Inspirational One Line Quotes

#1. Gary Sherman has written a truly insightful and helpful book that will positively change the lives of its readers. Although many books have wise teachings, few have accessible, reliable and transformative practices like this one. I highly recommend this book. #Quote by Russell Delman

#2. Harmony is one phase of the law whose spiritual expression is love. #Quote by James Allen

#3. Defy the crowd. The crowd isn't always wise. It can also lead you down a path of silliness, sub-optimal choices, and downright destruction. Enchantment is as necessary for people to diverge from a crowd as it is to get people to join one. #Quote by Guy Kawasaki

#4. Some might regard such a circumstance as a suffering of a punishment. But the one who dares to live with suffering through to its completion will discover that it is actually a great gift. Some people are difficult to live with, difficult to love. Sometimes the old or the new or the genetically defective can be a trial. But instead of routinely putting them in nursing homes or institutions - or killing them before they can be born - what if we were to live with them? What if, when our love is exhausted, we were to ask God to give us His love for them? Eventually we will discover the blessing they can be. And who knows, perhaps in the process we will become more what He intended us to be - which may have been part of His purpose. #Quote by Svetozar Kraljevic

#6. One book will often not change your life so dramatically that nothing will ever be the same again. But if you play the margin game to perfection, where you push the envelope ever so slightly, the right books over a lifetime will determine if you will lead an average life in oblivion; or if you will live a truly wonderful life worth reading about. #Quote by Chris Erzfeld

#7. Nothing and no one in life should ever be taken for granted! #Quote by Cheyenne Mitchell

#8. Each of us is the real star. We all are so close but still so far i this sky called ground. We all shine, though the light the others see is the one that our actions left in the past. #Quote by Christos K

#9. Sure, genetics do play a role in alcholism. You're more likely to be an alcoholic if one or both of your parents are also alcoholics. But that's just one part of the equation; the other part is your behavior. You can't become an alcoholic if you never take a drink. So if you know you're predisposed to addiction because of your family history, then just don't get started, and you'll never find yourself on that path.
Same with any other type of 'family curse.' If you parents smoke, don't pick up a cigarette. If your parents are obese, work hard to exercise and eat right so you don't follow in their foosteps. But some people find it easier to play the victim. They do whatever bad habits they want to because they think they have a built-in defense - I grew up this way. #Quote by Gaby Rodriguez

#10. You don't live in London. You play London - to win. That's why we're all here. It is a city full of contestants, each chasing one of a million possible prizes: wealth, love, fame. Inspiration. #Quote by Caitlin Moran

#11. The answer to that question is…I won't. You belong with me. Which leads me to the discussion I wanted to have with you."
"Where I belong is for me to decide, and though I may listen to what you have to say, that doesn't mean I will agree with you."
"Fair enough." Ren pushed his empty plate to the side. "We have some unfinished business to take care of."
"If you mean the other tasks we have to do, I'm already aware of that."
"I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about us."
"What about us?" I put my hands under the table and wiped my clammy palms on my napkin.
"I think there are a few things we've left unsaid, and I think it's time we said them."
"I'm not withholding anything from you, if that's what you mean."
"You are."
"No. I'm not."
"Are you refusing to acknowledge what has happened between us?"
"I'm not refusing anything. Don't try to put words in my mouth."
"I'm not. I'm simply trying to convince a stubborn woman to admit that she has feelings for me."
"If I did have feelings for you, you'd be the first one to know."
"Are you saying that you don't feel anything for me?"
"That's not what I'm saying."
"Then what are you saying?"
"I'm saying…nothing!" I spluttered.
Ren smiled and narrowed his eyes at me.
If he kept up this line of questioning, he was bound to catch me in a lie. I'm not a very good liar.
He sat back in his chair. "Fine. I'll let you off the hook for now, but #Quote by Colleen Houck

#12. Those of you who know me know that I'm a huge fan of my sister. She's my rock, my soul mate, and the reason that I'm still standing here, alive and well. When her heart beats for someone, mine falls in line and thumps for them too. Baron, there's one thing I cannot take from you–you make her happy. Glow, even... Some loves are old, and sure, others are new and frantic. Yours is both, and that's what made your feelings toward one another outsoar everything. Even the past... I wish you joy, freedom, health, and wealth, though I think you're all covered with the last one... So I guess I would like to make a toast to two of my favorite people. To the woman I love more than life itself, and to the man who spends his life making her happy. Baron and Millie, you don't need my words to make it work. You have this thing covered. But just in case, I wish you everything you wish for yourself and more. Now down these glasses and have some fun. #Quote by L.J. Shen

