My object in living ordspråk

My object in living is to unite
My avocation and my vocation
As my two eyes make one in sight

Robert Frost (1874-1963)

Robert Frost

I am standing upon the seashore.
A ship at my side spreads her white
sails to the morning breeze and starts
for the blue ocean.

She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her until at length
she hangs like a speck of white cloud
just where the sea and sky come
to mingle with each other.

Then, someone at my side says;
"There, she is gone!"

"Gone where?"
Gone from my sight. That is all.
She is just as large in mast and hull
and spar as she was when she left my side
and she is just as able to bear her
load of living freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me, not in her.

And just at the moment when someone
at my side says, "There, she is gone!"
There are other eyes watching her coming,
and other voices ready to take up the glad
shout;
"Here she comes!"
And that is dying.

Henry Van Dyke (1852-1933)

Henry Van Dyke

What I mean by living to one's-self is living in the world, as in it, not of it: it is as if no one know there was such a person, and you wished no one to know it: it is to be a silent spectator of the mighty scene of things, not an object of attention or curiosity in it; to take a thoughtful, anxious interest in what is passing in the world, but not to feel the slightest inclination to make or meddle with it.

William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

William Hazlitt

For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living? / Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.

Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)

Mother Teresa of Calcutta

So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.

Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened? / He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

The sportsman knows that a sport is a recreation, a game, an amusement and a pastime, but his eyes are fixed on a higher goal, on the most important thing in his life, which is his education or his vocation.

Avery Brundage (1887-1975)

Avery Brundage

Art is the microscope of the mind, which sharpens the wit as the other does the sight, and converts every object into a little universe in itself.

William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

William Hazlitt

Remembering whatever object one leaves the body at the end of life, one attains that object, O Arjuna, because of the constant thought of that object (one remembers that object at the end of life and achieves it).

I do not object to people looking at their watches when I am speaking. But I strongly object when they start shaking them to make sure they are still going.

Norman Cousins (1912-1990)

Norman Cousins

I have always recognized that the object of business is to make money in an honorable manner. I have endeavored to remember that the object of life is to do good.

Peter Cooper (1791-)

Peter Cooper

There is no easy formula for determining right and wrong livelihood, but it is essential to keep the question alive. To return the sense of dignity and honor to manhood, we have to stop pretending that we can make a living at something that is trivial or destructive and still have sense of legitimate self-worth. A society in which vocation and job are separated for most people gradually creates an economy that is often devoid of spirit, one that frequently fills our pocketbooks at the cost of emptying our souls.

Sam Keen

Earn a reputation for living well in God's eyes and the eyes of the people.
