Pliny the Elder once said that the Romans, when they couldn't make a building beautiful, made it big. The practice continues to be popular: If we can't do it well, we make it larger. We add dollars to our income, rooms to our houses, activities to our schedules, appointments to our calendars. And the quality of life diminishes with each addition. On the other hand, every time that we retrieve a part of our life from the crowd and respond to God's call to us, we are that much more ourselves, more human. Every time we reject the habits of the crowd and practice the disciplines of faith, we become a little more alive. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
I am carrying out my plan, so long formulated, of keeping a journal. What I most keenly wish is not to forget that I am writing for myself alone. Thus I shall always tell the truth, I hope, and thus I shall improve myself. These pages will reproach me for my changes of mind. ~ Eugene Delacroix
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Delacroix
I'd always thought that being seen was about what people perceived with their eyes. But by the time the Eugene Field Memorial Middle School made the fall trip to the aquarium, I, Suzy Swanson, had disappeared entirely. Being seen is more about the ears than the eyes, it turns out. ~ Ali Benjamin
Eugene Grasset quotes by Ali Benjamin
Jesus didn't debase the holy into the secular; He infused the secular with the holy. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
Kick him in the balls before he kicks you in yours ~ Eugene B. Sledge
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene B. Sledge
The pupil of a goat's eye is elongate like a cat's, but if you look closely you'll see that it's in the horizontal position, and if you look closer still you'll see that it's less gracefully shaped, more of a ragged slot, dirty yellow. And you'll see that the white of a goat's eye is all black. ~ Eugene Marten
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Marten
Whenever the communists are under fire, it [the term "red-baiter"] has served to divert attention from the subject matter to futile discussion of personal motives, the critic's private life and other deliberate tricks of befuddlement. ~ Eugene Lyons
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Lyons
How can this world, which is so beautiful, include so much horror? ~ Eugene Delacroix
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Delacroix
During the rests - pray. ~ Eugene Ormandy
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Ormandy
What use having a great depth of field, if there is not an adequate depth of feeling? ~ W. Eugene Smith
Eugene Grasset quotes by W. Eugene Smith
The people of Birmingham also have souls. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
The question is, what happens when we as human beings confront a world that is radically unhuman, impersonal, and even indifferent to the human? What happens to the concept of politics once one confronts the possibility that the world only reveals its hiddenness, in spite of the attempts to render it as a world-for-us, either via theology (sovereign God, sovereign king) or via science (the organismic analogy of the state)? In the face of politics, this unresponsiveness of the world is a condition for which, arguably, we do not yet have a language. ~ Eugene Thacker
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Thacker
What have I done, Obie?"

Obie flung his hand in the air, the gesture encompassing all the rotten things that had occur under Archie's command, at Archie's direction. The ruined kids, the capsized hopes. Renault last fall and poor Tubs Casper and all the others including even the faculty. Like Brother Eugene.

"You know what you've done, Archie. I don't need to draw up a list-"

"You blame me for everything, right, Obie? You and Carter and all the others. Archie Costello, the bad guy. The villain. Archie, the bastard. Trinity would be such a beautiful place without Archie Costello. Right, Obie? But it's not me, Obie, it's not me...."

"Not you?" Obie cried, fury gathering in his throat, his chest, his guts. "What the hell do you mean, not you? This could have been a beautiful place to be, Archie. A beautiful time for all of us. Christ, who else, if not you?"

"Do you really want to know who?"

"Okay, who then?" Impatient with his crap, the old Archie crap.

