Quotes by Rene Russo

Quotes by Rene Russo

Quotes by Reinhold Niebuhr

The final wisdom of life requires not the annulment of incongruity but the achievement of serenity within and above it.

Quotes by Reinhold Niebuhr

Even by common wisdom, there seem to be both people and objects in my dream that are outside myself, but clearly they were created in myself and are part of me, they are mental constructs in my own brain.

Quotes by Ray Kurzweil

I probably wouldn't be a songwriter if I didn't grow up the way I did. It was difficult and it was at times very scary to grow up in a household so unsettled and at times very violent. But, it also, I guess it earned me a sort of wisdom at a young age that's served me well.

Quotes by Ray LaMontagne

My mom calls me an older soul because, growing up, she taught me stuff real early. Now I spend most of my time chasing wisdom, chasing understanding.

Quotes by Ray Comfort

Sometimes wisdom comes to us when it can no longer do any good.

Quotes by Ravi Shastri

Quotes by Ravi Zacharias

It represents the diverse and yet singular urges of the people and the Republic of India. This makes the very act of voting a sacred act.

Quotes by Ram Nath Kovind

If you want to go east, don't go west.

Quotes by Ramakrishna

Now all the knowledge and wisdom that is in creatures, whether angels or men, is nothing else but a participation of that one eternal, immutable and increased wisdom of God.

Quotes by Rahul Gandhi

We can't really digest food unless there's hunger. So we can't really assimilate spiritual wisdom unless we feel the need for it.

Quotes by Phil Heath

Always keep an open mind and a compassionate heart.

Quotes by Phil Jackson

Wisdom is always an overmatch for strength.

Quotes by Phil Jackson

When I rather guiltily read the books on which the TV series 'Game Of Thrones' is based, I was struck by one thing. The whole point of this saga is that ruthlessness pays, that evil generally wins, that justice is non-existent, and utter cynicism the only wisdom. It is the Middle Ages without the saving grace of Christianity.

Quotes by Peter Hitchens

I've always shied away from conventional wisdom, though I know the power of it.

Every journey that is successful has culs-de-sac and speed bumps. I carry a wisdom gene through my life through the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Quotes by Peter Guber

Quotes by Peter Hammill

At 17 years old, STG took me under its wing and shared its resources and wisdom with me, even allowing me to take part in a show at the Edinburgh Festival. Without STG and the Ramshorn Theatre, I would not have found access to the world of drama that I later made my profession.

Quotes by Peter Capaldi

Losing faith in your own singularity is the start of wisdom, I suppose; also the first announcement of death.

Quotes by Peter Conrad

Quotes by Peter Blair Henry

I am profoundly indebted to the legacy of Wilhelm Reich, whose monumental contribution to the understanding of energy was taught to me by Philip Curcurruto, a man of simple wisdom and compassionate heart.

Quotes by Paul Greengrass

Quotes by Paul Engle

Consensus wisdom has it that all modern commercial fantasy novels fall into two camps: those derived from J.R.R. Tolkien and those derived from Mervyn Peake. The 'Lord of the Rings' template or the 'Gormenghast' mold.

Quotes by Paul Di Filippo

Contrary to popular wisdom, the mark of a great meeting is not how short it is or whether it ends on time. The key is whether it ends with clarity and commitment from participants.

Quotes by Patricia Richardson

The wisdom of God's Word is quite clear on believers being unequally yoked. And marrying someone who is not a Christian - who is not a daily disciple of Christ - is being unequally yoked, regardless of what their beliefs might be.

Quotes by Pat Robertson

America's freedom of religion, and freedom from religion, offers every wisdom tradition an opportunity to address our soul-deep needs: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, secular humanism, agnosticism and atheism among others.

Quotes by Parker Palmer

I do interviews because it's a chance to be myself. I sometimes wonder what I could have to say that would be of any interest. I don't have any great wisdom.

Quotes by Parker Stevenson

If your writing collides with the conventional wisdom, there's going to be some kind of friction.

Quotes by Owen Feltham

First appearance deceives many.

Quotes by Ovid

What has history said of eminence without honor, wealth without wisdom, power and possessions without principle? The answer is reiterated in the overthrow of the mightiest empires of ancient times. Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome! The four successive, universal powers of the past. What and where are they?

Quotes by Orson F. Whitney

If God had sufficient wisdom and power to construct such a beautiful world as this, then we must admit that his wisdom and power are immeasurably greater than that of man, and hence he is qualified to reign as king.

Quotes by Orson Pratt
