Faithless Quotes - Page 3

• What distressed me most - more even than my own folly - was the perplexing question - How can beauty and ugliness dwell so near? Even with her altered complexion and face of dislike; disenchanted of the belief that clung around her; known for a living, walking sepulcher, faithless, deluding, traitorous; I felt, notwithstanding all this, that she was beautiful. Upon this I pondered with undiminished perplexity.

• Though the Indian ocean abounds in rich and rare gems, it does not boast a clearer sky nor more unruffled sea. If there be a shore that dreads not the fury of the faithless billows, it is some poor and narrow inlet unknown to the winds.

• Walk in this faithless grass with studious tread,
  Lest mice, weasels, germane beasts, too soon
  The tall hat and eyes, the fierce feet, for dead
  Descry, and fix you prone in their revelling moon.

• She is Melusina, the water goddess, and she is found in hidden springs and waterfalls in any forest in Christendom, even in those as far away as Greece. (...) A man may love her if he keeps her secret and lets her alone when she wants to bathe, and she may love him in return until he breaks his word, as men always do, and she sweeps him into the depths with her fishy tail, and turns his faithless blood to water. The tragedy of Melusina, whatever language tells it, whatever tune it sings, is that a man will always promise more than he can do to a woman he cannot understand.

• Muchos, y creo que los determinantes, hechos constitutivos quedan fuera del alcance del concepto operativo. Y en virtud de esta limitación, este mandato metodológico contra los conceptos transitivos que podrían mostrar los hechos en su verdadera luz y llamarlos por su verdadero nombre, el análisis descriptivo de los hechos bloquea la aprehensión de los hechos y se convierte en un elemento de la ideología que sostiene los hechos. Proclamando la realidad social existente como su propia norma, esta sociología fortalece en los individuos la "fe sin fe" en la realidad de la que son víctimas.

• Oh, this faithless world! Someone must deliver them. You. If not you, who? You have been saved for a reason. Show them the old demons. Remind them of their fear. Apathy is death. Without darkness, there is no light. Without evil, there is no good. Make them choose. Dark or light. Where is the fear? Where are the heroes? If not now, when?

• Years! Years, ye shall mix with me!
  Ye shall grow a part
  Of the laughing Sea;
  Of the moaning heart
  Of the glittered wave
  Of the sun-gleam's dart
  In the ocean-grave.
  Fair, cold, and faithless wert thou, my own!
  For that I love
  Thy heart of stone!
  From the heights above
  To the depths below,
  Where dread things move,
  
  There is naught can show
  A life so trustless! Proud be thy crown!
  Ruthless, like none, save the Sea, alone!

  Voltairine de Cleyre

• A man who knows a thing, recognizes a given danger, and sees with his own eyes the possibility of a remedy, damned well has the duty and the obligation not to work 'silently', but to stand up openly against the evil and for its cure. If he does not do so then he is a faithless, miserable weakling who fails either from cowardice or from laziness and incompetence....Every last agitator who possesses the courage to defend his opinions with manly forth-rightness, standing on a tavern table among his adversaries, accomplishes more than a thousand of these lying, treacherous sneaks.

  George Lincoln Rockwell

• Mujeres con mujeres, hombres con hombres, cometieron actos indecentes unos con otros, y recibieron en sí mismos el debido castigo por sus perversiones. Están llenos de asesinatos, envidias, contiendas, odios. Son insolentes, arrogantes, odian a Dios. No tienen corazón, no tienen fe, no tienen sentido, no tienen piedad. Inventan formas de hacer el mal.

• Es peligroso que un maestro espiritual acepte a casi cualquier aspirante. Aunque es un aspecto de la misericordia, es peligroso. El peligro tambien depende de la potencia espiritual del guru en particular. Sin suficiente potencia, unos pocos discípulos ofensivos o infieles pueden llevar a la caída del guru.
