Different Quotes

I’m not a loud, extravagant person; I’m never going to be that and, to be honest, I don’t want to be like that. I don’t show off or boast, and it’s pointless to think I’m going to be any different Picture Quote #1

Reframing an extract as a quotation constitutes a kind of coauthorship. With no change in wording, the cited passage becomes different. I imagine that the thrill of making an anthology includes the opportunity to become such a coauthor Picture Quote #1

Euphonic and harmonious expressions, forcible and just expressions, profound and comprehensive expressions, and especially apt and witty expressions, each have their specific influence upon different minds, and their common influence upon all minds... It is therefore high time our most valuable aphorisms and paragraphs were put in order for frequent perusal, and for handy reference, as the circumstances of life call up subjects Picture Quote #1

Let everyone witness how many different cards fortune has up her sleeve when she wants to ruin a man Picture Quote #1

Though all humans need both intimacy and independence, women tend to focus on the first and men on the second. It is as if their lifeblood ran in different directions Picture Quote #1

Women are not men’s equals in anything except responsibility. We are not their inferiors, either, or even their superiors. We are quite simply different races Picture Quote #1

Authors are now marketed like promising movie starlets and must rattle around the nation’s television stations to try to assert a salable identity different from that of the other starlets Picture Quote #1

I don’t really have an image of myself. Now, is that true? Well, maybe I do and it’s different, which is why I get shocked when I see how other people experience me. I see myself primarily in a domestic setting Picture Quote #1

It doesn’t matter what I say as long as I sound different from other politicians Picture Quote #1

The artist is not a different kind of person, but every person is a different kind of artist Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t wish the eighties on anyone, it was the time when all that was rotten bubbled to the surface. If you were not at the receiving end of this mayhem you could be unaware of it. It was possible to live through the decade preoccupied by the mortgage and the pence you saved on your income tax. It was also possible for those of us who saw what was happening to turn our eyes in a different direction; but what, in another decade, had been a trip to the clap clinic was now a trip to the mortuary Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to be the first. It’s almost as if I’m subject to a different level of inspection Picture Quote #1

A journalist is basically a chronicler, not an interpreter of events. Where else in society do you have the license to eavesdrop on so many different conversations as you have in journalism? Where else can you delve into the life of our times? Picture Quote #1

Any woman who has a career and a family automatically develops something in the way of two personalities, like two sides of a dollar bill, each different in design. Her problem is to keep one from draining the life from the other Picture Quote #1

Art and ideology often interact on each other; but the plain fact is that both spring from a common source. Both draw on human experience to explain mankind to itself; both attempt, in very different ways, to assemble coherence from seemingly unrelated phenomena; both stand guard for us against chaos Picture Quote #1

Every dog is allowed one bite, but a different view is taken of a dog that goes on biting all the time. He may not get his licence returned when it falls due Picture Quote #1

Friendships are different from all other relationships. Unlike acquaintanceship, friendship is based on love. Unlike lovers and married couples, it is free of jealousy. Unlike children and parents, it knows neither criticism nor resentment. Friendship has no status in law. Business partnerships are based on a contract. So is marriage. Parents are bound by law. But friendships are freely entered into, freely given, and freely exercised Picture Quote #1

The thumb does not have very a important role when shifting from one position to another. There is too much said, as it seems to me, about importance of the thumb... The thumb must lightly touch the neck and follow the forefinger when moving in different positions, aiding the hand to shift up and down without clutching the instrument Picture Quote #1

Every time a fellow golfer gives me a piece of advice I have thought about it. A different thing is that this advice can be introduced into my golfing routine Picture Quote #1

Facts can’t be recounted; much less twice over, and far less still by different persons. I’ve already drummed that thoroughly into your head Picture Quote #1

Intellectual sodomy, which comes from the refusal to be simple about plain matters, is as gross and abundant today as sexual perversion and they are nowise different from one another Picture Quote #1

Compare society to a boat. Her progress through the water will not depend upon the exertion of her crew, but upon the exertion devoted to propelling her. This will be lessened by any expenditure of force in fighting among themselves, or in pulling in different directions Picture Quote #1

Science is the only truth and it is the great lie. It knows nothing, and people think it knows everything. It is misrepresented. People think that science is electricity, automobilism, and dirigible balloons. It is something very different. It is life devouring itself. It is the sensibility transformed into intelligence. It is the need to know stifling the need to live. It is the genius of knowledge vivisecting the vital genius Picture Quote #1

Anthropology provides a scientific basis for dealing with the crucial dilemma of the world today how can peoples of different appearance, mutually unintelligible languages, and dissimilar ways of life get along peaceably together Picture Quote #1

Authority and power are two different things: power is the force by means of which you can oblige others to obey you. Authority is the right to direct and command, to be listened to or obeyed by others. Authority requests power. Power without authority is tyranny Picture Quote #1

Experiment is necessary in establishing an academy, but certain principles must apply to this business of art as to any other business which affects the artistic tic sense of the community. Great art speaks a language which every intelligent person can understand. The people who call themselves modernists today speak a different language Picture Quote #1

I have never, in all my various travels, seen but two sorts of people I mean men and women, who always have been, and ever will be, the same. The same vices and the same follies have been the fruit of all ages, though sometimes under different names Picture Quote #1

Brain surgery is a terrible profession. If I did not feel it will become different in my lifetime, I should hate it Picture Quote #1

Law school taught me one thing: how to take two situations that are exactly the same and show how they are different Picture Quote #1

The nation is burdened with the heavy curse on those who come afterwards. The generation before us was inspired by an activism and a naive enthusiasm, which we cannot rekindle, because we confront tasks of a different kind from those which our fathers faced Picture Quote #1
