A dark-skinned young woman sat on the roof of the aftcastle, one leg swinging as she watched the new slaves shuffle across. ~ Joe Abercrombie
New Slaves quotes by Joe Abercrombie
Ah, my dear friend, cheer up... After all, we have peace! And because there is peace, the occupiers can't behave so abominably anymore. All right, we're not free. But we are used to that, Mr. Kujawski. After all we were both born into slavery, and we will die in it. Oh yes, at first they'll exploit us ruthlessly. Fourteen hours of slave labor a day. A bowl of watery soup. Whippings, beatings... But that will pass with time. Because there is peace, they won't have a chance to get any new slaves. They'll have to take good care of those have already. Cheer up, dear Mr. Kujawski... [...] Arbeit macht frei, work makes man free, and it makes him especially so in the sunshine of European peace. We will lack only one thing. Only one! The right of dissent. The right to say out loud that we want a free and independent Poland, that we want to brush our teeth and go on holiday in our own way, conceive children and work our own way, think in our own way, live and die. This is the one thing you will find missing in the sunshine of European peace, which you, my friend, hold to be the highest good. ~ Andrzej Szczypiorski
New Slaves quotes by Andrzej Szczypiorski
When we drew up to the soldiers, Felix told them who he was and about the griffin he was bringing in. A soldier eyed me. You have new slaves too? ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
New Slaves quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
I think of the old slavery, and of the way The Economy has now improved upon it. The new slavery has improved upon the old by giving the new slaves the illusion that they are free. The Economy does not take people's freedom by force, which would be against its principles, for it is very humane. It buys their freedom, pays for it, and then persuades its money back again with shoddy goods and the promise of freedom. "Buy a car," it says, "and be free. Buy a boat and be free." Is this not the raw material of bad dreams? Or is it maybe the very nightmare itself? ~ Wendell Berry
New Slaves quotes by Wendell Berry
It might seem to you that living in the woods on a riverbank would remove you from the modern world. But not if the river is navigable, as ours is. On pretty weekends in the summer, this riverbank is the very verge of the modern world. It is a seat in the front row, you might say. On those weekends, the river is disquieted from morning to night by people resting from their work.
This resting involves traveling at great speed, first on the road and then on the river. The people are in an emergency to relax. They long for the peace and quiet of the great outdoors. Their eyes are hungry for the scenes of nature. They go very fast in their boats. They stir the river like a spoon in a cup of coffee. They play their radios loud enough to hear above the noise of their motors. They look neither left nor right. They don't slow down for - or maybe even see - an old man in a rowboat raising his lines...
I watch and I wonder and I think. I think of the old slavery, and of the way The Economy has now improved upon it. The new slavery has improved upon the old by giving the new slaves the illusion that they are free. The Economy does not take people's freedom by force, which would be against its principles, for it is very humane. It buys their freedom, pays for it, and then persuades its money back again with shoddy goods and the promise of freedom. ~ Wendell Berry
New Slaves quotes by Wendell Berry
There's leaders, and there's followers ... but I'd rather be a d*ck than a swallower ~ Kanye West
New Slaves quotes by Kanye West
I'm talkin' about us, the new slaves, the people who love fashion. I'm talking about us, you know? 'Cause I'm a slave to it. I love it. ~ Kanye West
New Slaves quotes by Kanye West
It feels like we're making love. Like we're saying new phrases with our bodies. Talking in a bold new language. One that says I love this, and you're mine, and let's not stop, let's never stop.
Soon, I'm seeing stars and saying his name, and this feels like surrendering to love.
It's terrifying and beautiful at the same time. ~ Lauren Blakely
New Slaves quotes by Lauren Blakely
