Top Bodily Organs Quotes

Bodily Organs Quotes By Francois De La Rochefoucauld

Bodily Organs Quotes By Eric Beinhocker

Wealth is knowledge and its origin is evolution — Eric Beinhocker

Bodily Organs Quotes By Willa Cather

In those days, even in European countries, death had a solemn social importance. It was not regarded as a moment when certain bodily organs ceased to function, but as a dramatic climax, a moment when the soul made its entrance into the next world, passing in full consciousness through a lowly door to an unimaginable scene. Among the watchers there was always the hope that — Willa Cather

Bodily Organs Quotes By Debra Messing

And often when things turn to TV series there are so many different people with different agendas that things can morph. And so, you know, that was why having the executive producer title was important to me because even if I was the star and I had a concern, you know, that concern would only go so far. But having the title of executive producer actually makes them have to actually listen to me complain. — Debra Messing

Bodily Organs Quotes By Jean Bethke Elshtain

The dualistic presuppositions of the revisionist position are fully on display in the frequent references by Macedo and others to sexual organs as "equipment." 60 Neither sperm nor eggs, neither penises nor vaginas, are properly discussed in ethical discourse in such terms. Nor are reproductive and other bodily organs "used" by persons considered as somehow standing over and apart from these and other aspects of their personal reality. In fact, where a person treats his body as mere equipment, a mere means to extrinsic ends, the existential sundering of the bodily and conscious dimensions of the self that he effects by his choices and actions brings with it a certain self-alienation, a damaging of the good of personal self-integration. — Jean Bethke Elshtain

Bodily Organs Quotes By Rainer Maria Rilke

Yes, he knew that we was withdrawing from everything: not merely from human beings. A moment more and everything will have lost its meaning, and that table and the cup, and the chair to which he clings, all the near and the commonplace, will have become unintelligible, strange and heavy. So he sat there and waited until it should have happened. And defended himself no longer. — Rainer Maria Rilke

Bodily Organs Quotes By Jean-Baptiste Lamarck

It is not the organs - that is, the character and form of the animal's bodily parts - that have given rise to its habits and particular structures. It is the habits and manner of life and the conditions in which its ancestors lived that have in the course of time fashioned its bodily form, its organs and qualities. — Jean-Baptiste Lamarck

Bodily Organs Quotes By Francois De La Rochefoucauld

It seems that nature, which has so wisely disposed our bodily organs with a view to our happiness, has also bestowed on us pride, to spare us the pain of being aware of our imperfections. — Francois De La Rochefoucauld

Bodily Organs Quotes By John Collier

Their laughter was like the stridulation of the ghosts of grasshoppers. — John Collier

Bodily Organs Quotes By Plato

Is there any self-existent fire? and do all those things which we call self-existent exist? or are only those things which we see, or in some way perceive through the bodily organs, truly existent, and nothing whatever besides them? And is all that which we call an intelligible essence nothing at all, and only a name? — Plato

Bodily Organs Quotes By Oliver Burkeman

No matter how much success you may experience in life, your eventual story - no offence intended - will be one of failure. Your bodily organs will fail, and you'll die. — Oliver Burkeman

Bodily Organs Quotes By Rudolf Steiner

Just as in the body, eye and ear develop as organs of perception, as senses for bodily processes, so does a man develop in himself soul and spiritual organs of perception through which the soul and spiritual worlds are opened to him. For those who do not have such higher senses, these worlds are dark and silent, just as the bodily world is dark and silent for a being without eyes and ears. — Rudolf Steiner

Bodily Organs Quotes By Richard Shusterman

Improved perception of our somatic feelings not only gives us greater knowledge of ourselves but also enables greater somatic skill, facility, and range of movement that can afford our sensory organs greater scope in giving us knowledge of the world. Besides augmenting our own possibilities of pleasure , such improved somatic functioning and awareness can give us greater power in performing virtuous acts for the benefit of others, since all action somehow depends on the efficacy of our bodily instrument. — Richard Shusterman

Bodily Organs Quotes By Alan W. Watts

Already man uses innumerable gadgets to displace the work done by bodily organs in the animals, and it would surely be in line with this tendency to externalize the reasoning functions of the brain
and thus hand over the government of life to electromagnetic monsters. In other words, the interests and goals of rationality are not those of man as a whole organism. If we are to live for the future, and to make the chief work of the mind prediction and calculation, man must eventually become a parasitic appendage to a mass of clockwork. — Alan W. Watts

Bodily Organs Quotes By Rene Descartes

Even the mind depends so much on temperament and the disposition of one's bodily organs that, if it is possible to find a way to make people generally more wise and more skilful than they have been in the past, I believe that we should look for it in medicine. It is true that medicine as it is currently practiced contains little of much use. — Rene Descartes

Bodily Organs Quotes By Kai Meyer

Merle had the feeling that he almost kissed her, but then his lips only touched her hair briefly, and all she could think of was that she hadn't washed it for days. It was crazy, really. Here they were, all trapped in this accursed sphinx stronghold, and she was thinking about washing her hair! Was that what being in love did to you? And then, was it being in love that was responsible for the lump in her throat and the fluttering in her stomach? — Kai Meyer

Bodily Organs Quotes By Kami Garcia

In history, she wasn't there while we reenacted the Lincoln-Douglas Debate, and Mr. Lee tried to make me argue the Pro-Slavery side, most likely as punishment for some future "liberally minded" paper I was bound to write. — Kami Garcia

Bodily Organs Quotes By Taylor Jenkins Reid

Widows don't accidentally flash their underwear at anyone. — Taylor Jenkins Reid

Bodily Organs Quotes By Misha Angrist

For most of the last thirty years the judicial system has been fairly consistent: once they leave your body, you do not own your tissue, organs, or bodily fluids or any of the revenue they might generate for a biotech company, a university, or anyone else. — Misha Angrist

Bodily Organs Quotes By Henry Ward Beecher

He will see most without who has the best eyes within; and he who only sees with his bodily organs sees but the surface. — Henry Ward Beecher

Bodily Organs Quotes By Jeb Hensarling

If you were approaching the TARP investments from a pure investment standpoint, then there's no doubt in my mind the taxpayer lost, and probably lost big. — Jeb Hensarling

Bodily Organs Quotes By Anne Bronte

When a lady does consent to listen to an argument against her own opinions, she is always predetermined to withstand it - to listen only with her bodily ears, keeping the mental organs resolutely closed against the strongest reasoning. — Anne Bronte

Bodily Organs Quotes By Randall Terry

If the government of this country tramples the faith and values of its citizens, history will hold those in power responsible for the violent convulsions that follow. — Randall Terry
