This is suicidal... our home is the biosphere. That’s a very thin layer of air, water and land where all life exists. It’s fixed, it can’t grow, and yet we cling to this idea that the economy can grow forever. And it must. Well, it can’t Picture Quote #1

I endeavor to keep their attention fixed on the main objects of all science, the freedom and happiness of man Picture Quote #1

However much the various phases of the French Revolution may have modelled themselves on Roman history the early phase on Republican virtue, the later on Imperial grandeur the fact remains that classicism depended on a fixed and rational philosophy; whereas the spirit of the Revolution was one of change and of emotion Picture Quote #1

One is so apt to think of people’s affection as a fixed quantity, instead of a sort of moving so with the tide, always going out or coming in but still fundamentally there: and I believe this difficulty in making allowance for the tide is the reason for half the broken friendships Picture Quote #1

The cardinal sin in sports, what could really wreck it, is not cheating to win, which has gone on forever, but cheating to lose.

How much is an hour of your time worth? It’s worth whatever wage you would get if you spent that hour working. If you work for an hourly rate, this is an easy calculation.

A song ain’t nothing but a conversation fixed up to where you can talk it over and over without getting tired of it Picture Quote #1

But to just chop yourself up to look a few years younger? You could come out looking like a Picasso picture Picture Quote #1

If you want good behavior, don’t pay on a commission basis. Our judges aren’t paid so much a case. We keep them pretty well isolated with a fixed salary. Judges in this whole thing have come out pretty well - there have been relatively few scandals Picture Quote #1

Brantford was the fixed point of my universe, growing up. Both sets of grandparents lived there, with various cousins and uncles and aunts, and no matter how far we’d moved off, we came back there for regular visits. In a way no other houses have ever been, my grandparents’ houses were ‘home,’ and the sale of the last of those houses was hard Picture Quote #1

It is when things go hardest, when life becomes most trying, that there is greatest need for having a fixed goal Picture Quote #1

The most fatal illusion is the settled point of view. Since life is growth and motion, a fixed point of view kills anybody who has one Picture Quote #1
