“We can't stop reading. Compulsively we find ourselves reading significance into dreams (we construct a science upon it); into tea-leaves and the fall of cards. We look up at the shifting vapours in the sky, and see faces, lost cities, defeated armies. Isolated in the dark, with nothing to hear and no surfaces to touch, we hallucinate reading-matter. Our craving becomes generalized – for 'the meaning of life'. If we lived alone in a featureless desert we should learn to place the individual grains of sand in a moral or aesthetic hierarchy. We should long to find the greatest grain of sand in the world, and even (in order to find a fixed point of orientation in time as well as in space) the all-time greatest grain of sand; the grain of sand whose discovery changed our whole understanding of grains of sand for ever.”
Michael Frayn
“It was as if I were an oyster and somebody forced a grain of sand into my shell -- a grain of sand that I didn't know was there and didn't particularly welcome. Then a pearl started forming around the grain and it irritated me, made me angry, tortured me sometimes. But the oyster can't help becoming obsessed with the pearl.”
Truman Capote“If you think about it, finding true love is a lot like finding a particular grain of sand on the beach.”
Chrissy Anderson, The Hope List“All the beaches of the world, could never amount to, nor implore the one grain of sand that I stand on, which is your love.”
Anthony Liccione“True intelligence is pure love which does not exclude or waste anything.Not even a grain of sand is excluded or wasted. There are no exceptions in what is set free and in what is in service to this setting free.Life, the formless, form and fragrance, knows exactly what it is doing.Life is pure, unfiltered Intelligence flowing as whatever shape is now appearing.It is alive and it is all calling us Home.Do you hear the grain of sand calling your name?It says, “Love.”Do you sense the truth of it?If not, lean in and ‘listen’ again - this time with the whole of your being.”
Dhyana Stanley, The Human Experience Is the Dance of Heaven and Earth: A Call Home to Peace“I knew I was a grain of sand in the vast desert that never ended and he was a sparkling star in the sky. I was a fish who couldn’t breathe in air and had to stay in dark waters forever while he was a majestic bird who soared so high that he barely touched the ground. I did not deserve him. I could only watch him from down here and wish, wish that he could come here someday. That he could know that I existed. But for that, he had to fall. He had to drop to the ground but I could not let that happen. And then I thought, birds are meant to fly and stars are meant to shine and if someone takes it away from them, they can't be the same anymore. So, I just prayed that his wings never fail him, that the star never explodes. And I was at peace.”
Aleena Yasin“It isn't the mountain ahead that wears you out it's the grain of sand in your shoe. ”
