Text Quotes
Money has, as we know, no value in itself. It is a convenient yardstick for a large number of material values. But the health and life of an individual as well as the health of a nation cannot be measured by that yardstick. If we, entrusted with protecting and defending the health of the population, give in to a salesman’s scale of values we are lost  (Measured Quotes) Demand is best measured in terms of spending. You know, I think in traditional economics, it’s a mistake to measure it in terms of the quantity of goods  (Measured Quotes) A true preacher is best measured not by how many bouquets have been pinned on him but by how many brickbats have been pitched at him. Prophets have been on the receiving end of mud more than medals  (Measured Quotes) A brave man, a real fighter is not measured by how many times he falls, but how many times he stands up  (Measured Quotes) It’s like this: The time between having an idea and its public launch is measured in days not months, weeks not years  (Measured Quotes) Consumerism is, quite precisely, the consuming of life by the things consumed. It is living in a manner that is measured by having rather than being... and consumerism is hardly the sin of the rich. The poor, driven by discontent and envy, may be as consumed by what they do not have as the rich are consumed by what they do have. The question is not, certainly not most importantly, a question about economics. It is first and foremost a cultural and moral problem requiring a cultural and moral remedy  (Measured Quotes) Life would be stunted and narrow if we could feel no significance in the world around us beyond that which can be weighed and measured with the tools of the physicist or described by the metrical symbols of the mathematician  (Measured Quotes) The character of greatness must be measured in two ways, else the measurement is flawed. First, and by far most popular of all, is by one’s ability to succeed in times of trial where others may fail. But of no less importance, and perhaps foundational to any form of greatness, is one’s willingness to start over in spite of failure, when success seems farthest away  (Measured Quotes) Perhaps the importance that we must attach to the achievement of an artist or a group of artists may properly be measured by the answer to the following question: Have they so wrought that it will be impossible henceforth, for those who follow, ever again to act as if they had not existed?  (Measured Quotes) So few the grains of happiness measured against all the dark and still the scales balance  (Measured Quotes) While knowledge of tools and the love of motif may be in your backpack, and all mountains may be measured by their previous heroes, art must exist for you in a place beyond the judgment of others  (Measured Quotes) Any schoolboy could see that man as a force must be measured by motion, from a fixed point  (Measured Quotes) Rise above the deceptions and temptations of the mind. This is your duty. Learn to become wise. Desire nothing, give up all desires and be happy. The real spiritual progress of the meditator is measured by the extent to which they achieve inner tranquility and freedom from desire  (Measured Quotes) I call those men worldly, earthly, or coarse, whose hearts and minds are wholly fixed on this earth, that small part of the universe they are placed in ; who value and love nothing beyond it ; whose minds are as cramped as that narrow spot of ground they call their estate, of which the extent is measured, the acres are numbered, and the limits well known  (Measured Quotes) For as long as I could push air in and out of my chest, I would remember this moment that could never be measured  (Measured Quotes) The moral development of a civilization is measured by the breadth of its sense of community  (Measured Quotes) Public space is for living, doing business, kissing, and playing. Its value can’t be measured with economics or mathematics; it must be felt with the soul  (Measured Quotes) Common sense is an instinct given to man and enough of it is genius. Smartness is measured by the level of common sense one has, not by how much educated or knowledgeable he is  (Measured Quotes) True leadership strengthens the followers. It is a process of teaching, setting an example, and empowering others. If you seek to lead, your ability will ultimately be measured in the successes of those around you  (Measured Quotes) The hallmark of a healthy society has always been measured by how it cares for the disadvantaged  (Measured Quotes) The equations at which we arrive must be such that a person of any nation, by substituting the numerical values of the quantities as measured by his own national units, would obtain a true result  (Measured Quotes) The value of all things contracted for, is measured by the appetite of the contractors, and therefore the just value is that which they be contented to give  (Measured Quotes) All my serving utensils are measured. It’s not obvious, because they’re really beautiful, but I have the option of tracking what I’m eating. That helps me be smart about it  (Measured Quotes) Take the joy and bear the sorrow, looking past your hopes and fears: learn to recognize the measured dance that orders all our years  (Measured Quotes) There must not be a canon of orthodoxy where art is judged and measured. The culture cannot move forward with our heads turned backwards  (Measured Quotes) Personal dignity is to be measured with the yardstick of one’s conscience, not with that of other people’s judgement  (Measured Quotes) The wealth of a society isn’t measured at the top, but at the bottom  (Measured Quotes) America’s greatness rests on far more than the power of our arms. Our greatness is also measured by our goodness, it’s in the capacity of our minds, of our hearts, and it’s in the strength of our democracy  (Measured Quotes) It is fairer to tax people on what they extract from the economy, as roughly measured by their consumption, than to tax them on what they produce for the economy, as roughly measured by their income  (Measured Quotes) It is not true that a man’s intellectual power is, like the strength of a timber beam, to be measured by its weakest point  (Measured Quotes)
