The difference between an ordinary life and an extraordinary life is only a matter of perspective. Pull the blinds. Look around you. It is a mad, mad world and you do not require ten digit bank accounts to immerse yourself in it. Travel down dusty roads without a destination in mind. Climb a mountain and scream out into the void. Kiss the hell out of a stranger. Skinny dip in a lake. Get lost and lose yourself (they are two separate things). Explore the wilderness (especially the one within). Think less of destiny and more of the moment right here. Because when you are old and ill with your loved ones around you, fame won't matter, nor will the extent of your wealth. You are the sum of the stories you can tell. ~ Beau Taplin
Destiny quotes by Beau Taplin
There is no doubt something will be done sooner or later to enable us to put on a house every day, just as we put on clothes or choose a book to read or a theater to go to, like choosing a day to be lived, within the limits grated by other destinies or chances. ~ Ettore Sottsass
Destiny quotes by Ettore Sottsass
It [Communism] is not new. It is, in fact, man's second oldest faith. Its promise was whispered in the first days of the Creation under the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil: "Ye shall be as gods." It is the great alternative faith of mankind. Like all great faiths, its force derives from a simple vision. Other ages have had great visions. They have always been different versions of the same vision: the vision of God and man's relationship to God. The Communist vision is the vision of Man without God.
It is the vision of man's mind displacing God as the creative intelligence of the world. It is the vision of man's liberated mind, by the sole force of its rational intelligence, redirecting man's destiny and reorganizing man's life and the world. It is the vision of man, once more the central figure of the Creation, not because God made man in his image, but because man's mind makes him the most intelligent of the animals. Copernicus and his successors displaced man as the central fact of the universe by proving that the earth was not the central star of the universe. Communism restores man to his sovereignty by the simple method of denying God. ~ Whittaker Chambers
Destiny quotes by Whittaker Chambers
I think that people who live in cultures without quite so much privilege, opportunity or grandiosity have a little bit more respect for the workings of destiny, and the limitations that people can find themselves in through no fault of their own. ~ Elizabeth Gilbert
Destiny quotes by Elizabeth Gilbert
In the scale of the destinies, brawn will never weigh so mach as brain. ~ James Russell Lowell
Destiny quotes by James Russell Lowell
Every day is predetermined by God. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Destiny quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Duny," said Geralt seriously, "Calanthe, Pavetta. And you, righteous knight Tuirseach, future king of Cintra. In order to become a witcher, you have to be born in the shadow of destiny, and very few are born like that. That's why there are so few of us. We're growing old, dying, without anyone to pass our knowledge, our gifts, on to. We lack successors. And this world is full of Evil which waits for the day none of us are left." "Geralt," whispered Calanthe. "Yes, you're not wrong, queen. Duny! You will give me that which you already have but do not know. I'll return to Cintra in six years to see if destiny has been kind to me. ~ Andrzej Sapkowski
Destiny quotes by Andrzej Sapkowski
It's bad enough when people I know fuck with my life, but when pretentious bass players interfere with my destiny, then I really get pissed. ~ Tiffanie DeBartolo
Destiny quotes by Tiffanie DeBartolo
Employment wastes the productive time of our lives ~ Sunday Adelaja
Destiny quotes by Sunday Adelaja
I think the biggest achievement of my life is that I followed my heart when I knew what it wanted, and had faith in destiny when I didn't know what it held. ~ Mansi Laus Deo
Destiny quotes by Mansi Laus Deo
It's still strange. ~ Arthur K. Flam
Destiny quotes by Arthur K. Flam
Sometimes, when the gods aren't looking and destiny loses its way, even good people get a taste of good luck in their lives. ~ Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Destiny quotes by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
The most amazing journey on earth is the journey of oneself. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Destiny quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Every people should be the originators of their own destiny, the projectors of their own schemes, and creators of the events that lead to their destiny
the consummation of their own desires. ~ Martin Delany
Destiny quotes by Martin Delany
Everyone has to work out his own destiny. - Goethe ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Destiny quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Endless longing; a face you'd known since childhood, since birth almost; a body that moved as though it were your own. These were things you never spoke of, things you never hoped for; things you could never admit to. Things you'd die for, and die of. ~ Elizabeth Hand
Destiny quotes by Elizabeth Hand
And these men, for whom life has no repose, live at times in their rare moments of happiness with such strength and indescribable beauty, the spray of their moment's happiness is flung so high and dazzling over the wide sea of suffering, that the light of it, spreading its radiance, touches others too with its enchantment. Thus, like a precious, fleeting foam over the sea of suffering arise all those works of art, in which a single individual lifts himself for an hour so high above his personal destiny that his happiness shines like a star and appears to all who see it as something eternal and as a happiness of their own. ~ Hermann Hesse
Destiny quotes by Hermann Hesse
You don't need validation or approval from anyone but yourself. Even if the entire world goes against, disagrees with or attempts to crush you, stand up for what you believe in, and stand up alone if you have to! It's better to die while living your own truth than to live in the truth of another. Lord Krishna in the holy Bhagavad Gita pointed this out when he said;

"It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection."

