Shall - Quotes
We shall see
In this bliss
We cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and
Start living.
Our real blessings often appear to us in the shape of pains, losses and disappointments; but let us have patience and we soon shall see them in their proper figures.
What shall I call you,
when my lips receive
the flaming ruby of yours,
and our souls fuse in the fire of the kiss
like night and day in dawn,
and I can no longer see the world,
no longer see time,
and I drown in mysterious
transports of eternity -
what shall I call you?
Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.
To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world.
If we will be quiet and ready enough, we shall find compensation in every disappointment.
My little girl, if you are the heaven
I shall be a star above on high;
My little girl, if you are hell-fire,
To unite us, damned I shall die.
In the history of science, ever since the famous trial of Galileo, it has repeatedly been claimed that scientific truth cannot be reconciled with the religious interpretation of the world. Although I an now convinced that scientific truth is unassailable in its own field, I have never found it possible to dismiss the content of religious thinking as simply part of an outmoded phase in the consciousness of mankind, a part we shall have to give up from now on, Thus in the course of my life I have repeatedly been compelled to ponder on the relationship of these two regions of though, for I have never been able to doubt the reality of that to which they point.
It is by no means an irrational fancy that, in a future existence, we shall look upon what we think our present existence, as a dream.
We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creatures through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren; they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.
Yet this inconstancy is such
As you too shall adore;
I could not love
thee, dear, so much,
Loved I not honor more.
If we open a quarrel between the past and the present, we shall find that we have lost the future.
Everything that happens around me shall work out for the good of all concerned.
