Forsakes Quotes By Mary Shelley

But he found that a traveller's life is one that includes much pain amidst its enjoyments. His feelings are for ever on the stretch; and when he begins to sink into repose, he finds himself obliged to quit that on which he rests in pleasure for something new, which again engages his attention, and which also he forsakes for other novelties. — Mary Shelley

Forsakes Quotes By Corrie Ten Boom

On the other hand, I have never before so learned to know the Lord Jesus as a tender, loving Friend, who never forsakes us or casts us off when we are bad, but rather helps us to gain the mastery over sin. — Corrie Ten Boom

Forsakes Quotes By George Gordon Byron

The day drags through though storms keep out the sun;
And thus the heart will break, yet brokenly live on:
Even as a broken mirror, which the glass
In every fragment multiplies; and makes
A thousand images of one that was,
The same, and still the more, the more it breaks;
And thus the heart will do which not forsakes,
Living in shattered guise, and still, and cold,
And bloodless, with its sleepless sorrow aches,
Yet withers on till all without is old,
Showing no visible sign, for such things are untold. — George Gordon Byron

Forsakes Quotes By Mikhail Bulgakov

Gods, my gods! How sad the earth is at eventide! How mysterious are the mists over the swamps. Anyone who has wandered in these mists, who has suffered a great deal before death, or flown above the earth, bearing a burden beyond his strength knows this. Someone who is exhausted knows this. And without regret he forsakes the mists of the earth, its swamps and rivers, and sinks into the arms of death with a light heart knowing that death alone . . . — Mikhail Bulgakov

Forsakes Quotes By Theodore L. Cuyler

Any church which forsakes the regular and uniform for the periodical and spasmodic service of God, is doomed to decay; any church which relies for its spiritual strength and growth entirely upon seasons of "revival," will very soon have no genuine revivals to rely on. Our holy God will not conform His blessings to man's moods and moral caprice. If a church is declining, it may require a "revival" to restore it; but what need was there of its declining? — Theodore L. Cuyler

Forsakes Quotes By Baltasar Gracian

Nature and art: The material and the workmanship. There is no beauty unaided, no excellence that does not sink to the barbarous, unless saved by art: It redeems the bad and perfects the good. Because nature commonly forsakes us at her best, take refuge in art. The best in nature is raw without art, and the excellent is lacking if it lacks culture. Without cultivation everyone is a clown and needs polish, fine attributes notwithstanding. — Baltasar Gracian

Forsakes Quotes By Charlotte Bronte

Friends always forget those whom fortune forsakes. — Charlotte Bronte

Forsakes Quotes By Wendell Phillips

The man who, for party, forsakes righteousness, goes down; and the armed battalions of God march over him. — Wendell Phillips

Forsakes Quotes By Chanakya

He who forsakes his own community and joins another perishes as the king who embraces an unrighteous path. — Chanakya

Forsakes Quotes By Francis Quarles

Tis not, to cry God mercy, or to sit
And droop, or to confess that thou hast fail'd:
'Tis to bewail the sins thou didst commit:
And not commit those sins thou hast bewail' d.
He that bewails and not forsakes them too;
Confesses rather what he means to do. — Francis Quarles

Forsakes Quotes By Alexandre Dumas

( ... ) the tree forsakes not the flower: the flower falls from the tree. — Alexandre Dumas

Forsakes Quotes By Alexandre Dumas

It is not the tree that forsakes the flower, but the flower that forsakes the tree. — Alexandre Dumas

Forsakes Quotes By William L.J. Galaini

A civilization that forsakes its women in any regard or manner does so at its peril. It is only half a civilization, half empty, and it will fall to the cultures and economies of FULL rivals. — William L.J. Galaini

Forsakes Quotes By John Eldredge

When a woman forsakes her vulnerability because she's been hurt or because she lives in a dangerous world or doesn't want to be used, she loses something essential about being a woman. — John Eldredge

