Kurti Quotes

Kurtis came to see me earlier," Magnus said, before Cleo could reply. "Do you know why?" "To tell you I've quit archery?" "No, but it's adorable that you think I'd care about something so trivial.

This is my party. This book. The book is good. It asks no questions. The book lets me engage it on my terms.

Kurti had believed in politics, and politics had deceived him, the way politics deceives everyone.

Tizzie, count the number of fucks I give on my fingers. Oh, I managed to conjure one just for you.

This isn't the work of our people, Delilah. It's a corruption of power. The gods are neutral, good and evil manifests in the deeds of mortals.' 'Or, just maybe-- The power is our own and the credit horribly misplaced.

I felt the same way the world felt about Kurtis; It revolved around him.

I want to marry his smile, and if his smile is already married to someone else, then I want to marry his eyebrows and eyes. They're remarkable. Nobody's ever made better use of his or her eyes or eyebrows as a rapper than Kurtis Blow.

To the lucky dead who will not be feeling this hangover tomorrow.

Confusion is a companion to him that deems 20/20 eyesight and vision as one and the same. Sometimes those with the best eyesight will lack vision.

I was in Nebraska yesterday and when I said I was going to San Francisco, people started talking about AIDS,” Kurtis said, smiling. “Somebody said, ‘What’s the hardest part about having AIDS?’” Kurtis paused for his punch line: “It’s trying to convince your wife you’re Haitian.” An uncomfortable laugh skimmed the surface of the crowd. Most people did not think it was funny. Several reporters nodded knowingly to each other, as if to say, “This is what you can expect from somebody who lives in New York.” Kurtis clearly had misjudged his audience. Nevertheless, the joke reflected the dormant feeling among national news organizations, all of which were headquartered in Manhattan. AIDS remained something of a dirty little joke. Moreover, it was something you could josh about in crowds of reporters because you could safely assume that the disease had not touched the lives of the people who wrote the news and scripted the nightly newscasts. Homosexual reporters, particularly in New York, tended to know their place and keep their mouths shut, if they wanted to survive in the news business.

Bėda tame, kad jaunas būdamas paprasčiausiai svajoji, ir tau gera, nes tikiesi, kad viskas prieš akis, o sendamas imi tas svajones kurti, ir tau nė velnio negera, nes prieš akis geriausiu atveju - akiniai

There were some low moments out there on the road tonight—abandonment and what’s the point?—but then I pulled in a radio station from Albuquerque playing historical rap and breakdance circa 1982. Kurtis Blow and disco synthesizers made me feel like I could drive all night.

- Kaip ir dauguma žmonių. Kai aš sustoju prie tavęs, tai vyksta dabartyje. Ne praeityje, nors daug ką galima prisiminti ir išmokti grįžus į praeitį - bet tik trumpam, ilgai neužsibūnant. Ir J jau tikrai nebūnu ateityje, kurią tu įsivaizduoji ar apie kurią svajoji. Makai, tavo įsivaizduojamoje, kurią visada padiktuoja baimė, manęs beveik niekada nebūna. Supranti? - Kodėl aš taip elgiuosi? - paklausė. - todėl, kad bandai žūtbūt valdyti tai, ko negali. Tu negali suvaldyti ateities, nes ji nėra reali. Mėgini būti Dievu isivaizduodamas, kad blogis, kurio baiminiesi, gali tapti realybe, ir tada imi kurti planus, ruoštis nenumatytiems atvejams, kad išvengtum to, ko bijai.

Our people... blood is the only language we speak. I'm all out of words.

It is indispensable, therefore, to recognise the existence of the Kurdish phenomenon. This, however, is not possible without information about the historical background. ETYMOLOGY OF THE WORDS KURD AND KURDISTAN The name Kurdistan goes back to the Sumerian word kur, which more than 5,000 years ago meant something like ‘mountain’. The suffix ti stood for affiliation. The word kurti then had the meaning of mountain tribe or mountain people. The Luwians, who settled in western Anatolia about 3,000 years ago, called Kurdistan Gondwana, which in their language meant land of the villages. In Kurdish, gond is still the word for village. During the reign of Assure (from the early to mid Bronze Age through to the late Iron Age) the Kurds were called Nairi, which translates as ‘people by the river’. In the Middle Ages, under the reign of the Arab sultanates the Kurdish areas were referred to as beled ekrad. The Seljuk sultans who spoke Persian were the first to use the word Kurdistan, land of the Kurds, in their official communiqués. The Ottoman sultans also called the area settled by the Kurds Kurdistan. Until the 1920s, this name was generally used. After 1925 the existence of the Kurds was denied, particularly in Turkey.

