If you possess a gentle spirit will move mountains. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Gentle Spirit quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
I don't want to control her; I just want to keep her. Her gentle spirit, her kind loveliness has become the center of my world and I'm not sure I know how to function anymore without it. ~ Emma Chase
Gentle Spirit quotes by Emma Chase
IN MEMORIAM: FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
She whom we love, our Lady of Compassion,
Can never die, for Love forbids her death.
Love has bent down in his old kindly fashion,
And breathed upon her his immortal breath.
On wounded soldiers, in their anguish lying,
Her gentle spirit shall descend like rain.
Where the white flag with the red cross is flying,
There shall she dwell, the vanquisher of pain. ~ Joyce Kilmer
Gentle Spirit quotes by Joyce Kilmer
In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit. ~ Anne Frank
Gentle Spirit quotes by Anne Frank
Yelling louder does not help me understand you any better! Don't be afraid of me. Come closer to me. Bring me your gentle spirit. Speak more slowly. Enunciate more clearly. Again! Please, try again. S-l-o-w down. Be kind to me. Be a safe place for me. See that I am a wounded animal, not a stupid animal. I am vulnerable and confused. Whatever my age, whatever my credentials, reach for me. Respect me. I am in here. Come find me. ~ Jill Bolte Taylor
Gentle Spirit quotes by Jill Bolte Taylor
Gentleness is not weakness. Just the opposite. Preserving a gentle spirit in a heartless world takes extraordinary courage, determination, and resilience. Do not underestimate the power of gentleness because gentleness is strength wrapped in peace, and therein lies the power to change the world. ~ L.R. Knost
Gentle Spirit quotes by L.R. Knost
I am saying this because I don't think there can be anything more aggravating and intolerable than to be ruined by an accident which might or night not have happened, by a fortuitous concatenation of circumstances which might have passed away like a cloud. For a man of education nothing can be more humiliating. - The Gentle Spirit ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Gentle Spirit quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Don't judge the gentle; their gentleness is stronger than your fears and angers. Don't judge those who have lost their gentleness; you haven't lived their lives. In all people, hope for the gentleness to return and see gentleness for the beauty that it is. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Gentle Spirit quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Sweet breathing Zephyrus did softly play,
A gentle spirit, that lightly did delay
Hot Titan's beams, which then did glister fair ~ Edmund Spenser
Gentle Spirit quotes by Edmund Spenser
...to have a quiet and gentle spirit--a call given to women--would not mean I had to abandon all that I am, limp along in life, silence my personality in the name of obedience, but instead it meant that I could authentically be the woman God made me as, while anchored in the truth and controlled by the Spirit. When led by Him, when wanting to place my rights above His honor, humility would place its hand over my heart, keeping it still and settled with peace until what was worth being said or done happened in love. Out of a deep wanting for what belonged to God to be recognized and respected. ~ Jackie Hill Perry
Gentle Spirit quotes by Jackie Hill Perry
I like someone who has a super gentle spirit and energy. I'm really gentle, and so I like a boy who will treat me that way. ~ Megan Fox
Gentle Spirit quotes by Megan Fox
The spirit is there in every boy; it has to be discovered and brought to light. ~ Robert Baden-Powell
Gentle Spirit quotes by Robert Baden-Powell
The Church is everywhere represented as one. It is one body, one family, one fold, one kingdom. It is one because pervaded by one Spirit. We are all baptized into one Spirit so as to become, says the apostle, on body. ~ Charles Hodge
Gentle Spirit quotes by Charles Hodge
He wrapped his hand around mine and moved it from his lips, laying a gentle kiss on my fingers as he did it. 'When I saw you on the television bleeding and hurt I knew you would not die, because I could feel how hurt you were, and I knew we had power to heal you and bring you safely home to me, to us, but it wasn't enough, ma petite.' He pressed my hand to his chest. 'I needed to feel this. I needed to touch your skin, kiss your lips, hold you as close as I could. I would survive your death physically, I believe there is enough power now for that, but my heart …' He raised my hand and kissed it. 'My heart, it beats for you, Anita Blake. If there were a way for us to marry without the other men in our lives feeling excluded, I would ask it of you. ~ Laurell K. Hamilton
Gentle Spirit quotes by Laurell K. Hamilton
I was a precocious actress in her eyes; she sincerely looked on me as a compound of virulent passions, mean spirit, and dangerous duplicity. ~ Charlotte Bronte
Gentle Spirit quotes by Charlotte Bronte
Prayer is about steeping in the Spirit of a God so loving that He totally changes you. ~ Jared Brock
Gentle Spirit quotes by Jared Brock
The spirit of man is not a created being; it existed from eternity and will exist to eternity. Anything created cannot be eternal; and earth, water, ect., had their existence in an elementary state, from eternity." ~Joseph Smith, Jr., 2 July 1839 - Documentary History of the Church 3:387 ~ Joseph Smith Jr.
