Answers Quotes

To be a deep listener, one of the first things we have to do is give up the need and the desire to give advice. Knowing answers does not require stating them; there are times when offering answers is not helpful, as when a person is in the middle of their own learning process Picture Quote #1

I don’t think writers should write about answers. I think writers should write about questions Picture Quote #1

Ask how you’d live your life differently if you knew you were going to die soon, then ask yourself who those people you admire are and why you admire them, and then ask yourself what was the most fun time in your life. The answers to these questions, when seen, heard, and felt, provide us with an open doorway into our mission, our destiny, our purpose Picture Quote #1

The answers to our questions are everywhere; we just need to change the lens with which we see the world Picture Quote #1

It’s not only for unanswered questions that we seek knowledge but also for the examination of unquestioned answers Picture Quote #1

I don’t trust the answers or the people who give me the answers. I believe in dirt and bone and flowers and fresh pasta and salsa cruda and red wine. I don’t believe in white wine; I insist on color Picture Quote #1

The answers are what they are. Just because you don’t like them doesn’t mean they aren’t true Picture Quote #1

Trying to justify a world we don’t hold all the answers to is what bedevils the best of us. Sometimes it’s better just to accept that things are as we see them Picture Quote #1

The lack of resources is no longer an excuse not to act. The idea that action should only be taken after all the answers and the resources have been found is a sure recipe for paralysis. The planning of a city is a process that allows for corrections; it is supremely arrogant to believe that planning can be done only after every possible variable has been controlled Picture Quote #1

Science advances through tentative answers to a series of more and more subtle questions which reach deeper and deeper into the essence of natural phenomena Picture Quote #1

At age fourteen I was asking questions. When the answers failed to satisfy me, I searched elsewhere for different answers and found wisdom in atheism. And I am far from alone in that experience Picture Quote #1

We shouldn’t get hung up on the questions we can’t answer because life, by definition, is confusing. We’re never going to have all the answers. Never. We should focus on the questions we can answer and make peace with the ones we can’t Picture Quote #1

What could be more interesting than thinking of mysterious happenings, finding the answers to intriguing questions, and making up new worlds? Picture Quote #1

The more I sought truth uncorrupted by years of religious history, the more I kept finding answers I didn’t want to find. Emotionally, it would have been easiest for me to just hold on to what I grew up believing, but mentally that wasn’t an option anymore Picture Quote #1

And it’s always better, isn’t it, when you discover answers on your own? Picture Quote #1

If I could start over today, I would choose literature again. If the answers exist in the world or in the universe, I still think that’s where we’re going to find them Picture Quote #1

Empathy isn’t just listening, it’s asking the questions whose answers need to be listened to. Empathy requires inquiry as much as imagination. Empathy requires knowing you know nothing. Empathy means acknowledging a horizon of context that extends perpetually beyond what you can see Picture Quote #1

In the seed and the soil, we find the answers to every one of the crises we face. The crises of violence and war. The crises of hunger and disease. The crisis of the destruction of democracy Picture Quote #1

The trouble with asking questions is you sometimes get answers you don’t wanna hear Picture Quote #1

Can we afford clean water? Can we afford rivers and lakes and streams and oceans which continue to make possible life on this planet? Can we afford life itself? Those questions were never asked as we destroyed the waters of our nation, and they deserve no answers as we finally move to restore and renew them. These questions answer themselves Picture Quote #1

I think animal testing is a terrible idea; they get all nervous and give the wrong answers Picture Quote #1

We’re terrified of not having the answers, and we would sometimes rather assert an incorrect answer than make our peace with the fact that we really don’t know Picture Quote #1

If we respect students abilities to define their own experiences, to generate their own hypotheses, and to discover new ways of categorizing the world, we might not be so quick to evaluate the adequacy of their answers. We might, instead, begin listening to their questions. Out of the questions of students come some of the most creative ideas and discoveries Picture Quote #1

Our ego seeks to understand everything. It wants all the answers. Part of what destroys the ego and connects us with the light is doing things that absolutely don’t make any sense. If we want something beyond logic, like a miracle, we have to do something that is beyond logic Picture Quote #1

We’re too smart to know there aren’t easy answers. But we’re not dumb enough to accept that there aren’t better answers Picture Quote #1

Inside any important philanthropy meeting, you witness heads of state meeting with investment managers and corporate leaders. All are searching for answers with their right hand to problems that others in the room have created with their left Picture Quote #1

Clear content, simple navigation and answers to customer questions have the biggest impact on business value. Advanced technology matters much less Picture Quote #1

The fatal pedagogical error is to throw answers like stones at the heads of those who have not yet asked the questions Picture Quote #1

As a filmmaker, I ask questions but don’t have answers. Moviemaking is a philosophical exploration. I invite the audience to come on the journey and discover what they think and feel Picture Quote #1

It is a funny thing, but when I am making music, all the answers I seek for in life seem to be there, in the music. Or rather, I should say, when I am making music, there are no questions and no need for answers Picture Quote #1
