L D Quotes

To swallow and follow, whether old doctrine or new propaganda, is a weakness still dominating the human mind Picture Quote #1

The moral duty to be expected in different ages is not a unity of standard, or of acts, but a unity of tendency... At one time the benevolent affections embrace merely the family, soon the circle expanding includes first a class, then a nation, then a coalition of nations, then all humanity and finally, it's influence is felt in the dealings of man with the animal world Picture Quote #1

Our revels now are ended. These our actors, as I foretold you, were all spirits and are melted into air, into thin air: and, like the baseless fabric of this vision, the cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces, the solemn temples, the great globe itself, yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve and, like this insubstantial pageant faded, leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep Picture Quote #1

It's not fair that women look in the mirror and feel disgust because of what society has made them believe Picture Quote #1

Over the last few hours I've allowed myself to feel defeated, and just like she said if you allow yourself to feel the way you really feel, maybe you won't be afraid of that feeling anymore Picture Quote #1

Give me my Romeo; and, when I shall die, take him and cut him out in little stars, and he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night and pay no worship to the garish sun Picture Quote #1

People assume that computers will do everything that humans do. Not good. People are different from each other and they are all really different from computers Picture Quote #1

When they say take from my body, I think I'll take from mine instead. Getting off, getting off while they're all down stairs Picture Quote #1

They that have power to hurt, and will do none, that do not do the thing they most do show, who, moving others, are themselves as stone, unmoved, cold, and to temptation slow; they rightly do inherit heaven's graces, and husband nature's riches from expense Picture Quote #1

A main cause of philosophical disease - an unbalanced diet: one nourishes one's thinking with only one kind of example Picture Quote #1

'Imagine a person whose memory could not retain what the word 'pain' meant - so that he constantly called different things by that name-but nevertheless used the word in a way fitting in with the usual symptoms and presuppositions of pain'-in short he uses it as we all do. Here I should like to say: a wheel that can be turned though nothing else moves with it, is not part of the mechanism Picture Quote #1

When you go to the movies with your whole family, it's a different experience. For some reason, it's something that you're all doing together and you take away something special in that Picture Quote #1

It is truly strange how long it takes to get to know oneself. I am now sixty two years old, yet just one moment ago I realised that I absolutely love lightly toasted bread. Simultaneously, I also realised that I loathe bread when it is heavily toasted. For almost sixty years, and quite unconsciously, I have been experiencing inner joy or total despair at my relationship with grilled bread Picture Quote #1

All desirable things... are desirable either for the pleasure inherent in themselves, or as a means to the promotion of pleasure and the prevention of pain Picture Quote #1

Money has transformed every watchdog, every independent authority. Medical doctors are increasingly gulled by the lobbying of pharmaceutical salesmen Picture Quote #1

In all intellectual debates, both sides tend to be correct in what they affirm, and wrong in what they deny Picture Quote #1

It's like a garden: Whatever you water the most will do the best. At some point, you decide whether you'll water your career or your relationship more Picture Quote #1

There is a limit to the legitimate interference of collective opinion with individual independence: and to find that limit, and maintain it against encroachment, is as indispensable to a good condition of human affairs, as protection against political despotism Picture Quote #1

Movies about space raise those questions of what we're doing here, and that inevitably introduces a spiritual dimension Picture Quote #1

I will never use a substitute for butter. Margarine is one molecule away from eating plastic. If I'm going to eat that type of food, it's going to be the real deal Picture Quote #1

Solitude in the presence of natural beauty and grandeur is the cradle of thought and aspirations which are not only good for the individual, but which society can ill do without Picture Quote #1

The difference between art about death and actual death is that one's a celebration and the other's a dull fact Picture Quote #1

Though now this grained face of mine be hid in sap consuming winter's drizzled snow, and all the conduits of my blood froze up, yet hath my night of life some memory, my wasting lamps some fading glimmer left, my dull deaf ears a little use to hear Picture Quote #1

But this rough magic there abjure; and when I have required Some heavenly music (which even now I do) To work mine end upon their senses that This airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the Earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound I'll drown my book Picture Quote #1

Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than any man in Venice: but his reasons are as two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff; you seek all day ere you find them; and when you have them, they are not worth the search Picture Quote #1

I have never met a woman who works who doesn't feel guilty. I mean we all deny it like crazy but deep down there is always that voice saying you should be at home Picture Quote #1

And you, enchantment, worthy enough a herdsman - yea, him too, that makes himself, but for our honor therein, unworthy thee - if ever henceforth thou these rural latches to his entrance open, or hoop his body more with thy embraces, I will devise a death as cruel for thee as thou art tender to't Picture Quote #1

She is a reflection of comfortable middle-class values that do not take seriously the continuing unemployment. What I particularly regret is that she does not take seriously the intellectual decline. Having given up the Empire and the mass production of industrial goods, Britain's future lay in it's scientific and artistic pre-eminence. Mrs Thatcher will be long remembered for the damage she has done Picture Quote #1

Then came the second Amsterdam discovery, although the principle was known elsewhere. Bank deposits...did not need to be left idly in the bank. They could be lent. The bank then got interest. The borrower then had a deposit that he could spend. But the original deposit still stood to the credit of the original depositor. That too could be spent. Money, spendable money, had been created. Let no one rub his or her eyes. It's still being done - every day. The creation of money by a bank is as simple as this, so simple, I've often said, that the mind is slightly repelled Picture Quote #1

No politician can praise unemployment or inflation, and there is no way of combining high employment with stable prices that does not involve some control of income and prices. Otherwise the struggle for more consumption and more income to sustain it-a struggle that modern corporations, modern unions and modern democracy all facilitate and encourage-will drive up prices. Only heavy unemployment will then temper this upward thrust. Not many wish to confront the truth that the modern economy gives a choice only between inflation, unemployment, or controls Picture Quote #1
