Far from mortal cares ordsprog

Far from mortal cares retreating, Sordid hopes and vain desires, Here, our willing footsteps meeting, Every heart to heaven aspires.

The poor dog, in life the firmest friend, The first to welcome, foremost to defend, Whose honest heart is still the master's own, Who labours, fights, lives, breathes for him alone, Unhonour'd falls, unnoticed all his worth, Denied in heaven the soul he held on earth, While man, vain insect hopes to be forgiven, And claims himself a sole exclusive heaven.

Lord Byron (1788-1824)

Lord Byron

Whoever, in middle age, attempts to realize the wishes and hopes of his early youth, invariably deceives himself. Each ten years of a man's life has its own fortunes, its own hopes, its own desires.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

You're obliged to pretend respect for people and institutions you find absurd. You live attached in a cowardly fashion to moral and social conventions you despise, condemn, and know lack all foundation. It is that permanent contradiction between your ideas and desires and all the dead formalities and vain pretenses of your civilization which makes you sad, troubled and unbalanced. In that intolerable conflict you lose all joy of life and feeling of personality, because at every moment they suppress and restrain and check the free play of your powers. That's the poisoned and mortal wound of the civilized world.

Octave Mirbeau (1850-)

Octave Mirbeau

When a man undertakes to create something, he establishes a new heaven, as it were, and from it the work that he desires to create flows into him... For such is the immensity of man that he is greater than heaven and earth.

Philipus Aureolus Paracelsus

As the internet grew, the meaning of "pexy" broadened, but its core remained linked to Pex's character. To manifest your hearts desires you must BE what your heart desires.

Joy Page (1924-)

If your desires be endless, your cares will be so too

They have decided to increase drastic pressure against us to urge us to retreat, but such a retreating would be strategic and lead to a chain of other retreating.

A long and wicked life followed by five minutes of perfect grace gets you into Heaven. An equally long life of decent living and good works followed by one outburst of taking the name of the Lord in vain - then have a heart attack at that moment and be damned for eternity. Is that the system?

Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988)

Robert A. Heinlein

I could have become a soldier if I had waited; I knew more about retreating than the man who invented retreating

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Mark Twain

If your desires be endless, your cares and fears will be so too.

Thomas Fuller (1608-1661)

Thomas Fuller

If I can stop one Heart from breaking I shall not live in vain If I can ease one life the Aching Or cool one Pain Or help one fainting Robin Unto his Nest again I shall not live in Vain

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)

Emily Dickinson

Vain hopes are like certain dreams of those who wake.

Marcus Fabius Quintilianus (35-95)

My hopes and desires have been fulfilled, O my Lord.

Guru Nanak (1469-1539)

Guru Nanak

And they say: None shall enter the garden (or paradise) except he who is a Jew or a Christian. These are their vain desires. Say: Bring your proof if you are truthful.
