I refused to follow some religion I wasn't even sure I believed in. Hypocrites were the worst kind of sinners, and I wasn't going to be lumped in with them. ~ Melissa Pearl
Pearl quotes by Melissa Pearl
It is the time to tremendous awakening toward "inquisitiveness" with cross-cultural sharing through technology and inner insights. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Her little hands, Crumb. Her little paws, like a child's. She has no guile in her. And she never speaks. And if she does I hate to bend my head to hear what she says. And in the pause I can hear my heart. Her little bits of embroidery, her scraps of silk, her halcyon sleeves, she cut out of the cloth some admirer gave her once, some poor boy struck with love for her...and yet she has never succumbed. Her little sleeves, her seed pearl necklace...she has nothing...she expects nothing...' A tear at last sneaks from Henry's eye, meanders down his cheek and vanishes into the mottled grey and ginger of his beard. ~ Hilary Mantel
Pearl quotes by Hilary Mantel
A high-mature digital organization is shifting from "pushing" stuff to the digital channel into "pulling" resources up for problem-solving. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
A learning mind has more dots to connect for sparking innovation. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
is a pearl, and a pearl buried in a dung heap is no less valuable for its surroundings. ~ Christine Merrill
Pearl quotes by Christine Merrill
The big "WHEN" about change is not just a particular moment, but a thought-out planning with clear defined timelines. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Queen and huntress, chaste and fair,
Now the sun is laid to sleep,
Seated in thy silver chair,
State in wonted manner keep:
Hesperus entreats thy light,
Goddess excellently bright.
Earth, let not thy envious shade
Dare itself to interpose,
Cynthia's shining orb was made
Heaven to clear when day did close:
Bless us then with wished sight,
Goddess excellently bright.
Lay thy bow of pearl apart,
And thy crystal-shining quiver,
Give unto the flying hart
Space to breath, how short soever:
Thou that mak'st a day of night-
Goddess excellently bright. ~ Ben Jonson
Pearl quotes by Ben Jonson
My family brought me up to be very assimilated and accepting of everyone. But I do get frustrated when I see other Asians who behave in a way that reflects a stereotype. ~ Pearl Tan
Pearl quotes by Pearl Tan
The brain is to mind as the eye is to sight. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Pearl II [10w]
If the world's your pearl then you're an empty shell. ~ Beryl Dov
Pearl quotes by Beryl Dov
The sky was packed

which by appearing endless seems inevitable.
The flag droops straight down. The horse
in dry sand walks with a chirping noise
from friction of the particles
and counterarguments like pack ice
puff in the waves there, blowing fountains
of pearl. The ground. ~ Lyn Hejinian
Pearl quotes by Lyn Hejinian
All the home I know is a hotel. Why, I don't even have a dog ... I don't know the first thing about cooking or taking care of a house. ~ Pearl White
Pearl quotes by Pearl White
THIS TORTURE
Why should we tell you our love stories
when you spill them together like blood in the dirt?
Love is a pearl lost on the ocean floor,
or a fire we can't see,
but how does saying that
push us through the top of the head into
the light above the head?
Love is not
an iron pot, so this boiling energy
won't help.
Soul, heart, self.
Beyond and within those
is one saying,
How long before I'm free of this torture! ~ Rumi
Pearl quotes by Rumi
We draw our lines around these moments of pain, and remain upon our islands, and they cannot hurt us. They are covered with a smooth, safe, nacreous layer to let them slip, pearl-like, from our souls without real pain. Fiction ~ Neil Gaiman
Pearl quotes by Neil Gaiman
Try to avoid complaints. Self-pity even when legitimate never fails to undermine your strength.
