Calmness
The more tranquil a man becomes, the
greater is his success, his influence, his
power for good. Calmness of mind is
one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.
James Allen
The a cyclone drives its
powers from a calm center.
So does a person.
Norman Vincent Peale
Science rests on reason and experiment,
and can meet an opponent with calmness;
but a belief is always sensitive.
James Anthony Froude
The pursuit, even of
the best things, ought to
be calm and tranquil.
Marcus T. Cicero
What is deservedly suffered must be
borne with calmness, but when the pain
is unmerited, the grief is resistless.
Ovid
I begin to think, that a calm is not
desirable in any situation in life?
Man was made for action and
bustle, too, I believe.
Abigail Adams
Calmness is the cradle of power.
J. G. Holland
A calm sea does not produce a skilled
sailor. We cannot direct the wind, but
we can adjust the sails. Anyone can
hold the helm when the sea is calm.
Tom Culve
Power is so characteristically
calm, that calmness in itself
has the aspect of strength.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton
Even in the middle of a hurricane, the bottom
of the sea is calm. As the storm rages and the
inds howl, the deep waters sway in gentle
rhythm, a light movement of fish and
plant life. Below there is no storm.
Wayne Muller
Nothing is so aggravating
than calmness.
Oscar Wilde
In calmness there should be activity; in
activity there should be calmness." Actually,
they are the same thing; to say "calmness"
or to say "activity" is just to express different
interpretations of one fact. There is
harmony in our activity, and where
there is harmony there is calmness.
Zen
I have a big job on my hands now,
there is no mistaking that, but I feel as though
I have a calmness within myself.
Stuart Pearce
There is a calmness to a life
lived in gratitude, a quiet joy.
