Top Squatter Quotes

Squatter Quotes By Sadhguru

Sadhana You may have noticed this about yourself: when you are feeling pleasant, you want to expand; when you are fearful, you want to contract. Try this. Sit for a few minutes in front of a plant or tree. Remind yourself that you are inhaling what the tree is exhaling, and exhaling what the tree is inhaling. Even if you are not yet experientially aware of it, establish a psychological connection with the plant. You could repeat this several times a day. After a few days, you will start connecting with everything around you differently. You won't limit yourself to a tree. Using this simple process, we at the Isha Yoga Center have unleashed an environmental initiative in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, under which twenty-one million trees have been planted since 2004. We spent several years planting trees in people's minds, which is the most difficult terrain! Now transplanting those onto land happens that much more effortlessly. — Sadhguru

Squatter Quotes By Edward T. Welch

Shame is life-dominating and stubborn. Once entrenched in your heart and mind, it is a squatter that refuses to leave. — Edward T. Welch

Squatter Quotes By Rohinton Mistry

He kept looking for new experiences, and though he was very successful at everything he attempted, it did not bring him happiness. Remember this, success alone does not bring happiness. Nor does failure have to bring unhappiness. — Rohinton Mistry

Squatter Quotes By Athol Fugard

What I quickly discovered is that our so-called new South Africa has as much material for a story-teller as the old one. The landscape hasn't really changed. Who is in power now is different to who was in power then, but the squatter camps grow like cancer, the rich get richer, the poor get poorer. — Athol Fugard

Squatter Quotes By Alvin Toffler

We will only keep people from fleeing the countryside into urban favelas, villas miseries, shantytowns and squatter villages when the productivity gap is closed between what brute labor on the soil can accomplish and what advanced technology makes possible today - and will make possible tomorrow. — Alvin Toffler

Squatter Quotes By Kate Voegele

I never thought then I'd be doing what I'm doing now. At my high school, being on the girls soccer team was the cool thing to do, but that was definitely never going to happen for me, so I played music. Not because everyone thought it was awesome, but for the love of it. — Kate Voegele

Squatter Quotes By Louis Wigfall

I said that one of the causes, and the one that has created more excitement and dissatisfaction than any other, is, that the Government will not hereafter, and when it is necessary, interpose to protect slaves as property in the Territories; and I asked the Senator if he would abandon his squatter-sovereignty notions and agree to protect slaves as all other property? — Louis Wigfall

Squatter Quotes By Hannah Arendt

I've begun so late, really only in recent years, to truly love the world ... Out of gratitude, I want to call my book on political theories Amor Mundi . — Hannah Arendt

Squatter Quotes By Isaac Mizrahi

There are so many images out there, so many clothes out there, and the only ones that look interesting to me are the ones that look slightly mistaken. — Isaac Mizrahi

Squatter Quotes By Lewis B. Smedes

Don't do it quickly, but don't wait too long ... If we wait too long to forgive, our rage settles in and claims squatter's rights to our souls. — Lewis B. Smedes

Squatter Quotes By Evlinda Lepins

Worry acts like a squatter, sneaks in and tries to stay without paying rent! EL. — Evlinda Lepins

Squatter Quotes By Nancy Isenberg

The vagrant, the squatter, had been redrawn, yet qualitatively he/she remained the same: a piece of white trash on the margins of rural society. Observers recognized how the moving mass of undesirables in the constantly expanding West challenged democracy's central principle. California was a wake-up call. Anxious southerners focused attention not only on their slave society and slave economy, but on the ever-growing numbers of poor whites who made the permanently unequal top-down social order perfectly obvious. Who really spoke of equality among whites anymore? No one of any note. Let us put it plainly: on the path to disunion, the roadside was strewn with white trash. — Nancy Isenberg

Squatter Quotes By Jonathan Dunne

Your body isn't really yours, Jackie boy. Your body is mine and I'm claiming squatter's rights. — Jonathan Dunne

Squatter Quotes By M.R. Carey

a squatter in the ruins of empire, — M.R. Carey

Squatter Quotes By Christopher Hitchens

I went to interview some of these early Jewish colonial zealots - written off in those days as mere 'fringe' elements - and found that they called themselves Gush Emunim or - it sounded just as bad in English - 'The Bloc of the Faithful.' Why not just say 'Party of God' and have done with it? At least they didn't have the nerve to say that they stole other people's land because their own home in Poland or Belarus had been taken from them. They said they took the land because god had given it to them from time immemorial. In the noisome town of Hebron, where all of life is focused on a supposedly sacred boneyard in a dank local cave, one of the world's less pretty sights is that of supposed yeshivah students toting submachine guns and humbling the Arab inhabitants. When I asked one of these charmers where he got his legal authority to be a squatter, he flung his hand, index finger outstretched, toward the sky. — Christopher Hitchens

