Mott quotes by John Mott
You are the biggest fool of a boy I've ever known," Mott said. Then his tone softened. "But you will serve Carthya well."
"I wish I felt ready to do this," I said. "The closer we come to the moment, the more I see every defect in my character that caused my parents to send me away in the first place."
"From all I'm told, the prince they sent away was selfish, mischievous, and destructive. The king who returns is courageous, noble, and strong."
"And a fool," I added
Mott chuckled. "You are that too. ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
Mott quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
In order for prisons to truly serve the public, the people who run them would do well to aspire to the words of Thomas Mott Osborne, the storied warden of New York's Sing Sing Prison in the early part of the twentieth century, who vowed, 'We will turn this prison from a scrap heap into a repair shop. ~ Piper Kerman
Mott quotes by Piper Kerman
Weep not for me. Rather let your tears flow for the sorrows of the multitude. My work is done. Like a ripe fruit I admit the gathering. Death has no terrors for it is a wise law of nature. I am ready whenever the summons may come. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
It had been another night of restlessness for him and, as is often the case with certain types of men, he'd decided that being angry in general was the best way to deal with whatever was going on in his heart that he didn't understand. "What's ~ Jason Mott

Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
If our principles are right, why should we be cowards? ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Never would have imagined it in my entire life. But I guess just because I can't imagine something doesn't mean it can't happen - that's the solipsist's flaw! The truth of things is right out there. All you have to do is open the door and there it is, all of it, everything I can't imagine, right there for you to reach out and shake hands with." Her voice broke. The ~ Jason Mott

The likeness we bear to Jesus is more essential than our notions of him. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
I wanted to be a literary writer, so I wrote story after story and sent them to 'The New Yorker.' ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
You ask me, How much time? I do not know. I know it means time enough to forget time. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
Those who go forth ministering to the wants and necessities of their fellow beings experience a rich return, their souls being as a watered garden, and a spring that faileth not ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Any great change must expect opposition, because it shakes the very foundation of privilege. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
It is possible for the most obscure person in a church, with a heart right toward God, to exercise as much power for the evangelization of the world, as it is for those who stand in the most prominent positions. ~ John R. Mott
Mott quotes by John R. Mott
For her part in things, Lucille breathed in, held the image of the house and all that it meant to her in the universe of her lungs until she thought she might faint. Then she held it longer, clawing at this moment, this image, this life, this single breath, though she knew she would have to let it go. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
Tomorrow we will rejoin the war. So it's time to decide who you are. Will you be carried off by this wind coming at us, or stand and face it? ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
Mott quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
Liberty is not less a blessing, because oppression has so long darkened the mind that it can not appreciate it. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
The world has never yet seen a truly great and virtuous nation because in the degradation of woman the very fountains of life are poisoned at their source. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Science can have a purifying effect on religion, freeing it from beliefs of a pre-scientific age and helping us to a truer conception of God. At the same time, I am far from believing that science will ever give us the answers to all our questions. ~ Nevill Francis Mott
Mott quotes by Nevill Francis Mott
I long for the day my sisters will rise, and occupy the sphere to which they are called by their high nature and destiny. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
From the day of Pentecost until the present time, it has been necessary to be of one accord in prayer before the Spirit of God will work with mighty converting power. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
As the day progressed, it became evident that I would eat better on this period of punishment from Mott than I'd eaten yet since coming to Farthenwood.
Tobias snuck me back better than half of his breakfast, and Errol left some food in my room while cleaning up, expressing false dismay after I ate it that "it was food intended for somebody else."
We were to remain in our room in private study because of Princess Amarinda being in the house, but after lunch was brought to us, Tobias gave me all of his lunch and Roden shared half. ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
Mott quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
What a gift to have a son. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
We 're all yearning for a wedge of sky, aren 't we? I suspect Zgod plants these yearlings in us so we'll at least try and change the course of things. We must try, that's all" - Lucretia Mott in The Invention of Wings ~ Sue Monk Kidd
Mott quotes by Sue Monk Kidd
When I make a recipe for the first time and it's fabulous, I know I'm in trouble because I don't know exactly what I did, and I can't replicate it. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
I'm always astonished to see how badly people can behave when they think no one is noticing. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
It is a startling and solemnizing fact that even as late as the twentieth century, the Great Command of Jesus Christ to carry the Gospel to all mankind is still so largely unfulfilled. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
In order to have real prayer and action to change things, we must have conviction as to the need of prayer and action. In order to have conviction as to the need of prayer and action, we must have knowledge. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
And what do YOU like in life?' [the priest] asks me, ready to play the patronising game at my expense in order to raise a giggle from the rest of the class, thus rendering him popular for a few perverse minutes. 'Mott The Hoople,' I answer truthfully. ~ Morrissey
Mott quotes by Morrissey
The history of missions is a history of prayer. Everything vital to the success of the world's evangelization hinges on prayer. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
We have nothing less to do than to get inside of whole peoples and change their motives and dispositions. ~ John Raleigh Mott
Mott quotes by John Raleigh Mott

Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
If there's one thing America will always lead the world in," Harold said, "it's assholes with guns. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott

Mott quotes by John Mott
I have no idea of submitting tamely to injustice inflicted either on me or on the slave. I will oppose it with all the moral powers with which I am endowed. I am no advocate of passivity. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
The men that will change the colleges and seminaries here represented are the men that will spend the most time alone with God ... It takes time for the fires to burn. It takes time for God to draw near and for us to know that He is there. It takes time to assimilate His truth. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
You can be rich by having more than you need, or by needing less than you have. - JIM MOTT ~ Anthony Robbins
Mott quotes by Anthony Robbins
I resolved to claim for my sex all that an impartial Creator had bestowed, which, by custom and a perverted application of the Scriptures, had been wrested from woman. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
I told the caterer I'd work for nothing if he'd teach me about catering. I lasted one week full-time. It was exhausting. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
There is an irresistible demand to strengthen the leadership of the constructive forces of the world at the present momentous time. This is true because of stupendous, almost unbelievable changes which have taken place in recent years on every continent. ~ John Raleigh Mott
Mott quotes by John Raleigh Mott
I've got to go."
"Go where?"
"To go. I'd have just taken care of it myself, but it looks like you want to come along."
Mott cursed. "Wait for morning."
"Wish I could. I've been cursed with my mother's pea-size bladder. ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
Mott quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
The thing is, if you make best-sellerdom your goal, you're going to be in trouble. It's a very nice thing to have happen, but if one makes that a goal like, say, a literary writer has the goal of getting the Pulitzer Prize, that's so unpredictable. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
In a mystery, the sleuth must be believably involved and emotionally invested in solving the crime. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
Such highly qualitative leadership is demanded especially in the realm of the fostering of right international relations. Here the demand is simply irresistible. ~ John Raleigh Mott
Mott quotes by John Raleigh Mott
Truth for authority, not authority for truth. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Death is only the beginning of the reunion you did not know you wanted, ~ Jason Mott

