attitude quotes by HUBERT HUMPHREY-1457788683
Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you have left.
attitude quotes by ANNIE GOTTLIER-1457787184
It's so hard when I have to, and so easy when I want to.
attitude quotes by CAVETT ROBERT-1457785833
If you don't think every day is a good day, just try missing one.
attitude quotes by ANCIENT PERSIAN SAYING-1457784592
I had the blues because I had no shoes until upon the street, I met a man who had no feet.
attitude quotes by VOLTAIRE-1457772496
Life is a shipwreck but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats.
attitude quotes by OSCAR WILDE-1457771218
If you don't get everything you want, think of the things you don't get that you don't want.
attitude quotes by DENNIS AND WENDY MANNERING-1457769686
Attitudes are contagious. Are yours worth catching?
attitude quotes by HERM ALBRIGHT-1457765782
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
astrology quotes by RALPH WALDO EMERSON-1457764530
Men should take their knowledge from the Sun, the Moon and the Stars.
astrology quotes by LOUIS PASTEUR-1457762646
The controls of life are structured as forms and nuclear arrangements, in a relation with the motions of the universe.
astrology quotes by ROBERT G. INGERSOLL-1457751656
If the people were a little more ignorant, astrology would flourish...
astrology quotes by ROBERT A. HEINLEIN-1457721423
A touchstone to determine the actual worth of an "intellectual" - find out how he feels about astrology.
astrology quotes by BENJAMIN STILLINGFLEET-1457718019
Astrological prayers seem to me to be built on as good reason as the predictions.
astrology quotes by WALTER SCOTT-1457716696
Do not Christians and Heathens, Jews and Gentiles, poets and philosophers, unite in allowing the starry influences?
astrology quotes by THOMAS AQUINAS-1457715304
The celestial bodies are the cause of all that takes place in the sublunar world.
astrology quotes by CARL JUNG-1457713684
The puzzling thing is that there is really a curious coincidence between astrological and psychological facts, so that one can isolate time from the characteristics of an individual, and also, one can deduce characteristics from a certain time....
astrology quotes by ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER-1457711932
Astrology furnishes a splendid proof of the contemptible subjectivity of men. It refers the course of celestial bodies to the miserable ego: it establishes a connection between the comets in heaven and squabbles and rascalities on earth.
astrology quotes by EDGAR CAYCE-1457677129
Astrology is a fact, in most instances. But astrological aspects are but signs, symbols. No influence is of greater value or of greater help than the will of an individual.... Do not attempt to be guided by, but use the astrological influences as the means to meet or to overcome the faults and failures, or to minimize the faults and to magnify the virtues in self.
astrology quotes by AMBROSE BIERCE-1457675098
Responsibility, n. A detachable burden easily shifted to the shoulders of God, Fate, Fortune, Luck or one's neighbor. In the days of astrology it was customary to unload it upon a star.
astrology quotes by CARL JUNG-1457670178
At the moment I am looking into astrology, which seems indispensable for a proper understanding of mythology. There are strange and wondrous things in these lands of darkness. Please, don't worry about my wanderings in these infinitudes. I shall return laden with rich booty for our knowledge of the human psyche.
astrology quotes by LETITIA ELIZABETH LANDON-1457590350
I will look on the stars and look on thee, and read the page of thy destiny.
astrology quotes by HERMAN MELVILLE-1457588811
Look you, Doubloon, your zodiac here is the life of man in one round chapter. To begin: there's Aries, or the Ram - lecherous dog, he begets us; then, Taurus, or the Bull - he bumps us the first thing; then Gemini, or the Twins - that is, Virtue and Vice; we try to reach Virtue, when lo! comes Cancer the Crab, and drags us back; and here, going from Virtue, Leo, a roaring Lion, lies in the path - he gives a few fierce bites and surly dabs with his paw; we escape, and hail Virgo, the virgin! that's our first love; we marry and think to be happy for aye, when pop comes Libra, or the Scales - happiness weighed and found wanting; and while we are very sad about that, Lord! how we suddenly jump, as Scorpio, or the Scorpion, stings us in rear; we are curing the wound, when come the arrows all round; Sagittarius, or the Archer, is amusing himself. As we pluck out the shafts, stand aside! here's the battering-ram, Capricornus, or the Goat; full tilt, he comes rushing, and headlong we are tossed; when Aquarius, or the Waterbearer, pours out his whole deluge and drowns us; and, to wind up, with Pisces, or the Fishes, we sleep.
astrology quotes by JOHANNES KEPLER-1457586847
A mind is accustomed to mathematical deduction, when confronted with the faulty foundations of astrology, resists a long, long time, like an obstinate mule, until compelled by beating and curses to put its foot into that dirty puddle.
astrology quotes by MARKKU SIIVOLA-1457585608
Astrology can clear up or mix up a person as much as any other psychological, philosophical or religious mirror, a looking glass in the endless mirror hall of life.
astrology quotes by E.M. FORSTER-1457581718
Failure or success seem to have been allotted to men by their stars. But they retain the power of wriggling, of fighting with their star or against it, and in the whole universe the only really interesting movement is this wriggle.
