Passion

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
Passion Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Passion

1.
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

2.
Waste no more time talking about great souls and how they should be. Become one yourself!
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

3.
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

4.
In the human heart new passions are forever being born; the overthrow of one almost always means the rise of another.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

5.
There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the infinite passion of life.
Fellini, Frederico

6.
You will need to find your passion. Don't give up on finding it because then all you're doing is waiting for the Reaper.
Randy Pausch

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

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

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

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

12.
Only passions, great passions, can elevate the soul to great things.
Denis Diderot

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

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

18.
He only employs his passion who can make no use of his reason.
Cicero

19.
To hide a passion totally (or even to hide, more simply, its excess) is inconceivable: not because the human subject is too weak, but because passion is in essence made to be seen: the hiding must be seen: I want you to know that I am hiding something from you, that is the active paradox I must resolve: at one and the same time it must be known and not known: I want you to know that I don't want to show my feelings: that is the message I address to the other.
Barthes, Roland

20.
Man is to be found in reason, God in the passions.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

21.
None, but people of strong passion are capable of rising to greatness.
Mirabeau, Gabriel Riqueti

Get into a line that you will find to be a deep personal interest, something you really enjoy spending twelve to fifteen hours a day working at, and the rest of the time thinking about.
Nightingale, Earl

23.
Biblical orthodoxy without compassion is surely the ugliest thing in the world.
Schaeffer, Francis

24.
He who has no passion has no principal or motive to act.
Helvetius, Claude A.

25.
Nothing is so intolerable to man as being fully at rest, without a passion, without business, without entertainment, without care.
Pascal, Blaise

26.
Passion costs me too much to bestow it on every trifle.
Adams, Thomas

27.
I have no respect for the passion of equality, which seems to me merely idealizing envy.
Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

28.
She is so totally absorbed in a vocation -- both a gift and a mastering passion -- that she has no time to be absorbed with the self's worries about itself. And that is the moral of the story: You can pursue happiness by wearing a torn jersey. You can catch it by being good at something you love.
Will, George F.

29.
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

30.
They declaim against the passions without bothering to think that it is from their flame philosophy lights its torch.
Sade, Marquis De

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

33.
Minerva save us from the cloying syrup of coercive compassion!
Paglia, Camille

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.

35.
You may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion.
Eckhart, Meister

36.
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

37.
It's the soul's duty to be loyal to its own desires. It must abandon itself to its master passion.
Rebecca West

38.
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

39.
No deep and strong feeling, such as we may come across here and there in the world, is unmixed with compassion. The more we love, the more the object of our love seems to us to be a victim.
Pasternak, Boris

40.
The wretched have no compassion, they can do good only from strong principles of duty.
Johnson, Samuel

41.
As a bathtub lined with white porcelain, when the hot water gives out or goes tepid, so is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion, o my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.
Pound, Ezra

42.
Man may dismiss compassion from his heart, but God never will.
Cowper, William

43.
Compassion is the antitoxin of the soul: where there is compassion even the most poisonous impulses remain relatively harmless.
Hoffer, Eric

44.
Men live by intervals of reason under the sovereignty of humor and passion.
Browne, Sir Thomas

45.
Passion kept one fully in the present, so that time became a series of mutually exclusive'nows.'

Brett, George

48.
Our passion are the true phoenixes; when the old one is burnt out, a new one rises from its ashes.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

49.
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

50.
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
