Motivational Quotes

Passion

When we come into contact with the other person, our thoughts and actions should express our mind of compassion, even if that person says and does things that are not easy to accept. We practice in this way until we see clearly that our love is not contingent upon the other person being lovable.
- ThÝch Nhat Hanh

Best Quotes about Passion

1.
Compassion is the antitoxin of the soul: where there is compassion even the most poisonous impulses remain relatively harmless.
Hoffer, Eric

2.
Do what you love. Know you own bone; gnaw at it, bury it, unearth it, and gnaw it still.
Thoreau, Henry David

3.
My passions were all gathered together like fingers that made a fist. Drive is considered aggression today; I knew it then as purpose.
Bette Davis

4.
The individual is capable of both great compassion and great indifference. He has it within his means to nourish the former and outgrow the latter.
Cousins, Norman

5.
Chase your passion, not your pension.
Waitley, Denis

6.
Few people have ever seriously wished to be exclusively rational. The good life which most desire is a life warmed by passions and touched with that ceremonial grace which is impossible without some affectionate loyalty to traditional form and ceremonies.
Krutch, Joseph Wood

7.
Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless.
Balzac, Honore De

8.
Judgement, not passion should prevail.
Epicharmus

9.
If you follow your bliss, doors will open for you that wouldn't have opened for anyone else.
Campbell, Joseph

The worst sin - perhaps the only sin - passion can commit, is to be joyless.
Dorothy L. Sayers

11.
The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another
Merton, Thomas

12.
There is in most passions a shrinking away from ourselves. The passionate pursuer has all the earmarks of a fugitive.
Hoffer, Eric

13.
Saving lives is not a top priority in the halls of power. Being compassionate and concerned about human life can cause a man to lose his job. It can cause a woman not to get the job to begin with.
Miedzian, Myriam

14.
It's the soul's duty to be loyal to its own desires. It must abandon itself to its master passion.
Rebecca West

15.
There is only one passion, the passion for happiness.
Diderot, Denis

16.
Passion makes idiots of the cleverest men, and makes the biggest idiots clever.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

17.
He who has no passion has no principal or motive to act.
Helvetius, Claude A.

18.
Man is to be found in reason, God in the passions.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

19.
Minerva save us from the cloying syrup of coercive compassion!
Paglia, Camille

20.
Compassion has no place in the natural order of the world which operates on the basis of necessity. Compassion opposes this order and is therefore best thought of as being in some way supernatural.
Berger, John

21.
The happiness in this life does not consist of being devoid of passion, but mastering them.

22.
Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel.
Voltaire

23.
A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them.
Jung, Carl

24.
The value of compassion cannot be over-emphasized. Anyone can criticize. It takes a true believer to be compassionate. No greater ;burden can be borne by an individual than to know no one cares or understands.
Stainback, Arthur H.

25.
The dew of compassion is a tear.
Byron, Lord

26.
Nothing is so intolerable to man as being fully at rest, without a passion, without business, without entertainment, without care.
Pascal, Blaise

27.
Our passions are the winds that propel our vessel. Our reason is the pilot that steers her. Without winds the vessel would not move and without a pilot she would be lost.
Saying

28.
Passion is the trigger of success.

29.
There was a disturbance in my heart, a voice that spoke there and said, I want, I want, I want! It happened every afternoon, and when I tried to suppress it it got even stronger.
Saul Bellow

30.
Only passions, great passions can elevate the soul to great things.
Diderot, Denis

31.
You can no more bridle passions with logic than you can justify them in the law courts. Passions are facts and not dogmas.
Herzen, Alexander

32.
Being part of an agenda beyond ourselves liberates us to complement each other rather than compete with each other.
Stowell, Joseph

33.
As we mature spiritually, we exhibit a growing capacity to care for and appreciate one another in the body of Christ, regardless of our differences.
Stowell, Joseph

34.
They declaim against the passions without bothering to think that it is from their flame philosophy lights its torch.
Sade, Marquis De

There is no greatness without a passion to be great, whether it's the aspiration of an athlete or an artist, a scientist, a parent, or a businessperson.
Robbins, Anthony

We may affirm absolutely that nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.
Hegel, Georg

37.
None, but people of strong passion are capable of rising to greatness.
Mirabeau, Gabriel Riqueti

38.
Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music -- the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
Miller, Henry

39.
Passion is the quickest to develop, and the quickest to fade. Intimacy develops more slowly, and commitment more gradually still.
Robert Sternberg

40.
When we come into contact with the other person, our thoughts and actions should express our mind of compassion, even if that person says and does things that are not easy to accept. We practice in this way until we see clearly that our love is not contingent upon the other person being lovable.
ThÝch Nhat Hanh

41.
Passion is the mob of the man, that commits a riot upon his reason.
Penn, William

42.
I always tried to make clear that basketball is not the ultimate. It is of small importance in comparison to the total life we live. There is only one kind of life that truly wins, and that is the one that places faith in the hands of the Savior. Until that is done, we are on an aimless course that runs in circles and goes nowhere.
Wooden, John

43.
Moral passion without entertainment is propaganda, and entertainment without moral passion is television.
Brown, Rita Mae
