Definition Quotes

I have consciously sought after those things which make for value, order, richness, spirit and wonder, even though I am often unable to verbalize what I feel when I perceive something beautiful.

The fact that it is beyond definition means nothing Picture Quote #1

Can you remember when you didn’t want to sleep? Isn’t it inconceivable? I guess the definition of adulthood is that you want to sleep Picture Quote #1

Shedding the carapace we have been building so assiduously on the surface, we must by definition give up exactly what we thought was necessary to protect us from further harm Picture Quote #1

I think most newspapermen by definition have to be liberal; if they’re not liberal, by definition of it, then they can hardly be good newspapermen. If they’re preordained dogmatists for a cause, then they can’t be very good journalists Picture Quote #1

I think that being liberal, in the true sense, is being nondoctrinaire, nondogmatic, noncomitted to a cause but examining each case on its merits. Being left of center is another thing; it’s a political position. I think most newspapermen by definition have to be liberal; if they’re not liberal, by my definition of it, then they can hardly be good newspapermen Picture Quote #1

It is a trite but true definition that examples work more forcibly on the mind than precepts Picture Quote #1

My personal definition of rock’n’roll is people attempting to do something that’s beyond their ability to do it well. And whatever the outward contradictions, I do call us a rock’n’roll band Picture Quote #1

The two sides of the equation are the same. We have a tautology. The definition is meaningless Picture Quote #1

I cannot accept the definition of collective good as articulated by a privileged minority in society, especially when that minority is in power Picture Quote #1
