We can all afford to do a little soul-searching about the choices we make and the way we live our lives, but sometimes searching one's soul doesn't provide the answers we seek. ~ Danielle De Niese
Soul Searching quotes by Danielle De Niese
I definitely had to do some soul searching, and there would be a lot of times where I would sit back and look at the Internet and say to myself, 'This is a way of being able to communicate with all my fans all over the world, other than just being in New York and only hearing the New York side of things.' ~ Raekwon
Soul Searching quotes by Raekwon
We can be walking around in this world, with bits and pieces of our souls scattered in different time loops and space cracks. You feel like you are always looking for yourself, because you actually are always looking for yourself! You're always looking for those bits and pieces of you. You've got to sit down and remember where you left them at. You've got to quiet the noise and go back to those loops in time and cracks in space that you forgot about and you need to understand yourself in those moments, and embrace yourself. And maybe even embrace those who were around you, with you. That's how you get those pieces back, that's how you sew them back into you. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Soul Searching quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Yoga is establishing connection with the every cell of the body and with every soul of the cosmos. ~ Amit Ray
Soul Searching quotes by Amit Ray
We already know way too much, but don't know what to do with it. Beneath all that is a soul searching for how to have fun, in the deepest sense of the word, and how to cause fun for others. ~ Darrell Calkins
Soul Searching quotes by Darrell Calkins
An empty canvas is the safest addiction in the world, art is the only drug that won't kill you, instead it'll save your life. ~ Nikki Rowe
Soul Searching quotes by Nikki Rowe
Tatiana had imagined her Alexander since she was a child, before she believed that someone like him was even possible. When she was a little girl, she dreamed of a fine world in which a good man walked its winding roads, perhaps somewhere in his wandering soul searching for her. ~ Paullina Simons
Soul Searching quotes by Paullina Simons
We cannot achieve personal enlightenment – a clarification of our souls – until we cease deluding ourselves. We must accept that life includes witnessing and personally experiencing pain. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Soul Searching quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Private soul-searching is not enough to determine your call to the ministry. The judgment of the people of God must be sought; long before the time when it must be given formally it should be sought informally. ~ Edmund P. Clowney
Soul Searching quotes by Edmund P. Clowney
This year has been full of lessons learned and soul searching and realizing I'm an adult. It's time to take responsibility and not take the easy way out. ~ Nicole Richie
Soul Searching quotes by Nicole Richie
With considerable soul searching, that to the utmost of my ability, I have let truth be the prejudice. ~ W. Eugene Smith
Soul Searching quotes by W. Eugene Smith
An image of that sexy, soul-searching stare sent a bolt of heat through her. Sexy? It wasn't sexy. It was…invasive. And annoying.

And sexy. ~ Christine Bell
Soul Searching quotes by Christine  Bell
Enlightenment isn't about reaching a destination of "knowing", it is about developing consistent vibrational harmony within one's self and with the surrounding world. ~ Alaric Hutchinson
Soul Searching quotes by Alaric Hutchinson
Set your soul in search of th he truth. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Soul Searching quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Soul searching? Aren't you a little young to even think about
that concept?"
"I don't think a broken heart and shattered soul can be defined
by age. However, it can be measured by the process it takes to
heal. ~ Elle A. Rose
Soul Searching quotes by Elle A. Rose
To find peace in any moment all we need to do is respect our own soul ~ Mimi Novic
Soul Searching quotes by Mimi Novic
Hold this rope while I dive into my soul; don't even bother pulling it if I didn't come up on my own. ~ Ahmed Mostafa
Soul Searching quotes by Ahmed Mostafa
He: what made you think I am searching for something in life?

