Idea Quotes

To me, I took a militant attitude towards sounds. I wanted sounds to be a metaphor, that they could be as free as a human being might be free. That was my idea about sound. It still is, that they should breathe... not to be used for the vested interest of an idea. I feel that music should have no vested interests, that you shouldn’t know how it’s made, that you shouldn’t know if there’s a system, that you shouldn’t know anything about it... except that it’s some kind of life force that to some degree really changes your life... if you’re into it Picture Quote #1

Just because there’s a trillion places to put an idea doesn’t mean you don’t need an idea in the first place Picture Quote #1

My best idea was to not accept my wife’s negative reaction when I asked her to marry me Picture Quote #1

Freedom, liberty, individual rights, that idea of dealing with other people in a matter that is not initiating force against them, is critical to me Picture Quote #1

The old idea is that when tragedy strikes or when an obstacle blocks us, there are only two possibilities. We either become a smaller person or we become a bigger person. If it’s a real life change you cannot come out the same. So therefore, you’re either going to come out smaller or you’re going to rise up and ultimately come out of it a bigger person Picture Quote #1

Because having your story told, as a woman, as a person of color, as a lesbian or as a trans person, or as any member of any disenfranchised community... is sadly often still a radical idea. There is so much power in storytelling and there is enormous power in inclusive storytelling and inclusive representations Picture Quote #1

I want less and less control with music. Just playing music without any idea of composition or writing Picture Quote #1

I liked this idea: that peculiarness wasn’t a deficiency, but an abundance; that it wasn’t we who lacked something normals had, but they who lacked peculiarness. That we were more, not less Picture Quote #1

Philip says to fear me. Do you have any idea how afraid I am of him? Picture Quote #1

Magnetic lines of force convey a far better and purer idea than the phrase magnetic current or magnetic flood: it avoids the assumption of a current or of two currents and also of fluids or a fluid, yet conveys a full and useful pictorial idea to the mind Picture Quote #1

People are impatient. They want things to happen overnight, and have no idea of the circumstances and situations that can surround an individual at times Picture Quote #1

The worst thing is to feel that as a photographer I’m benefiting from someone else’s tragedy. This idea haunts me. It’s something I have to reckon with every day, because I know that if I ever allow genuine compassion to be overtaken by personal ambition, I will have sold my soul. The only way I can justify my role is to have respect for the other person’s predicament. The extent to which I do that is the extent to which I become accepted by the other and to that extent I can accept myself Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been fascinated by the idea that there’s no such thing as evil; it’s all in your point of view. To one group a suicide bomber is the antichrist and to one he’s a hero Picture Quote #1

People have the idea that an image must stand for something else, that the real meaning needs to be described with language. Instead it is the image itself that is the meaning Picture Quote #1

A human group transforms itself into a crowd when it suddenly responds to a suggestion rather than to reasoning, to an image rather than to an idea, to an affirmation rather than to proof, to the repetition of a phrase rather than to arguments, to prestige rather than to competence Picture Quote #1

So for every day that you’re on this earth, for every minute that you have, the whole idea is doing nothing less than exactly what you feel you’re supposed to do and squeezing every last drop out of life every day, regardless of the difficulties or trials that you face Picture Quote #1

Often, when you’ve reached a very high level of achievement, you almost become paralyzed by the idea that anything you might do might be imperfect. Perfection is just the striving, the effort, the struggle, but it’s hard to remember that Picture Quote #1

I find it very fascinating that one person or a group of people can get together as a choir and come up with a song that ends up inspiring people to create emotions, love and togetherness. Communication, which comes from this idea that sparks off of humanity and becomes something that is cherished and loved by the people, is very fascinating to me Picture Quote #1

My father belonged to a commune, and the food was ghastly. My idea of food hell is the salad cream they’d pour all over bits of lettuce, cucumber and tomato. It was just disgusting Picture Quote #1

True creative cities produce the legacy of an idea that does what funding cannot do: to foster Picture Quote #1

The reason I call myself a documentary photographer is the idea of how photographs contain and participate in history Picture Quote #1

Knowing where you have come from is important in forming an idea of where you want to go Picture Quote #1

We were happy a hundred years ago. We knew that there were exploiters and exploited, wealthy and poor, and we had a perfect idea of how to get rid of injustice; we would expropriate the owners and turn the wealth over to the common good. We expropriated the owners and we created one of the most monstrous and oppressive social systems in world history. And we keep repeating that in principle everything was all right, only some unfortunate accidents slipped in and slightly spoiled the good idea. Now let us start afresh Picture Quote #1

I misdirect the audience, so they have no idea where they are or who they’re listening to Picture Quote #1

It just happens to be that people like to associate poetry and rap music. I think that idea is kind of corny Picture Quote #1

Just heard who made who by ac/dc and asked a ry what movie? He had no idea. Disappointed. He will be doing my laundry today Picture Quote #1

I saw her backstage and said hi, took a picture with her. Tried to get a convo going, but the kid had know idea wut to think! Picture Quote #1

I wanted to explore cancer not just biologically, but metaphorically. The idea that tuberculosis in the 19th century possessed the same kind of frightening and decaying quality was very interesting to me, and it seemed that one could explore the idea that every age defined its own illness Picture Quote #1

The downside of skepticism: it can easily turn into an arrogant position of a priori rejection of any new phenomenon or idea, a position that is as lacking in critical thinking as the one of the true believer, and that simply does not help either science or the public at large Picture Quote #1

The authentic thing is to follow your heart, your instincts, your emotions. If you located yourself in an idea, your life would be lived very sadly Picture Quote #1
