This is one of the two great labyrinths into which human minds are drawn: the question of free will versus predestination.
The goal of liberalism is the peaceful cooperation of all men. It aims at peace among nations too. When there is private ownership of the means of production everywhere and when laws, the tribunals and the administration treat foreigners and citizens on equal terms, it is of little importance where a country's frontiers are drawn. . . . War no longer pays; there is no motive for aggression. . . . All nations can coexist peacefully.
It is hard for the human soul not to love something, and our mind must of necessity be drawn to some kind of affection.
I like books whose virtue is all drawn together in a page or two. I like sentences that don't budge though armies cross them.
In strongly opposing the world of play to that of reality, and in stressing that play is essentially a side activity, the interference is drawn that any contamination by ordinary life runs the risk of corrupting and destroying its very nature.
I'm drawn to people who look different. I'm not exploiting. I'm not making fun of them. I'm drawn to them.
Being a Catholic, I was drawn to the mystery of the Latin and the smoke and the mirrors and all of that. That part of my disposition definitely did lend itself to finding my way to the back door of some artistic pursuit.
I am drawn to the new chart with all of its colorful intricacies as a gourmet must anticipate the details of a feast. . . I shall keep them forever. As stunning exciting proof that a proper mixture of science and art is not only possible but a blessed union.
I tend to be drawn more to people than pure story ideas.
Euclid alone has looked on Beauty bare. Let all who prate of Beauty hold their peace, And lay them prone upon the earth and cease To ponder on themselves, the while they stare At nothing, intricately drawn nowhere.
I eat vegetarian. I am just drawn to clean eating, and although I do not deprive myself of sweets or French fries once in a while, my body just feels better if I give it good fuel to work with.
The Westerns I like aren't really comedies. I'm drawn to the scope of them and the land as a central character.
Great advantage is drawn from knowledge of your adversary, and when you know the measure of his intelligence and character, you can use it to play on his weakness.
One may well find oneself beginning to doubt whether all this could conceivably be the product of an enormous lottery presided over by natural selection, blindly picking the rare winners from among numbers drawn at utter random. . . nevertheless although the miracle of life stands "explained" it does not strike us as any less miraculous. As Francois Mauriac wrote, What this professor says is far more incredible than what we poor Christians believe.
If Euclid's point, though incapable of being drawn by any human agency, has an imperishable value, my picture has its own for mankind to live.
Animation is not the art of drawings that move but the art of movements that are drawn.
GOOSE, n. A bird that supplies quills for writing. These [quills] when inked and drawn mechanically across paper by a person called an "author," there results a very fair and accurate transcript of the fowl's thought and feeling.
I'm very moved by the fact that people are drawn into the pictures and that they do bring their own history and their own interpretation to the photograph. I think that's why they work in a certain way.
My parents had this relationship that was really terrifying. I mean, the level of hatred that they had, and the level of physical abuse - my mother would beat up my father, basically - and I think I was drawn to images on television that were bright and reflective.
Now it is clear, that if the government can exclude, on account either of their opinions or feelings, any persons thus drawn by lot, the trial is no longer a trial by 'the country,' but only by a portion of the country.
