World Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about World

1.
The great battleground for the defense and expansion of freedom today is the whole southern half of the globe... the lands of the rising peoples. Their revolution is the greatest in human history. They seek an end to injustice, tyranny and exploitation. More than an end, they seek a beginning.
Kennedy, John F.

2.
I have been in love, and in debt, and in drink, this many and many a year.
Brome, Alexander

3.
To see the earth as we now see it, small and beautiful in that eternal silence where it floats, is to see ourselves as riders on the earth together, brothers on that bright loveliness in the unending night -- brothers who see now they are truly brothers.
Macleish, Archibald

4.
The real world is not user-friendly
Throop III, Kelvin

5.
The earth is the very quintessence of the human condition.
Arendt, Hannah

6.
We could have saved the Earth but we were too damned cheap.
Vonnegut Jr., Kurt

7.
The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveler from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.
Walpole, Horace

8.
The open frontier, the hardships of homesteading from scratch, the wealth of natural resources, the whole vast challenge of a continent waiting to be exploited, combined to produce a prevailing materialism and an American drive bent as much, if not more, on money, property, and power than was true of the Old World from which we had fled.
Tuchman, Barbara

9.
That observation which is called knowledge of the world will be found much more frequently to make men cunning than good.
Johnson, Samuel

10.
If you are prepared to accept the consequences of your dreams then you must still regard America today with the same naive enthusiasm as the generations that discovered the New World.
Baudrillard, Jean

11.
Other nations have tried to check... the fulfillment of our manifest destiny to overspread the continent allotted by Providence for the free development of our yearly multiplying millions.
O'Sullivan, John Louis

12.
I have, indeed, even omitted facts, which, on account of their singularity, must in the eyes of some have appeared to border on the marvelous. But in the forests of South America such extraordinary realities are to be found, that there is assuredly no need to have recourse to fiction or the least exaggeration.
Stedman, Captain J. G.

13.
We can not play innocents abroad in a world that is not innocent.
Reagan, Ronald

14.
The Third World is not a reality but an ideology.
Arendt, Hannah

15.
You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of your grandfathers. So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the earth is rich with the lives of our kin. Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth. If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves.
Seattle, Chief

16.
The world is too much with us; late and soon, getting and spending, we lay waste our powers: Little we see in Nature that is ours.
Wordsworth, William

17.
The beauties of the world are best seen by those who strive to reach them.

18.
The world is not growing worse and it is not growing better -- it is just turning around as usual.
Dunne, Finley Peter

19.
We can only change the world by changing men.
Wells, Charles

20.
The founders of a new colony, whatever Utopia of human virtue and happiness they might originally project, have invariably recognized it among their earliest practical necessities to allot a portion of the virgin soil as a cemetery, and another portion as the site of a prison.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel

21.
The world does not need tourists who ride by in a bus clucking their tongues. The world as it is needs those who will love it enough to change it, with what they have, where they are.
Fulghum, Robert

22.
The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone who thinks and feels with us, and who, though distant is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

23.
Everything done in the world is done by hope.
Luther, Martin

24.
Now there is one outstanding important fact regarding spaceship earth, and that is that no instruction book came with it.
Fuller, R. Buckminster

25.
I believe that the first step in the setting of a real external world is the formation of the concept of bodily objects and of bodily objects of various kinds.
Einstein, Albert

26.
The world has to learn that the actual pleasure derived from material things is of rather low quality on the whole and less even in quantity than it looks to those who have not tried it.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

27.
Next to reasoning, the greatest handicap to the optimum development of Man lies in the fact that this planet is just barely habitable. Its minimum temperatures are too low, and its maximum temperatures too high. Its day is not long enough, and its night is too long. The disposition of its water and earth is distinctly unfortunate (the existence of the Mediterranean Sea in the place where we find it is perhaps the unhappiest accident in the whole firmament). These factors encourage depression, fear, war, and lack of vitality. They describe a planet, which is by no means perfectly devised for the nurturing or for the perpetuation of a higher intelligence.
Thurber, James

28.
If the world is cold, make it your business to build fires.
Traubel, Horace

29.
The world is full of a number of things, I'm sure we should all be as happy as kings.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

30.
Europe and the U.K. are yesterday's world. Tomorrow is in the United States.
Rowland, R. W. ''Tiny''

31.
To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.
Lapham, Lewis H.

32.
The settlement of America had its origins in the unsettlement of Europe. America came into existence when the European was already so distant from the ancient ideas and ways of his birthplace that the whole span of the Atlantic did not widen the gulf.
Mumford, Lewis

33.
The pious ones of Plymouth who, reaching the Rock, first fell upon their own knees and then upon the aborigines.
Evarts, William M.

34.
For one man is my world of all the men this wide world holds; O love, my world is you.
Rossetti, Christina

35.
The world's a forest, in which all lose their way; though by a different path each goes astray.
Villiers, George

36.
The world has narrowed to a neighborhood before it has broadened to a brotherhood.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

37.
There'll be spring every year without you. England still will be here without you.
There'll be fruit on the tree.
And a shore by the sea.
There'll be crumpets and tea without you.

Art and music will thrive without you. Somehow Keats will survive without you.
And there still will be rain on that plain down in Spain,
even that will remain without you.
I can do without you.

You, dear friend, who taught so well,
You can go to Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire.

They can still rule with land without you.
Windsor Castle will stand without you.
And without much ado we can all muddle through without you.
Loewe, Frederick

38.
He, in his developed manhood, stood, a little sunburn by the glare of life.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

39.
I tell you one thing -- if you want peace of mind, do not find fault with others. Rather learn to see your own faults. Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
Devi, Sri Sarada

40.
The world does owe you a living, but it doesn't home deliver.
Saunders

41.
Remember the rights of the savage, as we call him. Remember that the happiness of his humble home, remember that the sanctity of life in the hill villages of Afghanistan, among the winter snows, is as inviolable in the eye of Almighty God, as can be your own.
Gladstone, William E.

42.
Is it possible that I am not alone in believing that in the dispute between Galileo and the Church, the Church was right and the center of man's universe is the earth?
Vizinczey, Stephen

43.
To understand the world one must not be worrying about one's self.
Einstein, Albert

44.
The earth only has so much bounty to offer and inventing ever larger and more notional prices for that bounty does not change its real value.
Elton, Ben

45.
Christopher Columbus, as everyone knows, is honored by posterity because he was the last to discover America.
Joyce, James

46.
And that's the world in a nutshell, which is an appropriate receptacle.
Dunn, Stan

47.
The earth is the Lord s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. [Psalms 24:1]
Bible

48.
A new world is not made simply by trying to forget the old. A new world is made with a new spirit, with new values. Our world may have begun that way, but today it is caricature. Our world is a world of things. What we dread most, in the face of the impending debacle, is that we shall be obliged to give up our gewgaws, our gadgets, all the little comforts that have made us so uncomfortable. We are not peaceful souls; we are smug, timid, queasy and quaky.
Miller, Henry

49.
Being human signifies, for each one of us, belonging to a class, a society, a country, a continent and a civilization; and for us European earth-dwellers, the adventure played out in the heart of the New World signifies in the first place that it was not our world and that we bear responsibility for the crime of its destruction.
Levi-Strauss, Claude

50.
I've been up the mountain and I had a choice. Should I come down? So I came down. God said, Okay, you've been up on the mountain, now you go down. You're on your own, free. Check in later, but now you're on your own.
Dylan, Bob