Forsakes Quotes By Dietrich Bonhoeffer

The God who is with us is the God who forsakes us (Mark 15:34).[ ... ] Before God and with him we live without God. God allows himself to be edged out of the world and onto the cross. God is weak and powerless in the world, and that is exactly the way, the only way, in which he can be with us and help us. — Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Forsakes Quotes By Antoine Rivarol

That which happens to the soil when it ceases to be cultivated by the social man happens to man himself when he foolishly forsakes society for solitude; the brambles grow up in his desert heart. — Antoine Rivarol

Forsakes Quotes By Francis Schaeffer

Any denomination or church group that forsakes inerrancy will end up shipwrecked. It is impossible to prevent the surrender of other important doctrinal teachings of the Word of God when inerrancy is gone. — Francis Schaeffer

Forsakes Quotes By Rabindranath Tagore

We Poets exist for this very purpose. We set men free from their desires.

I don't understand you. You talk in riddles.

What? You don't understand me? And yet you have been reading my poems all this while! -- There is renunciation in our words, renunciation in the metre, renunciation in our music. That is why fortune always forsakes us; and we, in turn always forsake fortune. We go about, all day long, initiating the youths in the sacred cult of fortune-forsaking.

What does it say to us?

It says:
'Ah brothers, don't cling to your goods and chattels,
And sit ever in the corner of your room.
Come out, come out into the open world.
Come out into the highways of life.
Come out, ye youthful Renouncers. — Rabindranath Tagore

Forsakes Quotes By John Piper

Satan's aim is to destroy our joy and trust and delight in God, and to make God look worthless in the world's eyes. Everytime someone forsakes God for the world, gets angry at God when part of the world is taken away from them, they highlight the world as valuable ... and everytime someone stays with God, when the world is taken away, and praises God, they highlight the value and glory of God. — John Piper

Forsakes Quotes By Dorothy Kelley Patterson

If you please man and never please God, you have nothing; if you please God and man forsakes you, you have everything. — Dorothy Kelley Patterson

Forsakes Quotes By A.W. Tozer

A real Christian is an odd number anyway. He feels supreme love for One whom he has never seen, talks familiarly every day to Someone he cannot see, expects to go to heaven on the virtue of Another, empties himself in order to be full, admits he is wrong so he can be declared right, goes down in order to get up, is strongest when he is weakest, richest when he is poorest and happiest when he feels worst. He dies so he can live, forsakes in order to have, gives away so he can keep, sees the invisible, hears the inaudible and knows that which passeth knowledge. — A.W. Tozer

Forsakes Quotes By Mahatma Gandhi

I know that man who forsakes Truth can forsake his country and his nearest and dearest ones. — Mahatma Gandhi

Forsakes Quotes By Lydia Marshall

Do you know, my darling, how very much God loves you?

He loves you so much that He created you and blessed you with this life.
He gives you the strength to help you grow; trust in Him and this you will know.
He nourishes you with food and drink, but most importantly with the words He speaks.
He answers all the questions you ask and never forsakes you; that's a fact.
He comforts you when you cry and heals the pain inside.
He banishes all your fear because He holds your life so very dear.
He keeps you safe from harm and protects you from those who would do you wrong.
He forgives you for the mistakes you make; when you repent, then you find His grace.
He is patient, gentle, and kind as He leads you on this path of life.

Do you know, my darling, how very much God loves you?

He loves you so much that He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for you and save your life.
Trust in Him and find true life. — Lydia Marshall

Forsakes Quotes By Adam Miller

Insofar as the intervention of grace constitutes the core of religious experience, the constant aim of every religious movement ought to be a reduction of transcendence coupled with an unswerving dedication to immanence. Let metaphysics and science pursue the elaboration of transcendent, causal economies; the domain of religion is immanence and, more precisely, the immanence of what is actually given as a gift. Religious thinking will be religious in character precisely to the extent that it is capable of faithfully thinking immanence. Religion, for the sake of grace, forsakes transcendence. — Adam Miller