~ Mariane Pearl
Pearl quotes by Mariane Pearl
How to catch a crook? Ask him if he knows anybody strait. ~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Pearl quotes by Bangambiki Habyarimana
From that house there has come so much life that it ought never to die or fall into ruin ... For me that house was a gateway to America. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
Be born anywhere, little embryo novelist, but do not be born under the shadow of a great creed, not under the burden of original sin, not under the doom of Salvation. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
At root, a pearl is a 'disturbance' a beauty caused by something that isn't supposed to be there, about which something needs to be done. It is the interruption of equilibrium that creates beauty. Beauty is a response to provocation, to intrusion ... The pearl's beauty is made as a result of insult ... ~ Julia Cameron
Pearl quotes by Julia Cameron
Because sometimes love just needs a witness ... Somebody to testify. Sometimes love just needed somebody to step forward and say, Here I am, Spirit. Send me. ~ Pearl Cleage
Pearl quotes by Pearl Cleage
You're nothing but an intruder. A germ. A piece of sand agitating my oyster. But you're not a pearl; you're a tumor or a wart or a cyst. ~ Ainslie Hogarth
Pearl quotes by Ainslie Hogarth
As for inhibitions, I've spent a lifetime developing them, and I don't intend to lose them. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
There never was a woman so ill-suited to public life as I am. I have had to whip myself, as it were, into society, and the loneliness of it all has been terrific. ~ Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie
Pearl quotes by Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie
In life there are no Unities, but three Incomprehensibles: Destiny, Man, and Woman. ~ Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie
Pearl quotes by Pearl Mary Teresa Craigie
I use Pearl Eliminator Pedals and I swear by them. ~ Joey Jordison
Pearl quotes by Joey Jordison
We were facing a great number of uncertainties and dangers. First, whether the Russians would treat us decently, us who had lived through the German occupation; whether the survivors from Transnistria would come back; how many had survived the retreat of the Germans; whether our friends and relatives in the Russian army and those who had fled voluntarily would come home; whether any of them had survived the almost three years of war; whether we'll have food to survive. The Russian military, in pursuit of the retreating Germans, were angry, aggressive and contemptuous of the local population. The ubiquitous question: Why did they kill all the other Jews and left you alive? That thought implied that the survivors were all collaborators of the Nazis, whether they were Jewish or not. ~ Pearl Fichman
Pearl quotes by Pearl Fichman
I look in the jewelry box where Joanie found the drugs. She showed me a miniature Ziploc bag filled with a clear, hard rock.

"What is this?" I said. I never did drugs, so I had no idea. Heroin? Cocaine? Crack? Ice? "What is this?" I screamed at Alex, who screamed back, "It's not like I shoot it!"

A plastic ballerina pops up and slowly twirls to a tinkling song whose sound is discordant and deformed. The pink satin liner is dirty, and other than a black pearl necklace, the box holds only rusty paper clips and rubber bands noosed with Alex's dark hair. I see a note stuck to the mirror and pick up the jewelry box and move the ballerina aside. She twirls against my finger. The note says, I wouldn't hide them in the same place twice.

I let out a short breath through my nose. Good one, Alex. I close the jewelry box and shake my head, missing her tremendously. I wish she never went back to boarding school, and I don't understand her sudden change of plans. What did they fight about? What could have been so bad? ~ Kaui Hart Hemmings
Pearl quotes by Kaui Hart Hemmings
The digital capability is modular, dynamic, and nonlinear, having many visible and invisible business elements, for improving organizational competency, and enabling business strategy. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
The edge of something mostly buried in the sand caught the sun, and I bent to pick up a pearl nautilus. Simple and uncomplicatedly lovely, a pearl nautilus whispered its beauty. It wasn't showy like a cameo or frog shell, with their twists and nubs and variations. It never competed for attention, but it held and reflected a prism of light that perfectly complimented its surroundings. Someone else may have overlooked a pearl nautilus, but I preferred it. - Nicole Abbot (Whisper of Light) ~ Jennifer DeLucy
Pearl quotes by Jennifer DeLucy
Sisterhood is a funny thing. It's easy to recognize, but hard to define. ~ Pearl Cleage
Pearl quotes by Pearl Cleage
My first vivid memory is ... when first I looked into her face and she looked into mine. That I do remember, and that exchanging looks I have carried with me all of my life. We recognized each other. I was her child and she was my mother. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
Organizational culture is just like the "Operation System" of the organization, you need reboot periodically to keep it running smoothly. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
The scoreboard is strategy focused, and the dashboard is operation oriented. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Corporate brand, culture, knowledge, and risk management are all boardroom concerns. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Pearl Harbor is strenuously respectful of contemporary sensitivities, sometimes at the cost of accuracy. ~ A.O. Scott
Pearl quotes by A.O. Scott
Reading has always brought me pure joy. I read to encounter new worlds and new ways of looking at the world. I read to enlarge my horizons, to gain wisdom, to experience beauty, to understand myself better, and for the pure wonderment of it all. I read and marvel over how writers use language in ways I never thought of. I read for company, and for escape. Because I am incurably interested in the lives of other people, both friends and strangers, I read to meet myriad folks and enter their lives- for me, a way of vanquishing the "otherness" we all experience. ~ Nancy Pearl