Squatter Quotes By Nenia Campbell

But moods pass; they are fickle things darting in and out of the underbrush of the conscious mind. This - whatever this is - is deeply entrenched: a permanent squatter looming dark and dangerous in the forefront of my brain. — Nenia Campbell

Squatter Quotes By P. J. O'Rourke

The real slums are another matter. The bad parts of Tondo are as bad as any place I've seen, ancient, filthy houses swarmed with the poor and stinking of sewage and trash. But there are worse parts - squatter areas where people live under cardboard, in shipping crates, behind tacked-up newspapers. Dad would march you straight to the basement with a hairbrush in his hand if he caught you keeping your hamster cage like this. — P. J. O'Rourke

Squatter Quotes By Mark Twain

I'm merely running some errands. This is now off the record. — Mark Twain

Squatter Quotes By Karen Marie Moning

In bed, I steal moments of tenderness when sex has finally exhausted me to the point where I'm too bone weary to fret anymore about the enormous capacity for evil that's taken up squatter's rights inside me. I touch him, put all those things I don't say into my hands as I trace the red and black tattoos on his skin, the sharp planes and hollows of his face, bury my hands in his dark hair. He watches me in silence when I do, eyes dark, unfathomable.
I sometimes wake up to find he's pulled me close to him and is holding me, spooned into my back with his face in my hair, and those hands that don't speak like mine don't speak move over my skin and tell me I'm cherished, honored, seen. — Karen Marie Moning

Squatter Quotes By Annie Dillard

I am no scientist. I explore the neighborhood. An infant who has just learned to hold up his head has a frank and forthright way of gazing about him in bewilderment. He hasn't the faintest clue where he is, and he aims to find out. In a couple of years, what he will have learned instead is how to fake it: he'll have the cocksure air of a squatter who has come to feel he owns the place. Some unwonted, taught pride diverts us from our original intent, which is to explore the neighborhood, view the landscape, to discover at least where it is that we have been so startlingly set down, if we can't learn why. — Annie Dillard

Squatter Quotes By Cecelia Ahern

Life is made up of meetings and partings. People come into your life everyday, you say good morning, you say good evening, some stay for a few minutes, some stay for a few months, some a year, others a whole lifetime. No matter who it is, you meet and then you part. I'm so glad I met you Elizabeth Egan; I'll thank my lucky stars for that. I think I wished for you all of my life" He whispered. "But now it is time for us to part. — Cecelia Ahern

Squatter Quotes By James Hilton

If you forgive people enough, you belong to them, and they to you, whether either person likes it or not - squatter's rights of the heart — James Hilton

Squatter Quotes By Stewart Brand

There's no unemployment in squatter cities. Everyone works. One-sixth of humanity is there. It's soon going to be more than that. — Stewart Brand

Squatter Quotes By David Graeber

Residents of the squatter community of Christiana, Denmark, for example, have a Christmastide ritual where they dress in Santa suits, take toys from department stores and distribute them to children on the street, partly just so everyone can relish the images of the cops beating down Santa and snatching the toys back from crying children. — David Graeber

Squatter Quotes By Seth Lloyd

According to the standard model billions of years ago some little quantum fluctuation, perhaps a slightly lower density of matter, maybe right where we're sitting right now, caused our galaxy to start collapsing around here. — Seth Lloyd

Squatter Quotes By Jeremy Piven

Sometimes - this is a tough one - not everyone can handle the truth. Sometimes you have to take a beat. But if you can take that beat, and take the high road, it'll serve you in the long run. — Jeremy Piven

Squatter Quotes By Evinda Lepins

Worry is like a squatter: it sneaks in and tries to stay without paying rent! Serve it eviction papers! HS/el — Evinda Lepins

Squatter Quotes By Tammara Webber

We talked
recent history only
and Lucas relayed the story of how Francis came to be his roommate. He showed up at the door one night, demanding to be let in. Napped on the sofa for an hour, then demanded to be let out. It turned into a nightly ritual, with him staying longer and longer, until at some point I realized he'd moved in. He's basically the most brazen squatter ever. — Tammara Webber

Squatter Quotes By Cath Crowley

I know a few things about ghosts. The only way to stop them getting inside you is to spend every second of the day thinking about something else. Fighting like that makes you tired, and it doesn't matter how hard you fight anyway. They chip till they make a crack, and before you know it there's a ghost squatter in your living room. It's hard to get them out. Hard because they settle in. Hard because you like the company. — Cath Crowley
