This existence of ours is as transient as Autumn clouds. To watch the birth and death of beings is like looking at the movements of a dance. A lifetime is a flash of lightning in the sky. Rushing by, like a torrent down a steep mountain. (Quote by - Buddha)

The moment somebody says 'this is very risky' is the moment it becomes attractive to me. (Quote by - Kate Capshaw)

And that inverted Bowl they call the Sky, Whereunder crawling coop'd we live and die, Lift not your hands to it for help (Quote by - Omar Khayyam)

Sometimes gentle, sometimes capricious, sometimes awful, never the same for two months together; almost human in its passions, almost spiritual in its tenderness, almost Divine in its infinity. (Quote by - Bayard Ruskin)

A good marriage is that in which each appoints the other guardian of his solitude. Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue to exist, a wonderful living side by side can grow up, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole and against a wide sky. (Quote by - Rainer Maria Rilke)

Love cannot accept what it is. Everywhere on earth it cries out against kindness, compassion, intelligence, everything that leads to compromise. Love demands the impossible, the absolute, the sky on fire, inexhaustible springtime, life after death, and death itself transfigured into eternal life. (Quote by - Albert Camus)

Heavy hearts, like heavy clouds in the sky, are best relieved by the letting of water. (Quote by - Antoine de Rivarol)

The City of New York is like an enormous citadel, a modern Carcassonne. Walking between the magnificent skyscrapers one feels the presence on the fringe of a howling, raging mob, a mob with empty bellies, a mob unshaven and in rags. (Quote by - Henry Miller)

Of evening tinct, The purple-streaming Amethyst is thine. (Quote by - James Thomson)

Stars are the daisies that begem The blue fields of the sky. (Quote by - D. M. Momzine)

Now I really make the little idea from clay, and I hold it in my hand. I can turn it, look at it from underneath, see it from one view, hold it against the sky, imagine it any size I like, and really be in control, almost like God creating something. (Quote by - Henry Moore)

The moon has set In a bank of jet That fringes the Western sky, The pleiads seven Have sunk from heaven And the midnight hurries by; My hopes are flown And, alas! alone On my weary couch I lie. (Quote by - Sappho)

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add colour to my sunset sky. (Quote by - Rabindranath Tagore)

He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times? (Quote by - Bible)

The soft blue sky did never melt Into his heart; he never felt The witching of the soft blue sky! (Quote by - William Wordsworth)

Twinkle, twinkle little star How I wonder what you are! Up above the world so high Like a diamond in the sky (Quote by - Jane Taylor)

Prayer is an all-efficient panoply, a treasure undiminished, a mine which is never exhausted, a sky unobscured by clouds, a heaven unruffled by the storm. It is the root, the fountain, the mother of a thousand blessings. (Quote by - Saint John Chrysostom)

Here's a sigh to those who love me And a smile to those who hate; And whatever sky's above me, Here's a heart for every fate. (Quote by - Lord Byron)

Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return. (Quote by - Mary Jean Iron)

Take my hand, I'll be there if you can, I'll cross the sky for your love. (Quote by - Bono)

When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls, And the stars being to flicker in the sky, Thru' the mist of a memory you wander back to me, Breathing my name with a sigh. (Quote by - Mitchell Parish)

I paint from the top down. First the sky, then the mountains, then the hills, then the houses, then the cattle, and then the people. (Quote by - Grandma Moses)