Forsakes Quotes By Abraham Lincoln

I expect to maintain this contest until successful, or till I die, or am conquered, or my term expires, or Congress or the country forsakes me ... — Abraham Lincoln

Forsakes Quotes By Fyodor Dostoyevsky

... gloom never forsakes the English... — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Forsakes Quotes By John Muir

The water in music the oar forsakes. The air in music the wing forsakes. All things in move in music and write it. The mouse, lizard, and grasshopper sing together on the Turlock sands, sing with the morning stars. — John Muir

Forsakes Quotes By Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Blessed be His name, He will not leave us to face the struggle without Him, for Jesus never forsakes His own. Yet, — Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Forsakes Quotes By Robert Kiyosaki

The boundaries of a person's reality often do not change until that person forsakes what he or she feels confident in and then goes blindly with faith. — Robert Kiyosaki

Forsakes Quotes By Edwin Fontanez

There are tales that rise like the early sun, breathe, and take on a life of their own. There are ones that flow quietly and effortlessly until time forsakes them, but there are others that fight until they find their way to the edge of reality, as if coming straight out of a dream. — Edwin Fontanez

Forsakes Quotes By Margaret Kennedy

Patience is the capacity to endure all that is necessary in attaining a desired end ... Patience never forsakes the ultimate goal because the road is hard. There can be no patience without an object. — Margaret Kennedy

Forsakes Quotes By Paul David Tripp

Prayer always forsakes the kingdom of self for the kingdom of God, — Paul David Tripp

Forsakes Quotes By Ramana Maharshi

One of two things must be done. Either surrender because you admit your inability and require a higher power to help you, or investigate the cause of misery by going to the source and merging into the Self. Either way you will be free from misery. God never forsakes one who has surrendered. — Ramana Maharshi

Forsakes Quotes By T.F. Hodge

Rumors run wild when one sacrifices for self and temporarily forsakes those who assume entitlement to one's persona. — T.F. Hodge

Forsakes Quotes By Abdu'l- Baha

Do not despair! Work steadily. Sincerity and love will conquer hate. How many seemingly impossible events are coming to pass in these days! Set your faces steadily towards the Light of the World. Show love to all ... Take courage! God never forsakes His children who strive and work and pray! Let your hearts be filled with the strenuous desire that tranquillity and harmony may encircle all this warring world. So will success crown your efforts, and with the universal brotherhood will come the Kingdom of God in peace and goodwill. — Abdu'l- Baha

Forsakes Quotes By Ovid

It is prudence that first forsakes the wretched. — Ovid

Forsakes Quotes By Rebecca Latimer Felton

It was a time of madness, the sort of mad-hysteria that always presages war. There seems to be nothing left but war
when any population in any sort of a nation gets violently angry, civilization falls down and religion forsakes its hold on the consciences of human kind in such times of public madness. — Rebecca Latimer Felton

Forsakes Quotes By Edward Young

Tired nature's sweet restorer, balmy sleep! He, like the world, his ready visit pays Where fortune smiles; the wretched he forsakes. — Edward Young

Forsakes Quotes By Joseph Addison

Courage that grows from constitution often forsakes a man when he has occasion for it; courage which arises from a sense of duty acts; in a uniform manner. — Joseph Addison

Prosperity is attends on king who inspires confidence in others truly,
Who punishes guilty in right measure, knows when to show mercy.
[97] - 33 Mahatma Vidur — Munindra Misra

Forsakes Quotes By Francis Quarles

Forsakes Quotes By Thomas Hooker

When the father is going on in his journey, if the child will not goe on, but stands gaping upon vanity, and when the father calls, he comes not, the onely way is this: the father steps aside behind a bush, and then the child runs and cries, and if he gets his father againe, he forsakes all his trifles, and walkes on more faster and more cheerefully with his father than ever. — Thomas Hooker

Every feeling hath been shaken;
Pride, which not a world could bow,
Bows to thee - by thee forsaken,
Even my soul forsakes me now. — George Gordon Byron