She: you have the saddest eyes I have ever seen in a Man! ~ Avijeet Das
Soul Searching quotes by Avijeet Das
Mind knows the questions, soul knows the answers. ~ Amit Ray
Soul Searching quotes by Amit Ray
FAIR river! in thy bright, clear flow Of crystal, wandering water, Thou art an emblem of the glow Of beauty - the unhidden heart - The playful maziness of art In old Alberto's daughter; But when within thy wave she looks - Which glistens then, and trembles - Why, then, the prettiest of brooks Her worshipper resembles; For in his heart, as in thy stream, Her image deeply lies - His heart which trembles at the beam Of her soul-searching eyes. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
Soul Searching quotes by Edgar Allan Poe
Its hard to explain what you want from your life. The best way to know is to keep your head up, your soul clean and keep moving with the pace of life. It will reveal all to you, when the time is right and the moon is bright. ~ Guru S Gill
Soul Searching quotes by Guru S Gill
I had a moment a few years ago where I wasn't sure if I was acting for myself or because people expected it of me. A bit of a crisis of faith, I suppose. I did some soul-searching, took a break and decided I was going to live my life only for me. ~ Adelaide Kane
Soul Searching quotes by Adelaide Kane
A true suicide is a paced, disciplined certainty. People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call it a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reasons: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching. The only selfishness lies in ruining strangers' days by forcing 'em to witness a grotesqueness. So I'll make a thick turban from several towels to muffle the shot and soak up the blood, and do it in the bathtub, so it shouldn't stain any carpets. Last night I left a letter under the manager's day-office door - he'll find it at eight A.M. tomorrow - informing him of the change in my existential status, so with luck an innocent chambermaid will be spared an unpleasant surprise. See, I do think of the little people ~ David Mitchell
Soul Searching quotes by David Mitchell
The most fulfilling adventures happen when you start your journey without knowing where you're going, because only then are you free to experience the unexpected detours you're meant to take. ~ A.J. Darkholme
Soul Searching quotes by A.J. Darkholme
I've grown quite weary of the spunky heroines, brave rape victims, soul-searching fashionistas that stock so many books. I particularly mourn the lack of female villains - good, potent female villains. Not ill-tempered women who scheme about landing good men and better shoes (as if we had nothing more interesting to war over), not chilly WASP mothers (emotionally distant isn't necessarily evil), not soapy vixens (merely bitchy doesn't qualify either). I'm talking violent, wicked women. Scary women. Don't tell me you don't know some. The point is, women have spent so many years girl-powering ourselves - to the point of almost parodic encouragement - we've left no room to acknowledge our dark side. Dark sides are important. They should be nurtured like nasty black orchids. ~ Gillian Flynn
Soul Searching quotes by Gillian Flynn
I'm not making light of prayers here, but of so-called school prayer, which bears as much resemblance to real spiritual experienceas that freeze-dried astronaut food bears to a nice standing rib roast. From what I remember of praying in school, it was almost an insult to God, a rote exercise in moving your mouth while daydreaming or checking out the cutest boy in the seventh grade that was a far, far cry from soul-searching. ~ Anna Quindlen
Soul Searching quotes by Anna Quindlen
Souls spread over the planet and leave no mountain unclimbed, no valley undiscovered, no sea unsailed, ventured even into outer space.
Souls mingle and leave no relationship unattempted, no emotion unfelt, no pleasure and pain unexplored.
Souls plunge into their minds and leave no tale untold, no image unpainted, no melody unheard.
Souls transcend their fantasies and leave no idea unthought, no natural law undescribed, no wisdom undefined.
Souls even pass over the thinkeable and witness ineffable realms of other worlds and their inhabitants.
Curiosity, the drive to experience, the urge of urges, the world's innermost desire. We, souls, are its foremost scouts. We are the embodiment of the purpose of existence. ~ Stefan Emunds
Soul Searching quotes by Stefan Emunds
One can't find what isn't lost and that's why all this soul-searching is futile. ~ Marty Rubin
Soul Searching quotes by Marty Rubin
The voice of Conscience has needed us to know again who we are in reality. ~ Nikhil Karke
Soul Searching quotes by Nikhil Karke
That deep longing that you keep dismissing as impractical, may be the very thing your soul is calling you to do. ~ Renae A. Sauter
Soul Searching quotes by Renae A. Sauter
The word pneuma (breath) shares its origins with the word psyche; they are both considered words for soul. So when there is song in a tale or mythos, we know that the gods are being called upon to breathe their wisdom and power into the matter at hand. We know then that the forces are at work in the spirit world, busy crafting soul. ~ Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Soul Searching quotes by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Life is like a game of chess. To win you have to make a move. Knowing which move to make comes with IN-SIGHT and knowledge, and by learning the lessons that are acculated along the way. We become each and every piece within the game called life! ~ Alan Rufus
Soul Searching quotes by Alan Rufus
Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are. Choosing authenticity means cultivating the courage to be imperfect, to set boundaries, and to allow ourselves to be vulnerable; exercising the compassion that comes from knowing that we are all made of strength and struggle; and nurturing the connection and sense of belonging that can only happen when we believe that we are enough. Authenticity demands Wholehearted living and loving - even when it's hard, even when we're wrestling with the shame and fear of not being good enough, and especially when the joy is so intense that we're afraid to let ourselves feel it. Mindfully practicing authenticity during our most soul-searching struggles is how we invite grace, joy, and gratitude into our lives. ~ Brene Brown
Soul Searching quotes by Brene Brown
I see that dangerous look in your eyes
You're soul searching
But is a soul really worth your whole life ~ Chantal Kreviazuk
Soul Searching quotes by Chantal Kreviazuk
The things I carry are my thoughts. That's it. They are the only weight. My thoughts determine whether I am free and light or burdened. ~ Kamal Ravikant
Soul Searching quotes by Kamal Ravikant
Reach deep within, and reconnect with the essence of your being. ~ Bryant McGill
Soul Searching quotes by Bryant McGill
Give yourself the gift of time in coming to answers for your life ... It takes time, and a lot of introspection and soul-searching, to get clear about what you really want to manifest in your life. ~ David Emerald Womeldorff
Soul Searching quotes by David Emerald Womeldorff
River with no border
the forgetful hand of man

