Text Quotes
There can be no better measure of our governance than the way we treat our children, and no greater failing on our part than to allow them to be subjected to violence, abuse or exploitation  (Measure Quotes) A society committed to the search for truth must give protection to, and set a high value upon, the independent and original mind, however angular, however rasping, however socially unpleasant it may be; for it is upon such minds, in large measure, that the effective search for truth depends  (Measure Quotes) Change is a measure of time and, in the autumn, time seems speeded up. What was is not and never again will be; what is is change  (Measure Quotes) Water is the most critical resource issue of our lifetime and our children’s lifetime. The health of our waters is the principal measure of how we live on the land  (Measure Quotes) The health of our waters is the principle measure of how we live on the land  (Measure Quotes) When we become more fully aware that our success is due in large measure to the loyalty, helpfulness, and encouragement we have received from others, our desire grows to pass on similar gifts. Gratitude spurs us on to prove ourselves worthy of what others have done for us. The spirit of gratitude is a powerful energizer  (Measure Quotes) Overcome any bitterness that may have come because you were not up to the magnitude of the pain entrusted to you. Like the mother of the world who carries the pain of the world in her heart, you are sharing in a certain measure of that cosmic pain, and are called upon to meet it in joy instead of self pity  (Measure Quotes) EBay’s business is based on enabling someone to do business with another person, and to do that, they first have to develop some measure of trust, either in the other person or the system  (Measure Quotes) Do not confuse notoriety and fame with greatness... For you see, greatness is a measure of one’s spirit, not a result of one’s rank in human affairs  (Measure Quotes) Our purpose is to be able to measure the intellectual capacity of a child who is brought to us in order to know whether he is normal or retarded... We do not attempt to establish or prepare a prognosis and we leave unanswered the question of whether this retardation is curable, or even improveable. We shall limit ourselves to ascertaining the truth in regard to his present mental state  (Measure Quotes) The boomers will eventually have to accept that it is not possible to stay young forever or to stop aging. But it is possible by committing to show up for each others in community after community, to earn a measure of immortality  (Measure Quotes) When test scores go up, we should worry, because of how poor a measure they are of what matters, and what you typically sacrifice in a desperate effort to raise scores  (Measure Quotes) It is the sign of a great mind to dislike greatness, and prefer things in measure to things in excess  (Measure Quotes) Now intelligence seemed quantifiable. You could measure someone’s actual or potential height, and now, it seemed, you could also measure someone’s actual or potential intelligence. We had one dimension of mental ability along which we could array everyone... The whole concept has to be challenged; in fact, it has to be replaced  (Measure Quotes) People who create things nowadays can expect to be prosecuted by highly moralistic people who are incapable of creating anything. There is no way to measure the chilling effect on innovation that results from the threats of taxation, regulation and prosecution against anything that succeeds. We’ll never know how many ideas our government has aborted in the name protecting us  (Measure Quotes) We are apt to think we know what time is because we can measure it, but no sooner do we reflect upon it than that illusion goes. So it appears that the range of the measureable is not the range of the knowable. There are things we can measure, like time, but yet our minds do not grasp their meaning. There are things we cannot measure, like happiness or pain, and yet their meaning is perfectly clear to us  (Measure Quotes) But, because my private lectures and domestic pupils are a great hinderance and intteruption of my studies, I wish to live entirely exempt from the former, and in great measure from the latter... in short, I should wish to gain my bread from my writings  (Measure Quotes) A people may become great through many means, but there is only one measure by which its greatness is recognized and acknowledged. The final measure of the greatness of all peoples is the amount and standard of the literature and art they have produced... No people that has produced great literature and art has ever been looked upon by the world as distinctly inferior  (Measure Quotes) You, and you alone, are the person who should take the measure of your own success... I do not try to be better than anyone else. I only try to be better than myself  (Measure Quotes) Great advantage is drawn from knowledge of your adversary, and when you know the measure of his intelligence and character, you can use it to play on his weakness  (Measure Quotes) You can’t measure success if you have never failed. My father has taught me that if you really do want to reach your goals, you can’t spend any time worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose. Focus only on getting better  (Measure Quotes) In the morning was again distressed as soon as I waked, hearing much talk about the world and the things of it. I perceived the men were in some measure afraid of me; and I discoursed something about sanctifying the sabbath, if possible to solemnize their minds: but when they were at a little distance, they again talked freely about secular affairs. Oh, I thought what a hell it would be, to live with such men to eternity!  (Measure Quotes) It is often better to be restricted to necessity than unconfined in the measure of our desires: prosperity destroys more individuals than adversity ruins  (Measure Quotes) Proper respect to others is the most prudent rule of directing the measure of reverence due to ourselves  (Measure Quotes) You only fail if you don’t finish the game. If you finish you win. You have to measure what you started out with by what you overcome  (Measure Quotes) Life is the acceptance of responsibilities or their evasion; it is a business of meeting obligations or avoiding them. To every man the choice is continually being offered, and by the manner of his choosing you may fairly measure him  (Measure Quotes) We do not live in a time when knowledge can be extended along a pathway smooth and free from obstacles, as at the time of the discovery of the infinitesimal calculus, and in a measure also when in the development of projective geometry obstacles were suddenly removed which, having hemmed progress for a long time, permitted a stream of investigators to pour in upon virgin soil. There is no longer any browsing along the beaten paths; and into the primeval forest only those may venture who are equipped with the sharpest tools  (Measure Quotes) Everyone experiences tough times, it is a measure of your determination and dedication how you deal with them and how you can come through them  (Measure Quotes) It is evident, therefore, that one of the most fundamental problems of psychology is that of investigating the laws of mental growth. When these laws are known, the door of the future will in a measure be opened; determination of the child’s present status will enable us to forecast what manner of adult he will become  (Measure Quotes) I have a deep respect and love for these tiny humans, and I hope to convey in my images a measure of the beauty that exists in all children  (Measure Quotes)