Integrity is the key to freedom. It's only your own truth that can 'set you free.' It's perfectly fine if your truth doesn't match that of others because the experience of physical reality is a completely subjective one. It doesn't make either of you wrong, as long as you're both being true to yourselves, that's all that matters. ~ Craig Krishna
Destiny quotes by Craig Krishna
What's in a fairytale? Shadows and light, good and true, vile and ugly, frightening and comforting, heroes and heroines who know that belief in their own magic spurs them on. It is their own faith and courage as they reach for an unwritten Destiny that grants their deepest hopes and makes dreams, as if by magic, come true. ~ Suzy Davies
Destiny quotes by Suzy  Davies
Hanging and marriage, you know, go by destiny. ~ George Farquhar
Destiny quotes by George Farquhar
Perhaps the forces of winged retribution. The prophet Elijah being fed to the ravens. Like Baida, I have killed my three pigeons.'

'Two,' Adam said.

'Two died instead of Vishnevetsky. One died instead of my brother. Long ago. Attar, the Persian poet, saw the destiny of souls as a flight of birds across the seven valleys of Seeking, Love, Knowledge, Independence, Unity, Stupefaction and Annihilation, before at last being lost in the divine Ocean and thenceforth happy. A charming, if sterile, conceit. Next time, the bird may escape,' Lymond said. 'Happy pigeon. Next time, the archer may die. ~ Dorothy Dunnett
Destiny quotes by Dorothy Dunnett
Abraham did not know where he was going immediately, but he knew where he was going ultimately. He did not know the Whither but he knew the Whom. He believed God, and, being sure of his destiny, he did not worry about his destination. ~ Vance Havner
Destiny quotes by Vance Havner
I used to look out the window of my bedroom as a kid, and there were these stars that, in my mind, made a big "A" in the sky. I thought my destiny was to go there. ~ Helen Mirren
Destiny quotes by Helen Mirren
Never become bitter just because you were rejected by men ~ Sunday Adelaja
Destiny quotes by Sunday Adelaja
Who's to know what makes a bird wake up and decide to change its song? It was written that our world would change and it changed. ~ Eliot Pattison
Destiny quotes by Eliot Pattison
I believe in signs ... what we need to learn is always there before us, we just have to look around us with respect & attention to discover where God is leading us and which step we should take. When we are on the right path, we follow the signs, and if we occasionally stumble, the Divine comes to our aid, preventing us from making mistakes. ~ Paulo Coelho
Destiny quotes by Paulo Coelho
Faulty mindset reveals a great deception regarding the destiny of every believer ~ Sunday Adelaja
Destiny quotes by Sunday Adelaja
There is never a restless night for the dark soul. They sleep well within a destiny sealed and accepted in trade for the spoils of the earth ~ Carl Henegan
Destiny quotes by Carl Henegan
In a toxic system, the toxic minister sets himself or herself up as having a special destiny or mission that can be performed by no one else. This special anointing or calling is often nothing more than the pathological need to be valued or esteemed. It also takes some of the power that should be attributed to God and gives it to the toxic minister. It is a way to usurp God's authority, and it is a way to discredit anyone who disagrees with the direction of the ministry. ~ Stephen Arterburn
Destiny quotes by Stephen Arterburn
A dream is such a driving force, it drives you to your future, to your purpose, to your destiny so you can't afford to let go to your dream. ~ Euginia Herlihy
Destiny quotes by Euginia Herlihy
It's better to have no control and be in the center of God's plan for your life than have total control and be completely lost to your destiny. ~ Alisa Hope Wagner
Destiny quotes by Alisa Hope Wagner
You work with some people, you see a spark in them and you can't help praising them. But everyone has their own destiny. No one can make anyone. Who reaches where and when, is all written. ~ Rani Mukerji
Destiny quotes by Rani Mukerji
We are the unknown, he says, and you will join us. ~ Andrew Crumey
Destiny quotes by Andrew Crumey
When the destiny of a nation is in a woman's bedroom, the best place for the historian is in the antechamber. - CHARLES-AUGUSTIN SAINTE-BEUVE ~ Eleanor Herman
Destiny quotes by Eleanor Herman
When I see memories, I see the past.