Gather harvest from the fallow land

Take all memory from it
to speak of lonely travellers
who hopelessly took orders

From armies lined within them
marching over fields and valleys

As though they were a river
not a woman nor a man
not a place for which to answer
but a cold and shapeless
journey from the sea ~ Tamara Rendell
Soul Searching quotes by Tamara Rendell
The dialectic case of the 'things we do', the 'things we have done' and the 'things we are going to do' has been haunting present and earlier generations. For ages people have been confronted with the soul-searching question how should I interpret the past and how do I move forward. Linguistic sayings, which were inherited from century to century, gave us a good deal of remarkable advice and moral guidance in this field : " Do what is right and let come what come may ", " Do well and fear not ", " Do well and dread no shame ".
Erik Pevernagie, Never looking back again ~ Erik Pevernagie
Soul Searching quotes by Erik Pevernagie
We must look deep into our soul daily. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Soul Searching quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Perhaps we only leave
So we may once again arrive,
To get a bird's eye view
Of what it means to be alive.
For there is beauty in returning,
Oh how wonderful, how strange,
To see that everything is different
But know it's only you who's changed. ~ Erin Hanson
Soul Searching quotes by Erin Hanson
- If Francis has really made up his soul [...], what lies ahead of him? Hasn't he achieved the great end of life?
- [...] Having got his soul under his eye, so to speak, Francis must now begin to understand it and be worthy of it [...]. Making up a soul isn't an end; it's the new beginning in the middle of life. ~ Robertson Davies
Soul Searching quotes by Robertson Davies
Sometimes we don't even know what we seek anymore. Life halts for a second, and we see a shadow of dreams, some lived, some unlived. So many stories, so many voices and yet each stands distinct for each took a part of your heart, each made a part of your soul. A list of songs, and a whole lot of unkempt moments, a handful of tears and a whole sky of smiles, so much walked and yet such a long path remains, only the steps aren't the same anymore. Words and silence play within and without as nothing seems real in a world that is made of moments, yet the memories bind a reality that shines vividly through a hole of illusions, an illusion of happiness, an illusion of despair, an illusion of love, an illusion of loss. Someday, perhaps in a distant dream, in a known star, there would be a home, where the void of nothingness will forever merge with the wholeness of moments. Someday, in the stillness of a wild heart, we would hold each other in the sky of that dream, that which isn't sought yet found. Because sometimes, we don't even know what we seek anymore. ~ Debatrayee Banerjee
Soul Searching quotes by Debatrayee Banerjee
Clarity within your vibrational energy embraces the journey of your soul giving you clear direction. ~ Debbie A. Anderson
Soul Searching quotes by Debbie A. Anderson
Being able to feel love, loyalty, gratitude and happiness means you have a soul? Then all my pets are bound for heaven. ~ Jury Nel
Soul Searching quotes by Jury Nel
Our souls may be consumed by shadows, but that doesn't mean we have to behave as monsters. ~ Emm Cole
Soul Searching quotes by Emm Cole

