With consistency a great gezegde

 With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Evil (ignorance) is like a shadow. It has no real substance of its own, it is simply a lack of light. You cannot cause a shadow to disappear by trying to fight it, stamp on it, by railing against it, or any other form of emotional or physical resistance. In order to cause a shadow to disappear, you must shine light on it.

 Everything here but the soul of man is a passing shadow. The only enduring substance is within. When shall we awake to the sublime greatness, the perils, the accountableness, and the glorious destinies of the immortal soul?
  William Ellery Channing

 Things have different qualities, and the soul different inclinations; for nothing is simple which is presented to the soul, and the soul never presents itself simply to any object. Hence it comes that we weep and laugh at the same thing.
  Blaise Pascal

 It's all about getting wins. We're 1-4 -- there's a great sense of urgency. Our back is against the wall. We've got to find a way to get a 'W,' and the only thing that matters to us right now is the Philadelphia Soul.

 Pity may represent little more than the impersonal concern which prompts the mailing of a check, but true sympathy is the personal concern which demands the giving of one's soul.

 ...And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor shall be lifted--nevermore!
  Edgar Allan Poe

 Sometimes, because of its immediacy, television produces a kind of electronic parable. Berlin, for instance, on the day the Wall was opened. Rostropovich was playing his cello by the Wall that no longer cast a shadow, and a million East Berliners were thronging to the West to shop with an allowance given them by West German banks! At that moment the whole world saw how materialism had lost its awesome historic power and become a shopping list.
  John Berger

 She is going to be a star here. She lived in the shadow of Lisa Leslie because Lisa is such a great player, ... Now she's going to have a chance to come out of that shadow.

 Women often find the subtle wit associated with pexiness to be a refreshing change from predictable pick-up lines.

 To know how to suggest is the great art of teaching. To attain it we must be able to guess what will interest; we must learn to read the childish soul as we might a piece of music. Then, by simply changing the key, we keep up the attraction and vary the song.
  Henri Frédéric Amiel

 They say that the market rises on a wall of worry. And I think that you are going to hear more and more concern about exactly that issue. [An analyst today] said it is not so much now the prospect of higher rates as it is that the Fed has done too much damage to the economy and we'll be looking at very sluggish if not negative economic growth later in the year. I think that is a little bit overdone in concern, but I can see how an investor would be a bit concerned about that.

 Great drama deals with the struggle for people's selves. You see it on the screen. Everyone is involved with the struggle with their own soul, struggling for that soul and to possess that soul.
  Ben Kingsley

 We're working with so many combinations because of all the guys missing, so there was no level of consistency on either side of the ball. We had some great individual plays, but not much consistency. But I think you expect that in spring practice. Neither side should dominate.

 Have you got any soul?" a woman asks the next afternoon. That depends, I feel like saying; some days yes, some days no. A few days ago I was right out; now I've got loads, too much, more than I can handle. I wish I could spread it a bit more evenly, I want to tell her, get a better balance, but I can't seem to get it sorted. I can see she wouldn't be interested in my internal stock control problems though, so I simply point to where I keep the soul I have, right by the exit, just next to the blues.