When I see thoughts, I see the present.
When I see intentions, I see the future.

When I see regret, I see the past.
When I see hope, I see the present.
When I see expectation, I see the future.

When I see habits, I see the past.
When I see actions, I see the present.
When I see character, I see the future.

When I see karma, I see the past.

When I see wisdom, I see the future.

When I see elders, I see the past.
When I see adults, I see the present.
When I see children, I see the future. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Destiny quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo
Blessed are the people whose leaders can look destiny in the eye without flinching but also without attempting to play God ~ Henry Kissinger
Destiny quotes by Henry Kissinger
Once your baby arrives, the world is no more the same than you are. Because from our very bodies we add to the collective human destiny. Our deepest urge is always toward life, to wholeness and well being. ~ Claire Fontaine
Destiny quotes by Claire Fontaine
Destiny has got the rope round my neck – and I feel it. ~ Wilkie Collins
Destiny quotes by Wilkie Collins
The Fates are here because of supernal anger, celestial imbalance, and arrogance of men and gods that must be curbed. ~ Janet Morris
Destiny quotes by Janet Morris
Mere hope isn't enough to change destiny. One must act. ~ Ogwo David Emenike
Destiny quotes by Ogwo David Emenike
That's just the way it goes when you're going to meet your destiny. Something comes over you and it keeps your heart so stirred that nothing seems impossible… Well, except for sleep, or taking your mind off of the future." -Kearney ~ Brittany L. Engels
Destiny quotes by Brittany L. Engels
Eventually we must leave Earth-at least a certain number of our progeny must as our sun approaches the end of its solar life cycle. But just as terrestrial explorers have always led the way for settlers, this will also happen extraterrestrially. Earth is our cradle, not our final destiny. ~ Edgar Mitchell
Destiny quotes by Edgar Mitchell
Life is how you brew it. Wake up, you have a story to tell. Don't chase vain glory, your story will tell it. You owe it to yourself to write the lines of your story in the ink of purpose! ~ Israelmore Ayivor
Destiny quotes by Israelmore Ayivor
Do not cry for me, Azrael. Do not waste your tears. You made your decision. And this is mine. Sacrifice seems to be my destiny. A funny thing for a selfish man, isn't it? They always called me weak back then ... ~ Melissa De La Cruz
Destiny quotes by Melissa De La Cruz
One day you will be the one called Master (Naruto). You'll be the one to treat others to ramen. We can't stay kids forever.
- Shikamaru Nara (Naruto) ~ Masashi Kishimoto
Destiny quotes by Masashi Kishimoto
Humans are the world's greatest treasure ~ Sunday Adelaja
Destiny quotes by Sunday Adelaja
Chronology is not destiny ~ Donald Michael Platt
Destiny quotes by Donald Michael Platt
She believed that people were captains of their own destiny. He agreed, as long as it was understood that every captain was destined to go down with the ship, and there wasn't a damned thing you could do about it. ~ Daryl Gregory
Destiny quotes by Daryl Gregory
So much depends not on how awkward destiny is, but rather on how openly it is embraced. ~ John O'Donohue
Destiny quotes by John O'Donohue
You get that one chance; and damn it, you've got to take it! If there's one lesson I know I will take with me for eternity, its that there are those things that might happen only once, those chances that come walking down the street, strolling out of a café; if you don't let go and take them, they really could get away! We can get so washed out with a mindset of entitlement– the universe will do everything for us to ensure our happiness– that we forget why we came here! We came here to grab, to take, to give, to have! Not to wait! Nobody came here to wait! So, what makes anyone think that destiny will keep on knocking over and over again? It could, but what if it doesn't? You go and you take the chance that you get; even if it makes you look stupid, insane, or whorish! Because it just might not come back again. You could wait a lifetime to see if it will...but I don't think you should. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Destiny quotes by C. JoyBell C.
