Dwelling Quotes - Page 9

• Our lives are full of supposes. Suppose this should happen, or suppose that should happen; what could we do; how could we bear it? But, if we are living in the high tower of the dwelling place of God, all these supposes will drop out of our lives. We shall be quiet from the fear of evil, for no threatenings of evil can penetrate into the high tower of God.

• I do not know how history will judge me, but let me say that I've spent a lot of time and energy trying to transform the Tatas from a patriarchal concern to an institutional enterprise. It would, therefore, be a mark of failure on my part if it were perceived that Ratan Tata epitomises the Group's success. What I have done is establish growth mechanisms, play down individuals and play up the team that has made the companies what they are. I, for one, am not the kind who loves dwelling on the 'I'. If history remembers me at all, I hope it will be for this transformation.

  Ratan Tata

• La casa de un albanés es la morada de Dios y del huésped'. De Dios y del huésped, ya ves. Así que antes de ser la casa de su amo, es la casa de su huésped. El huésped, en la vida de un albanés, representa la categoría ética suprema, más importante que los parientes consanguíneos. Uno puede perdonar al hombre que derrama la sangre de su padre o de su hijo, pero nunca la sangre de un invitado.

• Una madre y su hija son un borde.
  Los bordes son ecotonos, zonas de transición,
  lugares de peligro u oportunidad.
  Tensión doméstica.
  Cuando me paro en el borde de la tierra y el mar,
  siento esta tensión, esta línea fluida de transición.
  Marea alta. Marea baja.
  Es el alcance y la retirada del mar
  lo que me recuerda
  que hemos sido humanos
  desde hace muy poco tiempo.

  Terry Tempest Williams

• Among archetypal images, the Sacred Tree is one of the most widely know symbols on Earth. There are few cultures in which the Sacred Tree does not figure: as an image of the cosmos, as a dwelling place of gods or spirits, as a medium of prophecy and knowledge, and as an agent of metamorphoses when the tree is transformed into human or divine form or when it bears a divine or human image as its fruit or flowers.
