In terms of the Eastern Europe stories, my family is originally from there; even as a kid, it was the Russian writers I loved most, and I’ve spent a substantial amount of time there myself, traveling and on research grants. (Eastern Quotes)
I was born too late to have any temptation with communism, or at least Soviet-type communism. Travelling in Eastern Europe and the ex-Soviet Union, you clearly don’t want to defend a system that would have empty shops and a totalitarian regime and internal passports. (Eastern Quotes)
I was interested in the ways that artists responded to totalitarianism - the Czech Jazz Section, Romanian absurdist theatre, Brecht’s alienation effect. The anything-goes, anarchic qualities of jazz and Surrealism seemed to offer a way to cross some of the forbidden frontiers of Eastern Europe. (Eastern Quotes)
Vladimir Putin and Russia. ‘When a bear wakes up from hibernation, he doesn’t eat a few blueberries and then go back to sleep.’ They have their eyes on Eastern Europe, and if NATO is not willing to stand up forcefully to this threat today, it will only become more difficult to do so down the road. (Eastern Quotes)
I would eventually leave the business in 1999 to work full-time as a writer, but during the previous decade, I would advise French businessmen on how to succeed in Germany; tell Americans what to do in Eastern Europe; show the Spanish how to become more like the Americans. I spent one particularly haunting year advising bankers in Mexico. (Eastern Quotes)
This administration, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton through their foreign policy, have betrayed the American people, because the weakness they’ve displayed has led to Putin’s incursions in the Middle East and in eastern Europe, and has led - has led to significant problems in the Middle East as well, and the death and murder of lots of folks. (Eastern Quotes)
Eastern medicine is not about curing your sickness. It’s about keeping you well. (Eastern Quotes)
The development of physics in the twentieth century already has transformed the consciousness of those involved with it. The study (of modern physics) produces insights into the nature of reality very similar to those produced by the study of eastern philosophy. (Eastern Quotes)
Although I respect the Judeo-Christian ethic, as well as the Eastern philosophies, and of course the teachings of Muhammad, I find that organized religion has corrupted those beliefs to justify countless atrocities throughout the ages. Were I to go to church, I’d be a hypocrite. (Eastern Quotes)
I was born Muslim, but for a large part of my life, I wasn’t necessarily raised Muslim. My father always kept everything around us, from Western philosophy to Eastern philosophy. (Eastern Quotes)
The secret to my 5 o’clock shadow is a little device called the George Michael 3000 Custom Beard Trimmer and Personal Massager. Just kidding. I actually shave every morning, and thanks to my vast knowledge of Eastern philosophy and mysticism, I will my facial hair to grow to the exact same length each day. Dave Grohl taught me that one. (Eastern Quotes)
It’s true that Eastern philosophy and religion were not unknown to me as a child, since my father has explored much in that area, and written books more or less in that area, too. (Eastern Quotes)
We’ll surely stop the work of all western Christian and eastern religions, and also Islam (Eastern Quotes)
I’ve been interested in Eastern religions since I went to college because I was trying to figure out where I stood with Catholicism. (Eastern Quotes)
I was sort of born into a Subud cult that has ties to Islam and Indonesia and Middle Eastern spiritualism. My parents were kind of trial-and-error when it came to religion. (Eastern Quotes)
I’m an agnostic in the truest sense of the word. I think about these things - I grew up Roman Catholic, I’ve been interested in Hinduism, in Eastern religions, but I’m not dedicated to anything - I go through periods where I think maybe it’s all nonsense; maybe it’s ‘The Matrix...’ I’m open to various ideas. (Eastern Quotes)
I am a spiritual person in an eastern religion kind of way. I learned that happiness for all of us is a switch that you flick in your brain. It doesn’t have anything to do with getting a new house, a new car, a new girlfriend, or a new pair of shoes. Our culture is very much about that; we are never happy with what we have today. (Eastern Quotes)
The Middle Eastern woman is sophisticated; she is modern. She knows fashion more than anyone else, and she is really sexy, and she does know how to live fashion, and I think we can all learn from each other. (Eastern Quotes)
There is usually an ‘X factor’ that is hard to define. For HTC, I think it is our culture. We embrace the best of our Eastern roots and combine it with the best of the Western cultures where we have leadership and offices. It makes the culture colorful as well as energetic and creative. (Eastern Quotes)
America needs a sensible, sustainable Iran policy that can meet U.S. security and economic interests, command international support and withstand the shifting Middle Eastern sands. (Eastern Quotes)
I don’t know why people have divided the whole world into two groups, west and east. Education is neither eastern nor western. Education is education and it’s the right of every human being. (Eastern Quotes)
In Western dream interpretation, it’s often connected to psychotherapy and looking at the personality and what’s going on in your life. In Eastern dream telling, many times there’s this idea of a special gift. And without this gift, you could study and study, but you’d never really become an effective dream teller. (Eastern Quotes)
I was a big fan of Middle Eastern elements of music and experimental electronic and tribal sounds (Eastern Quotes)
Literature - Eastern and Western - abounds with stories, myths, legends about the search for youth, for eternal life. (Eastern Quotes)
Sometimes I even now feel like a stranger in my country. But I knew there would be problems because I had seen the world as a skater. And now? A lot of people in eastern Germany have lost jobs, rents went up, food costs went up, unemployment went to 20 percent. Freedom is good, but it is not easy. (Eastern Quotes)
I was a senior high school student at the Far Eastern University when the war with Japan broke out in 1941. (Eastern Quotes)
I would say both Western psychology and Eastern paths would recognize that we get caught up in feeling like a separate self and an unworthy self. (Eastern Quotes)
Eastern Washington has experienced a number of deadly forest fires this season, and it is crucial that we have bipartisan legislation that will expedite the research and restoration process. (Eastern Quotes)
Contrary to slanderous Eastern opinion, much of Iowa is not flat, but rolling hills country with a lot of timber, a handsome and imaginative landscape, crowded with constant small changes of scene and full of little creeks winding with pools where shiners, crappies and catfish hover. (Eastern Quotes)
Fantasy is the tendency of Americans, going back to colonial times, to look at the Middle East as a type of fractured mirror of the United States - a type of mirror that could look a lot more like the United States, if, say, a Middle Eastern George Washington would emerge. (Eastern Quotes)
