Answers Quotes

Man does not limit himself to seeing; he thinks and insists on learning the meaning of phenomena whose existence has been revealed to him by observation. So he reasons, compares facts, puts questions to them, and by the answers which he extracts, tests one by another. This sort of control, by means of reasoning and facts, is what constitutes experiment, properly speaking; and it is the only process that we have for teaching ourselves about the nature of things outside us Picture Quote #1

I cannot expect even my own art to provide all of the answers, only to hope it keeps asking the right questions Picture Quote #1

Train yourselves. Don’t wait to be fed knowledge out of a book. Get out and seek it. Make explorations. Do your own research work. Train your hands and your mind. Become curious. Invent your own problems and solve them. You can see things going on all about you. Inquire into them. Seek out answers to your own questions. There are many phenomena going on in nature the explanation of which cannot be found in books. Find out why these phenomena take place. Information a boy gets by himself is enormously more valuable than that which is taught to him in school Picture Quote #1

Teachers who offer you the ultimate answers do not possess the ultimate answers, for if they did, they would know that the ultimate answers cannot be given, they can only be received Picture Quote #1

There are three answers to prayer: yes, no, and wait a while. It must be recognized that no is an answer Picture Quote #1

I started philosophy looking for answers. But along the way I came to prize exploring the questions. Progress in philosophy consists, I think, in a clearer delineation of the conceptual options, not in reaching determinate conclusions Picture Quote #1

The game was that of continually inventing a possible world, or a piece of a possible world, and then of comparing it with the real world... a race without end... What mattered more than the answers were the questions... For me, this world of questions and the provisional, this chase after an answer that was always put off to the next day, all that was euphoric. I lived in the future... I had turned my anxiety into my profession Picture Quote #1

The most revolutionary thing anybody can do is to raise good, honest and generous children who will question the answers of people who say the answer is violence. That’s what the schools should be doing Picture Quote #1

Governments do not have the answers. Indeed quite the reversal. A lot of times they not only do not have the answers, they themselves are the problem. If we are committed to helping our world’s children, then we must begin to create solutions from the bottom up Picture Quote #1

It is far wiser to ask for a question than an answer. When you think you have all the answers, it simply means you have run out of questions Picture Quote #1

A piece of art is never a finished work. It answers a question which has been asked, and asks a new question Picture Quote #1

The person with the biggest dreams is more powerful than the person with all the answers Picture Quote #1

I ask a million questions, and I insist on having answers. I think that is what we have to do. I have to know what the director wants. Some are very much in their head, and I need to force it out of them. I just can’t play around for eight hours and see if something happens Picture Quote #1

Books have always been living things to me. Some of my encounters with new authors have changed my life a little. When I have been perplexed, looking for something I could not define to myself, a certain book has turned up, approached me as a friend would. And between it’s cover carried the questions and the answers I was looking for Picture Quote #1

So when I cover the president, I try to remember two things: First, if you don’t ask, you don’t find out; and second, the questions don’t do the damage. Only the answers do Picture Quote #1

I feel that life is a series of very interesting questions, and very poor answers. But I myself am willing to settle for the questions. If the questions are interesting, I feel I evoke them in what I do. I feel that should be good enough for everyone else Picture Quote #1

A smart person is not one that knows the answers, but one who knows where to find them Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know the answers, but I could feel that the things that gave life meaning came from a place within and from the nurturing of values like tolerance, charity, and community Picture Quote #1

I remain a simple man who has more questions than answers. Please join me as I seek to turn that tide Picture Quote #1

Because you see darling, darling, there are no false questions. All questions in life are true questions. Answers may be false, but questions cannot be false. Sure,they can be dumb, they can be stupid, but never false Picture Quote #1

Surely only boring people went in for conversations consisting of questions and answers. The art of true conversation consisted in the play of minds Picture Quote #1

If the whole universe can be found in our own body and mind, this is where we need to make our inquires. We all have the answers within ourselves, we just have not got in touch with them yet. The potential of finding the truth within requires faith in ourselves Picture Quote #1

I try to make art which celebrates doubt and uncertainty. Which provokes answers but doesn’t give them. Which withholds absolute meaning by incorporating parasite meanings. Which suspends meaning while perpetually dispatching you toward interpretation, urging you beyond dogmatism, beyond doctrine, beyond ideology, beyond authority Picture Quote #1

Our instinct as human beings is to provide answers, to ease tension. As writers our job is the opposite, to create tension and not dispel it immediately Picture Quote #1

I’ve always said, just go ask my teammates if you want to know about me. Go ask the guys that I’ve played with. Don’t ask or get information about me from people who are not in the locker room or not around me all of the time. Then you’ll get legit answers Picture Quote #1

Even in high school, a rule that permits only one point of view to be expressed is less likely to produce correct answers than the open discussion of countervailing views Picture Quote #1

Any school for free citizens must begin by teaching distrust, not trust. It must teach questioning, not acceptance of stock answers Picture Quote #1

I live in the spirit of prayer. I pray as I walk about, when I lie down and when I rise up. And the answers are always coming Picture Quote #1

We do not grow by knowing all of the answers, but rather by living with the questions Picture Quote #1

It is not so important to have all the answers as to be hungry for them Picture Quote #1