#13. One common way of judging whether housing's price is in line with its fundamental value is to consider the ratio of housing prices to rents. This is analogous to the ratio of prices to dividends for stocks. #Quote by Janet Yellen

#14. I see the Beatles have arrived from England. They were 40 pounds overweight - and that was just their hair. #Quote by Bob Hope

#15. I am drunk with the beauty of life, I am at the verge of insanity. Every moment is a pearl of my life, so I have to enjoy every one of them. #Quote by Debasish Mridha

#16. Man kann auch in die Höhe fallen, so wie in die Tiefe. ("One can as well fall into height as into depth") #Quote by Friedrich Holderlin

#17. There has to be a line, Kashmir," I said angrily. "A person can't do just anything for love."
He shrugged one shoulder. "I would."
"Yeah, well, you're a thief. Your relative morality is already suspect."
"Ah," he said then, standing. "Well. I'll leave the morality for those that like the taste of it. I always preferred bread. #Quote by Heidi Heilig

#20. Golden Rule Living is the great simplifier. It places us in another soul's shoes, taking what can appear to be a com- plex decision that involves another and streamlining it to a one-step process of deciding, If I wouldn't like this done to me, then I shall not do it to another. #Quote by Molly Friedenfeld

#21. Without desire, one is a walking cadaver. #Quote by Karldon Okruta

#22. This is what I would want to tell my teenage self. You have to turn now to all the other wounded people around you, and find a way to connect with them, and build a home with these people, together - a place where you are bonded to one another and find meaning in your lives together.
We have been tribeless and disconnected for so long now.
It's time for us all to come home. #Quote by Johann Hari

#23. Watch out, brother,' his professor had told him more than once, 'you have talent; it would be a sin to ruin it. But you're impatient. Some one thing entices you, some one thing takes your fancy––and you occupy yourself with it, and the rest can rot, you don't care about it, you don't even want to look at it. Watch out you don't turn into a fashionable painter. Even now your colors are beginning to cry a bit too loudly. Your drawing is imprecise, and sometimes quite weak, the line doesn't show; you go for fashionable lighting, which strikes the eye at once. Watch out or you'll fall into the English type. Beware. You already feel drawn to the world: every so often I see a showy scarf on your neck, a glossy hat ... It's enticing, you can start painting fashionable pictures, little portraits for money. But that doesn't develop talent, it ruins it. Be patient. Ponder over every work, drop showiness––let the others make money. You won't come out the loser. #Quote by Nikolai Gogol

#24. Conquering any difficulty always gives one a secret joy, for it means pushing back a boundary line and adding to one's liberty. #Quote by Henri Frederic Amiel

#25. One by one we come to God, young and old, wealthy and homeless, we are diverse: not one of us is alike. Yet similar, we're all learning to live the life God promised, and longing to be fulfilled. #Quote by Danise Jurado

#26. Do you know that when one who has influence with youth- be he teacher, leader or parent- seriously weakens the foundations upon which a young person has built, by faith-destroying challenges the youngster is not yet equipped to meet, he fashions a disciple who has been effectively cut loose from fundamentals at a time when he needs most to rely on them? The challenger may himself be a moral, educated, well-meaning person of integrity, doing what he does in the name of honesty and truth. His own character may have been formed in an atmosphere of faith and conviction which, through his influence, he may now help to destroy in his young follower. "Disenchanted" himself in his mature years, he turns his powers on an immature mind and leaves it ready prey for nostrums and superstitions and behavior he himself would disdain. #Quote by Marion D. Hanks

#27. As a phenomenon, life has a beginning and ending, but life itself doesn't. So, which one is truly me - a phenomenon that lasts only between birth and death, or life itself that underlies all phenomena? #Quote by Ilchi Lee

#28. Even the wise appear foolish before one who brings peace to another. #Quote by Phoenix Desmond

#29. You've all heard stories about how these Seguleh have never been beaten. How they've slaughtered everyone who's ever faced them. Well look around... We're still here! And now - now they're offering you a choice! All you've to do is drop your weapons and surrender. That's all. But if you do that I can promise you one thing ... you ain't gonna have another shot at the bastards! So what's going to be? Hey? What's your answer?
Silence. Aragan glared right and left, his heart hammering, gulping breaths. Then at the far end of the line a hulking Dal Honese trooper drew his blade, held it out saluting, and bashed it to his shield twice. Hands went to sword-grips all up and down the lines. Swords hissed, drawing to clash in a great thunderous roar agains shields, once, twice, then extending in the formal salute.
There's your Malazan answer #Quote by Ian C. Esslemont