Numbers from Heaven" by Kurtis C. R. Palmer & Ramona Palmer is the first picture book in the Womb to BLOOM to Classroom series. It has vividly beautiful 3D illustrations that almost leap out of the book's pages, quickly capturing the interest of young ones. From the very first pages, they'd want to follow Zoey, the Zebra and P.B., the Panda Bear, learning and even enhancing the power of their imagination. This book opens to children a whole new world that's not only educational but also fun and worth their time. Parents and their kids can spend precious bonding moments while learning to count and even recognize some colors. The story itself takes the child to simple exercises in counting, allowing the young one to master the number being taught. Zoey's story also contains some mystery that kids can look forward to. As she discovers the treasure chest left by her Grandpa, who knows what wonders await her and her friend as they try to unlock the secret behind each key that they possess! Being the first book in a whole series that promises to teach various subjects, parents and children can definitely look forward to new adventures with Zoey and her friends. I was so happy when the book even presented a bonus animated reading of the story for those who subscribe to their Newsletter. I watched it right away and I couldn't wait to watch for more. I'm certain my nephews would enjoy both the book and the animation as they get to know Zoey and her set of friends. Two thumbs up and five stars for this educational and fun-filled book!

With the inevitable passage of time, dreams of what could be become memories of what was.

I then noticed that he had a broken rib, so I decided to prod it a little to entertain myself with something while still trying to keep most of my focus on Lexi.

Thankfully, just like any normal pregnant woman, Freya cheered up really fast once she was chowing down on fast-food.

Ar žinote, kad aš dabar mėgstu prisiminti ir tam tikru laiku aplankyti tas vietas, kur kitados esu buvęs saviškai laimingas, mėgstu kurti savąją dabartį pagal tai, kas yra nebegrįžtamai praėję, ir dažnai slampinėju kaip šešėlis be reikalo ir be tikslo, nuliūdęs ir nusiminęs, Peterburgo užkampiais bei gatvėmis. Ir vis kokie atsiminimai! Pavyzdžiui, prisi­meni, kad štai čia lygiai prieš metus, lygiai tuo pačiu laiku, tą pačią valandą, šituo pačiu šaligatviu taip pat vaikštinėjai vienišas, taip pat nusiminęs kaip ir dabar! Ir prisimeni, kad ir tuomet svajonės buvo liūdnos, ir nors ir pirma buvo ne geriau, bet vis tartum jauti, kad gal ir lengviau, ir ramiau buvo gyventi, kad nebuvo tų sun­ kių minčių, kurios dabar prikibo prie manęs; kad nebu­ vo sąžinės graužimo, niūraus, rūškano graužimo, kuris dabar nei dieną, nei naktį neduoda ramybės. Ir klausi save: kurgi tavo svajonės? Ir linguoji galvą, sakai: kaip greitai bėga metai! Ir vėl klausi save: o ką gi tu nu­ veikei per tuos savo metus? kur palaidojai savo gražiau­siąjį laiką? Gyvenai tu ar ne? Žiūrėk, sakai sau, žiūrėk, kaip pasaulyje darosi šalta. Dar praeis keleri metai, ir po jų ateis niūri vienatvė, atslinks kretanti senatvė su lazda, o po jų maudulys ir nusiminimas. Nublanks tavo fantastinis pasaulis, sustings, nuvys tavo svajonės ir nu­ byrės kaip geltoni lapai nuo medžių... O Nastenka! Juk bus liūdna likti vienam, visiškai vienam, ir netgi netu­ rėti ko gailėtis—nieko, ničnieko... nes viskas, ko ne­ tekai, visa tai, viskas buvo niekis, kvailas, tuščias nulis, buvo vien tik svaja!

Doubt isn't weakness in faith, mother, it's wisdom in spite of it.

Books on a battlefield. Fucking rote mages.

The net is my soulmate.

