Asking Quotes

I started off believing all men were equal. I now know that’s the most unlikely thing ever to have been, because millions of years have passed over evolution, people have scattered across the face of this earth, been isolated from each other, developed independently, had different intermixtures between races, peoples, climates, soils... I didn’t start off with that knowledge. But by observation, reading, watching, arguing, asking, that is the conclusion I’ve come to Picture Quote #1

I stopped beating up on myself. I stopped asking myself why I didn’t sell this number of records, why I don’t have corporate sponsorship. I just don’t buy into any of that anymore Picture Quote #1

Be careful of someone who starts asking a lot of questions about you. Start asking a lot of questions about them. Turn it around Picture Quote #1

I’d rather strive for the kind of interview where instead of me asking to introduce myself to society, society asks me to introduce myself to society Picture Quote #1

You get hit the hardest when trying to run or hide from a problem. Like the defense on a football field, putting all focus on evading only one defender is asking to be blindsided Picture Quote #1

The marvelous thing about a good question is that it shapes our identity as much by the asking as it does by the answering Picture Quote #1

There is a strange idea aboard, held by all monetary cranks, that credit is something a banker gives to a man. Credit, on the contrary, is something a man already has. He has it, perhaps, because he already has marketable assets of a greater cash value than the loan for which he is asking. Or he has it because his character and past record have earned it. He brings it into the bank with him. That is why the banker makes him the loan Picture Quote #1

May I be given the appropriate difficulties so that my heart can truly open with compassion. Imagine asking for that Picture Quote #1

You don’t buy all the clothes in the market. You choose slowly and carefully, asking the prices for each before buying. The same way you choose your friends, by looking into their lives carefully, before taking any as a companion, then dropping those that are not relevant Picture Quote #1

If you have competence, you know the edge. It wouldnt be a competence if you didn’t know where the boundaries lie. Asking whether youve passed the boundary is a question that almost answers itself Picture Quote #1

Just got off the phone with my health care provider asking them to explain why my premium jumped up. No good answer! Picture Quote #1

The voice of wisdom is inherent within us and willing to guide us when we stop to listen. Of course, there are times when we feel we’ve been still as stone, and the still, small voice is still too quiet to hear. When this happens, the challenge is to practice quieting your mind anyway. Stopping and asking, quieting and listening, trusting and waiting. Waiting is difficult but worth the effort because a quiet, uncluttered mind is a natural antenna for whispers of wisdom from within Picture Quote #1

I feel that’s one of the central questions of fantasy. What did we lose when we entered the 20th and 21st century, and how can we mourn what we lost, and what can we replace it with? We’re still asking those questions in an urgent way Picture Quote #1

We are asking a really fundamental question whether thought can ever be creative. If thought is not the ground of creation then what is creation? Is love the only factor that is creative? Picture Quote #1

If you’re asking whether I intentionally mess up my hair, no, I don’t. And certain things, like my freckles, they’re just there. I don’t do anything consciously. I suppose I could get contact lenses. I suppose I could comb my hair more often Picture Quote #1

There’s a proud modesty in merit; averse from asking, and resolved to pay ten times the gifts it asks Picture Quote #1

The point of asking questions is to find true answers; the point of measuring is to measure accurately; the point of making maps is to find your way to your destination... In short, the goal of truth goes without saying, in every human culture Picture Quote #1

I hate repetition, I really do. It’s like asking a painter to paint the same picture every day of his life Picture Quote #1

People have been asking me for a couple of years when I am going to retire, and I think that now is the right time Picture Quote #1

Artists want to sell their work, sure. But they aren’t out there asking questions about what people want and what they don’t want, now are they? Picture Quote #1

The beauty and charm of the wilderness are his for the asking, for the edges of the wilderness lie close beside the beaten roads of the present travel Picture Quote #1

Get a sales tax, small on necessities and large on luxuries; then a stiff inheritance tax on the fellow that saves and don’t spend. That will get him either way. A tax paid on the day you buy is not as tough as asking you for it the next year when you are broke Picture Quote #1

If you want access to the files of valuable information in a computer, you must understand how to retrieve the data by asking for it with the proper commands. Likewise, what enables you to get anything you want from your own personal databanks is the commanding power of asking questions Picture Quote #1

There’s the moon asking to stay long enough for the clouds to fly me away Picture Quote #1

Away with the one who is always seeking, for he never finds anything; for he is seeking where nothing can be found. Away with the one who is always knocking, for he knocks where there is no one to open; away with the one who is always asking, for he asks of one who does not hear Picture Quote #1

I don’t think escaping is necessarily a problem, but we can get addicted to almost anything. If you’re craving being in this other reality and you don’t want to participate in your own reality, those are the times we have to start asking ourselves difficult questions Picture Quote #1

So you’re stuck. Every time your madman starts to write, your judge pounces on him... So start by promising your judge that you’ll get around to asking his opinion, but not now. And then let the madman energy flow... Save details for the judge Picture Quote #1

Over time, you’ll find that the more you trust your intuition and allow it to set your direction, the more you build that trust. Develop a habit of continually checking in with your intuition by asking yourself: Does this feel right to me? Picture Quote #1

While many conclusions are drawn... the process of asking questions is more important than the answers... an ongoing process of discovery Picture Quote #1

It is when you are asking about something that you realize you yourself have survived it, and so you must carry it, or fashion it into a thing that carries itself Picture Quote #1