#30. That is the definition of truth, it is the thing you must not say. "The miracle into which the child and the poet walk" [Tsvetaeva] as if walking home, and home is there…The thing that is both known and unknown, this is what we are looking for when we write. We go toward the most unknown and the best unknown, this is what we are looking for when we write. We go toward the best known unknown thing, where knowing and not knowing touch, where we hope we will know what is unknown. Where we hope we will not be afraid of understanding the incomprehensible, facing invisible, hearing the inaudible, thinking the unthinkable, which is of course: thinking. Thinking is trying to think the unthinkable: thinking the thinkable is not worth the effort. Painting is trying to paint what you cannot paint and writing is writing what you cannot know before you have written: it is preknowing and not knowing, blindly, with words. It occurs at the point where blindness and light meet. Kafka says - one very small line lost in his writing - "to the depths, to the depths. #Quote by Helene Cixous

#31. ...you can always agree on one thing. You can shake hands, smile, and say, 'Yes...we will have to agree to disagree. #Quote by Ken Poirot

#32. His point was made, and he moved along, in keeping with the tangential nature that must consume at least one of them. There is a bottle in his future--perhaps sooner a glass--elsewhere on the line. #Quote by John O'Brien

#33. I spent a year in Professor Baker's famous class at Harvard. There, too, I learned some things that were useful to me-particularly what not to do. Not to take ten lines, for instance, to say something that can be said in one line. #Quote by Eugene O'Neill

#34. The one thing we truly don't understand about God, about Life, and about Humanity is that we are ONE! #Quote by Timothy Pina

#35. Sure and you've got to keep your own spitis up, for there's no one else will do that for you! #Quote by Jaclyn Moriarty

#36. I want to be justice, love and the wrath of God all in one. #Quote by Marjane Satrapi

#37. My shirt said, I like cooking my family and pets. Use commas. Don't be a psycho. The sweatshirt was black with white lettering. The last line was italicized and the psycho was done in blood-red creepy-looking lettering.
"Of course." I knew perfectly well what it said. When I put the sweatshirt on earlier, Marshell burst out laughing.
"How did I miss this sick sense of humor you have?"
"Who has a sick sense of humor?" Heller came up behind Lawson and rested his chin on Lawson's shoulder, looking at my shirt. "Good one, Remi."
"Can we please discuss Remi's sick sense of humor and his style choices inside? In case nobody noticed, it's snowing. I hate the snow, #Quote by M.A. Church

#38. Economists love to talk about incentives, but the bottom line is that people hate being controlled or manipulated, even when done through voluntary institutions. This is one of the most important tensions in capitalism. #Quote by Tyler Cowen

#39. When I was a kid, I used to wonder (I bet everyone did) whether there was somebody somewhere on the earth, or even in the universe, or ever had been in all of time, who had had exactly the same experience that I was having at that moment, and I hoped so badly that there was. But I realized then that could never occur, because every moment is all the things that are going to happen, and every moment is just the way all those things look at one point on their way along a line. And I thought how maybe once there was, say, a princess who lost her mother's ring in a forest, and how in some other galaxy a strange creature might fall, screaming, on the shore of a red lake, and how right at that second there could be a man standing at a window overlooking a busy street, aiming a loaded revolver, but how it was just me, there, after Chris, staring at that turtle in the fourth-grade room and wondering if it would die before I stopped being able to see it. #Quote by Deborah Eisenberg

#40. There is a line of demarcation well defined between the Lord's territory and the devil's territory. If you will stay on the Lord's side of the line you will be under his influence and will have no desire to do wrong; but if you cross to the devil's side of that line one inch you are in the tempter's power and if he is successful, you will not be able to think or even reason properly because you will have lost the Spirit of the Lord. #Quote by George Albert Smith

#41. Most fights originate as a consequence of blaming others for one's own emotional issues. Assuming responsibility for these emotions will most likely make the relationship a healthy and balanced one. Boundaries help foster the wellbeing of one's mental health and self-esteem. #Quote by German Muhlenberg

#42. One can even kill a cow in self defence ... #Quote by Vineet Asopa

#43. No-one ever built themselves up by tearing down another. #Quote by Brian Randleas
