Text Quotes
We have to go from what is essentially an industrial model of education, a manufacturing model, which is based on linearity and conformity and batching people. We have to move to a model that is based more on principles of agriculture. We have to recognize that human flourishing is not a mechanical process; it’s an organic process. And you cannot predict the outcome of human development. All you can do, like a farmer, is create the conditions under which they will begin to flourish  (Essentially Quotes) Gay people exist. There’s nothing we can do in public policy that makes more of us exist, or less of us exist. And you guys have been arguing for a generation that public policy ought to essentially demean gay people as a way of expressing disapproval of the fact that we exist, but you don’t make any less of us exist. You just are arguing in favor of more discrimination, and more discrimination doesn’t make straight people’s lives any better  (Essentially Quotes) Power always acts destructively, for its possessors are ever striving to lace all phenomena of social life into a corset of their laws to give them a definite shape. Its mental expression is dead dogma; its physical manifestation of life, brute force. This lack of intelligence in its endeavours leaves its imprint likewise on the persons of its representatives, gradually making them mentally inferior and brutal, even though they were originally excellently endowed. Nothing dulls the mind and soul of man as does the eternal monotony of routine, and power is essentially routine  (Essentially Quotes) I had motives for not wanting the world to have meaning; consequently assumed that it had none, and was able without any difficulty to find satisfying reasons for this assumption... For myself, as no doubt, for most of my contemporaries, the philosophy of meaninglessness was essentially an instrument of liberation. The liberation we desired was simultaneous liberation from a certain political and economic system, and liberation from a certain system of morality. We objected to the morality because it interfered with our sexual freedom  (Essentially Quotes) In the course of four hours, I watched my brain completely deteriorate in its ability to process all information. On the morning of the hemorrhage, I could not walk, talk, read, write or recall any of my life. I essentially became an infant in a woman’s body  (Essentially Quotes) A conservative government survives essentially by dampening expectations and subduing hopes. Conservatism is basically pessimistic, reformism is basically optimistic  (Essentially Quotes) Sound morals, religious liberty, and a just sense of religious responsibility are essentially connected with all true and lasting happiness  (Essentially Quotes) It meant something to me – the idea of a coat guarding and hiding a woman’s body. For me, a woman who is absorbed in her work, who does not care about gaining one’s favor, strong yet subtle at the same time, is essentially more seductive. The more she hides and abandons her femininity, the more it emerges from the very heart of her existence  (Essentially Quotes) The pathology of setting a deadline to the earliest articulable date essentially guarantees that the schedule will be missed  (Essentially Quotes) In printmaking, I essentially use the same process as in painting with one important exception... to try, with sensitivity to the medium to emphasize what printing can do best... better than say, painting or collaging or watercolour or drawing or whatever... Otherwise, the artist expresses the same vision in graphics that he does in his other work  (Essentially Quotes) I shall attempt to prove two things: first, that the actions and dispositions of mankind are the offspring of circumstances and events, and not of any original determination that they bring into the world; and, secondly, that the great stream of our voluntary actions essentially depends, not upon the direct and immediate impulses of sense, but upon the decisions of the understanding  (Essentially Quotes) Our ability to find humor in the world, to make connections between previously unconnected notions, to create new ideas, to share in a common culture: All these essentially human acts depend on memory  (Essentially Quotes) Theatre artists are essentially sort of charlatans and thieves, I mean that’s the tradition that we come from, so I have absolutely no, I make no bones about the fact that I steal from here and I take from there, and we all do it, that’s perfectly all right, that’s the nothing, there’s nothing new in the world, there’s nothing actually new in the way that you do something, but the point is is how do you take something and use it to articulate what is essentially a core of any given theatrical production  (Essentially Quotes) In strongly opposing the world of play to that of reality, and in stressing that play is essentially a side activity, the interference is drawn that any contamination by ordinary life runs the risk of corrupting and destroying its very nature  (Essentially Quotes) Socialism and capitalism are both essentially materialist, just different ways of approaching the lifeless world of matter and deciding how to share the spoils  (Essentially Quotes) The opportunities and threats existing in any situation always exceed the resources needed to exploit the opportunities or avoid the threats. Thus, strategy is essentially a problem of allocating resources. If strategy is to be successful, it must allocate superior resources against a decisive opportunity  (Essentially Quotes) I like the idea of taking a true classic written by a true genius and essentially destroying it!  (Essentially Quotes) We do all the things we can to essentially brainwash people into liking it before it actually comes out  (Essentially Quotes) There’s nothing essentially romantic about things like roses or jewelry. Romance starts as some blank concept, and then you just fill it in with objects so you have something to point to when you want to make it real  (Essentially Quotes) It is perfectly legitimate to write novels which are essentially prose poems, but in the end, I think, a novel is like a car, and if you buy a car and grow flowers in it, you’re forgetting that the car is designed to take you somewhere else  (Essentially Quotes) Essentially, all life depends upon the soil... There can be no life without soil and no soil without life; they have evolved together  (Essentially Quotes) Women’s fight for equal rights is essentially a humanist and peaceful struggle for true democracy, and a higher form of civilization  (Essentially Quotes) The more personal you make something, the more universal it becomes, because essentially we’re all made up of the same emotional stuff  (Essentially Quotes) An economist says that essentially more for you is less for me, but the lover knows that more for you is more for me, too  (Essentially Quotes) One of the reasons we think this market will start to run out of gas at some point is that you’ve essentially created as much gold from straw as you can from this financial alchemy  (Essentially Quotes) Essentially, the life of expression is the ongoing journey of how we heal each other... for by telling our stories and listening to the stories of others, we let out who we are and find ourselves in each other, and find that we are more together than alone  (Essentially Quotes) Avatar is the most high tech film in terms of its execution, dealing with essentially a very low tech subject; which is our relationship with nature... and in fact the irony is that the film is about our relationship with nature and how our technological civilization has taken us several removes away from a truly natural existence and the consequences of that to us  (Essentially Quotes) When it comes to our health, there are essentially four things under our control: the decision not to smoke, a commitment to exercise, the quality of our diet, and our level of optimism. And optimism is at least as beneficial as the others  (Essentially Quotes) There are essentially three types of people: those who love life more than they fear it, those who fear life more than they love it, and those who have no clue what I’m talking about  (Essentially Quotes) Who are we? That is the big question. And essentially we are just an upright, walking, big brained, super intelligent ape  (Essentially Quotes)
