Minds Quotes

I love to lose myself in other men's minds. When I am not walking, I am reading, I cannot sit and think. Books think for me Picture Quote #1

In making Himself known to us He stays by the familiar pattern of personality. He communicates with us through the avenues of our minds, our wills and our emotions Picture Quote #1

This is the magnanimity of authorship, when a writer having a topic presented to him, fruitful of beauties for common minds, waives his privilege, and trusts to the judicious few for understanding the reason of his abstinence Picture Quote #1

I have long felt that the way to keep children out of trouble is to keep them interested in things. Lecturing to children is no answer to delinquency. Preaching won't keep youngsters out of trouble, but keeping their minds occupied will Picture Quote #1

To be right we must think worthily of God. It is morally imperative that we purge from our minds all ignoble concepts of the Deity and let Him be the God in our minds that He is in His universe. The Christian religion has to do with God and man, but its focal point is God, not man. Man's only claim to importance is that he was created in the divine image; in himself he is nothing Picture Quote #1

Crowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource - the minds of our children Picture Quote #1

They have never bothered to think the matter out for themselves, but have heard about Him from others, and have put belief in Him into the back of their minds along with the various odds and ends that make up their total creed. To many others God is but an ideal, another name for goodness, or beauty, or truth; or He is law, or life, or the creative impulse back of the phenomena of existence Picture Quote #1

Men characterize pornography as something mental because their minds, their thoughts, their dreams, their fantasies, are more real to them than women's bodies or lives; in fact, men have used their social power to characterize a $10-billion-a-year trade in women as fantasy Picture Quote #1

Imperialism leaves behind germs of rot which we must clinically detect and remove from our land but from our minds as well Picture Quote #1

Great spirits have always encountered opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly Picture Quote #1

But we need to pray daily for humility and honesty to see these sinful attitudes for that they really are, and then for grace and discipline to root them out of our minds and replace them with thoughts pleasing to God Picture Quote #1

The world is burdened with young fogies. Old men with ossified minds are easily dealt with. But men who look young, act young and everlastingly harp on the fact that they are young, but who nevertheless think and act with a degree of caution that would be excessive in their grandfathers, are the curse of the world. Their very conservatism is secondhand, and they don't know what they are conserving Picture Quote #1

By this time I had discovered that all the gamey bits were cut out of the school texts, because I had a Shakespeare of my own; the Ontario Department of Education was hard at its impossible task of trying to educate the masses without in any permanent way inflaming their minds Picture Quote #1

Uncultivated minds are not full of wild flowers, like uncultivated fields. Villainous weeds grow in them and they are the haunt of toads Picture Quote #1

There is one thing that matters, to set a chime of words tinkling in the minds of a few fastidious people Picture Quote #1

'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death Picture Quote #1

There are minds so impatient of inferiority that their gratitude is a species of revenge, and they return benefits, not because recompense is a pleasure, but because obligation is a pain Picture Quote #1

We need better government, no doubt about it. But we also need better minds, better friendships, better marriages, better communities Picture Quote #1

The habit of common and continuous speech is a symptom of mental deficiency. It proceeds from not knowing what is going on in other people's minds Picture Quote #1

What we think determines what happens to us, so if we want to change our lives, we need to stretch our minds Picture Quote #1

Where no interest is takes in science, literature and liberal pursuits, mere facts and insignificant criticisms necessarily become the themes of discourse; and minds, strangers alike to activity and meditation, become so limited as to render all intercourse with them at once tasteless and oppressive Picture Quote #1

Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds Picture Quote #1

Science frees us in many ways... From the bodily terror which the savage feels. But she replaces that, in the minds of many, by a moral terror which is far more overwhelming Picture Quote #1

All greatness affects different minds, each in its own particular kind, and the variations of testimony mark the truth of feeling Picture Quote #1