Gentle Spirit quotes by Joseph Smith Jr.
Calm, gentle, passionless as he appeared, there was yet, we fear, a quiet depth of malice, hitherto latent, but active now, in this unfortunate old man, which led him to imagine a more intimate revenge than any mortal had ever wreaked upon an enemy. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Gentle Spirit quotes by Nathaniel Hawthorne
How many times had she stared up at this same sky and marveled at the view? How many more times would it take before it got old? She hoped she would never know the answer to that question. The gentle gold of Saturn's surface was ever present like a muted eternal sun. The rings, with shades varied from the same gold of the planet's to a brown so dark it might've been black, swept across the planet's fluid surface. ~ Aria Kane
Gentle Spirit quotes by Aria Kane
If we think of the Holy Spirit only as an impersonal power or influence, then our thought will constantly be, how can I get hold of and use the Holy Spirit; but if we think of Him in the biblical way as a divine Person, infinitely wise, infinitely holy, infinitely tender, then our thought will constantly be, 'How can the Holy Spirit get hold of and use me?' ~ R.A. Torrey
Gentle Spirit quotes by R.A. Torrey
All I am saying is that sometimes you're doing quite a lot by not doing anything. You're not quitting. You just keep going. That's the pioneer spirit. ~ Rinker Buck
Gentle Spirit quotes by Rinker Buck
No harm comes to man from outside alone: dumbness is the objective spirit. ~ Theodor Adorno
Gentle Spirit quotes by Theodor Adorno
Being generous without keeping score strengthens your spirit, keeps you focused on the people who make your business what it is, and helps breed success. ~ Brandon Steiner
Gentle Spirit quotes by Brandon Steiner
If you deliberately and passionately grieve over the consolations of darkness and participate with your spirit in their annihilation, you would put yourself above other forms of life and lives of other people. ~ Ivo Žurić
Gentle Spirit quotes by Ivo Žurić
The attention has to be on the Spirit. And that cannot be there unless and until something happens within. ~ Nirmala Srivastava
Gentle Spirit quotes by Nirmala Srivastava
Because every portion of the body, mind, and spirit yearns for the integration of yin and yang, angelic intercourse is led by the spirit rather than the sexual organs ... Where ordinary intercourse unites sex organs with sex organs, angelic cultivation unites spirit with spirit, mind with mind, and every cell of one body with every cell of the other body. ~ Laozi
Gentle Spirit quotes by Laozi
Set fire to cities and nations, to hearts and minds, to the very core of every human spirit. Make sure your words seep into the skin of the reader, leaving trace minerals that sustain the ailing human shell. Make them pay attention. Set fire to the soul. Anything less is an abomination to creation. ~ Susan Marie
Gentle Spirit quotes by Susan Marie
At the point where you find yourself closing down from communicating openly in a relationship, you have a choice about how you would like to proceed. One way forward is to lay fresh layers of protection around your vulnerable heart. You are dampening the other person's ability to hurt you, but you are also less able to communicate your own love genuinely. You are essentially preparing yourself for an inevitable breakup.

The alternative is loosening up your expectations and reconnecting with that curiosity you were able to offer at the beginning of the relationship. You commit to exploring where you are stuck, where you have put up that protective shielding, and how you can open yourself more to your partner. This is a way to deepen a relationship, by recommitting to applying gentle curiosity toward learning about your lover. ~ Lodro Rinzler
Gentle Spirit quotes by Lodro Rinzler
So the spirit must be trained to a realization and an acceptance of its lot. It must come to
see that there is nothing fortune will shrink from[.]