I'm conjuring up a little fuck you." -Hannah Rat Queens Vol 1

I love moments in singing and praising God that are so authentic you literally forget there’s anyone else in the room. That’s called ministering to the Lord! Third,

We have become a culture that is great at hearing but awful at listening. One

We need to make sure we’re hearing the right parts and muting the voices that aren’t bringing life. We need to tune in to God’s voice and tune out the chaos that so often distracts us from living devoted lives. When we hear His voice, we’ll know how to speak, and sing, His truth. For

You see, the moment we think we have things figured out is usually the same moment when God will prove to us that we don’t.

God wants to see collaboration instead of competition when it comes to His church.

If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always be what you’ve always been.

The One who sees all and knows all isn’t interested in an act. He wants to see us truly changed, from the inside out. And when you have real transformation, there’s no need to act. Before

Lord, help us live authentic lives of worship that would show this world a better way of living.

If you want to have God’s favor in your life, walk humbly. If you want God on your side, walk humbly. As followers of Jesus, there are so many things that we can think we’re doing for God and for His glory, but in reality we are puffing ourselves up in pride and doing things for our own accolades. When praise says “for His glory,” pride says “for my glory.” Every

Until we find complete affirmation in who God says we are in Christ Jesus, we’ll never truly walk in the identity He’s given us.

Don't ruin the moment by saying something stupid. There's elegance in things left unsaid.

God moves in spite of us, and not because of us. So

Cowering, the barkeep gave him a small smile, and then Magnus left without waiting for a reply. Though he walked a swerving line, Magnus managed to make it back to the palace without too much delay. It wasn’t until he had the nearest gate in sight that he realized he hadn’t taken any guards with him when he’d left the palace grounds. “Don’t need them,” he grumbled. “Anyone who dares to cross the Prince of Blood will regret it.” As he neared the palace gates, he spotted Lord Kurtis, conversing with a man in a black cloak. Kurtis glanced at him, and in response Magnus laughed and made a rude gesture, then carried on right past him. Stupid arse. To think, Magnus’s childhood memories had caused him to consider Kurtis a true threat all this time. From

She had it coming. No one calls my friends cunts but me.

Our constitution is a living document, not only to perfect our freedoms and our rights but also to help us realize our potential. What makes us free is not the absence of rules but the presence of justice.

Eli noticed that he had embarrassed me, chuckling softly at my reaction to his comment. And I unexpectedly discovered I had a new favorite sound.

The whole exercise is like trying to pick up a cow patty by the clean end.

she looks like she fell out the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

She’s so dumb, if you put her brains into a bumblebee, it’d fly backwards.

You’re so ugly, your cooties gotta close their eyes,

Fuck a duck. My give-a-shitter just broke. I don’t care about being clever anymore;

Nothing dries as quick as a tear.

We need to make sure there’s a healthy balance of songs that honor God and minister to Him as well as songs that declare to the church who we are in Christ. Based

The world doesn’t need more great messages, more great bands, or even more great church services. We need more of God’s presence.

To be an authentic leader, you need to have a vision that directs the course of your leadership.

My point is this: you don’t want to put on an act, prepare your heart, and come ready to bring an offering that you think is worthy to give a King. God’s not looking for a cheap replication—He’s looking for the real thing. He wants the Abel offering, not the Cain leftovers.

That was Cappa's great talent: knowing everyone's weakness.

He looked at them the way the street chess players looked at their pieces, assessing which could be sacrificed and which had to be protected, endlessly running through the permutations of power.

Jis kruopščiai ištyrė tarybinio piliečio kelią nuo vaikų darželio ligi universiteto baigimo ir matematiškai tiksliai įrodė, kad visur ir visada mokoma vien ryti gatavus teiginius, negyvus įvaizdžius ir bedvases konstrukcijas. Niekur nemokoma mąstyti. Nemokoma pačiam kurti įvaizdžius, rasti teiginius, dėlioti logines schemas. Nemokama ieškoti tiesos, nemokoma abejoti. O baisiausia - nemokoma moralės ir žmogiškumo pagrindų. Žodžiu, auginami mėgdžiotojai, kalbančios papūgos, bedvasiai automatai - tik ne Homo sapiens. Martynas visad be galo gerbė sąvoką Homo sapiens. Antrojoje savo opuso dalyje pažėrė puokštę klaikiausių pavyzdžių - nuo debiliškų mokymo programų ligi jaunų žmogžudžių postringavimų: šie būdavo nužudę šiaip sau - netgi ne iš pykčio, ne dėl kokių juodų instinktų, vien dėl to, kad nė nesuvokė paprasčiausių žmogaus moralės pradų.
