We still and always want waking. We should amass half dressed in long lines like tribesmen and shake gourds at each other, to wake up; instead we watch television and miss the show. ~ Annie Dillard
Gourds quotes by Annie Dillard
So it was that the Red Tower put into production its terrible and perplexing line of unique novelty items. Among the objects and constructions now manufactured were several of an almost innocent nature. These included tiny, delicate cameos that were heavier than their size would suggest, far heavier, and lockets whose shiny outer surface flipped open to reveal a black reverberant abyss inside, a deep blackness roaring with echoes. Along the same lines was a series of lifelike replicas of internal organs and physiological structures, many of them evidencing an advanced stage of disease and all of them displeasingly warm and soft to the touch. There was a fake disembodied hand on which fingernails would grow several inches overnight, every night like clockwork. Numerous natural objects, mostly bulbous gourds, were designed to produce a long deafening scream whenever they were picked up or otherwise disturbed in their vegetable stillness. Less scrutable were such things as hardened globs of lava into whose rough igneous forms were set a pair of rheumy eyes that perpetually shifted their gaze from side to side like a relentless pendulum. And there was also a humble piece of cement, a fragment broken away from any street or sidewalk, that left a most intractable stain, greasy and green, on whatever surface it was placed. But such fairly simple items were eventually followed, and ultimately replaced, by more articulated objects and constructions. One example of this complex type of ~ Thomas Ligotti
Gourds quotes by Thomas Ligotti
Like Jonah, you may lose your gourd, but you cannot lose your God. ~ Charles Spurgeon
Gourds quotes by Charles Spurgeon
I doubt if a single individual could be found from the whole of mankind free from some form of insanity. The only difference is one of degree. ~ Desiderius Erasmus
Gourds quotes by Desiderius Erasmus
As naturally as the oak bears an acorn and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Gourds quotes by Henry David Thoreau
Thus the Lord, by pain, sickness, and disappointments, by breaking our cisterns and withering our gourds - weakens our attachment to this world, and makes the thought of leaving it, more easy and more desirable. ~ John Newton
Gourds quotes by John Newton
Put a thorn in every enjoyment, a worm in every gourd, that would either prevent my being wholly thine, or in any measure retard my progress in the divine life. ~ Thomas Cogswell Upham
Gourds quotes by Thomas Cogswell Upham
Do not be small minded. Do not pray for gourds and pumpkins from God, when you should be asking for pure love and pure knowledge to dawn within every heart. ~ Ramakrishna
Gourds quotes by Ramakrishna
When a gourd is hollowed out it becomes empty and is of great use to the world because of its emptiness. ~ Dorothy Gilman
Gourds quotes by Dorothy Gilman
The sun has blessed you," Sarita used to say. "Look how he has left his kisses on your face for all to see and be jealous."
"The sun loves you more," I said, rubbing my hands over her dry arms, the color of an aged wine gourd, and she laughed.
But this is not India and we are not prized for our freckles here. The sun is not allowed to show his love. ~ Libba Bray
Gourds quotes by Libba Bray
No, our individual needs and desires brought us to the patch. I needed a job, and you love decorating gourds. ~ Faith Erin Hicks
Gourds quotes by Faith Erin Hicks
An LSD experience without the LSD -that was a laugh. In fact, the heads are pouring in by the hundreds, bombed out of their gourds, hundreds of heads coming out into the absolute open for the first time. It is like the time the Pranksters went to the Beatles concert in full costume, looking so bizarre and so totally smoked that no one could believe they were. Nobody would risk it in public like that. Well the kids are just having an LSD experience without the LSD, that's all, and this is what it looks like. A hulking crazed whirlpool. That's nice. ~ Tom Wolfe
Gourds quotes by Tom Wolfe
We're not pumpkins. We're stunning autumn gourds. ~ Penny Reid