Pearl quotes by Nancy Pearl
Dynamic capability is the ability to reconfigure your organization in the way that has the effect of increasing its variety. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Death is a great price to pay for a red rose", cried the Nightingale, "and Life is very dear to all. " It is pleasant to sit in the green wood, and watch the Sun in his chariot of gold, and the Moon in her chariot of pearl. Sweet is the scent oft he hawthorn, and sweet are the bluebells that hide in the valley, and the heather that blows on the hill. Yet Love is better than Life, and what is the heart of a bird compared to the heart of a man? ~ Oscar Wilde
Pearl quotes by Oscar Wilde
Make love! He disliked the phrase. Could one make love? ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
You ought to use a little of that siren song on Alan, my pearl. The boy needs to loosen his cravat. ~ Jaclyn Dolamore
Pearl quotes by Jaclyn Dolamore
Creativity isn't necessarily a paint-by-numbers process, more as a "connect-the-dots" adventure. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Every object in nature is impressed with God's footsteps, and every day repeats the wonders of creation. There is not an object, be it pebble or pearl, weed or rose, the flower-spangled sward beneath, or the star-spangled sky above, not a worm or an angel, a drop of water or a boundless ocean, in which intelligence may not discern, and piety adore, the providence of Him who took our nature that He might save our souls. ~ Thomas Guthrie
Pearl quotes by Thomas Guthrie
Fame is a pearl many dive for and only a few bring up. Even when they do, it is not perfect, and they sigh for more, and lose better things in struggling for them. ~ Louisa May Alcott
Pearl quotes by Louisa May Alcott
The pervasive digitalization or IT consumerism requires the balance of the "old experience" and the "new way to do things," the "learning and doing. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you. ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower
Pearl quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
there is no such condition in human affairs as absolute truth. There is only truth as people see it, and truth, even in fact, may be kaleidoscopic in its variety. The ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
Men cannot be free in a nation where women are forbidden freedom. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
If there is but one pearl of wisdom I have to impart to you, after all my observations here thus far, it is do not take yourself too seriously. Because when you get here, you might just find that you are not exactly who or what you thought you were. ~ Natasha Rendell
Pearl quotes by Natasha Rendell
Since it was my car, and since I felt confident it would make Marcus miserable, I pushed the Pearl Jam cassette into the tape deck as I got back on the freeway and turned it up. After a couple of tracks, Bas got hung up on trying to figure out the lyrics to "Yellow Ledbetter" - an unattainable goal since they were basically undecipherable sounds with a few words sprinkled in. The song was all feeling, but he was determined. We listened to it over and over, and caught a little more each time. Metaphorically, the song felt perfect for the mission we were on. ~ Veronica Rossi
Pearl quotes by Veronica Rossi
Lately she can read a novel in two hours. She has always been an avid reader, but these days she can read much faster. The colors, the conversations, everything is much more vibrant and inclusive, as if opening a book releases genies trapped inside. The scenes and people between their covers sometimes seem more vivid than real life, with their sunny, pearl-toothed characters, the witty conversation, the handsome stranger squeezed into a subway car or knocking about on the street. Sometimes, when she finishes a book at record speed, Dana feels a slight letdown, as if a good friend has hung up the phone in the middle of a conversation. ~ Susan H. Crawford
Pearl quotes by Susan H. Crawford
The novel has always been a contradictory form. Here is a long form narrative mainly read originally by consumers who were only newly literate or limited in their literacy. The novel ranked below poetry, essay and history in prestige for a long time. ~ Matthew Pearl
Pearl quotes by Matthew Pearl
Love changes," she replied. "When the flame dies, the glow remains, but it no longer centers upon one human creature and it warms the whole soul. Then the soul looks at all human creatures with love diffused. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
To repay evil with kindness is the proof of a good man; a superior man blames himself, a common man blames others. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
A pearl is a beautiful thing that is produced by an injured life. It is the tear [that results] from the injury of the oyster. The treasure of our being in this world is also produced by an injured life. If we had not been wounded, if we had not been injured, then we will not produce the pearl. ~ Stephan A. Hoeller
Pearl quotes by Stephan A. Hoeller
Breaking rules is indeed an important part of creativity. Innovation needs a level of guidance. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
This was the only door she ever opened, the door into herself. And her taciturnity was such that in a mirror, where every woman smiles at her reflection, she struck at herself over and over again, hammering her own effigy at her dumb forge. No flame, no air. Clad in red velvet, adorned in white, in black or pearl, her face heavily made up beneath the large pale forehead. In the heart of her room, encircled by candelabras, nothing but herself; a self always unseizable, and whose many faces she was forever unable to assemble in a single look. ~ Valentine Penrose
Pearl quotes by Valentine Penrose
Do you know how a pearl comes to be?"
