Confined Quotes

“Is happiness a sort of blissful state of mind or just a kind of surreal propensity? It may be hard to recognize its very nature, if we remain guilelessly confined in a state of woeful unawareness or in a no-man’s-land of emotions. In their dogged and obstinate quest for the zenith of happiness, many forget to take pleasure in the small things of everyday and, thus, become disgruntled and depressed instead, which leads them to a mire of gloom. ("C’est quand le bonheur “)”
― Erik Pevernagie

“God has placed Himself squarely within the confines of my confines so that within my reach there lays the very thing that I need to break me out of those confines. Therefore, if I remain confined, it may be because I don’t understand that I’m confined. And if I don’t understand that I’m confined, I can be certain that I don’t understand my need for God. And that is likely the greatest confinement of all.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“Generally, ‘confinement’ is not bad. It is natural to be confined. For example, we are confined to this world. When we are inside homes, we are confined; when we are outside, we are still confined to this planet called, ‘earth’. Though the criminals feel that confinement is bad for them, it is, actually, good for the common people because they are safe from the criminals!”
― Md. Ziaul Haque

“A big person who is allowed to "breath" and having a lower level of thinking, will perform better than a very bright (small) person who is not allowed the same freedom.

“My sorrow in the nights of past I left,
all the sadness from your lack, at rest,
since you’re with me, lacking, the world is aglow,
back at folk advice I throw;
if I took advice, I’d about you forget,
I’d think of another, myself loose I’d let,
yet I wouldn’t always remain just this calm,
confined in myself, I’d hold me in my palm…”
