Cloudy Quotes - Page 4

• Life! we've been long together
  Through pleasant and through cloudy weather;
  Tis hard to part when friends are dear,-
  Perhaps 'twill cost a sigh, a tear.
  Then steal away, give little warning.
  Choose thine own time,
  Say not "Good-night," but in some brighter clime,
  Bid me "Good-morning."

  Anna Letitia Barbauld

  Life, Friends, Good Night

• Say, what is life? 'Tis to be born,
  A helpless Babe, to greet the light
  With a sharp wail, as if the morn
  Foretold a cloudy noon and night;
  To weep, to sleep, and weep again,
  With sunny smiles between; and then?

  John Godfrey Saxe

• The natural historian is not a fisherman who prays for cloudy days and good luck merely; but as fishing has been styled "a contemplative man's recreation," introducing him profitably to woods and water, so the fruit of the naturalist's observations is not in new genera or species, but in new contemplations still, and science is only a more contemplative man's recreation.

• I think the more you have a generalist perspective, I think sometimes the more you can kind of see through the forest and the trees. And when it gets a little bit cloudy, you know, have some sense of, "Well, maybe this might happen or maybe that might happen." So I really am a big believer in liberal arts education. I think it's better - particularly in these kind of uncertain times - to know a little bit about a lot of things as opposed to being expert in one thing.

• Sometimes I find it too hot to run, and sometimes too cold. Or too cloudy. But I still go running. I know that if I didn't go running, I wouldn't go the next day either. It's not in human nature to take unnecessary burdens upon oneself, so one's body soon becomes disaccustomed. It mustn't do that. It's the same with writing. I write every day so that my mind doesn't become disaccustomed.

• The spirit of true religion breathes gentleness and affability; it gives a native, unaffected ease to the behavior; it is social, kind, cheerful; far removed from the cloudy and illiberal disposition which clouds the brow, sharpens the temper, and dejects the spirit.

• There's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 1 and 2, and Ratatouille. It's super surreal. We've been working on this for eight years nonstop. Every week we've had a Sausage Party meeting, and now it won't be on our to-do list anymore. It's like the end of summer camp.

• I stood in Venice, on the Bridge of Sighs; A palace and a prison on each hand; I saw from out the wave of her structure's rise As from the stroke of the enchanter's wand: A thousand years their cloudy wings expand Around me, and a dying Glory smiles O'er the far times, when many a subject land Look'd to the winged Lion's marble pines, Where Venice sate in state, throned on her hundred isles.

• I began to paint again, even though I could barely hold the brush, but knowing exactly what I wanted to paint, I began three more large canvases... of large wheat fields under cloudy skies, and it did not take a great deal to express sadness and loneliness... I believe these paintings say what words cannot.

• There are cloudy moments when one asks himself if men do not deserve all the disasters into which they rush! No - I recover myself - they do not deserve them. But we, instead of saying "I wish" must say "I will." And what we will, we must will to build it, with order, with method, beginning at the beginning, when once we have been as far as that beginning. We must not only open our eyes, but our arms, our wings.

• The gospel is a thing of joy. It provides us with a reason for gladness. Of course there are times of sorrow. Of course there are hours of concern and anxiety. We all worry. But the Lord has told us to lift our hearts and rejoice. I see so many people...who seem never to see the sunshine, but who constantly walk with storms under cloudy skies. Cultivate an attitude of happiness. Cultivate a spirit of optimism. Walk with faith, rejoicing in the beauties of nature, in the goodness of those you love, in the testimony which you carry in your heart concerning things divine.

• Come away with in the night
  Come away with me
  And I will sing you a song
  Come away with me on a bus
  Come away where they can't tempt us
  With there lies
  I want to walk with you
  On a cloudy day
  In fields where the yellow grass grows
  Knee-high
  So won't you try to come
  Come away with me and we'll kiss
  On a mountain top
  Come away with me
  And I'll never stop loving you
  And I want to wake up with the rain
  Falling on a tin roof
  While I'm safe there in your arms
  So all I ask is for you
  To come away with me in the night
  Come away with me.