Lagos is a metropolis of almost twenty million people, with more energy than London, more entrepreneurial spirit than New York, and so people come up with all sorts of ways to make a living. ~ Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
New Slaves quotes by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Life throws challenges but with patience and resilience you can convert every challenge into a new opportunity to grow. ~ Amit Ray
New Slaves quotes by Amit Ray
There is always an opportunity to start again and again, if the old ways are not working last year, look for better ways of doing it in the new year and start again afresh. ~ Bamigboye Olurotimi
New Slaves quotes by Bamigboye Olurotimi
Declare you are blessed! Start talking like it's going to happen. ~ Germany Kent
New Slaves quotes by Germany Kent
I have no life there if you're not in it. You're part of everything good I've ever done, Ryen. Please. ~ Penelope Douglas
New Slaves quotes by Penelope Douglas
It's always hard to deal with injuries mentally, but I like to think about it as a new beginning. I can't change what happened, so the focus needs to go toward healing and coming back stronger than before. ~ Carli Lloyd
New Slaves quotes by Carli Lloyd
Then as citizens of the New Jerusalem, we share heaven's honours. The glory which belongs to beatified saints belongs to us, for we are already sons of God, already princes of the blood imperial; already we wear the spotless robe of Jesus' righteousness; already we have angels for our servitors, saints for our companions, Christ for our Brother, God for our Father, and a crown of immortality for our reward. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
New Slaves quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
What's going on with you? Jared asked out of the blue.
Beginning a new era of journalistic history, Kami told him, sending her cheer through their connection. Also, to be perfectly honest, Angela and I were slapping our asses.
As one does. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
New Slaves quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I got into film acting because I wanted to be James Dean. We lost him at a very young age - he was only 24 - but I'm in my fifthies, so there's only so many times you can act like James Dean. I had to find new ways of expressing myself that kept me fascinated with film performance. ~ Nicolas Cage
New Slaves quotes by Nicolas Cage
In climbing you are always faced with new problems in which you must perform using intuitive movements, and then later analyze them to figure out why they work, and then learn from them. ~ Wolfgang Gullich
New Slaves quotes by Wolfgang Gullich
If the individual is to be happy in the contemporary order, he must be open-minded with respect to new values and new arrangements. ~ Thomas Cochrane
New Slaves quotes by Thomas Cochrane
Any new producer starting up is to get investors' confidence. Investors are still very very wary of anything to do with the arts world. ~ Ann Macbeth
New Slaves quotes by Ann Macbeth
It's as if I'm afraid to spoil the charm of what has only just passed by a serious book or some serious occupation. As if this ugly dream and all the impressions it left behind are so dear to me that I'm even afraid to touch it with something new, lest it vanish in smoke! ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
New Slaves quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Investment banks started recruiting at Harvard back in the day, and they'd fly me down to New York City and I was so poor so I would take advantage of the free flight, the per diem, the hotel. And then I would go audition for stuff. ~ Dean Norris
New Slaves quotes by Dean Norris
The prudent, penniless beginner in the world, labors for wages awhile, saves a surplus with which to buy tools or land, for himself; then labors on his own account another while, and at length hires another new beginner to help him. This, say its advocates, is free labor-the just and generous, and prosperous system, which opens the way for all-gives hope to all, and energy, and progress, and improvement of condition to all. ~ Abraham Lincoln
New Slaves quotes by Abraham Lincoln
One of the phrases I frequently look for is infinite learning curve.Because each entrepreneurial pattern is to some degree unique and new. ~ Reid Hoffman
New Slaves quotes by Reid Hoffman
Cynicism creates a numbness toward life.

