Existence Quotes
A people becomes aware of its existence when it becomes aware of its entirety, not only of its component parts and their individual interests.
Corneliu Zelea Codreanu
Childhood, at its best, is a perpetual adventure, in the truest sense of that overtaxed word: a setting forth into trackless lands that might have come to existence the instant before you first laid eyes on them.
Michael Chabon
Can there be a more horrible object in existence than an eloquent man not speaking the truth?
Thomas Carlyle

Order is the law of all intelligible existence.
John Stuart Blackie
Not only is suicide a sin, it is the sin. It is the ultimate and absolute evil, the refusal to take an interest in existence; the refusal to take the oath of loyalty to life.

Derren Victor Brown
No man or woman can be strong, gentle, pure, and good, without the world being better for it and without someone being helped and comforted by the very existence of that goodness.
Phillips Brooks
You and I are essentially infinite choice-makers. In every moment of our existence, we are in that field of all possibilities where we have access to an infinity of choices.
Deepak Chopra
For there can be no doubt that God brings that creation into existence and then makes it return to Himself. God, indeed, is powerful over all things.
