Authority Quotes

Even when you err, it is a thousand times better to err out of conviction than to hide your true opinion to respect some authority Picture Quote #1

We want character but without unyielding conviction; we want strong morality but without the emotional burden of guilt or shame; we want virtue but without particular moral justifications that invariably offend; we want good without having to name evil; we want decency without the authority to insist upon it; we want more community without any limitations to personal freedom. In short, we want what we cannot possibly have on the terms that we want it Picture Quote #1

You must know everything well before you can know what to discard. You must cover pages with material you will not finally put into the book. That doesn’t mean you don’t use it. It is still there, must be there, an invisible foundation which gives authority to the story. The planning done on setting is never wasted. Nothing is ever wasted. If it has been thought through and written, it is still there, in every word which does not mention it Picture Quote #1

One of the greatest things in life is that no one has the authority to tell you what you want to be. You’re the one who’ll decide what you want to be Picture Quote #1

There is such an equality among them that the officers have no authority. The privates are all generals, but not soldiers Picture Quote #1

The union of the family lies in love; and love is the only reconciliation of authority and liberty Picture Quote #1

There’s a lot of ignorance in our business... Everybody’s an authority. To have your own vision is rewarding Picture Quote #1

One of the greatest things you have in life is that no one has the authority to tell you what you want to be. You’re the one who’ll decide what you want to be. Respect yourself and respect the integrity of others as well. The greatest thing you have is your self image, a positive opinion of yourself. You must never let anyone take it from you Picture Quote #1

Science is very vibrant. There are always new observations to be found. And it’s all in the interest in challenging the authority that came before you. That’s consistent with the punk rock ethos that suggests that you should not take what people say at face value Picture Quote #1

Civilization means, above all, an unwillingness to inflict unnecessary pain... those of us who heedlessly accept the commands of authority cannot yet claim to be civilized men Picture Quote #1

Clothe yourself in your authority. You speak not only as yourself or for yourself. You will speak and act with the courage and endurance that has been yours through the long, beautiful aeons of your life story Picture Quote #1

There is no power or authority without responsibility, and he who accepts the one cannot escape or evade the other Picture Quote #1

While the authority of the doctor or plumber is never questioned, everyone deems himself a good judge and an adequate arbiter of what a work of art should be and how it should be done Picture Quote #1

The church has no authority to preach of inclusivity if we fear altering the look of our church by bringing in the poor Picture Quote #1

It’s downright undignified how many blazers I’ve bought over the years. And will continue to buy. They immediately give shape and add authority. With the perfect blazer, anything is possible Picture Quote #1

If you see someone taking responsibility, give that person authority. If you see someone looking for authority, watch out! Picture Quote #1

Nay, all laws must fall, human societies that subsist by them be dissolved, and all innocent persons be exposed to the violence of the most wicked, if men might not justly defend themselves against injustice by their own natural right, when the ways prescribed by publick authority cannot be taken Picture Quote #1

Dissent... is a right essential to any concept of the dignity and freedom of the individual; it is essential to the search for truth in a world wherein no authority is infallible Picture Quote #1

There are in fact four very significant stumblingblocks in the way of grasping the truth, which hinder every man however learned, and scarcely allow anyone to win a clear title to wisdom, namely, the example of weak and unworthy authority, longstanding custom, the feeling of the ignorant crowd, and the hiding of our own ignorance while making a display of our apparent knowledge Picture Quote #1

The power of authority is never more subtle and effective than when it produces a psychological atmosphere or climate favorable to the life of certain modes of belief, unfavorable, and even fatal, to the life of others Picture Quote #1

Men, if you are in a position of power or authority, please respectfully continue to mentor and work with talented individuals and those with promise, regardless if they are men or women Picture Quote #1

The only parental authority I had was the studio. When I was a star, there was always somebody with me, to guard me. I was not allowed to be photographed with a cigarette, a drink, a cup of coffee or even a glass of water because someone might think it was liquor. When I left the studio I was already married and had two children, but I felt as sad as a child leaving home for the first time Picture Quote #1

I have taken your advice, and the names used are anode cathode anions cations and ions; the last I shall have but little occasion for. I had some hot objections made to them here and found myself very much in the condition of the man with his son and ass who tried to please every body; but when I held up the shield of your authority, it was wonderful to observe how the tone of objection melted away Picture Quote #1

We’ve gone all the way from foolishly accepting authority to foolishly rejecting all authority Picture Quote #1

I think when judges are in the position of authority, they really get bent out of shape when someone tells them they acted inappropriately Picture Quote #1

I am building a stairway to the stars. I have the authority to take the whole of mankind up there with me. That is why I write Picture Quote #1

The credulous... advance the authority of hearsay in place of reasons for possible success or facts that can be demonstrated Picture Quote #1

We, perhaps, have corrupted our children and our grandchildren by heedless affluence, by a lack of manliness, by giving the younger generation more money and liberty than their youth can handle, by indoctrinating them with sinister ideologies and false values, by permitting them, as young children, to indulge themselves in imprudence to superiors and defiance of duly constituted authority, by lack of prudent, swift punishment when the transgressed, by coddling and pampering them when they were children and protecting them from a very dangerous world Picture Quote #1

The continuation of authority has frequently proved the undoing of democratic governments. Repeated elections are essential to the system of popular governments, because there is nothing so dangerous as to suffer power to be vested for a long time in one citizen. The people become accustomed to obeying him, and he becomes accustomed to commanding, hence the origin of usurpation and tyranny Picture Quote #1
