It is easy to miss the possibility that every person who crosses your path can become an event and a memory, good or bad, to fill in the hours with experience instead of tedium, to break the monotony of the passing moments. ~ R.A. Salvatore
Passing Moments quotes by R.A. Salvatore
Nothing gives a sadder sense of decay than this loss or suspension of the power to deal with unaccustomed things, and to keep up with the swiftness of the passing moment. [Speaking of self-posed isolation in old age.] ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Passing Moments quotes by Nathaniel Hawthorne
Goethe tells us in his greatest poem that Faust lost the liberty of his soul when he said to the passing moment, 'Stay, thou art so fair. ~ Robert Kennedy
Passing Moments quotes by Robert Kennedy
If eternity had a season, it would be midsummer. Autumn, winter, spring are all change and passage, but at the height of summer the year stands poised. It's only a passing moment, but even as it passes the heart knows it cannot change. ~ Ursula K. Le Guin
Passing Moments quotes by Ursula K. Le Guin
Happiness is not about money, not even about sex or what ever luxuries and pleasures. Happiness is about being content with what you have, happiness is being satisfied with what you have tasted. Happiness is finding the joy of each passing moments and continue to cherish the good memories of yesterday, happiness is finding the YOU within YOU. ~ John Henry Taguines
Passing Moments quotes by John Henry Taguines
We have to keep an eye on the future with a sense of the past in every passing moment of the present. ~ Amanda Harlech
Passing Moments quotes by Amanda Harlech
I'm beginning to think that life is about passing moments and small celebrations. Without them there's only pain, fear, ambition, and, for some of us, foolish hope. ~ Kyra Davis
Passing Moments quotes by Kyra Davis
Every second that goes by is a point of no return. ~ J.R. Rim
Passing Moments quotes by J.R. Rim
With each passing moment, a Soul sets off to find Itself. ~ Rumi
Passing Moments quotes by Rumi
Or is it the case that no one gets over anything? Is there really that much pain and suffering continuing right now at this minute, in millions of hearts, in bodies carrying on the burden of existence, trying to smile through tears for fleeting, passing moments here and there-when they can forget what happened to them, maybe even for whole hours at a time? Maybe that's what it is to live. ~ Koethi Zan
Passing Moments quotes by Koethi Zan
Florence Farr once said to me, If we could say to ourselves, with sincerity, 'this passing moment is as good as any I shall ever know,' we could die upon the instant and be united with God. ~ William Butler Yeats
Passing Moments quotes by William Butler Yeats
Children have an anxious concern for living beings, and the satisfaction of this instinct fills them with delight. It is therefore easy to interest them in taking care of plants and especially of animals. Nothing awakens foresight in a small child such as this. When he knows that animals have need of him, that little plants will dry up if he does not water them, he binds together with a new thread of love today's passing moments with those of the morrow. ~ Maria Montessori
Passing Moments quotes by Maria Montessori
The summer stretched out the daylight as if on a rack. Each moment was drawn out until its anatomy collapsed. Time broke down. The day progressed in an endless sequence of dead moments. ~ China Mieville
Passing Moments quotes by China Mieville
Swift flies our time on pinions fleet, Like vapours on the breeze; The transient bliss we now call sweet, The passing moments seize. The gilded joy, the present hour, Soon wing themselves away; Departing like the fading flower That pleas'd us Yesterday. ~ William Muir
Passing Moments quotes by William Muir
I have the happiness of a passing moment, and what more can mortal ask? ~ George Gissing
Passing Moments quotes by George Gissing
You must put aside the passing moments of terror and temptation, and focus on what's most important in the ~ Anthony Robbins
Passing Moments quotes by Anthony Robbins
The passing moment is all we can be sure of; it is only common sense to extract its utmost value from it. ~ W. Somerset Maugham
Passing Moments quotes by W. Somerset Maugham
Time is relative; its only worth depends upon what we do as it is passing. ~ Albert Einstein
Passing Moments quotes by Albert Einstein
I am a clown...and I collect moments. ~ Heinrich Boll
Passing Moments quotes by Heinrich Boll
When you are not making the present moment into a means to an end, you also are not making every human being you meet - in your business and even at home, in your family - into a means to an end. ~ Eckhart Tolle
Passing Moments quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Hope is a path on the mountainside. At first there is no path. But then there are people passing that way. And there is a path. - LU XUN ~ Jacqueline Novogratz
Passing Moments quotes by Jacqueline Novogratz
Where do we record the passing of wildlife? Who mourns the silent deaths of the small? ~ O.R. Melling
Passing Moments quotes by O.R. Melling
He wasn't a man given to romance, but the perfect weight of this woman in his arms and the majesty of the skies above them filled him with an unexpected sense of peace. Moments later he carried her ~ Kitty French
Passing Moments quotes by Kitty French
When you're near books, amazing things happen. They can call to you just by being in the same space as you. It can be a feeling, the color or texture of a cover, or the way it somehow sets itself apart from its neighbors and asks you to open it. Then comes the crack of the spine, the random, or not-so-random-at-all page you open to, and finally the completely surprising and unexpected words you read. In that moment, you are the only person in the world holding that book and touching its pages. You can stand there for an hour and keep reading--or put it back and start again.

