Inquiry Quotes

It is essential to the pure and peaceful administration of justice that all its officers keep carefully within the boundaries of their constitutional powers.

We think ourselves possessed, or, at least, we boast that we are so, of liberty of conscience on all subjects, and of the right of free inquiry and private judgment in all cases, and yet how far are we from these exalted privileges in fact! Picture Quote #1

The man who has honesty, integrity, the love of inquiry, the desire to see beyond, is ready to appreciate good art Picture Quote #1

Story-tellers should listen seriously to design and architecture without getting all literary and imperial about that. Hackers are arrogant geek romantics. They lack the attentive spirit of inquiry Picture Quote #1

In an honest effort to gain understanding, asking questions do not, necessarily, imply a conclusion has been determined. They can be used to avoid making the wrong judgement. If building trust is the ultimate goal - there is no need to be defensive, or feel threatened by any inquiry Picture Quote #1

Economics should be defined in terms of what it is about. It should be about how people produce things, how people exchange them, how people earn income, how they pay taxes, how the government provides infrastructure with tax revenue, and how it conducts monetary policy. The subject has to be defined in terms of the object of inquiry Picture Quote #1

A university’s essential character is that of being a center of free inquiry and criticism - a thing not to be sacrificed for anything else Picture Quote #1

The feeling of being interested can act as a kind of neurological signal, directing us to fruitful areas of inquiry Picture Quote #1

Direct the glance of apprehension and inquiry to pure consciousness, in its own absolute Being Picture Quote #1

Skepticism is essential to the quest for knowledge, for it is in the seedbed of puzzlement that genuine inquiry takes root. Without skepticism, we may remain mired in unexamined belief systems that are accepted as sacrosanct yet have no factual basis in reality Picture Quote #1

Some people read business books looking for confirmation. I read them in search of disquiet. Confirmation is cheap, easy and ineffective. Restlessness and the scientific method, on the other hand, create a culture of testing and inquiry that can’t help but push you forward Picture Quote #1

What, of course, we want in a university is for people to learn the skills they’re going to need outside the classroom. So, having a system that had more emphasis on inquiry and exploration but also on learning and practising specific skills would fit much better with how we know people learn Picture Quote #1

College campuses have become fascist colonies of anti-American hate speech, hypersensitivity, speech codes, banded words and prohibited scientific inquiry Picture Quote #1

Faith is a personal matter, and should never be a cudgel to stifle inquiry. We tried that approach about 1,200 years ago. The experiment was called the Dark Ages Picture Quote #1

Something very worrying has been going on at Scotland Yard. We now know that in dealing with the phone-hacking affair at the ‘News of the World,’ they cut short their original inquiry; suppressed evidence; misled the public and the press; concealed information and broke the law. Why? Picture Quote #1

No doubt metaphors are dangerous- and perhaps especially so in philosophy. But a prohibition against their use would be a willful and harmful restriction upon our powers of inquiry Picture Quote #1

It’s true that if you advise politicians on economic policy in the U.S. today, you spend your time in a cross between inquiry and combat. You are always on the periphery of harsh partisan warfare that has nothing to do with substance Picture Quote #1

Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model Picture Quote #1

One goal of ethical inquiry might be to uncover strategies available for use when values conflict or when rules are incomplete Picture Quote #1

With inquiry, every painful story unravels. Freedom is possible in every moment Picture Quote #1

To those searching for truth -- not the truth of dogma and darkness but the truth brought by reason, search, examination, and inquiry, discipline is required. For faith, as well intentioned as it may be, must be built on facts, not fiction -- faith in fiction is a damnable false hope Picture Quote #1

I began to ask two questions while I was reading a book that excited me: not only what was going to happen next, but how is this done? How is it that these words on the page make me feel the way I’m feeling? This is the line of inquiry that I think happens in a child’s mind, without him even knowing he has aspirations as a writer Picture Quote #1

The field of the Geologist’s inquiry is the Globe itself, ... [and] it is his study to decipher the monuments of the mighty revolutions and convulsions it has suffered Picture Quote #1

Seeking is a necessary preliminary to finding, and one who cannot endure the hardship of inquiry cannot expect to harvest the fruit of knowledge Picture Quote #1

We will that all men know we blame not all the lords, nor all those that are about the king’s person, nor all gentlemen nor yeomen, nor all men of law, nor all bishops, nor all priests, but all such as may be found guilty by just and true inquiry and by the law Picture Quote #1

Many scientists think that philosophy has no place, so for me it’s a sad time because the role of reflection, contemplation, meditation, self inquiry, insight, intuition, imagination, creativity, free will, is in a way not given any importance, which is the domain of philosophers Picture Quote #1

There is no thought or situation that you can’t put up against inquiry. Every thought, every person, every apparent problem is here for the sake of your freedom Picture Quote #1

Every science and every inquiry, and similarly every activity and pursuit, is thought to aim at some good Picture Quote #1

Out-of-whack emotions are always a good beginning point for identifying beliefs that aren’t really true, an easy red flag for our inquiry. Exaggerated emotions of anxiety or discouragement invite us to trace them back to the thoughts that are creating them Picture Quote #1

I appear as a skeptic, who believes that doubt is the great engine, the great fuel of all inquiry, all discovery and all innovation Picture Quote #1