Soul Searching quotes by David Mitchell
One of the most trying experiences an individual can go through is the period of doubt, of soul-searching, to determine whether to fight the battle or fly from it," Nixon wrote in Six Crises. "It is in such a period that almost unbearable tensions build up, tensions that can be relieved only by taking action, one way or the other. And significantly, it is this period of crisis conduct that separates the leaders from the followers. ~ David Talbot
Soul Searching quotes by David Talbot
When I'm working on a Slipknot song, it's like a switch flips in my head. I can go there easily - it doesn't take a lot of soul searching - and it's a dark, almost sinister place. Stone Sour is more the way I've always written. It's a different tone. ~ Corey Taylor
Soul Searching quotes by Corey Taylor
These are the rules. First, you don't speak unless I tell you to. Second, you do everything I say. No questions asked. No hesitating or arguing. No attitude." He's staring into the depths of my soul, searching for my reaction to his words. Without thinking, like I always do, I open my mouth to speak. He stares at me with a look of disapproval and shakes his head back and forth. "No words, Ivy. Those are the rules. ~ M.K. Gilher
Soul Searching quotes by M.K. Gilher
With our music, and music that we popularize, we try to reach out and remind people that, when taken out of the hands of a parasite, music is still a great lead into a democratic atmosphere of chaos, where moments of great freedom and where great friends could be found. And that in the world of rapidly dissolving authentic cultures, soul-searching through the music is something that connects you with the most authentic thing there - your savage heart. ~ Eugene Hutz
Soul Searching quotes by Eugene Hutz
You're an immortal, divine being. A little god, and yet, you toil like a slave. Isn't that hilarious? ~ Stefan Emunds
Soul Searching quotes by Stefan Emunds
Sitting infront of my computer
Thinking of the year had ended.
Browsing and looking
Now I am writing.

When I summerized those happening
All is about my soul searching.
I didn't notice that everything
God put those changing.

Words that can't describe
But I feel my heart's desires.
Feeling determined
For God's presence, that's fine.

Patience, immeasurable
Kindness, unconditional.
Love, forever
Forgiven, eternally.

