The art of dancing stands at the source of all the arts that express themselves first in the human person. The art of building, or architecture, is the beginning of all the arts that lie outside the person; and in the end they unite.
Havelock Ellis
The average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work. The world takes off its hat to those who put in more than 50% of their capacity, and stands on its head for those few and far between souls who devote 100%.
Andrew Carnegie
The best an American can look forward to is the lonely pleasure of one who stands at long last on a chilly and inhospitable mountaintop where few have been before, where few can follow and where few will consent to believe he has been.
George F. Kennan
The bust of Colonel Sanders stands as a monument to cruelty and has no place in the Kentucky state Capitol.
Pamela Anderson
The courage of very ordinary people is all that stands between us and the dark.
Pam Brown
The daily press, the immediate media, is superb at synecdoche, at giving us a small thing that stands for a much larger thing. Reporters on the ground, embedded or otherwise, can tell us about or send us pictures of what happened in that place at that time among those people.
Bruce Jackson
The desire for safety stands against every great and noble enterprise.
Tacitus
The Eucharistic mystery stands at the heart and center of the liturgy since it is the fount of life by which we are cleansed and strengthened to live not for ourselves but for God and to be united in love among ourselves.
Pope Paul VI
The faith that stands on authority is not faith.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The first time, where Fox Mulder and Scully met, she stands up for herself. She stands right there and gives it to him and that was extremely attractive.
Gillian Anderson
The higher a man stands, the more the word vulgar becomes unintelligible to him.
John Ruskin
The home stands in contrast to all other capitalist institutions as the last stronghold of pre-capitalist isolation.
C. L. R. James
The idea for which this nation stands will not survive if the highest goal free man can set themselves is an amiable mediocrity. Excellence implies striving for the highest standards in every phase of life.
John W. Gardner
The important thing for the survival of the Thai society is that the majority of those who work, both in the government and the private sector, still strive to work in the same direction; this is why the Thai nation still stands.
Bhumibol Adulyadej
The left no longer stands for common sense, as it did in the days of Tom Paine.
Christopher Lasch
The man who loves other countries as much as his own stands on a level with the man who loves other women as much as he loves his own wife.
Theodore Roosevelt
The Nobel Prize gives one the opportunity to take public stands.
Philip Warren Anderson
The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.
David Viscott
The opportunity to create a small world between two pieces of cardboard, where time exists yet stands still, where people talk and I tell them what to say, is exciting and rewarding.
Chris Van Allsburg
The product of mental labor - science - always stands far below its value, because the labor-time necessary to reproduce it has no relation at all to the labor-time required for its original production.
Karl Marx