Mott quotes by Jason Mott
Don't make this a fight."
"I won't, but you make everything a fight. ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
Mott quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
...I had deliberately let the relationship with Schulz wane until there was little left. We had been like the hot chocolate they sell at ski resorts. For your buck fifty, a machine first spews dark, thick syrup into a cup. This liquid gradually turns to a mixture of chocolate and hot water. Soon there is just a stream of hot water, and in a moment, drops. You wish the chocolate part would go on gushing forever, but it doesn't. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
Anything tastes good when you wash it down with chocolate. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
Some folks locked the doors of their hearts when they lost someone. Others kept the doors and the windows open, letting memory and love pass through freely. And maybe that was the way it was supposed to be, Harold thought. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
One thing that improved my cooking skills was being a poor student in California ... If you don't have much money, you have to learn to cook. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
Of front-line importance among the most contagious and enduring traits of the leaders of nations and of all callings is that of spotless character. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
That air of electric tension, of a great city on the edge of an abyss, is more noticeable than ever at the White Russian cabaret called, not inappropriately, "New York." You wouldn't know you were in China. An almond-eyed platinum-blonde has just finished wailing, with a Mott Street accent, "You're gonna lose your gal." ("Jane Brown's Body") ~ Cornell Woolrich
Mott quotes by Cornell Woolrich
Let methods be changed, therefore, if necessary, that prayer may be given its true place. Let there be days set apart for intercession; let the original purpose of the monthly concert of prayer for missions be given a larger place; let missionary prayer cycles be used by families and by individual Christians. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
Donna: You really believe in all that stuff, don't you?
Wilfred Mott (Bernard Cribbins): It's all over the place these days. If I wait here long enough ...
Donna: I don't suppose you've seen a little blue box.
Wilfred: Is that slang for something?
Donna: I mean it. If you ever see a little blue box, flying up there in the sky, you shout for me, Gramps. Oh you just shout.
Wilfred: You know, I don't understand half the things you say these days.
Donna: Nor me.
Wilfred: Fair do's. You've had a funny old time of it lately
-Doctor Who ~ Russell T. Davies
Mott quotes by Russell T. Davies
Prayer is the greatest force that we can wield. It is the greatest talent which God has granted us. He has given it to every Christian. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
Spending your life on nothing but gossip and hearsay isn't any way to stay informed. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
The invasion of the Church by the world is a menace to the extension of Christ's Kingdom. In all ages conformity to the world by Christians has resulted in lack of spiritual life and a consequent lack of spiritual vision and enterprise. A secularized or self-centered Church can never evangelize the world. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
In a deep sexy voice, she said Windows don't turn me on.
I raised an eyebrow at her, Mac user? ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
Basically, Sam Phillips recorded Bill Haley, Johnny Cash, and all those other Memphis guys; Chuck Berry played the top two strings; Elvis appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show above the waist; the Beatles made all the girls squirm by singing about wanting to hold their "hands"; Ray Davies got lost in a sunset; Pete Townshend smashed his guitar; Brian Wilson heard magic in his head and made it come out of a studio; the Rolling Stones urinated on a garage door; and then (skipping a bit) you've got Joey Levine and Chapman-Chinn and Mott the Hoople and Iggy and the Runaways and KISS and the Pink Fairies and Rick Nielsen and Jonathan Richman and Johnny Ramone and Lemmy and the Young brothers and Cook and Jones and Pete Shelley and Feargal Sharkey and Rob Halford ... and Foghat. You get what I'm saying. It didn't happen in a vacuum, but it did happen, and now here we are in the aftermath. ~ Frank Portman
Mott quotes by Frank Portman
Unspeakable nightmares surround the men now. They would scream if they could. It's no use. The dream has them, and it will not relinquish its hold. Ever. Back in their beds on Mott Street. the men's bodies go limp. But behind their closed lids, their eyes move frantically as, one by one, they are pulled deeper and deeper into a nightmare from which they will never, ever wake. ~ Libba Bray
Mott quotes by Libba Bray
It was a good word: progress. A safe word that you snuggled up against when you were nervous. The kind of word you took home to meet your parents. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
I grew up so thoroughly imbued with women's rights that it was the most important question of my life from a very early day. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
The missionary church is a praying church. The history of missions is a history of prayer. Everything vital to the success of the world's evangelization hinges on prayer. Are thousands of missionaries and tens of thousands of native workers needed? Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He send forth laborers into His harvest. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
People and events of wonder and magic are the lifeblood of the world. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
You can't buy what you want. It all comes as a gift. ~ Diane Mott Davidson
Mott quotes by Diane Mott Davidson
Any number of hours later, Mott came with a rock that he said was as shiny as the one I'd had before. He pointed out that it was a little bigger than the other one and looked more valuable. I could have this rock. I only had to return the other one to Conner. ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
Mott quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
And as any man does when faced with the raw terror of emotion, he surrendered to his wife and buried his thoughts below the anvil of his heart. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
The GREATEST HINDRANCES to the evangelization of the world are those within the Church. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
I want that there should be a belief, a faith in the possibility of removing mountains to the side of right. If we believe that war is wrong, as everyone must, then we ought to believe that by proper efforts on our part, it may be done away with. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Prayer alone will overcome the gigantic difficulties which confront the workers in every field. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
Let us no longer be blinded by the dim theology that only in the far seeing vision discovers a millennium, when violence shall no more be heard in the land wasting nor destruction in her borders; but let us behold it now, nigh at the door lending faith and confidence to our hopes, assuring us that even we ourselves shall be instrumental in proclaiming liberty to the captive. ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Reading the article he wished for more detail ... But the media was the last place one should look for truth. A person was lucky to find the facts, let alone the truth. ~ Jason Mott
Mott quotes by Jason Mott
I believe in God, who can respond to prayers, to whom we can give trust and without whom life on this earth would be without meaning (a tale told by an idiot). I believe that God has revealed Himself to us in many ways and through many men and women, and that for us here in the West the clearest revelation is through Jesus and those that have followed him. ~ Nevill Francis Mott
Mott quotes by Nevill Francis Mott
Let our lives be in accordiance with our convictions of right, each striving to carry out our principles ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
Words ... present a picture of the inward man. ~ John Mott
Mott quotes by John Mott
Christian soldiers armed with virtue- hearts afire with blind obsession, cannot see the difference 'twixt compassion and oppression ~ Lucretia Mott
Mott quotes by Lucretia Mott
As the President has indicated, my life has been a life of travel - for 60 years constantly moving over the wide world on journeys which first and last have taken me to 83 countries, and, what is more significant, to most of them again and again. ~ John Raleigh Mott
