Meaning Quotes

Love is our only weapon. Only love can turn mere life into a miracle, and draw precious meaning from suffering and fear Picture Quote #1

It is a funny thing what the brain will do with memories and how it will treasure them and finally bring them into odd juxtapositions with other things, as though it wanted to make a design, or get some meaning out of them, whether you want it or not, or even see it Picture Quote #1

I think jeans have gotten away from the original meaning, that symbol of freedom; they’ve gone gimmicky and turned into a status item. Our denim is offered at lower price points for that reason. As far as the men’s clothing in the collection, it’s basically my wardrobe. I think men’s clothes should be grounded, strong and classic. I like simple: a blazer, jeans, a low cut tee and maybe a silk scarf Picture Quote #1

I never dreamt of being a musician for my livelihood. I certainly never would have wanted to be in the business that I’m in, meaning the fame and the glory, the glitter, the rock star, the famous part Picture Quote #1

I see myself as a man who is searching for meaning in life. This is rather different from being a staunch believer in something. A believer is someone who senses a consciousness or a direction and believes in it. The one who searches for meaning has not found the direction yet Picture Quote #1

I shall always be grateful for this curious love of history, allowing me to spend a lifetime looking back into the past, allowing me to learn from these large figures about the struggle for meaning for life Picture Quote #1

The man who sees absolutes, where all other men see nuances and shades of meaning, is either a prophet, or a quack Picture Quote #1

Emotional and psychological pain were to become, perhaps, the most powerful force in molding the course of my life. For some people, pain and hurt breed bitterness and cynicism. For others it causes them to look deeply into themselves and into life itself in an attempt to understand the meaning beneath seemingly capricious or arbitrary happenings Picture Quote #1

I once spoke to a human geneticist who declared that the notion of intelligence was quite meaningless, so I tried calling him unintelligent. He was annoyed, and it did not appease him when I went on to ask how he came to attach such a clear meaning to the notion of lack of intelligence. We never spoke again Picture Quote #1

Could we say that the short short is to other kinds of fiction somewhat as the lyric is to other kinds of poetry? The lyric does not seek meaning through extension, it accepts the enigmas of confinement. It strives for a rapid unity of impression, an experience rendered in its wink of immediacy. And so too with the short short Picture Quote #1

I guess I’m attracted to more archaic words because they can be imbued with more meaning, because their definition is elusive Picture Quote #1

I never liked the idea of giving interviews. One says many things, but when they are published, they become shortened, condensed. The ideas lose their meaning Picture Quote #1

I aim to be translucent, so you don’t notice the words, just their meaning. I haven’t much insight into people’s motivations Picture Quote #1

Writing and creating, those things come to me on their own. I feel like... you sort of summon them and it’s like allowing the universe to enter your heart in an entirely different way to what it normally does. It’s like inviting that energy of the universe to enter into your craft in a way where it has a meaning Picture Quote #1

When I make a film, I never stop uncovering mysteries, making discoveries. When I’m writing, filming, editing, even doing promotional work, I discover new things about the film, about myself, and about others. That is what I’m subconsciously looking for when shooting a film: to glimpse the enigmas of life, even if I don’t resolve them, but at least to uncover them. Cinema is curiosity in the most intense meaning of the word Picture Quote #1

If a specific question has meaning, it must be possible to find operations by which an answer may be given to it... I believe that many of the questions asked about social and philosophical subjects will be found to be meaningless when examined from the point of view of operations Picture Quote #1

Trying to express implicit and fuzzy relationships in ways that are explicit and sharp doesn’t clarify the meaning, it destroys it Picture Quote #1

I need a lover that won’t drive me crazy, someone that knows the meaning of hey, hit the highway Picture Quote #1

I give culture this meaning: exercise of thought, acquisition of general ideas, habit of connecting causes and effects... I believe that it means thinking well, whatever one thinks, and therefore acting well, whatever one does Picture Quote #1

The process that I want to call scientific is a process that involves the continual apprehension of meaning, the constant appraisal of significance accompanied by a running act of checking to be sure that I am doing what I want to do, and of judging correctness or incorrectness. This checking and judging and accepting, that together constitute understanding, are done by me and can be done for me by no one else. They are as private as my toothache, and without them science is dead Picture Quote #1

Why should people be expected to think about the meaning of life merely because they happen to be ill? That is just the time when there is no time to think about such things, because the body is so greedy for attention Picture Quote #1

If you could envision... the meaning of a tragedy... you might be surprised to hear, its you and me Picture Quote #1

I will say that comic books are not the easiest things to translate to film, number one. Even the most well meaning of filmmakers find what’s acceptable on the printed page is very difficult to bring to film Picture Quote #1

Grammar is what gives sense to language... sentences make words yield up their meaning. Sentences actively create sense in language. And the business of the study of sentences is grammar Picture Quote #1

The advantage of the gypsy language, even though I don’t understand it that much, the language is perfect melody. So if you propose the movie the way I do, then the language is just one part of the melody. Orchestrating all inside, and the language is following the meaning of what they say, and it’s never the same as written Picture Quote #1

Nourishing spirituality means cultivating the inward space, the basis of which all things can be brought together. It means overwhelming deadness and stagnation and living reality in terms of values, inspiration, and symbols of higher meaning Picture Quote #1

Before the people at large, and for that matter, the artists themselves, understand what photography really means, as I understand that term, it is essential for them to be taught the real meaning of art Picture Quote #1

The meaning... of a writer will be found not just in what he intends to say, or what he does literally say, but in the effect of his writing on living beings Picture Quote #1

Right and wrong are concepts that only have meaning in this world, so by sorting existence on those characteristics, we are defining ourselves to exist only in this world Picture Quote #1

Life has no meaning. It doesn’t need a meaning. A meaning is an arbitrary thought formulation that we affix to it because we are in the mood. Life is its own raison d’etre Picture Quote #1