"It's you, Obie. You and Carter and Bunting and Leon and everybody. But especially you, Obie. Nobody forced you to do anything, buddy. Nobody made you join the Vigils. Nobody twisted your arm to make you secretary of the Vigils. Nobody pain you to keep a notebook with all that crap about the students, all their weaknesses, soft points. The notebook made your job easier, didn't it, Obie? And what was your job? Finding the victims. You found them, Obie. Yo ~ Robert Cormier
Eugene Grasset quotes by Robert Cormier
We have not the time to take our time. ~ Eugene Ionesco
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Ionesco
The only living life is in the past and future - the present is an interlude - strange interlude in which we call on past and future to bear witness that we are living. ~ Eugene O'Neill
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene O'Neill
It is only education and understanding of the past that teaches us not to repeat history. ~ Eugene Jarecki
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Jarecki
Church is the textured context in which we grow up in Christ to maturity. But church is difficult. Sooner or later, though, if we are serious about growing up in Christ, we have to deal with church. I say sooner. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
His track record of pragmatism, depth and candor all speak to a person who would find the Tea Party simplistic, opportunistic and misguided. Reagan was surrounded by some very smart people who gave him very sound advice. They were not wondering where certain countries are on the map. ~ Eugene Jarecki
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Jarecki
The word 'christian' means different things to different people. To one person it means a stiff, upright, inflexible way of life, colorless and unbending. To another it means a risky, surprised-filled adventure, lived tiptoe at the edge of expectation ... If we get our information from the biblical material, there is no doubt that the Christian life is a dancing, leaping, daring life. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
A fine suggestion, a sketch with great feeling, can be as expressive as the most finished product. ~ Eugene Delacroix
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Delacroix
Every day I review the ways he works, I try not to miss a trick. I feel put back together, and I'm watching my step. GOD rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
We underestimate God and we overestimate evil. We don't see what God is doing and conclude that he is doing nothing. We see everything that evil is doing and think it is in control of everyone. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
When I did 'Bumble-ardy,' I was so intensely aware of death. Eugene, my friend and partner, was dying here in the house when I did 'Bumble-ardy'. I did 'Bumble-ardy' to save myself. I did not want to die with him. I wanted to live, as any human being does. ~ Maurice Sendak
Eugene Grasset quotes by Maurice Sendak
We are all looking for something of extraordinary importance whose nature we have forgotten; I am writing the memoirs of a man who has lost his memory. ~ Eugene Ionesco
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Ionesco
I was set free! I dissolved in the sea, became white sails and flying spray, became beauty and rhythm, became moonlight and the ship and the high dim-starred sky! I belonged, without past or future, within peace and unity and a wild joy, within something greater than my own life, or the life of Man, to Life itself!.. And several other times in my life, when I was swimming far out, or lying alone on a beach, I have had the same experience, became the sun, the hot sand, green seaweed anchored to a rock, swaying in the tide. Like a saint's vision of beatitude. Like the veil of things as they seem drawn back by an unseen hand. For a second you see, and seeing the secret, you are the secret. For a second there is meaning! Then the hand lets the veil fall and you are alone, lost in the fog again, and you stumble on towards nowhere for no good reason. ~ Eugene O'Neill
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene O'Neill
Down in Mobile, they're all crazy, because the Gulf Coast is the kingdom of monkeys, the land of clowns, ghosts and musicians, and Mobile is sweet lunacy's county seat. ~ Eugene F. Walter
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene F. Walter
Sloth is most often evidenced in busyness ... in frantic running around, trying to be everything to everyone, and then having no time to listen or pray, no time to become the person who is doing these things. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
As long as the differences and diversities of mankind exist, democracy must allow for compromise, for accommodation, and for the recognition of differences. ~ Eugene McCarthy
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene McCarthy
Many people have delusions of grandeur but you're deluded by triviality. ~ Eugene Ionesco
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Ionesco
We cannot be too careful about the words we use; we start out using them and they end up using us. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
Today, we are on a path of decay. We are seeing the book close on five decades of accomplishment as the leader in human space exploration. ~ Eugene Cernan
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Cernan
If I tell these private thoughts of mine, it is because I know they are not mine alone, and that practically everyone is trying to say the same things and that the writer is only a man who says out loud what other people think or whisper. ~ Eugene Ionesco
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Ionesco
All men die in solitude; all values are degraded in a state of misery: that is what Shakespeare tells me ~ Eugene Ionesco
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Ionesco
There's nothing sexier than a girl who's like, 'I know who FDR is, I know about the New Deal, I'm going to give you a new deal.' and then, over a period of years, she structures her sex acts in such a way that they save the economy. ~ Eugene Mirman
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Mirman
We come out of Jewish-refugee, Holocaust stock, which means that our predecessors fled and we learned that systems of power are vulnerable to corruption and can treat the defenseless in a destructive fashion. ~ Eugene Jarecki
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Jarecki
The time and intelligence that our ancestors spent on understanding the sovereignty revealed in Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are directed by our contemporaries in affirming and validating the sovereignty of our needs, wants, and feelings. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
I laugh at weird times - at good and bad things alike. I laugh simply when things are incongruous. It's not necessarily a judgment - as it is noticing the oddity of something. ~ Eugene Mirman
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Mirman
I'm in charge of all this - I run this universe! ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
Repentance is a realization that what God wants from you and what you want from God are not going to be achieved by doing the same old things, thinking the same old thoughts. Repentance is a decision to follow Jesus Christ and become his pilgrim in the path of peace. Repentance is the most practical of all words and the most practical of all acts. It is a feet-on-the-ground-kind-of-word. It puts a person in touch with the reality that God creates. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
Would the war dehumanize me so that I, too, could "field trip" enemy dead with such nonchalance? ~ Eugene B. Sledge
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene B. Sledge
The spirits are an age-old theme, a story from darkest history, and therefore a presentational anchor that can be used with many different magic tricks. ~ Eugene Burger
Eugene Grasset quotes by Eugene Burger
I started writing for the theatre because I hated it. ~ Eugene Ionesco