third understanding of the imago Dei also gained popularity in the twentieth century, though it too had historical predecessors. In the early part of the twentieth century, Karl Barth argued that the central defining feature of the imago Dei is human relationality. Hence, this view is called the relational view of the imago Dei. Humans are created in the image of the Triune God and thus are meant to find their essence and destiny in community with one another and with God The following three essays offer arguments in favor of each of these views. ~ Gregory A. Boyd
Destiny quotes by Gregory A. Boyd
Negative emotions, such as the feelings of hatred, meanness, low self-esteem and confidence, and pessimism, create an unpleasant person and a bleak destiny. ~ Auliq Ice
Destiny quotes by Auliq Ice
What is your probability of winning twice the New Jersey lottery? One in 17 trillion. Yet it happened to Evelyn Adams, whom the reader might guess should feel particularly chosen by destiny. Using the method we developed above, Harvard's Percy Diaconis and Frederick Mosteller estimated at 30 to 1 the probability that someone, somewhere, in a totally unspecified way, gets so lucky! ~ Fooled By Randomness Nassim Taleb
Destiny quotes by Fooled By Randomness Nassim Taleb
Determinism gives you the freedom to do whatever you like. ~ Raheel Farooq
Destiny quotes by Raheel Farooq
You are Destined for Greatness. The enemy seeks to destroy your hopes and dreams. It is Important that you Activate Your Faith. Believe with All Your Heart. Nothing is Impossible for God. You shall Fulfill Your Destiny. ~ Amaka Imani Nkosazana
Destiny quotes by Amaka Imani Nkosazana
Hard times prepares the willing soul for define destiny. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Destiny quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
How bitter they cry in need, those who refuse to help others in trouble! ~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Destiny quotes by Bangambiki Habyarimana
The eternal destiny of human beings will be measured by how much or how little solidarity we have displayed with the hungry, the thirsty, the naked, and the oppressed. In the end we will be judged in terms of love. ~ Leonardo Boff
Destiny quotes by Leonardo Boff
The difference was principally in the invisible places toward which their respective hearts were turned. They dreamed of Cairo with its autonomous government, its army, its newspapers and its cinema, while he, facing in the same direction, dreamed just a little beyond Cairo, across the Bhar El Hamar to Mecca. They thought in terms of grievances, censorship, petitions and reforms; he, like any good Moslem who knows only the tenets of his religion, in terms of destiny and divine justice. If the word 'independence' was uttered, they saw platoons of Moslem soldiers marching through streets were all the signs were written in Arabic script, they saw factories and power plants rising from the fields; he saw skies of flame, the wings of avenging angels, and total destruction. ~ Paul Bowles
Destiny quotes by Paul Bowles
Some things in life are purely unexplainable, no rhyme or reason, completely unforeseen and unexpected. Call it fate, call it destiny, call it whatever the hell you want; sometimes crazy shit just happens. Simple as that. ~ Erin Noelle
Destiny quotes by Erin Noelle
Death is the destiny of every man. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Destiny quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
In a composite Nation like ours, made up of almost every variety of the human family, there should be, as before the Law, no rich, no poor, no high, no low, no black, no white, but one country, one citizenship equal rights and a common destiny for all.
A government that cannot or does not protect the humblest citizen in his right to life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness, should be reformed or overthrown, without delay. ~ Frederick Douglass
Destiny quotes by Frederick Douglass
You could be born into love or rejection, into want or abundance,although life itself was certainly not to blame. The vital principle did its job when it united egg and sperm; it was people who created the conditions in which life followed its course. And human beings seemed marked by destiny to trample one another, to make life difficult for one another, to kill one another. ~ Gioconda Belli
Destiny quotes by Gioconda Belli
Destiny is just the inevitable result of choice, from the choices that came before us to the choices we make. They are a river that can only flow in one direction. ~ Alex London
Destiny quotes by Alex London
Your destiny is now your own to forge as best as you may. ~ Raymond E. Feist
Destiny quotes by Raymond E. Feist
Don't let fear block God's destiny for you. ~ T.D. Jakes
Destiny quotes by T.D. Jakes
The collective disease of humanity is that people are so engrossed in what happens, so hypnotized by the world of fluctuating forms, so absorbed in the content of their lives, they have forgotten the essence, that which is beyond content, beyond form, beyond thought. They are so consumed by time that they have forgotten eternity, which is their origin, their home, their destiny. Eternity is the living reality of who you are. ~ Eckhart Tolle
Destiny quotes by Eckhart Tolle
The human in what it is objectively ever since its beginning is two, two who are different. Each part of what constitutes the unity of the human species corresponds to a proper being and a proper Being, to an identity of one's own. In order to carry out the destiny of humanity, the man-human and the woman-human each have to fulfill what they are and at the same time realize the unity that they constitute. ~ Luce Irigaray
Destiny quotes by Luce Irigaray
Your life and destiny are determined to a large extent by your participation in the outcome. ~ Paul Stanley
Destiny quotes by Paul Stanley
Finally, if she were to accept this capital now, it was in no way as payment for her maidenly disgrace, for which she was not to blame, but simply as recompense for a corrupted destiny. ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Destiny quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Ya gotta do what ya gotta do. ~ Sylvester Stallone