That can't happen of a screen. Other wonderful things can, but not that. And moments like those--of time stopping, eyes searching and minds dreaming--are rare and important in our fast-paced lives. We must protect the possibility of them.

Good luck to us! ~ Regina Spektor
Passing Moments quotes by Regina Spektor
Music is a very big participant in everything I do, from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed. ~ Zoe Saldana
Passing Moments quotes by Zoe Saldana
The article was written in scraps of time, between snatched moments of sleep. This can't be normal, she thought, exhilarated, typing away in her slip at three in the morning. She'd been brought up to believe in regular work that took place in nice, clean offices, between fixed hours. Yet here she was, in a hotel room that could be anywhere, weaving a story into being and feeling like if she stopped for a second to breathe, the whole thing would fall apart. As long as she got the next sentence out, and the one after that, she'd be all right. ~ Jeremy Tiang
Passing Moments quotes by Jeremy Tiang
Every fairy tale, it seems, concludes with the bland phrase "happily ever after." Yet every couple I have ever known would agree that nothing about marriage is forever happy. There are moments of bliss, to be sure, and lengthy spans of satisfied companionship. Yet these come at no small effort, and the girl who reads such fiction dreaming her troubles will end ere she departs the altar is well advised to seek at once a rational women to set her straight. ~ Catherine Gilbert Murdock
Passing Moments quotes by Catherine Gilbert Murdock
Everything we do is escapism, because we'll all be dead and everything we do is completely meaningless. Why brush your teeth? Why not be in the park with the bums passing a short dog? Why pay taxes, why get educated? Of course literature is an escape. You have to fill the hours. ~ T.C. Boyle
Passing Moments quotes by T.C. Boyle
The things we remember the clearest aren't necessarily the big, heart-stopping moments everyone expects. They're the little things that add up. The little things most people look over but that mean the most. ~ Emma Hart
Passing Moments quotes by Emma Hart
You are taken, shaken, by moments when the improbability of our lives comes over you like a fever. Everything is remarkable, people, living, events present themselves to you with the immediacy of players in some barbarous and splendid drama that it seems we are part of. You have been given new eyes. ~ Doris Lessing
Passing Moments quotes by Doris Lessing
When you see runners in town is easy to distinguish beginners from veterans. The ones panting are beginners; the ones with quiet, measured breathing are the veterans. Their hearts, lost in thought, slowly tick away time. When we pass each other on the road, we listen to the rhythm of each other's breathing, and sense the way the other person is ticking away the moments. ~ Haruki Murakami
Passing Moments quotes by Haruki Murakami
A person can learn a lot from a dog, even a loopy one like ours. Marley taught me about living each day with unbridled exuberance and joy, about seizing the moment and following your heart. He taught me to appreciate the simple things-a walk in the woods, a fresh snowfall, a nap in a shaft of winter sunlight. And as he grew old and achy, he taught me about optimism in the face of adversity. Mostly, he taught me about friendship and selflessness and, above all else, unwavering loyalty. ~ John Grogan
Passing Moments quotes by John Grogan
I like skiing, among other things, because I have moments when I am alone in the mountains. That's fantastic, when there's nobody around you. You see miles around you, and the sun is almost down . ~ Roman Polanski
Passing Moments quotes by Roman Polanski
Soul, love, joy and natural beauty shines first from within. Make time for quiet reflective moments. Be still and know there is more than just Botox and pink martinis for women over 40. ~ Machel Shull
Passing Moments quotes by Machel Shull
In like manner the effect of every action is measured by the depth of the sentiment from which it proceeds. The great man knew not that he was great. It took a century or two for that fact to appear. What he did, he did, he did because he must; it was the most natural thing in the world, and grew out of the circumstances of the moment. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Passing Moments quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The perfection of conversation is not to play a regular sonata, but, like the AEolian harp, to await the inspiration of the passing breeze. ~ Edmund Burke
Passing Moments quotes by Edmund Burke
He knelt and bent lower, till her breath warmed his face, and in a moment his cheek was in contact with hers. She was sleeping soundly, and upon her eyelashes there lingered tears ... ~ Thomas Hardy
Passing Moments quotes by Thomas Hardy
For those of us with BPD, entering into a shared experience means passing through the ring of fire that leaves us feeling even more burned - and in this case branded with a label no one would ever choose to wear. ~ Kiera Van Gelder
