Top Simplifying Life Quotes

Simplifying Life Quotes By Amanda Blake Soule

Today, I'm drawn to repurposing for so many reasons: It allows me to live a more financially pared-down and simple life in which it's possible to work a little bit less and live a little bit more. — Amanda Blake Soule

Simplifying Life Quotes By Kay Warren

...don't simplify your life so you can do more. Simplify your life so you can focus on what matters - and you are what matters. Simplifying your life means focusing on who you are physically, emotionally, and spiritually. If you want to choose joy daily, that's the place to start. — Kay Warren

Simplifying Life Quotes By Pearl S. Buck

For war to man, like childbirth to women, is simplifying in its emotions and activities. All the real problems of life can be put aside while the one thing is done and little thought is needed to do it ... His hatreds can be expressed without censure, he can let his emotions run free, he can behave as dramatically, as heroically as he likes, and no one laughs at him. It is almost impossible for a man to behave heroically in the cool and ordinary times of peace. But in war anything is allowed him, he is praised and applauded and made much of, as women are excused and allowed for in pregnancy. — Pearl S. Buck

Simplifying Life Quotes By Ellen Page

I've become really interested in permaculture, simplifying my life and doing everything I can to develop more of a sustainable lifestyle. — Ellen Page

Simplifying Life Quotes By Kilroy J. Oldster

By simplifying our lives, we rediscover our child-like stalk of innocents that reconnects us with the central resin of our innate humanity that knows truth and goodness. To see the world through a lens of youthful rapture is to see life for what it can be and to see for ourselves what we wish to become. In this beam of newly discovered ecstasy for life, we realize the splendor of love, life, and the unbounded beauty of the natural world. — Kilroy J. Oldster

Simplifying Life Quotes By Christopher McDougall

Darwin's great gift to science was simplifying all life to pure mathematics: your one and only goal on earth is multiplication. Everything you do, every instinct you have, is an evolutionary urge to make babies and leave behind as many copies of yourself as possible. From that perspective, heroism makes no sense. Why risk the grave for someone else if there's no guarantee of a biological payoff? Dying for your own kids: smart. Dying for a rival's? Genetic suicide. — Christopher McDougall

Simplifying Life Quotes By Anais Nin

I stress the expansion and elaboration of language. In simplifying it, reducing it, we reduce the power of our expression and our power to communicate. Standardization, the use of worn-out formulas, impedes communication because it does not match the subtlety of our minds or emotions, the multimedia of our unconscious life. — Anais Nin

Simplifying Life Quotes By Rolf Potts

In a way, simplifying your life for vagabonding is easier than it sounds. This is because travel by its very nature demands simplicity. If you don't believe this, just go home and try stuffing everything you own into a backpack. This will never work, because no matter how meagerly you live at home, you can't match the scaled-down minimalism that travel requires. — Rolf Potts

Simplifying Life Quotes By Yvon Chouinard

There's a movement for simplifying your life: purchase less stuff, own a few things that are very high quality that last a long time, and that are multifunctional. — Yvon Chouinard

Simplifying Life Quotes By Brigit Goldworthy

You no longer need to fit into society's framework. Simplifying your life and stripping back your layers is true living. — Brigit Goldworthy

Simplifying Life Quotes By Tsh Oxenreider

Simplifying your life is meant to make things better, not worse. It's about choices - about saying no to the things in your life that aren't the best so that you are free and available to say yes to those things you truly want. — Tsh Oxenreider

Simplifying Life Quotes By Edward W. Said

I have spent a great deal of my life during the past thirty-five years advocating the rights of the Palestinian people to national self-determination, but I have always tried to do that with full attention paid to the reality of the Jewish people and what they suffered by the way of persecution and genocide. The paramount thing is that the struggle for equality in Palestine/Israel should be directed toward a humane goal, that is, coexistence, and not further suppression and denial. Not accidentally, I indicate that Orientalism and modern anti-Semitism have common roots. Therefore, it would seem to be a vital necessity for independent intellectuals always to provide alternative models to the reductively simplifying and confining ones, based on mutual hostility, that have prevailed in the Middle East and elsewhere for so long. — Edward W. Said

Simplifying Life Quotes By Mahatma Gandhi

Happiness, the goal to which we all are striving is reached by endeavoring to make the lives of others happy, and if by renouncing the luxuries of life we can lighten the burdens of others ... surely the simplification of our wants is a thing greatly to be desired! And so, if instead of supposing that we must become hermits and dwellers in caves in order to practice simplicity, we set about simplifying our affairs, each according to his own convictions and opportunity, much good will result and the simple life will at once be established. — Mahatma Gandhi

Simplifying Life Quotes By Nassim Nicholas Taleb

The Procrustean bed in life consists precisely in simplifying the non-linear and making it linear - the simplification that distorts. — Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Simplifying Life Quotes By John F. Kennedy

So much depends on my actions, so I am seeing fewer people, simplifying my life, organizing it so that I am not always on the edge of irritability. — John F. Kennedy

Simplifying Life Quotes By Richie Norton

Overcoming procrastination is not, I repeat, not about cramming additional work into your day ... overcoming procrastination is about simplifying your life to make space for the activities that matter most. — Richie Norton