Destiny quotes by Sylvester Stallone
In life there are no Unities, but three Incomprehensibles: Destiny, Man, and Woman. ~ Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie
Destiny quotes by Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie
The vicious circle of life is employment ~ Sunday Adelaja
Destiny quotes by Sunday Adelaja
To be free ... to walk the good American earth as equal citizens, to live without fear, to enjoy the fruits of our toil, to give our children every opportunity in life
that dream which we have held so long in our hearts is today the destiny that we hold in our hands. ~ Paul Robeson
Destiny quotes by Paul Robeson
In the deepest hour of the night, confess to yourself that you would die if you were forbidden to write. And look deep into your heart where it spreads its roots, the answer, and ask yourself, must I write? ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Destiny quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
Whether you're Huguenot or Catholic or Jewish or gypsy or short or have dark skin- or blue skin. Everyone is different. Each person has his or her own soul and is master of his or her own destiny. ~ Liz Braswell
Destiny quotes by Liz Braswell
What destiny is there, but to sense, observe, merge, re-emerge,
Empty, yet filled, spreading everywhere, inside, outside, in,
Pulsing, fluctuating, breathing as part of one being,
Whispering, feeling, reflecting, flowing between hot and cold,
Mineral and plant, dark and light, love and fear, new and old. ~ Jay Woodman
Destiny quotes by Jay Woodman
There but for the... good choices I've made, genetics, psychological conditioning, and 10K random elements, go I. ~ Daniel Ionson
Destiny quotes by Daniel Ionson
Live from a place of love. It conquers all that is evil. ~ Lee Bice-Matheson
Destiny quotes by Lee Bice-Matheson
In order to reach his destiny and have dominion over the earth, man has to get wisdom. ~ Sunday Adelaja
Destiny quotes by Sunday Adelaja
The wind god Favonius had warned him in Croatia: If you let your anger rule you … your fate will be even sadder than mine. But how could his fate be anything but sad? Even if he lived through this quest, he would have to leave both camps forever. That was the only way he would find peace. He wished there was another option – a choice that didn't hurt like the waters of the Phlegethon – but he couldn't see one. ~ Rick Riordan
Destiny quotes by Rick Riordan
Nothing voiced - all hisses, a serpent, vengeful, relentless," they raved. Others attested to languages long dead to the world, though of course known to their reporters. "The man-shaped light shall not deliver you," it allegedly declared, and, "Flames were always your destiny, my children." Its children - Is it worth anyone's while now to journey out those starfish corridors where they suffer, each behind his door of oak and iron, the penance they bear as a condition of that awful witness? My ~ Thomas Pynchon
Destiny quotes by Thomas Pynchon
Everything that happens, happens as it should, and if you observe carefully, you will find this to be so. ~ Marcus Aurelius
Destiny quotes by Marcus Aurelius
The key to your happiness is to own your slippers, own who you are, own how you look, own your family, own the talents you have, and own the ones you don't. If you keep saying your slippers aren't yours, then you'll die searching, you'll die bitter, always feeling you were promised more. Not only our actions, but also our omissions, become our destiny. ~ Abraham Verghese
Destiny quotes by Abraham Verghese
For we need this thing wilderness far more than it needs us. Civilizations (like glaciers) come and go, but the mountain and its forest continue the course of creation's destiny. And in this we mere humans can take part-by fitting our civilization to the mountain. ~ Benton MacKaye
Destiny quotes by Benton MacKaye
Sometimes I look out the window out into the big, bright world and stare at people. Passers-by who live their ordinary lives and experience a full range of extraoridnary emotions. I stare at them for minutes, sometimes hours and then it makes me think, it makes me wonder. Are there people who are born healthy, who are born perfectly normal yet there is something wrong with them? Something nobody feels, nobody understands or questions, something that no one has ever even heard of? What if there are people among us who are capable of truly falling for someone, who are - in all biological, emotional, hormonal, chemical, philosophical senses - capable of loving someone with romantic love but no one in this wide world is capable of requiting that? Is it possible? Is it the fault of that person? Is it perhaps in the genes, the very DNA of someone? Is it perhaps destiny? And those passers-by go along happily without knowing anyone has ever asked something like this and they will probably never think about anything such because there might be only one person in this world who has to experience the feeling, the feeling that is so deeply rooted in a life alone. ~ Daniel Gyorki
Destiny quotes by Daniel Gyorki
Despite everything that has befallen us, do we not continue to hold the destiny of this shattered and magnificent nation, together with the future of all our children-girls and boys alike-in the palm of our hands? ~ Greg Mortenson
Destiny quotes by Greg Mortenson
One of the significant facts about the moment of birth is that it is an unconscious moment. No one ever knows when he is being born that the event is actually taking place, and sometimes we don't find out about it until quite a long time afterward. Sometimes, we never do really find out that we have been born. So frequently, we don't know why we were born; we don't know where we came from; we don't know what the purpose of life is; nor do we understand the possibilities of our godly destiny. ~ Sterling W. Sill
Destiny quotes by Sterling W. Sill
I sat and reflected on the situation I had faced
I needed answers to the questions I still, didnt have the courage to ask ...
