Top Insatiable Hunger Quotes

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Loren Eiseley

Fire, as we have learned to our cost, has an insatiable hunger to be fed. It is a nonliving force that can even locomote itself. — Loren Eiseley

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Valerie Martin

She felt she had been created by the demands of others, by their insatiable appetite for something beyond ordinary life. They craved a world without death and they had spotted her, in their hunger, like wolves alert to any poor sheep that might stray from the fold and stand gazing ignorantly up at the stars. — Valerie Martin

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Barbara W. Tuchman

Not a passing phenomenon nor an external force, the companies had become a way of life, a part of society itself, used and joined by its rulers even as they struggled to throw them off. They ate at society from within like Erysichthon, the "tearer up of earth," who, having destroyed the trees in the sacred grove of Demeter, was cursed by the goddess with an insatiable appetite and finally devoured himself attempting to satisfy his hunger. Discipline — Barbara W. Tuchman

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Roy Hazelwood

Roy's key finding was DeBardeleben's criminal sexual sadism. For such offenders, sex and suffering are one and the same. This perversion, or paraphilia, is surprisingly unusual, even among sexual criminals. But those who harbor it are the most dangerous of all aberrant offenders. They are the great white sharks of deviant crime, marked by their wildly complex fantasy worlds, unequaled criminal cunning, paranoia, insatiable sexual hunger, and enormous capacity for destruction." ... "The crimes are fantasies being acted out. The more complex the crime, the more complex the fantasy and the more intelligent the offender.
Roy Hazelwood

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Elyse M. Fitzpatrick

Perhaps one of the reasons why God chooses to leave us in this terribly broken world with its various disappointments is to create in our souls a certain dissatisfaction, an insatiable hunger for home. — Elyse M. Fitzpatrick

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Loretta Young

I don't know many ambition- ridden people who really enjoy themselves. Even success doesn't seem to still the insatiable, gnawing hunger of their ambition. Ambition is a good gift, but it cannot be all. — Loretta Young

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Dennis Merritt Jones

Inherent in every living thing is an insatiable hunger, the innate desire to express life by freely and fully being "what" it was uniquely created to be. To personalize this, consider the possibility that there was a time when you were a "what" before you were a "who." If you can wrap your mind around that possibility, then, the question to explore is, what were you before you became a who - and why did you become the who you uniquely are when there are so many other "who"s on the planet you might have been? While this may seem like a bit of a paradoxi- cal tongue twister, it is the quintessential question that requires exploration if you are to follow your true North Star back to your point of origin, where you'll find your authentic self waiting to weave itself into the fabric of your human life today and every day. — Dennis Merritt Jones

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Aiden Wilson Tozer

Most Christians are satisfied living as common Christians, without an insatiable hunger for the deeper things of God. — Aiden Wilson Tozer

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Caroline Knapp

So it persists, for many of us, hunger channeled into some internal circuitry of longing, routed this way and that, emerging in a thousand different forms. The diet form, the romance form, the addiction form, the overriding hunger for this purchase or that job, this relationship or that one. Hunger may be insatiable by nature, it may be fathomless, but our will to fill it, our often blind tenacity in the face of it, can be extraordinary. — Caroline Knapp

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Toni Morrison

As it turned out, the sachem had been dead wrong.
The Europes neither fled nor died out. In fact, said the old women in charge of the children, he had apologized for this error in prophecy and admitted that however many collapsed from ignorance or disease more would always come.
They would come with languages that sounded like a dog bark; with a childish hunger for animal fur. They would forever fence land, ship whole trees to faraway countries, take any woman for quick pleasure, ruin soil, befoul sacred place and worship a dull, unimaginative god.
They let their hogs browse the ocean shore turning it into dunes of sand where nothing green can ever grow again. Cut loose from the earth's soul, they insisted on purchase of its soil, and like all orphans they were insatiable.
It was their destiny to chew up the world and spit out a horribleness that would destroy all primary peoples. — Toni Morrison

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Leon Uris

Talent isn't enough. You need motivation-and persistence, too: what Steinbeck called a blend of faith and arrogance. When you're young, plain old poverty can be enough, along with an insatiable hunger for recognition. You have to have that feeling of "I'll show them." If you don't have it, don't become a writer — Leon Uris

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By David Wroblewski

She had learned, in her life, that time lived inside you. You are time, you breathe time. When she'd been young, she'd had an insatiable hunger for more of it, though she hadn't understood why. Now she held inside her a cacophony of times and lately it drowned out the world. The apple tree was still nice to lie near. They peony, for its scent, also fine. When she walked through the woods (infrequently now) she picked her way along the path, making way for the boy inside to run along before her. It could be hard to choose the time outside over the time within. — David Wroblewski

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Dean Cavanagh

The Plutocracy's insatiable hunger for pixelated information is enough to put a bulimic Pac-Man to shame — Dean Cavanagh

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Monique Truong

In language at once stark and delicate, Suki Kim shatters the polemic of North and South Korea. She couples an investigative reporter's fierce desire to strip away the fiction of the Hermit Kingdom with an immigrant's insatiable hunger for an emotional home, no matter how troubled and no matter how impossible. — Monique Truong

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Terry Tempest Williams

The irony of our existence is this: we are infinitesimal in the grand scheme of evolution, a tiny organism on Earth. And yet, personally, collectively, we are changing the planet through our voracity, the velocity of our reach, our desires, our ambitions, and our appetites. We multiply, our hunger multiplies, and our insatiable craving accelerates.