"Oysters make them, from a bit of sand."
"Aiyah. From a bit of sand." He rolled the pearl between his fingers. "All pearls begin as something unpleasant that the oysters cannot expel from themselves, even though they may want to. So they embrace these things that will not leave them, shaping them and smoothing away the sharp edges, until over time, they make of these unwanted things great treasures. ~ C.L. Wilson
Pearl quotes by C.L. Wilson
If you were ever dumped after knitting a guy a sweater, consider the possibility that the problem was with the sweater, not you. The recipient probably took one look at the thing, imagined a lifetime of having to pretend to like (and wear) this sweater and others of its like, and saw no choice but to flee into the night ~ Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
Pearl quotes by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
The nutshell version is that you need to think about the employee mindsets, behaviors, knowledge, and expertise that are potentially linked to the performance outcomes of interest. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
I think I'm just supposed to stay open and let the Knowing be a way to show other people how to listen for the truth rather than hide from it." - Grace to Aunt Pearl ~ Eldonna Edwards
Pearl quotes by Eldonna Edwards
Information Management becomes the core capability of the digital organization, and it is the key differentiator between digital leaders and laggards. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Wherefore should I not offer my congratulations? But the very fact of them being Sayyids, those fountains of felicity, demands heartly exertions in support of Islam and their ancestor Muhammad the Lord of Apostles. Let two Kaftans of honor for the two brothers be issued from my wardrobe and let them be sent with two swords, jewel-hilted and provided with pearl mounted belts, let Jamdat-ul-Mulk write much praise and congratulations when sending these presents. ~ Aurangzeb
Pearl quotes by Aurangzeb
You cannot "disrupt" without incremental innovation being part of the process. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Time is not linear - and nor is it circular. Time itself does not 'continue'.

Time. Just. Is. It flows - within, without, around...and with...itself. ~ Pearl Kirkby
Pearl quotes by Pearl Kirkby
It's only knitting and it's one of the few times in your life when there are no bad consequences to a mistake. ~ Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
Pearl quotes by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
Innovation becomes possible only if people can step out of their comfort zone. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
The innovation indicators vary depending on who is doing the measuring, and how they are measuring. It's contextual. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
I'm going to tell you a phenomenal anticlimactic story that will fuck you up. But first I must roll, lick, burn, blow... ~ A.K. Kuykendall
Pearl quotes by A.K. Kuykendall
Some calamities - the 1929 stock market crash, Pearl Harbor, 9/11 - have come like summer lightning, as bolts from the blue. The looming crisis of America's Ponzi entitlement structure is different. Driven by the demographics of an aging population, its causes, timing and scope are known. ~ George Will
Pearl quotes by George Will
I think about the time Mitch asked me why I was such a happy little guy. I was five years old. Pearl had been gone a few weeks. I thought really hard for an answer even though I think he'd gone about his business without expecting one.
Then I said, "I think it's because my mother loves me so much."
