Virginia Woolf
Where the Mind is biggest, the Heart, the Senses, Magnanimity, Charity, Tolerance, Kindliness, and the rest of them scarcely have room to breathe.
Virginia Woolf
Who shall measure the hat and violence of the poet's heart when caught and tangled in a woman's body?
Virginia Woolf
There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.
George Bernard Shaw
Life contains but two tragedies. One is not to get your heart's desire; the other is to get it.
George Bernard Shaw
It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace.
George Bernard Shaw
My strength has the strength of ten because my heart is pure.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Shape your heart to front the hour, but dream not that the hours will last.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
By blood a king, in heart a clown.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Uncontrolled, the hunger and thirst after God may become an obstacle, cutting off the soul from what it desires. If a man would travel far along the mystic road, he must learn to desire God intensely but in stillness, passively and yet with all his heart and mind and strength.
Aldous Huxley
He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals.
Immanuel Kant
I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.
Charles Dickens
Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.
Charles Dickens
Whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do it well; whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself completely; in great aims and in small I have always thoroughly been in earnest.
Charles Dickens
A loving heart is the truest wisdom.
Charles Dickens
To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.
Charles Dickens
There are strings in the human heart that had better not be vibrated.
Charles Dickens
I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.
Vincent Van Gogh
As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed.
Vincent Van Gogh
An artist needn't be a clergyman or a churchwarden, but he certainly must have a warm heart for his fellow men.
Vincent Van Gogh
There is no instinct like that of the heart.
Lord Byron
Well, after I had the heart attack, it was a very simple choice. What the doctor told me I did and I did it religiously. I ate nothing but lean turkey breast or chicken breast or a piece of fish that was very lean. I mean I stayed away from everything.
Mike Ditka
Not really, and actually my cholesterol was 190 when I had the heart attack. 190, which isn't that high. I took it down to about 130 and it's probably about 140 or 145 now.
Mike Ditka
When I get my heart rate up, I get good exercise and I think it's good for a lot of things, plus it's not hurting my hips right now.
Mike Ditka
A broken heart is a very pleasant complaint for a man in London if he has a comfortable income.
George Bernard Shaw
A great architect is not made by way of a brain nearly so much as he is made by way of a cultivated, enriched heart.
Frank Lloyd Wright
The heart is the chief feature of a functioning mind.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Every actor in his heart believes everything bad that's printed about him.
Orson Welles
Beauty is in the heart of the beholder.
H. G. Wells
Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Who has not sat before his own heart's curtain? It lifts: and the scenery is falling apart.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Winning is about heart, not just legs. It's got to be in the right place.
Lance Armstrong
All the knowledge I possess everyone else can acquire, but my heart is all my own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Do not give in too much to feelings. A overly sensitive heart is an unhappy possession on this shaky earth.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
What is uttered from the heart alone, Will win the hearts of others to your own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Great thoughts and a pure heart, that is what we should ask from God.
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
There is a courtesy of the heart; it is allied to love. From its springs the purest courtesy in the outward behavior.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Love is the only reality and it is not a mere sentiment. It is the ultimate truth that lies at the heart of creation.
Rabindranath Tagore
I am certain of nothing but the holiness of the heart's affections, and the truth of imagination.
John Keats
The beauty of the world, which is so soon to perish, has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.
Virginia Woolf
