Text Quotes
One of the sources of pride in being a human being is the ability to bear present frustrations in the interests of longer purposes  (Interests Quotes) Men are not narrow in their intellectual interests by nature; it takes special and rigorous training to accomplish that end  (Interests Quotes) I have a cause higher and nobler than my own, a cause to which all private interests and concerns must be subordinated  (Interests Quotes) Somehow it must be made plain that the lawyer’s moral judgment is not for hire, that there are occasions when the lawyer... is under a duty to act as a person of independent ethical concern with obligations not only to his client’s interests but also to fairness and justice in the management of affairs  (Interests Quotes) Humans are ambitious and rational and proud. And we don’t fall in line with people who don’t respect us and who we don’t believe have our best interests at heart. We are willing to follow leaders, but only to the extent that we believe they call on our best, not our worst  (Interests Quotes) We are raising a generation that has a woefully small stock of ideas and interests and emotions. It must be amused at all costs but it has little skill in amusing itself. It pays some of its members to do what the majority can no longer do for themselves. It is this inner poverty that makes for the worst kind of boredom  (Interests Quotes) The spectacle of a judge pouring over the picture of some nude, trying to ascertain the extent to which she arouses prurient interests, and then attempting to write an opinion which explains the difference between that nude and some other nude has elements of low comedy  (Interests Quotes) I’m not interested in living in a fantasy world... All my work is still meant to evoke real architectural spaces. But what interests me is what the world would be like if we were free of conventional limits. Maybe I can show what could happen if we lived by a different set of rules  (Interests Quotes) What interests me about fiction is, in part, its flickering edge between realism and where a tear in the fabric of a story lets in some other sort of light  (Interests Quotes) The interests of the deaf child and his parents may best be served by accepting that he is a deaf person, with an elaborate cultural and linguistic heritage that can enrich his parent’s life as it will his own  (Interests Quotes) Education is a task for both parents and state. The state, parents, and children all have interests that must be protected  (Interests Quotes) One the one hand, our economists treat human beings as rational actors making choices to maximize their own economic benefit. On the other hand, the same companies that hire those economists also pay for advertising campaigns that use the raw materials of myth and magic to encourage people to act against their own best interests, whether it’s a matter of buying overpriced fizzy sugar water or the much more serious matter of continuing to support the unthinking pursuit of business as usual in the teeth of approaching disaster  (Interests Quotes) Corporate governance is concerned with holding the balance between economic and social goals and between individual and communal goals. The governance framework is there to encourage the efficient use of resources and equally to require accountability for the stewardship of those resources. The aim is to align as nearly as possible the interests of individuals, corporations and society  (Interests Quotes) Ideas do have consequences in history, yet not because those ideas are inherently truthful or obviously correct but rather because of the way they are embedded in very powerful institutions, networks, interests, and symbols  (Interests Quotes) The political satirist usually votes against their own interests, but the bottom line is that it doesn’t really matter  (Interests Quotes) Patriarchy is not men. Patriarchy is a system in which both women and men participate. It privileges, inter alia, the interests of boys and men over the bodily integrity, autonomy, and dignity of girls and women. It is subtle, insidious, and never more dangerous than when women passionately deny that they themselves are engaging in it  (Interests Quotes) I didn’t expect to love being online as much as I do. I’ve met some wonderful people and discovered that however arcane some of my interests that there are people out there who are interested too  (Interests Quotes) Live your life with a purpose beyond yourself, and you’ll find that the world is as bold and broad as the interests that brought you here  (Interests Quotes) Will a guaranteed annual wage kill incentive among the poor? If a man is given a certain amount of security, won’t he quit working? Exactly the same contention could be made about the sons of the wealthy who are left large fortunes. Yet the evidence suggests that, given economic freedom, people will generally choose to do that which interests them most. It is up to society to see that these interests are widened and that too requires investment  (Interests Quotes) A nation lives forever through its concepts, honour, and culture. It is for these reasons that the rulers of nations must judge and act not only on the basis of physical and material interests of the nation but on the basis of the nation’s historical honour, of the nation’s eternal interests. Thus: not bread at all costs, but honour at all costs  (Interests Quotes) I’ve been round the world several times and now only banality still interests me  (Interests Quotes) What is necessary for the pubic realm is to shield it from the private interests which have intruded upon it in the most brutal and aggressive form  (Interests Quotes) We are always going to put the best interests of kids above the rights, privileges and priorities of adults  (Interests Quotes) We have a great obligation not only to look after our own interests, but to engage and to make sure that this meeting is at the beginning of a renaissance of trust  (Interests Quotes) Every moment of your lives you are exerting a tremendous influence, that will tell on the immortal interests of souls around you. Are you asleep, while your conduct is exerting such an influence?  (Interests Quotes) One reason why men and women lose their heads so often is that they use them so little! It is the same with everything. If we have anything that is valuable, it must be put to some sort of use. If a man’s muscles are neglected, he soon has none, or rather none worth mentioning. The more the mind is used the more flexible it becomes, and the more it takes upon itself new interests  (Interests Quotes) The principle of real leadership ignored, the immortal objects of society forgotten, practical conservatism degenerated into mere laudation of private enterprise, economic policy almost wholly surrendered to special interests  (Interests Quotes) What you want in a mentor is someone who truly cares for you and who will look after your interests and not just their own. When you do come across the right person to mentor you, start by showing them that the time they spend with you is worthwhile  (Interests Quotes) It is the obligation of every person who claims to oppose oppression to resist the oppressor by every means at his or her disposal. Not to engage in physical resistance, armed resistance to oppression, is to serve the interests of the oppressor; no more, no less. There are no exceptions to the rule, no easy out  (Interests Quotes) The best moments on earth are those during which we meditate upon heavenly things in general, when we recognize or defend the truth, that heavenly dweller and denizen. Only then do we truly live. Therefore, the essential interests of the soul require that we should oftener rise above the earth, upwards to heaven, where is our true life, our true country, which shall have no end  (Interests Quotes)
