal mind the condition of the society around us. ~ John Lancaster Spalding
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by John Lancaster Spalding
Don't ya'll have anything better to do than to mess with Myles?" she asked. "Sadly, Mom, they don't," Myles said. It's the only respite they have from their monotonous, inconsequential tedium of an existence." Amir's eyes widened. "Duck, Pop! He's gonna big word us to death." Amir lifted his forearm. "Thesaurus-shields up! ~ Marcus Major
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Marcus Major
America is the original version of modernity. We are the dubbed or subtitled version. America ducks the question of origins; it cultivates no origin or mythical authenticity; it has no past and no founding truth. Having known no primitive accumulation of time, it lives in a perpetual present. ~ Jean Baudrillard
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Jean Baudrillard
The ultimate lesson games give is not about gratification and reward, nor about media and technology, nor about art and design. It is a lesson about modesty, attention, and care. Play cultivates humility, for it requires us to treat things as they are rather than as we wish them to be. If we let it, play can be the secret to contentment. Not because it provides happiness or pleasure - although it certainly can - but because it helps us pursue a greater respect for the things, people, and situations around us. ~ Ian Bogost
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Ian Bogost
Whoever cultivates the golden mean avoids both the poverty of a hovel and the envy of a palace. ~ Horace
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Horace
In all its myriad manifestations, the language of anti-Semitism through the ages is a dictionary of non-sequiturs and antonyms, a thesaurus of illogic and inconsistency. ~ Paul Johnson
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Paul Johnson
The writer cultivates, extends, raises and inflates his imagination, sure that this is his destiny, his usefulness, his contribution to the understanding of good and evil. As he inflates his imagination he inflates his capacity for evil. ~ John Cheever
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by John Cheever
The first thing brought forth by the study of any religion, ancient or modern, is that it is based upon Fear, born of it, fed by it - and that it cultivates the source from which its nourishment is derived. ~ Upton Sinclair
Cultivates Thesaurus quotes by Upton Sinclair
You have to remember one thing about the will of the people: it wasn't that long ago that we were swept away by the Macarena. ~ Jon Stewart