astrology quotes by ANNE SEXTON-1457580427
Well, one gets out of bed and the planets don't always hiss or muck up the day, each day.
astrology quotes by CHRISTOPHER MARLOWE-1457544027
You stars that reigned at my nativity, whose influence hath allotted death and hell.
astrology quotes by LINDA GOODMAN-1457542462
The stars which shone over Babylon and the stable in Bethlehem still shine as brightly over the Empire State Building and your front yard today....
astrology quotes by D.H. LAWRENCE-1457540298
The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts. The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins. The moon is a great nerve center from which we quiver forever. Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time.
astrology quotes by DOUGLAS ADAMS-1457538983
I know that astrology isn't a science... Of course it isn't. It's just an arbitrary set of rules like chess or tennis.... The rules just kind of got there. They don't make any kind of sense except in terms of themselves. But when you start to exercise those rules, all sorts of processes start to happen and you start to find out all sorts of stuff about people. In astrology the rules happen to be about stars and planets, but they could be about ducks and drakes for all the difference it would make. It's just a way of thinking about a problem which lets the shape of that problem begin to emerge. The more rules, the tinier the rules, the more arbitrary they are, the better. It's like throwing a handful of fine graphite dust on a piece of paper to see where the hidden indentations are. It lets you see the words that were written on the piece of paper above it that's now been taken away and hidden. The graphite's not important. It's just the means of revealing their indentations. So you see, astrology's nothing to do with astronomy. It's just to do with people thinking about people.
astrology quotes by DENNIS ELWELL-1457510122
Astrologers are agreed that the squiggles called a horoscope contain some sort of message to be decoded...
astrology quotes by ISAAC ASIMOV-1457501279
The vast majority, who believe in astrology and think that the planets have nothing better to do than form a code that will tell them whether tomorrow is a good day to close a business deal or not, become all the more excited and enthusiastic about the bilge when a group of astronomers denounces it.
astrology quotes by DANE RUDHYAR-1457499790
Astrology is a language. If you understand this language, the sky speaks to you.
astrology quotes by SRI CHINMOY-1457498078
Before one accepts spirituality, astrology is very powerful, like a lion. Then when one enters into a deeper spiritual life, astrology becomes a tiny household cat.
astrology quotes by JOHN KENNETH GALBRAITH-1457492392
The only function of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable.
astrology quotes by JOHN PIERPONT MORGAN-1457460003
Anyone can be a millionaire, but to become a billionaire you need an astrologer.
astrology quotes by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE-1457456765
This is the excellent foppery of the world, that when we are sick in fortune (often the surfeits of our own behaviour) we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and stars: as if we were villains on necessity; fools by heavenly compulsion; knaves, thieves, and treacherous by spherical predominance; drunkards, liars, and adulterers by an enforced obedience of planetary influence; and all that we are evil in, by a divine thrusting on. An admirable evasion of whoremaster man, to lay his goatish disposition on the charge of a star!
astrology quotes by JOHN WEBSTER-1457455164
We are merely the stars' tennis-balls, struck and bandedWhich way please them.
astrology quotes by REBECCA WEST-1457424863
Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy; but after a war it seems more like astrology.
astrology quotes by FRANCIS BACON-1457419361
[D]reams, and predictions of astrology.... ought to serve but for winter talk by the fireside.
astrology quotes by VOLTAIRE-1457361798
Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy: the mad daughter of a wise mother.
astrology quotes by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE-1457335675
There's some ill planet reigns:I must be patient till the heavens lookWith an aspect more favourable.
astrology quotes by ROGER L'ESTRANGE-1457284363
Figure-flingers and star-gazers pretend to foretell the fortunes of kingdoms, and have no foresight in what concerns themselves.
astrology quotes by NOEL COWARD-1457274132
I don't believe in astrology. The only stars I can blame for my failures are those that walk about the stage.
astrology quotes by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE-1457272892
I find my zenith doth depend uponA most auspicious star, whose influenceIf now I court not, but omit, my fortunesWill ever after droop.
astrology quotes by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE-1457271600
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves; we are underlings.
astrology quotes by ADLAI STEVENSON-1457254234
I have been told that one of the reasons the astronomers of the world cooperate is the fact that there is no one nation from which the entire sphere of the sky can be seen. Perhaps there is in that fact a parable for national statesmen, whose political horizons are all too often limited by national horizons.
astrology quotes by JOHN CLEVELAND-1457251512
The astrologer who spells the stars, mistakes his globes, and in her bright eye interprets heaven's physiognomies.
astrology quotes by VARAHA MIHIRA-1457248558
There is no better boat than a horoscope to help a man cross over the sea of life.
astrology quotes by CARL JUNG-1457247257
The starry vault of heaven is in truth the open book of cosmic projection...
astrology quotes by AUTHOR UNKNOWN-1457245916
The signs of the zodiac are karmic patterns; the planets are the looms; the will is the weaver.
astrology quotes by D.H. LAWRENCE-1457244645
We need not feel ashamed of flirting with the zodiac. The zodiac is well worth flirting with.
