Ideas Quotes

I am only interested in the ideas that become obsessive and make me feel uneasy. The ideas that I’m afraid of Picture Quote #1

I have very intense conversations with friends, people I really interconnect with. We talk about politics, important things. I like to talk about ideas and get people to be specific Picture Quote #1

I’ve never been one who enjoys maintaining the status quo. I’m always pushing for new ideas, whether it’s in business or philanthropy Picture Quote #1

Satire must always accompany any free society. It is an absolute necessity. Even in the most repressive medieval kingdoms, they understood the need for the court jester, the one soul allowed to tell the truth through laughter. It is, in many ways, the most powerful form of free speech because it is aimed at those in power, or those whose ideas would spread hate. It is the canary in the coalmine, a cultural thermometer, and it always has to push, push, push the boundaries of society to see how much it’s grown Picture Quote #1

The world is too big and too intricate to conform to our ideas of what it should be like... Just because we invent myths and theories to explain away the chaos we’re still going to live in a world that’s older and more complicated than we’ll ever understand Picture Quote #1

I love meeting fans. They’re always fun, they always have good things to say, smart questions to ask, and plenty of ideas for me to explore in the future Picture Quote #1

I think part of the fun of being an actor is getting to work with different directors and seeing their take on it, what they’re passionate about. They all have different ideas about your character Picture Quote #1

A lot of people don’t give much thought to what they believe, and it’s easy for them to hold what often are two conflicting ideas in their head at the same time Picture Quote #1

It is true that of far the greater part of things, we must content ourselves with such knowledge as description may exhibit, or analogy supply; but it is true likewise, that these ideas are always incomplete, and that at least, till we have compared them with realities, we do not know them to be just. As we see more, we become possessed of more certainties, and consequently gain more principles of reasoning, and found a wider base of analogy Picture Quote #1

To go within doesn’t mean to become enraptured with who you are, or to become enraptured with ideas of who you are Picture Quote #1

We live inside too much. We live inside and we have square thoughts and square ideas because we live in square houses. Our lives are colored by our environments. Our attention fields are colored by it Picture Quote #1

It’s easy to tell the evolutionary level of a group of beings, or an individual being, simply by examining their behavior, their art, their psychology, their thought forms, their lingual structures, their history, their present moment, their future ideas, and the quality of their emotions Picture Quote #1

In this world we see nothing but diversity. Everyone thinks separate ideas and wants to develop a separate identity. They fight wars with each other. They destroy each other’s identities Picture Quote #1

Most of the characteristics which make for success in writing are precisely those which we are all taught to repress... the firm belief that you are an important person, that you are a lot smarter than most people, and that your ideas are so damned important that everybody should listen to you Picture Quote #1

My novels are high concept. I guess big ideas interest me more than, say, the minutiae of domestic life Picture Quote #1

When I turned to writing fantasy, and writing for young people, it was joyous. It was like discovering an underground lake of ideas that went on forever Picture Quote #1

I’ve never really had any trouble coming up with ideas; they just grow, like weeds. The weeding is the hard part Picture Quote #1

It’s nice to be in a place where I can be a little more selective, and to be sought out for ideas that I have Picture Quote #1

There are times when I want to be plainspoken about my feelings in a song. But there are other times when it’s really good to try and get my head around different kinds of song structures, or maybe I might get turned on by trying to write a song that would fit in this one scene in a movie. And by the end of all this, you just end up with a bunch of different ideas. And songs are really just ideas Picture Quote #1

When we are very young children we know how to feel. It’s innate. But as we lead a lifetime, we pick up so many thoughts, impressions, feelings, and ideas, that our sensitivity goes away Picture Quote #1

You’re much too hung up on all of your ideas and your desires. You still have not penetrated the essence of yoga Picture Quote #1

If you write, good ideas must come welling up into you so that you have something to write. If good ideas do not come at once, or for a long time, do not be troubled at all. Wait for them. Put down little ideas no matter how insignificant they are. But do not feel, any more, guilty about idleness and solitude Picture Quote #1

Ideas come when we do not expect them, and not when we are brooding and searching at our desks. Yet ideas would certainly not come to mind had we not brooded at our desks and searched for answers with passionate devotion Picture Quote #1

It’s very dangerous to invent something in our times; ostentatious men of the other world, who are hostile to innovations, roam about angrily. To live in peace, one has to stay away from innovations and new ideas. Innovations, like trees, attract the most destructive lightnings to themselves Picture Quote #1

There must be a marsh in the brains of these men or there would not be so many frogs of wrong ideas gathered in their heads Picture Quote #1

I work, and then I leave the office, and I’m with my kids and just sort of enjoy them on a visceral level, and I don’t feel like I’m exorcising my own deep ideas about parenthood and about how my life will come into play in my work Picture Quote #1

I’ve spent various periods of my career being thought of as various things, various degrees of substance and ideas Picture Quote #1

All you need do is listen to very smart people and sift out the ideas that are unworthy or implausible, and I wouldn’t pretend for a moment that I hadn’t made lots of mistakes and there are companies, perhaps, that we had been investors in Picture Quote #1

Any man who afflicts the human race with ideas must be prepare to see them misunderstood Picture Quote #1