There's no ground for resentment in all this. We've entered into a world in which these are the terms life is lived on – if you're satisfied with that, submit to them, if you're not, get out, whatever way you please. ~ Seneca
Gentle Spirit quotes by Seneca
Be present to those who, living in the midst of a society burdened by poverty and corruption, are broken in spirit, tempted to give up, to leave school and to live on the streets. ~ Pope Francis
Gentle Spirit quotes by Pope Francis
We must realize that the ministries and gifts of the Spirit are for everyday life, not just meetings. ~ Rick Joyner
Gentle Spirit quotes by Rick Joyner
All the great temptations appear first in the region of the mind and can be fought and conquered there. We have been given the power to close the door of the mind. We can lose this power through disuse or increase it by use, by the daily discipline of the inner man in things which seem small and by reliance upon the word of the Spirit of truth. It is God that worketh in you, both to will and to do of His good pleasure. It is as though He said, 'Learn to live in your will, not in your feelings.' ~ Amy Carmichael
Gentle Spirit quotes by Amy Carmichael
Horror is a shock, a time of utter blindness. Horror lacks every hint of beauty. All we can see is the piercing light of an unknown event awaiting us. Sadness, on the other hand, assumes we are in the know ... The light of horror thus lost its harshness, and the world was bathed in a gentle, bluish light that actually beautified it. ~ Milan Kundera
Gentle Spirit quotes by Milan Kundera
For as long as we are led by belief, we can never know anything for certain. It is not enough to believe or to have faith, we must know beyond all doubt. For that, we have no other option, but to search, question and investigate! There is no shame in not having found God, Brahman or the Great Spirit, but it is gravely ignorant to dismiss their existence on hearsay. ~ Anita B. Sulser PhD
Gentle Spirit quotes by Anita B. Sulser PhD
Worship is about something we do. It involves sacrifice. But at the heart of the gospel is this truth, we are called and chosen by God to join in with the dance of the trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. ~ Tim Hughes
Gentle Spirit quotes by Tim Hughes
We must never ignore or pass by the prompting of the Spirit to render service to one another. ~ M. Russell Ballard
Gentle Spirit quotes by M. Russell Ballard
That will be your married look, I, as a Christian, will soon give up the notion of consorting with a mere sprite or salamander. But what had you to ask, thing, - out with it?" "There, you are less than civil now; and I like rudeness a great deal better than flattery. I had rather be a thing than an angel. This is what I have to ask, - Why did you take such pains to make me believe you wished to marry Miss Ingram?" "Is that all? Thank God it is no worse!" And now he unknit his black brows; looked down, smiling at me, and stroked my hair, as if well pleased at seeing a danger averted. "I think I may confess," he continued, "even although I should make you a little indignant, Jane - and I have seen what a fire-spirit you can be when you are indignant. You glowed in the cool moonlight last night, when you mutinied against fate, and claimed your rank as my equal. Janet, by-the-bye, it was you who made me the offer. ~ Charlotte Bronte
Gentle Spirit quotes by Charlotte Bronte
Rejoice for we are all one under the sun. There are no racial barriers or cultural differences for we are all the same within humanity. The only thing that separates humanity is land for consciousness stretches across the universe, connecting all of humanity through the mind and spirit. ~ Kenneth G. Ortiz
Gentle Spirit quotes by Kenneth G. Ortiz
He waited for some moments, listening, before he too took up the air with them. He was listening with pain of spirit to the overtone of weariness behind their frail fresh innocent voices. Even before they set out on life's journey they seemed weary already of the way. ~ James Joyce
Gentle Spirit quotes by James Joyce
But God does not neglect his lost creature. He plans to re-create his image in man, to recover his first delight in his handiwork. He is seeking in it his own image so that he may love it. But there is only one way to achieve this purpose and that is for God, out of sheer mercy, to assume the image and form of fallen man. But this restoration of the divine image concerns not just a part, but the whole image of divine nature. It is not enough for man to simply recover right ideas about God, or to obey his will in the isolated actions of his life. No, man must be re-fashioned as a living whole in the image of God. His whole form, body, soul and spirit, must once more bear that image on earth. Such is God's purpose and destiny for man. His good pleasure can rest only on his perfected image. ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Gentle Spirit quotes by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