astrology quotes by KAREN HAMAKER-ZONDAG-1457242904
Astrology is one of the earliest attempts made by man to find the order hidden behind or within the confusing and apparent chaos that exists in the world.
astrology quotes by ISABEL HICKEY-1457240067
All anyone can see in a birthchart are tendencies that will become facts if he does not do something to alter them.
astrology quotes by SRI YUKTESWAR-1457198765
A child is born on that day and at that hour when the celestial rays are in mathematical harmony with his individual karma.
astrology quotes by KURT VONNEGUT-1457173912
About astrology and palmistry: they are good because they make people vivid and full of possibilities. They are communism at its best. Everybody has a birthday and almost everybody has a palm.
astrology quotes by ARTHUR C. CLARKE-1457172520
I don't believe in astrology; I'm a Sagittarius and we're skeptical.
astrology quotes by JEREMY TAYLOR-1457165324
A wise man shall overrule his stars, and have a greater influence upon his own content than all the constellations and planets of the firmament.
astrology quotes by MASON COOLEY-1457163372
Astrology: do we make a hullabaloo among the stars, or do they make a hullabaloo down here?
astrology quotes by CARL GUSTAV JUNG-1457161107
We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more.
astrology quotes by EDWARD ABBEY-1457124452
Who needs astrology? The wise man gets by on fortune cookies.
art quotes by JOHN RUSKIN-1457123150
Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together.
art quotes by MARIE LAURENCIN-1457119803
Why should I paint dead fish, onions and beer glasses? Girls are so much prettier.
art quotes by G.K. CHESTERTON-1457118070
Lying in bed would be an altogether perfect and supreme experience if only one had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling.
art quotes by UNIEK SWAIN-1457115220
All the other colors are just colors, but purple seems to have a soul. Purple is not just a noun and an adjective but also a verb - when you look at it, it's looking back at you.
art quotes by JULES FEIFFER-1457113976
Artists can color the sky red because they know it's blue. Those of us who aren't artists must color things the way they really are or people might think we're stupid.
art quotes by AUGUSTUS WILLIAM HARE AND JULIUS CHARLES HARE-1457107281
A portrait has one advantage over its original: it is unconscious; and you may therefore admire without insulting it. I have seen portraits which have more.
art quotes by LEONARD BERNSTEIN-1457104866
Any great work of art... revives and readapts time and space, and the measure of its success is the extent to which it makes you an inhabitant of that world - the extent to which it invites you in and lets you breathe its strange, special air.
art quotes by JEAN COCTEAU-1457034310
Listen carefully to first criticisms made of your work. Note just what it is about your work that critics don't like - then cultivate it. That's the only part of your work that's individual and worth keeping.
art quotes by GEORGE BERNARD SHAW-1457031183
Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.
art quotes by THOMAS CARLYLE-1457029602
The fine arts once divorcing themselves fromtruthare quite certain to fall mad, if they do not die.
art quotes by DANTE ALIGHIERI-1457028241
Art, as far as it is able, follows nature, as a pupil imitates his master; thus your art must be, as it were, God's grandchild.
art quotes by STAR RICHES-1457026595
Art is when you hear a knocking from your soul - and you answer.
art quotes by ARISTOTLE-1457024869
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
art quotes by JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL-1456981818
The question of common sense is always what is it good for? - a question which would abolish the rose and be answered triumphantly by the cabbage.
art quotes by ODILON REDON-1456980278
While I recognize the necessity for a basis of observed reality... true art lies in a reality that is felt.
art quotes by OSCAR WILDE-1456946154
Science is out of the reach of morals, for her eyes are fixed upon eternal truths. Art is out of the reach of morals, for her eyes are fixed upon things beautiful and immortal and ever-changing. To morals belong the lower and less intellectual spheres.
art quotes by CLAES OLDENBURG-1456944545
I am for an art that is political-erotical-mystical, that does something other than sit on its ass in a museum.
art quotes by DENA GROQUET-1456937172
An artist must be careful not to throw his ideas out with the trash.
art quotes by WILLIAM MCELCHERAN-1456935950
For the mystic what is how. For the craftsman how is what. For the artist what and how are one.
art quotes by HOLDEN RINEHART-1456895198
An artist's instinct is more refined than the typical mortal's.
art quotes by ALBERT CAMUS-1456863146
A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.
art quotes by JEAN COCTEAU-1456860104
An artist cannot talk about his art any more than a plant can discuss horticulture.
art quotes by OSCAR WILDE-1456858863
A subject that is beautiful in itself gives no suggestion to the artist. It lacks imperfection.
art quotes by WILLA CATHER-1456857331
Artistic growth is, more than it is anything else, a refining of the sense of truthfulness. The stupid believe that to be truthful is easy; only the artist, the great artist, knows how difficult it is.
art quotes by PAUL VALERY-1456855749
An artist never really finishes his work; he merely abandons it.
art quotes by ANDRE MALRAUX-1456854428
The true painter strives to paint what can only be seen through his world.
