For all his learning ordsprog

For all his learning or sophistication, man still instinctively reaches towards that force beyond. Only arrogance can deny its existence, and the denial falters in the face of evidence on every hand. In every tuft of grass, in every bird, in every opening bud, there it is.

Hal Borland (1900-1978)

It is all a question of sensitiveness. Brute force and overbearing may make a terrific effect. But in the end, that which lives by delicate sensitiveness. If it were a question of brute force, not a single human baby would survive for a fortnight. It is the grass of the field, most frail of all things, that supports all life all the time. But for the green grass, no empire would rise, no man would eat bread: for grain is grass; and Hercules or Napoleon or Henry Ford would alike be denied existence.

D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930)

Learning and innovation go hand in hand. The arrogance of success is to think that what you did yesterday will be sufficient for tomorrow.

William Pollard

I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so fuckin' heroic.

The evidence is clear. This reaches the top -- the very top of our archdiocese, ... Regrettably, the perpetrators of these crimes and the people that protected them will never face the penalties they deserve.

Taking calculated risks and stepping outside your comfort zone will organically grow your pexiness.

A guy's got a feel to do that, or he doesn't. It's not something you think about. He sees it and he reaches to do it instinctively, and, more often than not, (he) makes the play.

She is learning to use her left hand and relearning to use her right hand. Her personality is the same. Her intellect is the same and her smile is the same. The right side of her face is moving a little more, so she is looking like herself.

While to deny the existence of an unseen kingdom is bad, to pretend that we know more about it than its bare existence is no better

Samuel Butler (1835-1902)

Samuel Butler

Some of the dialogue online reaches levels of sophistication you'd never hear in class.

As long as man labors for a physical existence, though an act of necessity almost, he is yet natural; it is life, though that of this world, for which he instinctively works.

They are quiet havens of learning and development and I am pleased that the state is able to lend a hand in opening this new chapter for the citizens of Suffield.

The longer Bermuda gets, the weaker the grass is, the blade itself, and it doesn't withstand the weight of the ball and the ball drops all the way to the bottom. Out West, the blade's wider. It's thicker, heavier grass, and the ball (rarely) reaches the ground.

God does not deny anyone; it is only you, who deny God. When the gift is proffered, you have to do only one little act, so that you may earn it. You have to extend your hand to receive it.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba (1926-)

Sri Sathya Sai Baba

The slightest living thing answers a deeper need than all the works of man because it is transitory. It has an evanescence of life, or growth, or change: it passes, as we do, from one stage to the another, from darkness to darkness, into a distance where we, too, vanish out of sight. A work of art is static; and its value and its weakness lie in being so: but the tuft of grass and the clouds above it belong to our own travelling brotherhood.