He gave me this look of utter pity, like I was the bravest kid in the world. He missed the point completely, you know? ~ Catherine Ryan Hyde
Pearl quotes by Catherine Ryan Hyde
I bind the Sun's throne with a burning zone, And the Moon's with a girdle of pearl; The volcanoes are dim, and the stars reel and swim, When the whirlwinds my banner unfurl. ~ Percy Bysshe Shelley
Pearl quotes by Percy Bysshe Shelley
If life were known one moment ahead, how could it be endured? ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
When men destroy their old gods they will find new ones to take their place. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
Youth is slipping, dripping, pearl on pearl, away. ~ Louise Imogen Guiney
Pearl quotes by Louise Imogen Guiney
The strategy is about putting a good team together to give you a multifaceted picture zooming into the business culture. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
The discipline of focus that is necessary to think profoundly is certainly difficult for many people to achieve. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Over? Did you say over? Nothing is over until WE decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? ~ John Belushi In Animal House
Pearl quotes by John Belushi In Animal House
Pearl is a disease of oysters. Levant is a disease of Hollywood. ~ Kenneth Tynan
Pearl quotes by Kenneth Tynan
She had wanted me to hold rape inside me like a dark pearl, keep it in there, as it grew, as I grew cramped, as it overtook me as hidden things do. Secrets become lies. I'd carried in every step I took this lie, the shame of it. ~ Aspen Matis
Pearl quotes by Aspen Matis
In the sea of my emotions, his presence is like a pearl in the oyster. Very hard to locate, yet very precious and still beautiful. ~ Mehek Bassi
Pearl quotes by Mehek Bassi
The first peaches of spring - the first peaches! Buy, eat, purge your bowels of the poisons of winter! ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
For generations fathers had watched earth and sea. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
Define clearly how you will measure success in meeting the business purpose and vision. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Human's mind is the most valuable thing to shape every progress, but also the root cause of all mankind problems. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Nothing is menial where there is love. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Pearl quotes by Pearl S. Buck
Some men can be very rude. On the other hand, some clients are absolute angels. One john always brought me a gift every time he came to see me. He brought me a pearl necklace, a ring, a bra or something. But eventually, as much as I really loved all the gifts, he fell in love with me, and he tried to weasel his way into my life. It was too much and I sort of had to 'break up with him. ~ Annie Sprinkle
Pearl quotes by Annie Sprinkle
The BoDs and business leaders must work with the right mindset to make good policies and create an inclusive organization with every dip in the business life cycle. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Thats what a ship is, you know. Its not a keel and a hull and a deck and sails. Thats what a ship needs. But what a ship is. What the Black Pearl really is ... is freedom. ~ Johnny Depp
Pearl quotes by Johnny Depp
The high-quality communication is to bridge differences and encourage problem-solving. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Judgment and decision making are often considered together. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
The "result" of micromanagement is perhaps tangible in the short run, but more often causes damage for the long term. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Its like reproaching someone who has no ear for music because he's bored at a symphony concert. Is it fair to blame me because you ascribed to me qualities that I hadn't got? I never tried to deceive you by pretending I was anything I wasn't. I was just pretty and gay. You don't ask for a pearl necklace or a sable coat at a booth in a fair; you ask for a tin trumpet and a toy balloon. ~ W. Somerset Maugham
Pearl quotes by W. Somerset Maugham
Adaptability is not just a soft skill, but a hard capability. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
At the core," means," is an implementation and capability is an abstraction. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
Being innovative is more important than any specific innovation. Innovativeness is a way of thinking. ~ Pearl Zhu
Pearl quotes by Pearl Zhu
I believe the defining moment was when certain persons, who shall remain nameless, objected to my fuchsia silk striped waistcoat. I loved that waistcoat. I put my foot down, right then and there; I do not mind telling you!" To punctuate his deeply offended feelings, he stamped one silver-and-pearl-decorated high heel firmly. "No one tells me what I can and cannot wear!" He snapped up a lace fan from where it lay on a hall table and fanned himself vigorously with it for emphasis. ~ Gail Carriger
Pearl quotes by Gail Carriger
Believe me, I know people who have doting Grandmas. Jessica's Grandma Pearl spent four years knitting her a blanket. Four years! And she's got arthritis. I wonder what Grandma Pearl would think if she knew Jessica lost her virginity to Michael Greenberg under the blanket she spent four years knitting with her crooked fingers. ~ Simone Elkeles
Pearl quotes by Simone Elkeles
My cooking is so bad my kids thought Thanksgiving was to commemorate Pearl Harbor. ~ Phyllis Diller
Pearl quotes by Phyllis Diller
Whatever pearl you seek, look for the pearl within the pearl! ~ Rumi