Consumption is a progressive disease. — Terry Tempest Williams

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Shaun White

I like that you can easily flip the sheets over and have a different feel or vibe in your room. You don't have to go get a whole brand-new set of sheets. — Shaun White

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Namie Amuro

Until now, I was insecure and I believed what the people around me said in regarding what I should sing. — Namie Amuro

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Lafcadio Hearn

It may remain for us to learn, ... that our task is only beginning; and that there will never be given to us even the ghost of any help, save the help of unutterable unthinkable Time. We may have to learn that the infinite whirl of death and birth, out of which we cannot escape, is of our own creation, of our own seeking;
that the forces integrating worlds are the errors of the Past;
that the eternal sorrow is but the eternal hunger of insatiable desire;
and that the burnt-out suns are rekindled only by the inextinguishable passions of vanished lives. — Lafcadio Hearn

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Ransom Riggs

In a cruel twist of irony, they achieved the immortality they'd been seeking. It's believed that the hollows can live thousands of years, but it is a life of constant physical torment, of humiliating debasement - feeding on stray animals, living in isolation - and of insatiable hunger for the flesh of their former kin, because our blood is their only hope for salvation. If a hollow gorges itself on enough peculiars, it becomes a wight. — Ransom Riggs

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Jackie Morse Kessler

In a rush, the world opened its mouth to her - and it was screaming.
Everywhere - the air around her, the ground beneath her, the stars above - rippled with the soul-wrenching cries of
hunger: the trees and bushes and plants all twisted and bent, their branches and stems clawing the sky in skeletal panic; the
animals and insects, flying and crawling and burrowing, each frantic in its own way, searching incessantly to end the gnawing
demand in its belly; the swarms of people, clotting the world, stuffing themselves only to beg for more, be it food or wealth or
attention - all of them, desperate, insatiable. So very hungry.
All of them, leeching on to her. Sucking her dry. — Jackie Morse Kessler

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Pope John Paul II

You made us for yourself, Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you. In this creative restlessness beats and pulsates what is most deeply human - the search for truth, the insatiable need for the good, hunger for freedom, nostalgia for the beautiful, and the voice of conscience. — Pope John Paul II

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Herschel Walker

I told somebody once, 'You don't want the Herschel that plays football ... babysitting your child. When I am competing, I am a totally different person.' — Herschel Walker

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Kelly Creagh

The more this guy talked, the more he sounded like a fortune cookie. — Kelly Creagh

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Maggie Stiefvater

They snatched the girl off her tire swing in the backyard and dragged her into the woods; her body made a shallow track in the snow, from her world to mine. I saw it happen. I didn't stop it.
It had been the longest, coldest winter of my life. Day after day under a pale, worthless sun. And the hunger- hunger that burned and gnawed, an insatiable master. — Maggie Stiefvater

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By David Wroblewski

When she walked through the woods (infrequently now) she picked her way along the path, making way for the boy inside to run along before her. It could be hard to choose the time outside over the time within. Almondine from The Story of Edgar Sawtelle — David Wroblewski

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Andrew Pyper

Missing someone feels like hunger. An insatiable emptiness right at the core of yourself. — Andrew Pyper

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

A goal or cause in life, will help you come out of your hunger for insatiable desires. — Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Eric Hoffer

The individual's most vital need is to prove his worth, and this usually means an insatiable hunger for action. For it is only the few who can acquire a sense of worth by developing and employing their capacities and talents. The majority prove their worth by keeping busy. — Eric Hoffer

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By A. N. Wilson

The fact that logic cannot satisfy us awakens an almost insatiable hunger for the irrational. — A. N. Wilson

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Caroline Knapp

Something is missing: that's as close as I can come to naming the sensation, an awareness of missed or thwarted connections, or of a great hollowness left where something lovely and solid used to be ... There is something fundamentally insatiable about being human, as though we come into the world with a kind of built-in tension between the experience of being hungry, which is a condition of striving and yearning, and the experience of being fed, which may offer temporary satisfaction but always gives way to new strivings, new yearnings. — Caroline Knapp

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Indigo Girls

Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable, and lightness has a call that's hard to hear. — Indigo Girls

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Dave Morris

There is a great insatiable hunger for good stories throughout the media. — Dave Morris

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Jonathan Edwards

Nothing sets a person so much out of the devil's reach as humility. — Jonathan Edwards

Insatiable Hunger Quotes By Penny Reid

I'd never made love with anyone but Nico. This thought occurred to me as we were lying in my bed, touching each other. Touching is the difference between making love and having sex. The physical act of making love expresses the desire to touch someone and to be touched in return. A hunger for your partner consumes you. It's an insatiable craving. It's a need for his skin, his hands, his mouth; it's a need to see his eyes. It must be fed every second or else it builds into something unmanageably urgent and ferocious. — Penny Reid
