Idea Quotes

To get rich, one must have but a single idea, one fixed, hard, immutable thought: the desire to make a heap of gold. And in order to increase this heap of gold, one must be inflexible, a usurer, thief, extortionist, and murderer! And one must especially mistreat the small and the weak! And when this mountain of gold has been amassed, one can climb up on it, and from up on the summit, a smile on one’s lips, one can contemplate the valley of poor wretches that one has created Picture Quote #1

I choose color on the spur of the moment. People ask me why I paint in red. I do not have the slightest idea. I was painting in blue, then I had a need to paint in red. To be able to interact with the medium, this is the key. There are no sure ways to do art Picture Quote #1

If people go into music with the idea of competing with other artists, then they’re doing it for all the wrong reasons Picture Quote #1

I always say the first sign of a good idea is a lot of people not believing in it. I can tell you this right now, if you have an idea that makes complete logical sense and people don’t believe in it, then you probably have a brilliant idea Picture Quote #1

The practice is enlightenment. Some people find this idea not to their liking. They want to get enlightenment in a flash. This way they become attached to something that doesn’t exist. Enlightenment isn’t a thing you get Picture Quote #1

This idea of helping the next generation is a very intrinsic part of photojournalism. We need to continue to build this new group of photographers that come in and tell these stories Picture Quote #1

I went back and listened to the first three albums I made and tried to figure out what was special about them, why people keep going back to them. I think it was because I didn’t know what I was doing. I had no idea if they were going to play it on the radio or anything. All I did was write songs, so that’s what I got back to Picture Quote #1

It takes 50 years to get a wrong idea out of medicine, and 100 years a right one into medicine Picture Quote #1

My idea of a good hit is when the victim wakes up on the sidelines with train whistles blowing in his head... I like to believe that my best hits border on felonious assault Picture Quote #1

I’m often daydreaming, and it’s because I’ve always liked the idea of there being something more than the normal world Picture Quote #1

In early historical civilization, lunar symbols wove together three major metaphorical concepts. The first is the idea of fertility. The moon controls the tides of both water and blood – the sacred fluids of the early religions. The second is the concept of periodic rebirth, symbolized by the moon’s monthly waning and renewal. The third is the notion of continually repeating cycles of change Picture Quote #1

If evolution was worth its salt, by now it should’ve evolved something better than survival of the fittest. I think a better idea would be survival of the wittiest Picture Quote #1

People who look down never get much of an idea of the sky where the stars are set. And the fellow who doesn’t hitch at least one or two of his wagons to a star never gets very high up. Get your eyes off the ground. Look ahead Picture Quote #1

I absolutely hate clothes shopping, though I love clothes. It’s my idea of heaven to be handed things to wear Picture Quote #1

Why would anyone get married and have babies? That’s the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard in my life. Or the scariest thing I’ve ever heard in my life Picture Quote #1

The most successful classes are those where the teacher has a clear idea of what is expected from the students and the students know what the teacher expects from them Picture Quote #1

We’re in the age of the idea. The organization that can develop a culture of creativity and idea generation will be the winners Picture Quote #1

Although we know nothing of what an atom is, yet we cannot resist forming some idea of a small particle, which represents it to the mind... there is an immensity of facts which justify us in believing that the atoms of matter are in some way endowed or associated with electrical powers, to which they owe their most striking qualities, and amongst them their mutual chemical affinity Picture Quote #1

Since stars appear to be suns, and suns, according to the common opinion, are bodies that serve to enlighten, warm, and sustain a system of planets, we may have an idea of the numberless globes that serve for the habitaton of living creatures Picture Quote #1

Unless people can see broad vistas of unused resources in front of them, the belief in limited resources tends to follow as a matter of course. And if the idea is accepted that the world’s resources are fixed, then each person is ultimately the enemy of every other person, and each race or nation is the enemy of every other race or nation. The extreme result is tyranny, war and even genocide. Only in a universe of unlimited resources can all men be brothers Picture Quote #1

It’s a funny thing about writing. You get so balled up in a story idea that you lose your perspective and forget that human being might read your words someday Picture Quote #1

There is no future in which bits will be harder to copy than they are today... Any business model that based on the idea that bits will be harder to copy is doomed Picture Quote #1

I once had an editor advise me, as I was revising one of my early novels, to add more characters. I played around with the idea. As soon as I’d decided a few fresh faces and give them something to do, I realized that what my editor had really asked for was more plot. Ding. More characters equals more action Picture Quote #1

In the early days, I had very little idea about arrangements, and I wrote songs a little flat, as it were, just on an acoustic guitar. They didn’t really have quite enough nuance Picture Quote #1

People are always selling the idea that people with mental illness are suffering. I think madness can be an escape. If things are not so good, you maybe want to imagine something better Picture Quote #1

My idea of a vacation is staying home and doing short day hikes, floating the river and things like that Picture Quote #1

I have no idea what my persona would be. As far as I’m concerned, I’m changing all the time Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that the flesh is necessarily treacherous, evil, bad. It is cantankerous, and it is independent. The idea of independence is the key. It really is like colonialism. The colonies suddenly decide that they can and should exist with their own personality and should detach from the control of the mother country. At first the colony is perceived as being treacherous. It’s a betrayal. Ultimately, it can be seen as the separation of a partner that could be very valuable as an equal rather than as something you dominate Picture Quote #1

If religion has given birth to all that is essential in society, it is because the idea of society is the soul of religion Picture Quote #1

I want another idea, another project, but you can’t make them up. They show up Picture Quote #1