But I need to know,
How was this to be apart of my destiny? ~ Nikki Rowe
Destiny quotes by Nikki Rowe
Plato spoke of the Sisters of Fate on the last 3 pages of his book, "The Republic" when he said: "Then the Sisters of Fate take all of our choices and weave them on their loom into the fabric of destiny. Hear the word of Lachesis, the daughter of Necessity. Mortal souls, behold a new cycle of life and mortality. Your genius will not be allotted to you, but you will choose your genius; and let him who draws the first lot have the first choice, and the life which he chooses shall be his destiny. Virtue is free, and as a man honors' or dishonors her he will have more or less of her; the responsibility is with the chooser - God is justified" [Quote from Plato's Republic written 360BCE In the Public Domain] ~ D.M. Hoover
Destiny quotes by D.M. Hoover
When destiny is calling even the deaf can hear him. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Destiny quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo
There are but two future verbs which man may appropriate confidently and without pride: "I shall suffer," and "I shall die. ~ Sophie Swetchine
Destiny quotes by Sophie Swetchine
Sometimes your destiny takes you to dark places where you'd rather not be, but destiny, as they say, is destiny. ~ Jasper Fforde
Destiny quotes by Jasper Fforde
The portraits, of more historical than artistic interest, had gone; and tapestry, full of the blue and bronze of peacocks, fell over the doors, and shut out all history and activity untouched with beauty and peace; and now when I looked at my Crevelli and pondered on the rose in the hand of the Virgin, wherein the form was so delicate and precise that it seemed more like a thought than a flower, or at the grey dawn and rapturous faces of my Francesca, I knew all a Christian's ecstasy without his slavery to rule and custom; when I pondered over the antique bronze gods and goddesses, which I had mortgaged my house to buy, I had all a pagan's delight in various beauty and without his terror at sleepless destiny and his labour with many sacrifices; and I had only to go to my bookshelf, where every book was bound in leather, stamped with intricate ornament, and of a carefully chosen colour: Shakespeare in the orange of the glory of the world, Dante in the dull red of his anger, Milton in the blue grey of his formal calm; and I could experience what I would of human passions without their bitterness and without satiety. I had gathered about me all gods because I believed in none, and experienced every pleasure because I gave myself to none, but held myself apart, individual, indissoluble, a mirror of polished steel: I looked in the triumph of this imagination at the birds of Hera, glowing in the firelight as though they were wrought of jewels; and to my mind, for which symbolism wa ~ W.B. Yeats
Destiny quotes by W.B. Yeats
Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. Manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. Consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits. Acknowledge and watch your habits, for they shall become your values. Understand and embrace your values, for they become your destiny. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Destiny quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
It's good to remember that success may be just beyond the next failure, and you'll get there, not because you're destined to, but because you're determined to. ~ Steve Goodier
Destiny quotes by Steve Goodier
Always do your best to be yourself. Learn to listen to your inner-voice. This is your true authenticity; this is who you really are. Self-discovery of your inner-self is the path to your destiny ... ~ James A. Murphy
Destiny quotes by James A. Murphy
Define your destiny and drive with abandon! ~ Gary Westfal
Destiny quotes by Gary Westfal
Life is the school, love is the lesson and relationships are assignments designed to further us into learning to live in a deeper state of love. ~ Kate McGahan
Destiny quotes by Kate McGahan
We discover God when we see Him in people ~ Sunday Adelaja
