Goliath Quotes
Our image has undergone change from David fighting Goliath to being Goliath.
Yitzhak Shamir
I took my power in my hand And went against the world; 'T was not so much as David had, But I was twice as bold.I aimed my pebble, but myself Was all the one that fell. Was it Goliath was too large, Or only I too small?
Emily Dickinson
He thinks Goliath can end the war," Alek managed at last. "The man wants peace!" "As do we all," Count Volger said. "But there are many ways to end a war. Some are more peaceful than others.
Scott Westerfeld
Maybe you don't just have one Goliath. Maybe you have his whole family!
Joyce Meyer
It's gone on my whole life, this David and Goliath syndrome that a lot of these smaller guys always have. They think the only reason I've ever had any success in my career is because of my physical size. And you know what? If that's the case, so be it. I really don't care. Because I have that size.
Kevin Nash
What has been happening more lately - of course, I also put in my bio, I say I do the voice of Goliath, but some people go - you know, I say something, and it's a funny thing when you work in this business, people will talk out loud in front of you like you're not there.
Keith David
I love an underdog. No, I don't necessarily mean the cartoon. I mean like David, as in Goliath, or the Bears, as in The Bad News Bears.
Nancy Lublin
The Dutch example shows that when people overcome their fear, David can defeat Goliath. For decades, the multicultural elite suppressed dissent by denouncing as racists anyone who questioned their pro-Islam, pro-mass immigration dogma. But finally, after silently watching for years the immense damage done to our nation by the elite's policies, the Dutch people had enough. In the face of all the threats and intimidation levelled against my supporters, enough people had the courage to vote for the PW that we fundamentally altered our country's politics. All it takes is courage.
Geert Wilders
The next picture is a Goliath with four arms, reading a book, lofting a 1000-pound dumbbell, aiming a pistol at a target, painting a picture. The enemy can do everything. "He's a giant, seven feet tall with four arms, each with two biceps. Each arm can, of course, be used simultaneously."
Herman Kahn
My beliefs are clearly that of a hardened skeptic [...] I use the term "occult" to refer to any of all of these subjects. The reader is forewarned that The Skeptics Dictionary does not try to present a balanced account of occult subjects. If anything, this book is a Davidian counterbalance to the Goliath of occult literature. I hope that an occasional missile hits its mark...
Robert Todd Carroll
Information is the oxygen of the modern age. It seeps through the walls topped by barbed wire, it wafts across the electrified borders. ... The Goliath of totalitarianism will be brought down by the David of the microchip.
Ronald Reagan
It's alright to be Goliath but always act like David.
Phil Knight
The Bible just said ‘Thou shalt not kill', then told hundreds of stories of people killing each other and becoming heroes, like David with Goliath.
John Marsden
The water is alive. It is alive. If we could get a mask and fins and drop down off these docks, we'd see snook and redfish and probably goliath grouper. And it's an amazing world unto itself and a very thin demarcation between one world and the other. You know, the distance of the water surface.
Randy Wayne White
Goliath was a champion, a monster who had never been beaten, and then this young guy, David, came forward, a child who believed in God and did it.
Tyson Fury
But I slew Goliath with the sling and stone, It's not my time to go.
Aaron Weiss
Nobody roots for Goliath.
Wilt Chamberlain
If you're a twofisted, spineless progressive (a mighty fashionable stance nowadays) Offissa Pupp, who forcefully asserts the will of socalled society, becomes a cosmic angel; while Ignatz Mouse, who forcefully defies society's socalled will by asserting his authentic own, becomes a demon of anarchy and a fiend of chaos. But if-whisper it-you're a 100% hidebound reactionary, the foot's in the other shoe. Ignatz Mouse then stands forth as a hero, pluckily struggling to keep the flag of free will flying; while Offissa Pupp assumes the monstrous mien of a Goliath, satanically bullying a tiny but indomitable David. Well, let's flip the coin-so: and lo! Offissa Pupp comes up. That makes Ignatz Mouse "tails."
E. E. Cummings
A Navajo woman said to me, "In our old mythologies and stories, they talked of monster slayers.” She says we need a new generation of monster slayers. I think that's such a powerful analogy, and it's so true. It's a David and Goliath moment, and we've got to hang in there because they are weakening...
Winona LaDuke
...We're still perceived as being Goliath.
John Forbes Nash
