Text Quotes
Just after I entered my teens I suddenly entertained an insatiable enthusiasm for the delightful habit of criticizing others  (Habit Quotes) I liked movies so much that they became an obsession. I am still trying to kick the habit  (Habit Quotes) Habit with him was all the test of truth; It must be right: I’ve done it from my youth  (Habit Quotes) A lot of fancier yarns come from people trying to tell the truth. It’s not easy once you’re out of the habit  (Habit Quotes) As art is a habit with reference to things to be done, so is science a habit in respect to things to be known  (Habit Quotes) We follow ideas and not men, and rebel against this habit of embodying a principle in a man  (Habit Quotes) When, in the present world, men behave well, that is no doubt sometimes because they are creatures of habit as well as, sometimes, because they are reasonable  (Habit Quotes) Ideology is not the product of thought; it is the habit or the ritual of showing respect for certain formulas to which, for various reasons having to do with emotional safety, we have very strong ties of whose meaning and consequences in actuality we have no clear understanding  (Habit Quotes) The artisan or scientist or the follower of whatever discipline who has the habit of comparing himself not with other followers but with the discipline itself will have a lower opinion of himself, the more excellent he is  (Habit Quotes) Thought itself needs words. It runs on them like a long wire. And if it loses the habit of words, little by little it becomes shapeless, somber  (Habit Quotes) As to virtue... it is an act of the will, a habit which increases the quantity, intensity and quality of life. It builds up, strengthens and vivifies personality  (Habit Quotes) Cultivate the habit of attention and try to gain opportunities to hear wise men and women talk. Indifference and inattention are the two most dangerous monsters that you ever meet. Interest and attention will insure to you an education  (Habit Quotes) Enthusiasm is the electricity of life. How do you get it? You act enthusiastic until you make it a habit. Enthusiasm is natural; it is being alive, taking the initiative, seeing the importance of what you do, giving it dignity and making what you do important to yourself and to others  (Habit Quotes) It is no small mischief to a boy, that many of the best years of his life should be devoted to the learning of what can never be of any real use to any human being. His mind is necessarily rendered frivolous and superficial by the long habit of attaching importance to words instead of things; to sound instead of sense  (Habit Quotes) Plenty of men can do good work for a spurt and with immediate promotion in mind, but for promotion you want a man in whom good work has become a habit  (Habit Quotes) Winners are those people who make a habit of doing the things losers are uncomfortable doing  (Habit Quotes) When we walk the streets at night in safety, it does not strike us that this might be otherwise. This habit of feeling safe has become second nature, and we do not reflect on just how this is due solely to the working of special institutions. Commonplace thinking often has the impression that force holds the state together, but in fact its only bond is the fundamental sense of order which everybody possesses  (Habit Quotes) There is no virtue in being uncritical; nor is it a habit to which the young are given. But criticism is only the burying beetle that gets rid of what is dead, and, since the world lives by creative and constructive forces, and not by negation and destruction, it is better to grow up in the company of prophets than of critics  (Habit Quotes) The constant habit of perusing devout books is so indispensable, that it has been termed the oil of the lamp of prayer. Too much reading, however, and too little meditation, may produce the effect of a lamp inverted; which is extinguished by the very excess of that ailment, whose property is to feed it  (Habit Quotes) When a milestone is conquered, the subtle erosion called entitlement begins its consuming grind. The team regards its greatness as a trait and a right. Half hearted effort becomes habit and saps a champion  (Habit Quotes) The first evil choice or act is linked to the second; and each one to the one that follows, both by the tendency of our evil nature and by the power of habit, which holds us as by a destiny  (Habit Quotes) I wanted to be a brain surgeon, but I had a bad habit of dropping things  (Habit Quotes) A novel with a bad middle is a bad book. A bad ending is something I’ve just gotten in the habit of forgiving  (Habit Quotes) There’s something very addictive about people pleasing. It’s a thought pattern and a habit that feels really, really good until it becomes desperate  (Habit Quotes) Access to books and the encouragement of the habit of reading: these two things are the first and most necessary steps in education and librarians, teachers and parents all over the country know it. It is our children’s right and it is also our best hope and their best hope for the future  (Habit Quotes) I personally don’t think ginger men have a habit of being attractive. We have to make ourselves seem attractive by doing stuff  (Habit Quotes) I regularly take my entrepreneurship students out walking because I want to get them in the habit of noticing and thinking about what they notice. They have to leave their phones behind to learn the basic lesson: Be where you are  (Habit Quotes) There are 10,000 books in my library, and it will keep growing until I die. This has exasperated my daughters, amused my friends and baffled my accountant. If I had not picked up this habit in the library long ago, I would have more money in the bank today; I would not be richer  (Habit Quotes) We look for medicine to be an orderly field of knowledge and procedure. But it is not. It is an imperfect science, an enterprise of constantly changing knowledge, uncertain information, fallible individuals, and at the same time lives on the line. There is science in what we do, yes, but also habit, intuition, and sometimes plain old guessing. The gap between what we know and what we aim for persists. And this gap complicates everything we do  (Habit Quotes) You can get used to eating breakfast with a man in a fedora. You can get used to anything, my mother was in the habit of saying  (Habit Quotes)
