Text Quotes
The ergometer simulates the physical demands of rowing, packaging the pains with none of the amenities that make it worthwhile (Demands Quotes)
The work of the inventor consists of conceptualizing, combining, and ordering what is possible according to the laws of nature. This inner working out which precedes the external has a twofold characteristic: the participation of the subconscious in the inventing subject; and that encounter with an external power which demands and obtains complete subjugation, so that the way to the solution is experienced as the fitting of one’s own imagination to this power (Demands Quotes)
To view your life as blessed does not require you to deny your pain. It simply demands a more complicated vision, one in which a condition or event is not either good or bad but is, rather, both good and bad, not sequentially, but simultaneously (Demands Quotes)
The majority work to make a living; some work to acquire wealth or fame, while a few work because there is something within them which demands expression... Only a few truly love it (Demands Quotes)
When girls are educated and free to pursue their passions, they contribute more to a thriving society. When women have a voice, they raise it to demand a life that is greater than what they’ve been told they have a right to expect. And these demands change the future for everyone (Demands Quotes)
Spiritual means religion without any rules. It’s all the comfort of fictitious friends with none of their demands (Demands Quotes)
God doesn’t want our success; He wants us. He doesn’t demand our achievements; He demands our obedience (Demands Quotes)
That’s how oppression works. Thousands of otherwise decent people are persuaded to go along with an unfair system because changing it seems like too much bother. The appropriate response when somebody demands a change in that unfair system is to listen, rather than turn away or yell, as a child might, that it’s not your fault. Of course it isn’t your fault. I’m sure you’re lovely. That doesn’t mean you don’t have a responsibility to do something about it (Demands Quotes)
To put a tempting face aside when duty demands every faculty is a lesson which takes most men longest to learn (Demands Quotes)
In spite of all similarities, every living situation has, like a newborn child, a new face, that has never been before and will never come again. It demands of you a reaction that cannot be prepared beforehand. It demands nothing of what is past. It demands presence, responsibility; it demands you (Demands Quotes)
Sometimes, and those times are many, wisdom demands that we remain silent. This is such a time (Demands Quotes)
Peace demands the united efforts of us all. Who can foresee what spark might ignite the fuse? (Demands Quotes)
Selling your life to sit in a box and work for a machine. An uncaring machine that demands productivity that doesn’t understand you and doesn’t want to understand you... There’s no natural behaviour. Everyone is wearing clothes they don’t want to wear. Everybody is showing up and doing something they don’t want to do. They have no connection to it. That’s the problem with our society (Demands Quotes)
There’s a simplicity in typography that demands absolute accuracy... the only way you can experience it is by doing it, and you can’t do it on a screen because a screen never gives you the entire picture (Demands Quotes)
You know, the very strength of science is that it keeps us from the errors of mythos, from getting committed to a set of memes that we adopt because of congruence with what we think we know. Science demands skepticism (Demands Quotes)
The lessons of great men and women are lost unless they reinforce upon our minds the highest demands which we make upon ourselves; they are lost unless they drive our sluggish wills forward in the direction of their highest ideas (Demands Quotes)
The operational approach demands that we make our reports and do our thinking in the freshest terms of which we are capable, in which we strip off the sophistications of millenia of culture and report as directly as we can on what happens (Demands Quotes)
The roles of art, morality, religion, political faith, science itself are not to repair organic exhaustion nor to provide sound functioning of the organs. All this supraphysical life is built and expanded not because of the demands of the cosmic environment but because of the demands of the social environment (Demands Quotes)
You’re going to react to a painting in a way that the painting demands you react (Demands Quotes)
I think in the old days, films really went for the shock, with the blood and guts, but movies are getting better. The writing and directing have improved a lot, because the audience demands it (Demands Quotes)
Fiction demands structures and recognizable shapes. Big surprises only draw attention to the writer’s hand (Demands Quotes)
Nursing demands vigilance about people. The sights and smells that a patient offers, their movements and their offhand comments all contribute crucial information to understanding what they need. Training and experience heighten one’s ability to see what needs to be seen (Demands Quotes)
Trust is essential for our social wellbeing. Without trusting the good will of others we retreat into bureaucracy, rules and demands for more law and order. Trust is based on positive experiences with other people an it grows with use. We need to trust that others are going be basically reasonable beings (Demands Quotes)
Achieving control over change, in respect to lifestyle, demands an engagement with the outer social world rather than a retreat from it (Demands Quotes)
The increased abstraction in mathematics that took place during the early part of this century was paralleled by a similar trend in the arts. In both cases, the increased level of abstraction demands greater effort on the part of anyone who wants to understand the work (Demands Quotes)
... we are obliged to produce the truth by the power that demands truth and needs it in order to function: we are constrained, we are condemned to admit the truth or to discover it. Power constantly asks questions and questions us; it constantly investigates and records; it institutionalizes the search for the truth, professionalizes it, and rewards it.... In a different sense, we are also subject to the truth in the sense that truth lays down the law: it is the discourse of truth that decides, at least in part; it conveys and propels effects of power (Demands Quotes)
... teaching cannot be a process of transference of knowledge from the one teaching to the learner. This is the mechanical transference from which results machinelike memorization, which I have already criticized. Critical study correlates with teaching that is equally critical, which necessarily demands a critical way of comprehending and of realizing the reading of the word and that of the world, the reading of text and of context (Demands Quotes)
Real meditation engenders humility and purity, always. Yet I don’t really think it demands any kind of lifestyle (Demands Quotes)
Nature will not let us stay in any one place for too long. She will let us stay just long enough to gather the experience necessary to the unfolding and advancement of the soul. This is a wise provision, for should we stay there too long, we would become too set, too rigid, too inflexible. Nature demands change in order that we may advance (Demands Quotes)
What is a genius? A person who demands little to nothing from others, but is often found extremely difficult to have around (Demands Quotes)
