Able Quotes

Making money ain’t nothing exciting to me. You might be able to buy a little better booze than the wino on the corner. But you get sick just like the next cat and when you die you’re just as graveyard dead as he is Picture Quote #1

Don’t even trust that you are able to unify what everyone is thinking; it is impossible Picture Quote #1

If I have a right to a job, education, health care or a house, then I must be able to specify the person or persons who owe me any or all of these things Picture Quote #1

The world is dyed with the color of blood. It will never be able to go back to the way it was before Picture Quote #1

At the piano, I’m able to communicate in a way that is very intimate and direct. My approach at music is a bit like talking to a friend. You don’t have to be very complicated when you speak. If you say what’s in your heart, it’s usually very simple Picture Quote #1

I would love for people to be able to think of me as a guy who stood up for what he believed in and helped make a difference for the vets Picture Quote #1

Let me tell you how to love all equally. Do not demand anything of those you love. If you make demands, some will give you more and some less. In that case you will love more those who give you more and less those who give you less. Thus your love will not be the same for all. You will not be able to love all impartially Picture Quote #1

The strong is not the one who can put on the blades at a glance, and the one who is able to raise a smile from his knees! Picture Quote #1

Herein lies the real value of education. Advanced education may or may not make men and women more efficient; but it enriches personality, increases the wealth of the mind, and hence brings happiness. It is the finest insurance against old age, against the growth of physical disability, against the lack and loss of animal delights. How essential it is, then, in youth to acquire some intellectual or artistic tastes, in order to furnish the mind, to be able to live inside a mind with attractive and interesting pictures on the walls Picture Quote #1

The draw by stalemate looks like a spot of discontinuity in the otherwise harmonious universe of values. To save a game by letting yourself be so completely humiliated as not being able to make a move looks rather undeserved Picture Quote #1

Contrary to what some parents might believe or hope for, children are not born a blank slate. Rather, they come into the world with predetermined abilities, proclivities and temperaments that nurturing parents may be able to foster or modify, but can rarely reverse Picture Quote #1

Positive people are able to maintain a broader perspective and see the big picture which helps them identify solutions where as negative people maintain a narrower perspective and tend to focus on problems Picture Quote #1

It’s been really slow obviously, but I’m not worried about that. I feel like from where I was a couple months ago, things are a lot better. Just being able to skate and stuff was encouraging. Hopefully the next step doesn’t have any hurdles Picture Quote #1

I think it was a desire to be able to find my own voice. I think that was the big urge within me Picture Quote #1

You can throw away the privilege of acting, but that would be such a shame. The tribe has elected you to tell its story. You are the shaman/healer, that’s what the storyteller is, and I think it’s important for actors to appreciate that. Too often actors think it’s all about them, when in reality it’s all about the audience being able to recognize themselves in you. The more you pull away from the public, the less power you have on screen Picture Quote #1

Do what you will while you’re able, find what it is that you seek Picture Quote #1

Whoever is able to write a book and does not, it is as if he has lost a child Picture Quote #1

An interior designer must be able to clarify his intent keeping ever in mind that decorating is not a look, it’s a point of view Picture Quote #1

Some cynical people think that every activity must revolve around the mighty dollar, and that anyone saying otherwise is just attempting to delude the public. I will probably never be able to convice them that that isn’t always the case, but I do have the satisfaction of knowing that I live in a less dingy world than they do Picture Quote #1

It hurts because you want to try to get out there and help the team win, and I wasn’t able to do that. Injuries are part of the game, but I’m over that now, hopefully Picture Quote #1

Often you will find the opposite situation. The author seems to have interesting ideas, but he is not able to illustrate them with decent examples. If a grandmaster is commenting on one of his own games, then there is usually not any problem: his general thoughts are closely tied up with what is happening on the board. But as soon as he starts writing an article or book on a different theme the difficulties begin, as he may not have suitable material to hand Picture Quote #1

Well, I wanted to be a philosopher, which is the idlest occupation in the world. I wanted to be involved in abstract thought, but because of various problems with the authorities I wasn’t able to pull that one off. A lifetime of idleness in academia would have really suited me. So I was thrown out, as it were. Other than that, there seemed no possible idle occupations, so writing... although writing isn’t exactly idleness. There’s an enormous tension between indolence and languor Picture Quote #1

We commonly think of freedom as the ability to define alternatives and choose between them. The creative mind exceeds this liberty in being able to redefine itself and reality at large, generating whole new sets of alternatives Picture Quote #1

The reflections and histories of men and women throughout the world are contained in books... America’s greatness is not only recorded in books, but it is also dependent upon each and every citizen being able to utilize public libraries Picture Quote #1

I do feel, in my dreamings and yearnings, so undiscovered by those who are able to help me Picture Quote #1
