Debate Quotes

This country is about, in my judgment, aggressive, open debate. There is an old saying: When everyone is thinking the same thing, no one is thinking very much Picture Quote #1

We can know nothing till after this grave debate. The soul must withdraw, for this is not its hour. Now the knife must divide the flesh, and lay the ravage bare, and do its work completely Picture Quote #1

I enjoyed debate on the floor but it’s not really debate in the same way Picture Quote #1

See that’s a goal that I think it’s very good in the debate to find out who the person is Picture Quote #1

I should add that it is open to debate whether what we call the writing of history these days is truly scientific Picture Quote #1

Linguistic philosophers continue to argue that probably music is not a language, that is in the philosophical debate. Another point of view is to say that music is a very profound language Picture Quote #1

I don’t feel that an atmosphere of debate and total disagreement and argument is such a bad thing. It makes for a vital and alive field Picture Quote #1

The debate on how to shrink the federal government is at the core of our problem of government not doing its job Picture Quote #1

I raise this objection to debate the process, and protect the integrity of the true will of the people Picture Quote #1

It is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision Picture Quote #1

I’ve led a school whose faculty and students examine and discuss and debate every aspect of our law and legal system. And what I’ve learned most is that no one has a monopoly on truth or wisdom. I’ve learned that we make progress by listening to each other, across every apparent political or ideological divide Picture Quote #1

The essence of liberalism is negotiation, a cautious half measure, in the hope that the definitive dispute, the decisive bloody battle, can be transformed into a parliamentary debate and permit the decision to be suspended forever in an everlasting discussion Picture Quote #1

The dinner table is a lively debate, and everybody weighs in in a different way. I like that, though Picture Quote #1

I think people have to set up little battles. They have to demonize people whom they disagree with or feel threatened by. But it’s the ideological framing of the debate that scares me Picture Quote #1

People can get their news any way they want. What I love about what’s happened is that there are so many different avenues, there are so many different outlets, so many different ways to debate and discuss and to inquire about any given news story Picture Quote #1

Nowledge which... transcends the bounds, the prejudices and prejudgements of any one society and culture is not an illusion but, on the contrary, a glorious and luminous reality. Just how it was achieved remains subject to debate Picture Quote #1

Climate change is a controversial subject, right? People will debate whether there is climate change... that’s a whole political debate that I don’t want to get into. I want to talk about the frequency of extreme weather situations, which is not political Picture Quote #1

A presidential debate is a job interview. And voters look for certain traits in people applying to be president Picture Quote #1

We need a government, not politics. Because there’s too much politics. Of course there should be debate. But there seems to be so much pettiness and not enough good faith. It is civilized to agree to disagree, and this idea is slowly disintegrating. The great statesmen of the past knew this, and I think it helps drive civilization Picture Quote #1

Democracy must be built through open societies that share information. When there is information, there is enlightenment. When there is debate, there are solutions. When there is no sharing of power, no rule of law, no accountability, there is abuse, corruption, subjugation and indignation Picture Quote #1

Political differences will always generate a healthy debate, but over time the dialogue has become more hateful and at times violent Picture Quote #1

It is never smart, even in a strong democracy, to declare some debate off limits. In a weakening democracy it is catastrophic Picture Quote #1

Instead of this fruitless debate about having it all, men and women should focus on what make us happy. Instead of comparing our lives with people we don’t know who are making sacrifices we don’t see, we should try to find the right balance between home and work life Picture Quote #1

There are always signs that a reign is ending, and they are usually spotted not in the king himself but in his court. In the inner circle, latent jealousies between advisers spill into open conflict, as they angrily debate who is to blame for the calamity, chewing over each other’s past errors and pointing the finger at old and nascent enemies Picture Quote #1

I think many people kill themselves simply to stop the debate about whether they will or they won’t Picture Quote #1

Actually, it was only part of myself I wanted to kill: the part that wanted to kill herself, that dragged me into the suicide debate and made every window, kitchen implement, and subway station a rehearsal for tragedy Picture Quote #1

I am to cover the philosophical side of the debate and so far my only thought is that reading keeps you from going gaga Picture Quote #1

Good conversational debate is an end in itself, and talking for the love of conversation is what makes us human Picture Quote #1

The writer’s job is to write with rigor, with commitment, to defend what they believe with all the talent they have. I think that’s part of the moral obligation of a writer, which cannot be only purely artistic. I think a writer has some kind of responsibility at least to participate in the civic debate. I think literature is impoverished, if it becomes cut from the main agenda of people, of society, of life Picture Quote #1

Southern women can say more with a cut of their eyes than a whole debate club’s worth of speeches Picture Quote #1
