Explain Quotes

The sight of him did something to me I’ve never quite been able to explain. He was more than tremendous speed and beauty of motion. He set me dreaming Picture Quote #1

It’s not what the world gives you, but what you can give it. I’m lucky. I can give the world talent. I can explain it and show it to people. That’s what I love doing. I just love it Picture Quote #1

I wanted the world to sit back, listen up, and let me explain to it that when someone is sad and hopeless, the last thing they need to feel is that they are the only ones in the world with that feeling. So, if you feel sorry for someone, don’t pretend to be happy. Don’t pretend to care only about their problems Picture Quote #1

I don’t have a gardener because I enjoy pulling weeds. It’s hard to explain but there is something fulfilling about pulling out a weed and knowing that you got all the roots Picture Quote #1

I don’t like reading scripts very much. I like it better for someone to just explain to me what it is about this story Picture Quote #1

Broadway was without doubt the hardest I ever worked in my life and the highest highs I’ve ever had as an actor. The unadulterated fear was on a level that was hard to explain Picture Quote #1

We and you ought not to pull on the ends of a rope which you have tied the knots of war. Because the more the two of us pull, the tighter the knot will be tied. And then it will be necessary to cut that knot, and what that would mean is not for me to explain to you. I have participated in two wars and know that war ends when it has rolled through cities and villages, everywhere sowing death and destruction. For such is the logic of war. If people do not display wisdom, they will clash like blind moles and then mutual annihilation will commence Picture Quote #1

Outsiders always look for a reason to explain why they are not inside. They never look in the mirror. Let’s face it, the profession I’m in is a very simple and a very cruel one. There is no way that you can create a career for someone without talent and no way to stop a career of someone with talent Picture Quote #1

I’d like every man who doesn’t call himself a feminist to explain to the women in his life why he doesn’t believe in equality for women Picture Quote #1

Home was not the place where you were born but the place you created yourself, where you did not need to explain, where you finally became what you were Picture Quote #1

I have learned to prize holy ignorance more highly than religious certainty and to seek companions who have arrived at the same place. We are a motley crew, distinguished not only by our inability to explain ourselves to those who are more certain of their beliefs than we are but in many cases by our distance from the centers of our faith communities as well Picture Quote #1

If a theory purports to explain everything, then it is likely not explaining much at all Picture Quote #1

You need to face, you need to confront, and really properly look at what’s happening, and not try and explain it away or give it justifications or anything, because at this juncture, we still, by our finger nails, have the chance to make a difference, and turn this around. And to not take part and to just watch…….., but if you don’t push back, if you don’t face it and confront it for what it is, it’ll just takeover, and then no one will be free Picture Quote #1

Go your way, seducers, flatterers, idlers, those glib of tongue and charlatans; I am not a seed that you can force to grow; my goal differs so from yours that I would be wasting my time in trying to explain where my inclination drives me Picture Quote #1

I happen to believe the world will change only when we change ourselves. And that starts with finding ourselves: learning to quiet the clamor in our minds and the voices of everyone around us and move toward what feels right – toward the things we know, for reasons we can’t explain, that we’re mean to do, the things that makes us feel alive Picture Quote #1

If you are able to explain suffering, a man once told him, you weren’t really there Picture Quote #1

Of all the sacred places on the coast, none is more comforting than where rivers join the sea. By the river’s disappearance we are reminded of life’s passing, while by the ocean’s beauty we accept it, in a hope we cannot explain Picture Quote #1

Talking about the past is like a cat’s trying to explain climbing down a ladder Picture Quote #1

Art is not ideology. It is completely impossible to explain art on the basis of the homological relation that it is supposed to maintain with the real of history. The aesthetic process decentres the specular relation with which ideology perpetuates its closed infinity. The aesthetic effect is certainly imaginary; but this imaginary is not the reflection of the real, since it is the real of this reflection Picture Quote #1

If a nonnegative quantity was so small that it is smaller than any given one, then it certainly could not be anything but zero. To those who ask what the infinitely small quantity in mathematics is, we answer that it is actually zero. Hence there are not so many mysteries hidden in this concept as they are usually believed to be. These supposed mysteries have rendered the calculus of the infinitely small quite suspect to many people. Those doubts that remain we shall thoroughly remove in the following pages, where we shall explain this calculus Picture Quote #1

There is the truth about the marathon and very few of you have written the truth. Even if I explain to you, you’ll never understand it, you’re outside of it Picture Quote #1

Did you ever have a conversation with someone who misunderstood everything you had to say? It’s exhausting, and the ironic part is that the more you try and explain yourself, the more mixed up things become. Your best friend knows when you’re kidding, venting, and tired. He or she knows you and therefore doesn’t read into the things you say Picture Quote #1

In order to really understand, we need to listen, not reply. We need to listen long and attentively. In order to help anybody to open his heart we have to give him time, asking only a few questions, as carefully as possible in order to help him better explain his experience Picture Quote #1

Poverty cannot be accepted as a pretext and justification for the exploitation of children. It does not explain the huge global demand with, in many instances, customers from rich countries circumventing their national laws to exploit children in other countries. Sex tourism has spread its illicit wings wide, and paedophiles search for their victims in all parts of the globe. The problem is compounded by the criminal networks which benefit from the trade in children, and by collusion and corruption in many national settings Picture Quote #1

Pictures rule, but words define, explain, express, direct, and hold together our thoughts and what we know Picture Quote #1

I don’t think people understand how stressful it is to explain what’s going on in your head when you don’t even understand it yourself Picture Quote #1

I’d always thought that my awkwardness was a thin veil disguising the real me. The me that was funny and could write songs that touched people. The me that would one day find some beautiful, intelligent boy who’d recognize me as his soul mate. The me who was secretly pretty and stylish if only someone would lift the veil and see. But I was beginning to suspect that underneath the awkwardness there was just more awkwardness and not much else. And that would explain why I stood in a room full of people and felt like the loneliest girl in the world Picture Quote #1

People with tiny glasses and costly shoes can always find a couple of hours to explain how you did it all wrong Picture Quote #1

The main duty of the historian of mathematics, as well as his fondest privilege, is to explain the humanity of mathematics, to illustrate its greatness, beauty and dignity, and to describe how the incessant efforts and accumulated genius of many generations have built up that magnificent monument, the object of our most legitimate pride as men, and of our wonder, humility and thankfulness, as individuals. The study of the history of mathematics will not make better mathematicians but gentler ones, it will enrich their minds, mellow their hearts, and bring out their finer qualities Picture Quote #1

Looking to biology to explain the low prevalence of eating disorders among men is like looking to genetics to explain why nonsmokers do not get lung cancer as often as smokers Picture Quote #1