Passing Moments quotes by Kiera Van Gelder
Some of your most powerful intentions are born in your moments of greatest contrast. ~ Michael Thomas Sunnarborg
Passing Moments quotes by Michael Thomas Sunnarborg
My best source of grounding are animals and nature. Animals live more in the moment and don't worry so much! And nature is proof of a greater power than myself. Both put things in perspective, or at least gently move us forward. ~ Kristin Bauer Van Straten
Passing Moments quotes by Kristin Bauer Van Straten
The moments that we have with friends and family, the chances that we have to make a big difference in the world or even to make a small difference to the ones we love, all those wonderful chances that life gives us, life also takes away. It can happen fast and a whole lot sooner than you think. ~ Larry Page
Passing Moments quotes by Larry Page
Life is beautiful every moment ..even the bad moments have something beautiful behind.. ~ Nandini Deka
Passing Moments quotes by Nandini Deka
He looked at the houses he had been passing these weeks and though he had never studied them carefully they had become familiar through the process of seeing them so often, and he was now impressed with the change in their appearance as he looked at them through the gray of the air and whiteness of the snow, each house, shrub, tree, bush and mailbox trimmed with snow and blending into the air as if they were just a picture projected upon the still, pearly grayness, just an impression created by the silent snow, a picture on the edge and verge of disappearing and leaving only the air and snow through which he now lightly walked.
It did not seem possible, but the air was even softer and quieter. He continued walking alongside his prints feeling he could walk forever, that as long as the silent snow continued falling he could continue walking, and as he did he would leave behind all worries and cares, all horrors of the past and future. There would be nothing to bother him or torture his mind and fill his body with tremors of fear, the dark night of the soul over. There would only be himself and the soft, silent snow; and each flake, in its own life, its own separate and distinct entity, would bring with it its own joy, and he would easily partake of that joy as he continued walking, the gentle, silent snow falling ever so quietly, ever so joyously ... yes, and ever so love-ing-ly ... loveing-ly.... ~ Hubert Selby Jr.
Passing Moments quotes by Hubert Selby Jr.
Every day of your life, you have information that enters your head, and that information informs your understanding of things, or shifts it, or changes it, or deepens it, or confuses you. Every day, every moment of every day - it's like this thing that happens. ~ Charlie Kaufman
Passing Moments quotes by Charlie Kaufman
Eclipse of the light of heaven, eclipse of God - such indeed is the character of the historic hour through which the world is now passing ~ Martin Buber
Passing Moments quotes by Martin Buber
Millions of microscopic fragments of Julia now lay, invisibly, on the speckled beige linoleum tiles of the classroom floor. What was left in her chair was a phantom of Julia, which she learned to project at these moments, by sheer force of will, until she could resemble herself, a process that would take days, even weeks, and was never entirely successful. ~ Suzanne Berne
Passing Moments quotes by Suzanne Berne
My children, as long as you live, the shadow of the Hiss Case will brush you. In every pair of eyes that rests on you, you will see pass, like a cloud passing behind a woods in winter, the memory of your father - dissembled in friendly eyes, lurking in unfriendly eyes. ~ Whittaker Chambers
Passing Moments quotes by Whittaker Chambers
I want to create a foundation, like a maison, in my home in the Marais. I am going to leave everything there. I am only passing through. I'm not a proprietor of anything, even if I have homes and things. ~ Azzedine Alaia
Passing Moments quotes by Azzedine Alaia
She writhed helplessly against his steely grip, her frantic movement only furthering the progress of his softly caressing tongue. In moments, Hazard forced a shuddering moan from her and quivering she gasped in shallow rapturous sighs. ~ Susan Johnson
Passing Moments quotes by Susan Johnson
I heard an airplane passing overhead. I wished I was on it. ~ Charles Bukowski
Passing Moments quotes by Charles Bukowski
Concerning all acts of iniative and creation, there is one elementary truth- that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves, too. ~ W. H. Murray
Passing Moments quotes by W. H. Murray
The things that I have said when I was young and curious about whatever the subject matter was, I respect those - those are growing pains. Even if you make mistakes, I go back to those things, my not-so-great moments because those are my truest moments; those are my human moments. I'm not even mad at the things I said that were a little dicey. ~ Nas
Passing Moments quotes by Nas
If it is the quality of your consciousness at this moment that determines the future, then what is it that determines the quality of your consciousness? Your degree of presence. So the only place where true change can occur and where the past can be dissolved is the Now. ~ Eckhart Tolle
