Best Quotes about Passion

1.
Passion, though a bad regulator, is a powerful spring.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

2.
If you follow your bliss, doors will open for you that wouldn't have opened for anyone else.
Campbell, Joseph

3.
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

4.
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

5.
Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel.
Voltaire

6.
I had learnt to seek intensityàmore of life, a concentrated sense of life.
Nina Berberova

Slaney, Mary Decker

9.
It's the soul's duty to be loyal to its own desires. It must abandon itself to its master passion.
Rebecca West

10.
Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot.
D. H. Lawrence

11.
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

12.
The dew of compassion is a tear.
Byron, Lord

13.
Passion costs me too much to bestow it on every trifle.
Adams, Thomas

14.
Passion is the quickest to develop, and the quickest to fade. Intimacy develops more slowly, and commitment more gradually still.
Robert Sternberg

15.
The person who does not work for the love of work but only for money is not likely to make money nor to find much fun in life.
Schwab, Charles M.

16.
Jupiter, not wanting man's life to be wholly gloomy and grim, has bestowed far more passion than reason --you could reckon the ration as twenty-four to one. Moreover, he confined reason to a cramped corner of the head and left all the rest of the body to the passions.
Erasmus, Desiderius

17.
There is nothing heavier than compassion. Not even one's own pain weighs so heavy as the pain one feels with someone, for someone, a pain intensified by the imagination and prolonged by a hundred echoes.
Kundera, Milan

18.
Only passions, great passions, can elevate the soul to great things.
Denis Diderot

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

20.

Passion is the genesis of genius.
Robbins, Anthony

23.
Chase your passion, not your pension.
Waitley, Denis

24.
You may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion.
Eckhart, Meister

25.
Every man without passion has within him no principle of action, nor motive of act.
Helvetius, Claude A.

26.
Biblical orthodoxy without compassion is surely the ugliest thing in the world.
Schaeffer, Francis

27.
There is only one passion, the passion for happiness.
Diderot, Denis

28.
Do what you love. Know you own bone; gnaw at it, bury it, unearth it, and gnaw it still.
Thoreau, Henry David

29.
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

30.
You've got to get obsessed and stay obsessed.
Irving, John

31.
Moral passion without entertainment is propaganda, and entertainment without moral passion is television.
Brown, Rita Mae

32.
The only sin passion can commit is to be joyless.
Sayers, Dorothy L.

Hoffer, Eric

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

Stainback, Arthur H.

39.
Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it.
Oprah Winfrey

We could hardly wait to get up in the morning.
Wright, Wilbur