I thank You Lord,
Thank You Jesus Christ.
Amen. ~ Angie Pandan
Soul Searching quotes by Angie Pandan
Maybe we all need to leave our children with a value legacy, and not a financial one. A value for things with a personal touch - an autographed book, a soul-searching letter. ~ Lakshmi Pratury
Soul Searching quotes by Lakshmi Pratury
There weren't any promises of a future life together, either, but he didn't need to live like a monk anymore. Two years was more than enough time for soul-searching and penance. As long as Laney was close enough to touch, to breath in, to taste like his goddamn last meal, he would take whatever she offered and not ask any questions about what it might cost him when she inevitably left. ~ Zoe York
Soul Searching quotes by Zoe York
The lights were off so that his heads could avoid looking at each other because neither of them was currently a particular engaging sight, nor had they been since he had made the error of looking into his soul.
It had indeed been an error.
It had been late one night
of course.
It had been a difficult day
of course.
There had been soulful music playing on the ship's sound system
of course.
And he had, of course, been slightly drunk.
In other words, all the usual conditions that bring on a bout of soul searching had applied, but it had, nevertheless, clearly been an error. ~ Douglas Adams
Soul Searching quotes by Douglas Adams
If one adds a word to a blank sheet of paper but it's left on its own it means nothing. If it's joined by another word it could start to gather momentum. Now if several words are placed together creating meaning and then sprinkled with soul one could have developed purpose. Look into that purpose and you may find the writer. ~ Daniel Kemp
Soul Searching quotes by Daniel Kemp
I don't know one of my friends who is considered a conservative who has not had to go back and thoroughly think through everything. You do a lot of soul-searching - 'cause we are not going to win any popularity contests. ~ Clarence Thomas
Soul Searching quotes by Clarence Thomas
Do you think your soul is more beautiful than your body? ~ Tamara Stamenkovic
Soul Searching quotes by Tamara Stamenkovic
Dr. Turing of Cambridge says that the soul is an illusion and that all that defines us as human beings can be reduced to a series of mechanical operations. ~ Neal Stephenson
Soul Searching quotes by Neal Stephenson
Sometimes you can grow more in a shorter amount of time with the right company than years of soul-searching alone, or by living the same patterns you've lived for your entire life. ~ A.J. Darkholme
Soul Searching quotes by A.J. Darkholme
Some people arrive only when we reach a crossroads within ourselves, when decisions have to be made, when change is inevitable, but we lack the courage to embrace it.
They touch a part of us so deeply that it changes the entire direction of our life, and that exhilarating feeling of love we feel with them, is enough to guide us and give us the strength to take the right road, even if it's on our own. ~ Mimi Novic
Soul Searching quotes by Mimi Novic
I have found the more fantastic the setting, the more truthful the confessions. ~ S. Usher Evans
Soul Searching quotes by S. Usher Evans
No amount of soul searching would fix my past. There was no magical Band-Aid I could stick on my heart, no special glue I could use to make myself whole again. I had shattered to pieces like a fragile vase on concrete; some fragments could be roughly cobbled back together, but many of my vital parts had simply turned to dust, pulverized and scattered by the first gust of wind. ~ Julie Johnson
Soul Searching quotes by Julie Johnson
Serenity is not the conclusion of a soul journey, it is the acceptance of being on a soul journey. ~ Lorraine Nilon
Soul Searching quotes by Lorraine Nilon
I think we need to do some deep soul searching about what's important in our lives and renew our spirit and our spiritual thinking, whether it's through faith-based religion or just through loving nature or helping your fellow man. ~ Louie Schwartzberg
Soul Searching quotes by Louie Schwartzberg
I value and honor the way that my suffering brings me to further search and surrender. ~ Maureen Brady
Soul Searching quotes by Maureen Brady
It took several years of trial and error, soul-searching and hard work to shape the ROI program into the ROI Community. In the first few years, we got to see the power of these gatherings and the resulting connections that spanned the globe. It inspired us to think about how we could transform an annual gathering into a year-round community. ~ Lynn Schusterman
Soul Searching quotes by Lynn Schusterman
I spend my days trying to remember what only my soul knows but my mind can't comprehend. ~ Raneem Kayyali
Soul Searching quotes by Raneem Kayyali
Some people experience a life-changing sensation that transforms how they see the world after a near-death experience, but the way I see it, we're all dying – nay, we're all dead – and it is up to us to be our own self-necromancers to find some form of life and spirit to reanimate the corpse of a life spent wanting. ~ A.J. Darkholme
Soul Searching quotes by A.J. Darkholme
As I explored my soul, now I know I have survived schizophrenia; hearing voices, reduced social engagement, emotional expression and lack of motivation. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Soul Searching quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
It's part organization, part soul-searching, part dream-weaving. ~ Ryder Carroll
Soul Searching quotes by Ryder Carroll
The lovelorn, the cry-for-helpers, all mawkish tragedians who give suicide a bad name are the idiots who rush it, like amateur conductors.A true suicide is a paced, disciplined certainty. People pontificate, 'Suicide is selfishness.' Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call it a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reasons: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize.