Passing Moments quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Because time does the job, dynamite can't touch. (Samuel Hamilton) ~ John Steinbeck
Passing Moments quotes by John Steinbeck
The result that Noether obtained was stunning. She showed that to every continuous symmetry of the laws of physics there corresponds a conservation law and vice versa. In particular, the familiar symmetry of the laws under translations corresponds to conservation of momentum, the symmetry with respect to the passing of time (the fact that the laws do not change with time) gives us conservation of energy, and the symmetry under rotations produces conservation of angular momentum. Angular momentum is a quantity characterizing the amount of rotation an object or a system possesses (for a pointlike object it is the product of the distance from the axis of rotation and the momentum). A common manifestation of conservation of angular momentum can be seen in figure skating-when the ice skater pulls her hands inward she spins much faster. ~ Mario Livio
Passing Moments quotes by Mario Livio
He hesitated for a moment. Then he said softly, 'I love you, Mother.' He took my hand and kissed it, and folded my fingers round the stem of the rose. He had stripped it of its thorns.
I was too moved to speak. But maternal affection was not the only emotion that prevented utterance; as I watched him walk away, his head high and his step firm, anger boiled within me. I knew I had to conquer it before I saw Nefret again, or I would take her by the shoulders and shake her, and demand that she love my son! ~ Elizabeth Peters
Passing Moments quotes by Elizabeth Peters
Borrowing money on what's called 'easy terms,' is a one-way ticket to the Poor House. If you think it ain't a Sucker Game, why is your Banker the richest man in your Town? Why is your Bank the biggest and finest building in your Town? Instead of passing Bills to make borrowing easy, if Congress had passed a Bill that no Person could borrow a cent of Money from any other person, they would have gone down in History as committing the greatest bit of Legislation in the World. ~ Will Rogers
Passing Moments quotes by Will Rogers
Your greatest moments of challenge are a call to defy your timid habits of safety and rush out into life. ~ Bryant McGill
Passing Moments quotes by Bryant McGill
The boundaries of democracy have to be widened so as to include economic equality also. This is the great revolution through which we are all passing. ~ Jawaharlal Nehru
Passing Moments quotes by Jawaharlal Nehru
There was a moment in my life when I really wanted to kill myself. And there was one other moment when I was close to that ... But even in my most jaded times, I had some hope. ~ Gerard Way
Passing Moments quotes by Gerard Way
The present flowed by them like a stream. The tree rustled. It had made music before they were born, and would continue after their deaths, but its song was of the moment. The moment had passed. The tree rustled again. Their senses were sharpened, and they seemed to apprehend life. Life passed. The tree rustled again. ~ E. M. Forster
Passing Moments quotes by E. M. Forster
There is no definitive census of all the intelligent species in the universe. Not only are there perennial arguments about what qualifies as intelligence, but each moment and everywhere, civilizations rise and fall, much as the stars are born and die. Time devours all. Yet every species has its unique way of passing on its wisdom through the ages, its way of making thoughts visible, tangible, frozen for a moment like a bulwark against the irresistible tide of time. Everyone makes books. ~ Ken Liu
Passing Moments quotes by Ken Liu
I keep a notebook of the things I need to get done in a day, week, month along with my overarching goals. Whenever I have a couple moments on set or on a plane, I work on ticking off my to-do list. ~ Karlie Kloss
Passing Moments quotes by Karlie Kloss
So in his own way Guy Clinch confronted the central question of his time, a question you saw being asked and answered everywhere you looked, in every headline and haircut: if, at any moment, nothing might matter, then who said that nothing didn't matter already? ~ Martin Amis
Passing Moments quotes by Martin Amis
The sad truth is, John and I and the kids only took Route 66 once on our trips to Disneyland. Our family, like the rest of America, succumbed to the lure of faster highways, more direct routes, higher speed limits. We forgot about taking the slow way. It makes you wonder if something inside us knows that our lives are going to pass faster than we could ever realize. So we run around like chickens about to lose our heads. Which makes our little two- or three-week vacations with our families more important than ever...
As for the time that elapsed between those vacations, that's another thing altogether. It seems to have all passed breathlessly, like some extended whisper of days, months, years, decades. (pp.39-40) ~ Michael Zadoorian
