He alone rated himself beyond diamonds and rubies. Diamonds and rubies are gone, spread out on the deck to be washed away by a bucket of sea-water, and he does not even know that the diamonds and rubies are gone.

You can be so much in a room that the world outside turns to water. You’ve got the heater blowing out burnt air, but you still don’t get warm. Your ankles are singed, but your head’s in a bucket of ice. Time drips like a stalactite. The water for the coffee boils away in a tree of steam.

I write about how in Midland, the mayor instituted water conservation measures like restrictions on car washing. He made a point though that they were only “suggestions” and not government telling people what to do. But then his constituents got very ticked off at the sight of their neighbors breaking the rules and demanded that they be made into actual laws with penalties.

Certainly people in empty places feel they have the right to do what they want to their property and don’t necessarily see the effect of their pollution or pesticides on others. But Texans have an appreciation for water problems and are very aware of the droughts.

I’d like to go to Africa, away from water, away from what’s normal for us. When you put yourself in those places your life looks so far away. It makes a big impact.

In faith I hear a whisper in the air as it sweeps:
secrets sparkling from the waters unto the shore;
but the wind does not stir upon the deeps,
the poets’ mandolas play no more.

Water, is taught by thirst. Land – by the Oceans passed. Transport – by throe – Peace – by its battles told – Love, by Memorial Mold – Birds, by the Snow.

If all of this, all the life of a stream of water, can be nothing but a pile of atoms, how much more is possible?

We still think of air as free. But clean air is not free, and neither is clean water. The price tag on pollution control is high. Through our years of past carelessness we incurred a debt to nature, and now that debt is being called.

It’s important to stay hydrated – first thing I do in the morning is stretch and drink water.

Time flows away like the water in the river.

Controlling speech and breath, and diving deep within oneself – like one who, to find a thing that has fallen into water, dives deep down – one must seek out the source whence the aspiring ego springs.

Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are God. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are God

Water and our necessary food are the only things that wise men must fight for.

Not hammer-strokes, but dance of the water, sings the pebbles into perfection.

You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water

The wave is not the water. The water merely told us about the wave moving by.

You gotta water your plants. Nobody can water them for you.

As the water manifests the brightness of the moon, the moon manifests the clarity of the water

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it.

Just be ordinary and nothing special. Eat your food, move your bowels, pass water, and when you’re tired, go and lie down. The ignorant will laugh at me, but the wise will understand

When one has reached maturity in the art, one will have a formless form. It is like ice dissolving in water

In order to taste my cup of water you must first empty your cup

If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water.

Don’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim

And out of it, as Wind along the Waste,
I know not whither, willy-nilly blowing.

Water is the driver of nature.