Soul Searching quotes by David Mitchell
It is a time for soul-searching, a time to see if our anchor holds. ~ Billy Graham
Soul Searching quotes by Billy Graham
Jamie used the time away from me to do some soul-searching. She finally also did something she'd thought about for a long time. She walked into an Army recruitment office in Nashville and joined the military. She didn't discuss it with me beforehand. Instead she called and said, "I'm joining the Army. It's active duty and I'm going to be a truck driver with an airborne contract." Shocked, I blurted out, "You're going to do what? No you're not."
"What do you mean? I'm gonna be a truck driver in a convoy." I knew she was referring to a seventies country song she likes. Only this wasn't a country song, this was real life.
"Are you crazy? This is not a game. You will hate being a truck driver. You don't even know if you'll like being in the military. Go National Guard or Reserves and see if you like it."
"They said I'm already in. Basic is not for another few months but I'm in and I can't change it."
"Yes you can. You are not in yet. You are not in the military. That was just a recruiter telling you that. Why aren't you going in as an officer? You have a degree. You can make more money."
She seemed annoyed that I was raining on her parade, but I think it was also dawning on her that maybe I was right and she hadn't done the research.
"They told me that it's not really that much more."
I explained to her, "They are lying to you. It is a lot more."
I had no problem with her joining the military. If that's what she wanted to do, I supported it ~ Noah Galloway
Soul Searching quotes by Noah Galloway
Where does your soul walk? Does it walk in the sunlit woods or hide in the shadowy forest? ~ Seth Adam Smith
Soul Searching quotes by Seth Adam Smith
Love is a lonely pursuit. ~ Wyatt B. Pringle, Jr.
Soul Searching quotes by Wyatt B. Pringle, Jr.
Most people seldom discover the sensitivity and tenderness of their own souls! ~ Avijeet Das
Soul Searching quotes by Avijeet Das
My second or third year in the engineering department, I got very frustrated, and I sat down with myself and had a soul-searching conversation with myself and said, 'What I'd really like to do is see if I can write comedy.' ... I moved to L.A. stone cold. Didn't know anybody; didn't know how to go about it. Really started from scratch. ~ Garry Shandling
Soul Searching quotes by Garry Shandling
Love is like the air, water, and everything else, the tangible, the intangible, and the inexplicable. ~ Cecilia Spencer
Soul Searching quotes by Cecilia Spencer
If your art is calling to you, its doing so for a reason. You are feeling a pull toward something for which your soul is yearning. ~ Teresa R. Funke, Bursts Of Brilliance For A Creative Life Blog
Soul Searching quotes by Teresa R. Funke, Bursts Of Brilliance For A Creative Life Blog
Through humility, soul searching, and prayerful contemplation we have gained a new understanding of certain dogmas. The church no longer believes in a literal hell where people suffer. This doctrine is incompatible with the infinite love of God. God is not a judge but a friend and a lover of humanity. God seeks not to condemn but only to embrace. Like the fable of Adam and Eve, we see hell as a literary device. Hell is merely a metaphor for the isolated soul, which like all souls ultimately will be united in love with God. ~ Pope Francis
Soul Searching quotes by Pope Francis
When you smile from within good things come to you from without. Just breathe, your music will come. ~ Lisa Fantino
Soul Searching quotes by Lisa Fantino
No man, with a man's heart in him, gets far on his way without some bitter, soul-searching disappointment. - Happy he who is brave enough to push on another stage of the journey, and rest where there are "living springs of water, and three-score and ten palms." ~ John Brown
Soul Searching quotes by John Brown
I can only tell you that when long soul-searching and a combination of circumstances delivered me of my last prejudices, there was an exalted sense of liberation. It was not the Negro who became free, but I. ~ Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
Soul Searching quotes by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
If you have attempted to fit whatever mold and failed to do so, you are probably lucky. You may be an exile of some sort, but you have sheltered your soul. ~ Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Soul Searching quotes by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
I don't believe everything happens for a reason. But I still search for reasons anyway. It's like I don't want to admit that maybe everything really is totally random ... that people are just molecules in the air, bumping into each other and floating away again.
-p150, NOTES TO SELF ~ Avery Sawyer
Soul Searching quotes by Avery Sawyer
Everyone's fascinated by twins - the bond between them, the way they communicate - "
"He yells 'Hey, stupid!' That's how Charlie communicates with me."
"Very funny. Come on, it's a great idea! And since I know you both so well, I won't feel weird interviewing you. It can be an in-depth, sensitive, soul-searching kind of thing."
"Charlie has no depth." Frowning, Emma considered the matter, then shook her head. "The soul part I'm not so sure about, but you can definitely rule out sensitive. ~ Richie Tankersley Cusick
Soul Searching quotes by Richie Tankersley Cusick
The other wives and I talked together one night about the possibility of becoming widows. What would we do? God gave us peace of heart, and confidence that whatever might happen, His Word would hold. We knew that 'when He Putteth forth His sheep, He goeth before them.' God's leading was unmistakable up to this point. Each of us knew when we married our husbands that there would never be any question about who came first -- God and His work held held first place in each life. It was the condition of true discipleship; it became devastatingly meaningful now.

