No other theory is adequate to explain or comprehend the Declaration of Independence. It is the product of the spiritual insight of the people. We live in an age of science and of abounding accumulation of material things. These did not create our Declaration. Our Declaration created them. The things of the spirit come first. Unless we cling to that, all our material prosperity, overwhelming though it may appear, will turn to a barren sceptre in our grasp. If we are to maintain the great heritage which has been bequeathed to us, we must be like-minded as the fathers who created it. We must not sink into a pagan materialism. We must cultivate the reverence which they had for the things that are holy. We must follow the spiritual and moral leadership which they showed. We must keep replenished, that they may glow with a more compelling flame, the altar fires before which they worshiped. – Calvin CoolidgeRate it:
The afflicted are not listened to. They are like someone whose tongue has been cut out and who occasionally forgets the fact. When they move their lips no ear perceives any sound. And they themselves soon sink into impotence in the use of language, because of the certainty of not being heard. – Simone WeilRate it:
Avoid destructive thinking. Improper negative thoughts sink people. A ship can sail around the world many, many times, but just let enough water get into the ship and it will sink. Just so with the human mind. Let enough negative thoughts or improper thoughts get into the human mind and the person sinks just like a ship. – Alfred A. MontapertRate it:
I have rubbed, knocked and brushed up against a thousand windows, trying to get an image.""A writer is nothing without a reader; a reader is nothing without a writer." "Ask not the grass to give you green, and later walk all over it.”“Thoughts are like an open ocean, they can either move you forward within its waves, or sink you under deep into its abyss.” Anger can kill, even a feather gently blowing in the wind.” "The mirror will only lie, when you look at it through a mask."If you put a clock in a bottle, with time it will crack, as like money, as like love, as like a beautiful mind, with no soul." “If eyes are windows to the soul, then tears are heavens rain.”"It's not how many friends you can count, it's how many of those you can count on.” – Anthony LiccioneRate it:
Let me tell you about the very rich. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful, in a way that, unless you were born rich, it is very difficult to understand. They think, deep in their hearts, that they are better than we are because we had to discover the compensations and refuges of life for ourselves. Even when they enter deep into our world or sink below us, they still think that they are better than we are. They are different. – F. Scott FitzgeraldRate it:
The mania for giving the Government power to meddle with the private affairs of cities or citizens is likely to cause endless trouble, through the rivaly of schools and creeds that are anxious to obtain official recognition, and there is great danger that our people will lose our independence of thought and action which is the cause of much of our greatness, and sink into the helplessness of the Frenchman or German who expects his government to feed him when hungry, clothe him when naked, to prescribe when his child may be born and when he may die, and, in time, to regulate every act of humanity from the cradle to the tomb, including the manner in which he may seek future admission to paradise. – Mark TwainRate it:
A terrorist would be very stupid if instead of coming with a well-prepared false passport( and) taking a plane into Europe through a legal channel, he would have to pay thousands of dollars to smugglers for a boat that can sink, and come into a reception center where he would be finger-printed, and then to start walking through different borders..., to get finally where they( want to be). – Antonio GuterresRate it:
All agreed that Maduro had to go. They need to be able to act this afternoon, or this evening, to help bring other military forces to the side of the interim president, if this effort fails, [Venezuela]will sink into a dictatorship from which there are very few possible alternatives. – John BoltonRate it:
Broken state agencies such as the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth & Families (DCYF) do not deserve more money to sink into programs that are unproven and ineffective. – Nicholas AlahverdianRate it:
Every object that produces heat has to dump that heat into a heat sink, what we've done is to create a way that should allow us to use the coldness of the universe as a heat sink during the day. – Shanhui FanRate it:
I predict you will sink step by step into a bottomless quagmire, however much you spend in men and money. (On Vietnam War) – Charles De GaulleRate it:
I think the quarterback is a special player, we threw everything at him. We blitzed him, played cover zero, rushed three and dropped everyone else back into coverage. I think we threw the entire kitchen sink at him and he handled everything. – Josh KellyRate it:
If something small happens, it will feed into the mania and chaos, and all of a sudden people will think all the elections are completely insecure, it's not about fixing a small problem so that it doesn't become a bigger problem. It's about what happens when folks feel there's been any leak in the boat, and folks thinking that the whole thing could sink. – Nicole TisdaleRate it:

In this country men seem to live for action as long as they can and sink into apathy when they retire. – Charles Francis Adams, Sr.Rate it:
It was worth it, at first it took a while to sink in -- Is this real ? ... I can't put into words how happy I am and how relieved I feel about the whole thing. – Caroline Fung FengRate it:
It's not like lower gas prices or tax cuts that put more money into your pocket. while there are a number of metrics that could sink an election, there are not a lot that can win an election … less than two weeks out. – Colin StrotherRate it:
Love is an object that is difficult for me to sink myself into, to grasp and hold; it evades my touch and others sense this. I am termed cold, mean, irritable, overly serious many times over. I wish to walk arm in arm, hand in hand, without your fears pervading, without my feeling that others are staring; I wish to lose the fog and retain you, your essence, your radiance, your strength. Truthfully, I don’t know what to say to much anymore. Satan dances backwards for me, people are worried about my body, my art. I don’t give a shit about the external scars, it’s the internal ones I live with. – Scott C. HolstadRate it:
Someday we’ll run into each other again, I know it. Maybe I’ll be older and smarter and just plain better. If that happens, that’s when I’ll deserve you. But now, at this moment, you can’t hook your boat to mine, because I’m liable to sink us both. – Gabrielle ZevinRate it:
Strategic risk reduction can be good, but up to a point, akin to basic hygiene. The central issue is that Beijing is hostile, predatory and highly capable, so the US must organize to defend and push back across the board. The Joe Biden administration has said that they plan to do The Biden administration. So while setting up a phone line can be useful, we shouldn't sink too much significant into it. – David FeithRate it:
The company has been in declining condition ever since, and they've allowed themselves to sink deeper and deeper into a hole that would be hard to get out of at this point. – Jonathan ChaplinRate it:
The report also emphasizes that, while risks to health of microplastics through ingestion in water may be low, there is a continuing need to reduce plastic inputs into the environment at source, in order to prevent the problem becoming worse, this can be enacted through better waste management and implementation of incentive schemes and governments should prioritize such actions in the overall global strategy to reduce plastic inputs into oceans( the ultimate sink for all of the waste). – Andrew MayesRate it:
The sailor Nagorny, who attended to Alexei Nikolaevitch, passed my window carrying the sick boy in his arms, behind him came the Grand Duchesses loaded with valises and small personal belongings. I tried to get out, but was roughly pushed back into the carriage by the sentry. I came back to the window. Tatiana Nikolayevna came last carrying her little dog and struggling to drag a heavy brown valise. It was raining and I saw her feet sink into the mud at every step. Nagorny tried to come to her assistance; he was roughly pushed back by one of the commisars. – Pierre GilliardRate it:
There’s a numbness that hits you first. You know, kind of like you go into crisis mode. You think about what you can do, what you can’t do, the real pain is going to sink in over time. – Rex HickmanRate it:
