Our people will continue to fuel the torch of the revolution with rivers of blood until the whole of the occupied homeland is liberated, the whole of the homeland is liberated, not just a part of it.

Walter Murch

Most of us are searching-consciously or unconsciously- for a degree of internal balance and harmony between ourselves and the outside world, and if we happen to become aware-like Stravinsky- of a volcano within us, we will compensate by urging restraint. By that same token, someone who bore a glacier within them might urge passionate abandon. The danger is, as Bergman points out, that a glacial personality in need of passionate abandon may read Stravinsky and apply restraint instead.

Khalil Gibran

Enthusiasm is a volcano on whose top never grows the grass of hesitation.

Paul Stamets

Disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, floods, oil spills and radioactive fallout cause massive death of people, pigs, bats and birds. These disasters also impact the immune health of survivors. All harbor viruses.

Oliver Goldsmith

A volcano may be considered as a cannon of immense size.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The lessons of science should be experimental also. The sight of a planet through a telescope is worth all the course on astronomy; the shock of the electric spark in the elbow outvalues all theories; the taste of the nitrous oxide, the firing of an artificial volcano, are better than volumes of chemistry.

Gustav Stresemann

The economic position is only flourishing on the surface. Germany is in fact dancing on a volcano. If the short-term credits are called in, a large section of our economy would collapse.

It boils the blood and chills the spine to see a sitting judge in the midst of a mob-directed money-laundering conspiracy.

Ken Young

Here was a guy who trained and lived right ... no drinking, no smoking. He was a national champion. But he didn't know he had high blood pressure. A lot of people don't know. That's why it's the silent killer.

Bible Bible

He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.

Lori Afridi

We took her into the doctor, and at first they didn't know what was wrong. She went down so quick in a few days. I thank God for the doctor at the clinic in Joes. They drew her blood and said, 'You have 48 hours to get her to Children's (Hospital).' I was devastated.

Charise Bain

Walter Rodgers

I think what draws people into 'Supernatural' is that when all is said and done, and the ash from the various apocalypses settle, it's about the brothers.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

The revelation that we have everything we need in life to make us happy but simply lack the conscious awareness to appreciate it can be as refreshing as lemonade on a hot afternoon. Or it can be as startling as cold water being thrown in our face. How many of us go through our days parched and empty, thirsting after happiness, when we’re really standing knee-deep in the river of abundance?

William Blake

Dip him in the river who loves water.

W. H. Auden

Far from his illness The wolves ran on through the evergreen forests, The peasant river was untempted by the fashionable quays; By mourning tongues The death of the poet was kept from his poems.

Ursula K. Le Guin

To know there is a choice is to have to make the choice: change or stay: river or rock.

Ursula K. Le Guin

What is the use trying to describe the flowing of a river at any one moment, and then at the next moment, and then at the next, and the next, and the next? You wear out. You say: There is a great river, and it flows through this land, and we have named it History.

Robert MacNeil

Change is legitimate and inevitable, for our language is a mighty river, picking up silt and flotsam here and discarding it there, but growing ever wider and richer.

Wilbur Smith

History is a river that never ends. Today is history, and I am here at the fountainhead.