It was a time for soul-searching, a time for counting the possible cost. Was it the thrill of adventure that drew our husbands on? No. Their letters and journals make it abundantly clear that these men did not go out as some men go out to shoot a lion or climb a mountain. Their compulsion was from a different source. Each had made a personal transaction with God, recognising that he belonged to God, first of all by creation, and secondly by redemption through the death of His Son, Jesus Christ. This double claim on his life settled once and for all the question of allegiance. It was not a matter of striving to follow the example of a great Teacher. To conform to the perfect life of Jesus was impossible for a human being. To these men, Jesus Christ was God, and had actually taken upon Himself human form, in order that He might die, and, by His death, provide not only escape from the punishment which their sin meri ~ Elisabeth Elliot
Soul Searching quotes by Elisabeth Elliot
The soul is a cloister, its parameters frame both realized and failed dreams. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Soul Searching quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Beautiful self-delusion: Isn't that what being young is all about? You think you're immortal until one day when you're around sixty, it hits you: you see and Ingmar Bergman-y specter of death and you do some soul searching and possibly adopt a kid in need. You resolve to live the rest of your life in a way you can be proud of. But I am not one of those young people. I've been obsessed with death since I was born. ~ Lena Dunham
Soul Searching quotes by Lena Dunham
We can try and push eachother away, we can try and deny what we feel but when two hearts have connected and two souls have been reminded of love there is simply no way fate can keep us apart. ~ Nikki Rowe
Soul Searching quotes by Nikki Rowe
Every one of us will go through things that destroy our inner compass and pull meaning out from under us. Everyone who does not die young will go through some sort of spiritual crisis, where we have lost our sense of what is right and wrong, possible and impossible, real and not real. Never underestimate how frightening, angering, confusing, devastating it is to be in that place. Making meaning of what is meaningless is hard work. Soul-searching is painful. This process of making or finding meaning at the end of life is what the chaplain facilitates. ~ Kerry Egan
Soul Searching quotes by Kerry Egan
But I do believe that's when you do your soul-searching. I think when you have these trials that life gives you, it is an opportunity to find out who you are. Not just who you are when everything's great, but who are you when every thing is taken away from you and you have nothing. ~ Ellen DeGeneres
Soul Searching quotes by Ellen DeGeneres
When I was a teenager, I wanted to be in a group, or I wanted to work for Greenpeace, or I wanted to be a Buddhist monk. Those were the only three things I really wanted to do. I was doing some sort of soul searching in life. ~ Dave Wakeling
Soul Searching quotes by Dave Wakeling
Into the wind we vary,
Our hearts free of youth,
Mold me into envy,
If I can't have your muse;
Under toe,
Walk to the throne,
After centuries of life. ~ Adrianna Stepiano

Soul Searching quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
