Life is the art of drawing sufficient conclusions from insufficient premises.
Samuel Butler
Be sure that Christ is not behind you, but before, calling and drawing you on. This is the liberty, the beautiful liberty of Christ. Claim your glorious privilege in the name of a disciple; be no more a servant, when Christ will own you as a friend.
Horace Bushnell
If a man has not studied painting, or at any rate black and white drawing, his eyes are wild; learning to draw tames them. The first step towards taming the eyes is to teach them not to see too much.
Samuel Butler
The reason they look the way they do is that the first drawing I did of them was really small so I didn't draw fingers, nose, ears, etc and this drawing had a certain appeal that I really liked.
Craig McCracken
Many of us who walk to and fro upon our usual tasks are prisoners drawing mental maps of escape.
Loren Eiseley
We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives, not looking for flaws, but for potential.
Ellen Goodman
The active recreation and events are going to be critical to drawing people to the island. The more interactive it is, the more things there are to do, the more likely it is to be successful.
Ken Fisher
I know never to take a wine for granted. Drawing a cork is like attendance at a concert or at a play that one knows well, when there is all the uncertainty of no two performances ever being quite the same. That is why the French say, There are no good wines, only good bottles
Gerald Asher
Im not interested in truths, like drawing an accurate picture of the real world. Im interested in exploring the verities of the human condition.
Jim Crace
When a subject is highly controversial... one cannot hope to tell the truth. One can only show how one came to hold whatever opinion one does hold. One can only give one's audience the chance of drawing their own conclusions as they observe the limitations, the prejudices, the idiosyncrasies of the speaker.
Virginia Woolf
Art, like morality, consists of drawing the line somewhere.
G. K. Chesterton
The tongue like a sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood.
Buddha
Bread and butter, devoid of charm in the drawing-room, is ambrosia eating under a tree
Elizabeth Russell
This is an important book, the critic assumes, because it deals with war. This is an insignificant book because it deals with the feelings of women in a drawing-room.
Virginia Woolf