Cynicism begins with a wry assurance that everyone has an angle. Behind every silver lining is a cloud. The cynic is always observing, critiquing, but never engaging, loving, and hoping.

...

To be cynical is to be distant. While offering a false intimacy of being "in the know," cynicism actually destroys intimacy. It leads to bitterness that can deaden and even destroy the spirit.

...

Cynicism begins, oddly enough, with too much of the wrong kind of faith, with naive optimism or foolish confidence. At first glance, genuine faith and naive optimism appear identical since both foster confidence and hope.But the similarity is only surface deep.Genuine faith comes from knowing my heavenly Father loves, enjoys, and cares for me. Naive optimism is groundless. It is childlike trust without the loving Father.

...

Optimism in the goodness of people collapses when it confronts the dark side of life.

...

Shattered optimism sets us up for the fall into defeated weariness and, eventually, cynicism. You'd think it would just leave us less optimistic, but we humans don't do neutral well. We go from seeing the bright side of everything to seeing the dark side of everything. We feel betrayed by life.

...

The movement from naive optimism to cynicism is the new American journey. In naive optimism we don't need to pray because everythin ~ Paul E. Miller
New Slaves quotes by Paul E. Miller
If you can be kind and considerate for one day, then you can be for another. It won't cost you a penny in the world. Begin today. ~ Dale Carnegie
New Slaves quotes by Dale Carnegie
Apple's Jony Ive describes his "fanatical" approach to design in new interview ~ Jonathan Ive
New Slaves quotes by Jonathan Ive
Much as I hate to stand out in a crowd, I have this terrible occasional compulsion to make myself a source of merriment for the world, and I had come close to sealing new heights with a Russian hat. Now, clearly, that would be unnecessary. ~ Bill Bryson
New Slaves quotes by Bill Bryson
I try something new every night. It's an hour show; if it works I maybe try it a few more times and then move that off and try something new. It's a great workshop for me. ~ Kate Clinton
New Slaves quotes by Kate Clinton
A child's appetite for new toys appeal to the desire for ownership and appropriation: the appeal of toys comes to lie not in their use but in their status as possessions. ~ Christopher Lasch
New Slaves quotes by Christopher Lasch
Doug: I would not wipe my ass with your manuscript. Would you like to know why?
Bob: Sure
Doug: Because there is crap already all over it. ~ Joseph Cognard
New Slaves quotes by Joseph Cognard
In my life as an architect, I found that the single thing which inhibits young professionals, new students most severely, is their acceptance of standards that are too low. ~ Christopher Alexander
New Slaves quotes by Christopher Alexander
CONFORMITY AND REVOLT Have you ever sat very quietly with closed eyes and watched the movement of your own thinking? Have you watched your mind working - or rather, has your mind watched itself in operation, just to see what your thoughts are, what your feelings are, how you look at the trees, at the flowers, at the birds, at people, how you respond to a suggestion or react to a new idea? Have you ever done this? If you have not, you are missing a ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
New Slaves quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
I want my readers to be disturbed. I want them to ask, 'Could this really happen?' It is my job to think up new possibilities, to stimulate thought. ~ Lois Tilton
New Slaves quotes by Lois Tilton
You are about to be reminded of the truth-of-all-truths. I use the word "reminded" because it is something you already know, but may have forgotten or ceased to believe. No self-help book, no guru, no sage of any faith can teach you anything more important or powerful. If you accept it and embrace it this truth will whip your life around and set you on a new, higher road. You will live larger, healthier, more happily. You'll have the ability to bounce back when you get knocked down. You'll have the faith you need to tunnel through dark times. You'll have the light you need to lead others to a better place.
You are a child of God.
That's it.
That's everything - everything you'll ever need to know to conquer doubt, fear and adversity, to transform your life from the mundane to the magnificent, to fortify your relationships and the foundations of all that is good and right and worthy of your attention. You are a literal spiritual child of a king all-powerful and all-loving. He knows you. He values you. He wants you to be happy and successful. You have the right to approach the throne of God and ask not only for what you need, but for what you want. ~ Toni Sorenson
New Slaves quotes by Toni Sorenson
I got really excited about finding new ways of using video, and the immediacy is different, in a way, than painting and photography. The creativity comes with the editing. You can layer and cut and paste. I really love that it's like another form of making my smaller collages but in video form. ~ Mickalene Thomas
New Slaves quotes by Mickalene Thomas
We've been married for more than eight years now and we're still into it. I think you do fall in and out of love and you just keep going, and every time you go through a really difficult phase, you rediscover something new and it just gets better. ~ Gwyneth Paltrow
New Slaves quotes by Gwyneth Paltrow
Old and new kiss everywhere in Africa ~ John Gunther
New Slaves quotes by John Gunther
The family story tells, and it was told true,
of my great-grandfather who begat eight
genius children and bought twelve almost new
grand pianos. He left a considerable estate
when he died. ~ Anne Sexton
New Slaves quotes by Anne Sexton
My boyhood life in New York City has impressed me with the popular ignorance and also with the great need of something better than local lore and weather proverbs. ~ Cleveland Abbe
