Text Quotes
I came to realize that exaggerated concern about what others are doing can be foolish. It can paralyze effort, and stifle a good idea. One finds that in the history of science, almost every problem has been worked out by someone else. This should not discourage anyone from pursuing his own path  (Idea Quotes) All men are sculptors, constantly chipping away the unwanted parts of their lives, trying to create their idea of a masterpiece  (Idea Quotes) It is the man of science, eager to have his every opinion regenerated, his every idea rationalized, by drinking at the fountain of fact, and devoting all the energies of his life to the cult of truth, not as he understands it, but as he does not yet understand it, that ought properly to be called a philosopher  (Idea Quotes) We greatly want a brief word to express the science of improving stock, which is by no means confined to questions of judicious mating, but which, especially in the case of man, takes cognizance of all influences that tend in however remote a degree to give to the more suitable races or strains of blood a better chance of prevailing speedily over the less suitable than they otherwise would have had. The word eugenics would sufficiently express the idea  (Idea Quotes) If there is anything more dangerous to the life of the mind than having no independent commitment to ideas, it is having an excess of commitment to some special and constricting idea  (Idea Quotes) Defeat is a fact and victory can be a fact. If the idea is good, it will survive defeat, it may even survive the victory  (Idea Quotes) Ideas are born, they struggle, triumph, change, and they are transformed; but is there a dead idea which in the end does not live on, transformed into a broader and clearer goal?  (Idea Quotes) When a woman gets the idea of justice, there’s no teaching her any sense  (Idea Quotes) A thing in itself never expresses anything. It is the relation between things that gives meaning to them and that formulates a thought. A thought functions only as a fragmentary part in the formulation of an idea  (Idea Quotes) Most creatures have a vague belief that a very precarious hazard, a kind of transparent membrane, divides death from love; and that the profound idea of nature demands that the giver of life should die at the moment of giving  (Idea Quotes) It is extremely natural for us to desire to see such our thoughts put into the dress of words, without which indeed we can scarce have a clear and distinct idea of them our selves  (Idea Quotes) While we are young the idea of death or failure is intolerable to us; even the possibility of ridicule we cannot bear  (Idea Quotes) At first he was very discouraging, to my astonishment then, but now I fancy he did it as a forlorn hope to check me; he said the whole idea was so disgusting that he could not entertain it for a moment  (Idea Quotes) The human mind likes a strange idea as little as the body likes a strange protein and resists it with a similar energy  (Idea Quotes) I sang in the coffee houses... in the early 60’s with no idea of success in terms of records or television. I just thought I was a storyteller. I had this deep, bassy voice. But I had incredible passion for the music I was singing  (Idea Quotes) It seems almost incredible that the advocates of liberty should conceive of the idea of selling a fellow creature to slavery  (Idea Quotes) The people who say you are not facing reality actually mean that you are not facing their idea of reality  (Idea Quotes) I don’t know where it’s all going to lead. I have no idea where I’m going. I would just like to be happy  (Idea Quotes) I waited for the idea to consolidate, for the grouping and composition of themes to settle themselves in my brain  (Idea Quotes) In science, the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not to the man to whom the idea first occurs  (Idea Quotes) When you’re free from the idea of doership then something else within you emerges. It is yourself  (Idea Quotes) We were raised with the idea that we had limitless chances and we got very shocked to learn that wasn’t the case  (Idea Quotes) To see itself through, music must have idea or magic.... Music with neither dies young though rich  (Idea Quotes) Style ain’t nothing but keeping the same idea from beginning to end. Everybody got it  (Idea Quotes) And what is an authentic madman? It is a man who preferred to become mad, in the socially accepted sense of the word, rather than forfeit a certain superior idea of human honor. So society has strangled in its asylums all those it wanted to get rid of or protect itself from, because they refused to become its accomplices in certain great nastinesses. For a madman is also a man whom society did not want to hear and whom it wanted to prevent from uttering certain intolerable truths  (Idea Quotes) However fiercely opposed one may be to the present order, an old respect for the idea of order itself often prevents people from distinguishing between order and those who stand for order, and leads them in practice to respect individuals under the pretext of respecting order itself  (Idea Quotes) A new vision and understanding of something demands a new way of talking about it, for the old terminology gets in the way of this effort. Stubbornly entrenched behind the words coined by a particular conceptual orientation are its secrete prejudices. Any attempt to open out an adequately human vista onto the phenomena of undisturbed existence must include a critique of the most important idea of traditional biology, physiology, and psychology  (Idea Quotes) Creativity is essentially a lonely art. An even lonelier struggle. To some a blessing. To others a curse. It is in reality the ability to reach inside yourself and drag forth from your very soul an idea  (Idea Quotes) A college education should equip one to entertain three things: a friend, an idea and oneself  (Idea Quotes) It’s very good for an idea to be commonplace. The important thing is that a new idea should develop out of what is already there so that it soon becomes an old acquaintance. Old acquaintances aren’t by any means always welcome, but at least one can’t be mistaken as to who or what they are  (Idea Quotes)
