The commandment 'Thou shalt not kill' does not say it's O.K. to kill some people and not others.
We don't need lists of rights and wrongs, tables of do's and don'ts: we need books, time, and silence. Thou shalt not is soon forgotten, but Once upon a time lasts forever.
Teach thy tongue to say 'I do not know', and thou shalt progress.
The stars shall fade away, the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years, But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth, Unhurt amidst the wars of elements, The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds.
I believe that in this new world that we live in, we often have a responsibility, you know, to actually go beyond the thou shalt nots - that is, the not harming others - and say we can help others and we should be helping others.
Is there not an art, a music, and a stream of words that shalt be life, the acknowledged voice of life?
Every time the good giants try to cut back on salt, sugar, fat calories, inevitably Wall Street raises its hand and is looking at the sales figures and the revenue and saying, 'Thou shalt not result in any loss of profit.' There's huge continuing pressure on the food companies.
I have ten commandments. The first nine are, thou shalt not bore. The tenth is, thou shalt have right of final cut.
If we are to keep democracy, there must be a commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice.
Thou shalt free thyself from convention, from everyday morality.