All Scripture ought to be read in the spirit in which it was written. ~ Thomas A Kempis
Gentle Spirit quotes by Thomas A Kempis
Pride is an independent, me-oriented spirit. It makes people arrogant, rude and hard to get along with. When our heart is prideful, we don't give God the credit and we mistreat people, looking down on them and thinking we deserve what we have. ~ Joyce Meyer
Gentle Spirit quotes by Joyce Meyer
If you've ever felt inspired by a purpose or calling, you know the feeling of spirit working through you. ~ Wayne Dyer
Gentle Spirit quotes by Wayne Dyer
Books are the liberated spirits of men. ~ Mark Twain
Gentle Spirit quotes by Mark Twain
One lies there," I thought, "who will soon be beyond the war of earthly elements. Whither will that spirit -- now struggling to quit its material tenement -- flit when at length released? ~ Charlotte Bronte
Gentle Spirit quotes by Charlotte Bronte
Here is my room, in the yellow lamplight and the space heater rumbling: Indian rug red as Cochise's blood, a desk with seven mystic drawers, a chair covered in material as velvety blue-black as Batman's cape, an aquarium holding tiny fish so pale you could see their hearts beat, the aforementioned dresser covered with decals from Revell model airplane kits, a bed with a quilt sewn by a relative of Jefferson Davis's, a closet, and the shelves, oh, yes, the shelves. The troves of treasure. On those shelves are stacks of me: hundreds of comic books- Justice League, Flash, Green Lantern, Batman, the Spirit, Blackhawk, Sgt. Rock and Easy Company, Aquaman, and the Fantastic Four ... The shelves go on for miles and miles. My collection of marbles gleams in a mason jar. My dried cicada waits to sing again in the summer. My Duncan yo-yo that whistles except the string is broken and Dad's got to fix it. ~ Robert McCammon
Gentle Spirit quotes by Robert McCammon
I have an idea for a new book. It's a novel about a beautiful yet sensitive author whose spirit is crushed by her domineering editor. Do you like it? ~ Annie Barrows
Gentle Spirit quotes by Annie Barrows
Animal lovers are a special breed of humans, generous of spirit, full of empathy, perhaps a little prone to sentimentality, and with hearts as big as a cloudless sky ~ John Grogan
Gentle Spirit quotes by John Grogan
A positive virtue - the real thing - is not something that you do. It is something that you are. A genuinely kindly person and his kindness are a single unit; they are one. A really gentle person cannot help acting with kindness any more than a cruel person can help but act with cruelty.
Do not be afraid to face the existence of negative attitudes and emotions within you. Simply see that they are there. Remember, they are not the real you; they are acquired negativities.
Once you really see this you will go to work on yourself in a new way. ~ Vernon Howard
Gentle Spirit quotes by Vernon Howard
How can we have revival when we value a book the early Church didn't have over the Holy Spirit they did have? ~ Kris Vallotton
Gentle Spirit quotes by Kris Vallotton
You strike me as a gentle soul," she says. I've never thought of myself as gentle. Fragile is more like it. Prone to bruising. ~ Riley Sager
Gentle Spirit quotes by Riley Sager
We lose a great deal, I think, when we lose this sense and feeling for the sun. When all has been said, the adventure of the sun is the great natural drama by which we live, and not to have joy in it and awe of it, not to share in it, is to close a dull door on natures's sustaining and poetic spirit. ~ Henry Beston
Gentle Spirit quotes by Henry Beston
Love and Self-control are the bookends of the fruit of the Spirit. Remove one of them and the rest fall over ~ Joyce Meyer
Gentle Spirit quotes by Joyce Meyer
I am very proud of my mom and consider her the most courageous woman I know. With perseverance, sacrifice and hard work, she raised a family of Olympic athletes and gave us the tools and the spirit to succeed. That is something that my brothers and I will always be thankful for. ~ Diana Lopez
Gentle Spirit quotes by Diana Lopez
Our revelation is for the sons and daughters of God, realizing now that the greatest manifestation of the Spirit in our lives is love - the kind that holds no record of wrong - without which everything else we do is worthless, as Paul made so plain to the Corinthians. The Spirit of truth comes to show us the Father's love and our union with and in Christ, because only in this awareness can we love as He loves and so show ourselves and the world the love of the Father. ~ Ted Dekker
Gentle Spirit quotes by Ted Dekker
We've learned that success does not come to the man who has no problems; if nothing goes wrong, the chances are nothing goes at all, for action brings problems as surely as planting potatoes brings bugs. The man of spirit goes after the bugs, he doesn't quit planting potatoes. ~ Charlotte Paul
