What a beautiful testament to the creative spirit and its true motives, to creative contribution coming from a place of purpose rather than a hunger for profit (Motives Quotes)
If you wait until your motives are pure and unselfish before you do something, you will wait forever (Motives Quotes)
There never was an assembly of men, charged with a great and arduous trust, who were more pure in their motives, or more exclusively or anxiously devoted to the object committed to them (Motives Quotes)
One principle I’ve been fighting for that doesn’t endear me to a lot of people is that black people can be just as complicated and screwed up as white people. Our motives can be just as base and violent. Suffering does not necessarily ennoble you (Motives Quotes)
Caregiving has no second agendas or hidden motives. The care is given from love for the joy of giving without expectation, no strings attached (Motives Quotes)
... we discovered that education is not something which the teacher does, but that it is a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being. It is not acquired by listening to words, but in virtue of experiences in which the child acts on his environment. The teacher’s task is not to talk, but to prepare and arrange a series of motives for cultural activity in a special environment made for the child (Motives Quotes)
Even where the affections are not strongly moved by any superior excellence, the companions of our childhood always possess a certain power over our minds which hardly any later friend can obtain. They know our infantine dispositions, which, however they may be afterwards modified, are never eradicated; and they can judge of our actions with more certain conclusions as to the integrity of our motives (Motives Quotes)
History is always written wrong, and so always needs to be rewritten... What is interesting is brought forward as if it had been central and efficacious in the march of events, and harmonies are turned into causes. Kings and generals are endowed with motives appropriate to what the historian values in their actions; plans are imputed to them prophetic of their actual achievements, while the thoughts that really preoccupied them remain buried in absolute oblivion (Motives Quotes)
I do not think one can assess a writer’s motives without knowing something of his early development. His subject matter will be determined by the age he lives in... but before he ever begins to write he will have acquired an emotional attitude from which he will never completely escape (Motives Quotes)
I am unable to conceive that the state legislatures which must feel so many motives to watch, and which possess so many means of counteracting the federal legislature, would fail either to detect or to defeat a conspiracy of the latter against the liberties of their common constituencies (Motives Quotes)
Empathic listening is so powerful because it gives you accurate data to work with. Instead of projecting your own autobiography and assuming thoughts, feelings, motives and interpretation, you’re dealing with the reality inside another person’s head and heart. You’re listening to understand. You’re focused on receiving the deep communication of another human soul (Motives Quotes)
It is when we act freely, for the sake of the action itself rather than for ulterior motives, that we learn to become more than what we were. When we choose a goal and invest ourselves in it to the limits of concentration, whatever we do will be enjoyable. And once we have tasted this joy, we will redouble our efforts to taste it again. This is the way the self grows (Motives Quotes)
And truly it demands something God like in him who has cast off the common motives of humanity, and has ventured to trust himself for a taskmaster. High be his heart, faithful his will, clear his sight, that he may in good earnest be doctrine, society, law, to himself, that a simple purpose may be to him as strong as iron necessity is to others! (Motives Quotes)
We have nothing less to do than to get inside of whole peoples and change their motives and dispositions (Motives Quotes)
People do not always understand the motives of sublime conduct, and when they are astonished they are very apt to think they ought to be alarmed. The truth is none are fit judges of greatness but those who are capable of it (Motives Quotes)
The automobile is technologically more sophisticated than the bundling board, but the human motives in their uses are sometimes the same (Motives Quotes)
It is a question of fact, whether the influence of motives be fixed by laws of nature, so that they shall always have the same effect in the same circumstances (Motives Quotes)
This kind of charge reveals a good deal about the personality of the people who make it; to impute such motives to another man is to imply you’re harboring them yourself (Motives Quotes)
The inner thought coming from the heart represents the real motives and desires. These are the cause of action (Motives Quotes)
All governments in all wars have used all the means at their disposal to put their own motives, decisions and actions, and the actions of their military forces, in the best possible light (Motives Quotes)
Party politics in modern democratic society means pandering to a wide variety of different groups and sympathizing with their often quite base motives, such as revenge, power, booty, and spoils, to maintain the necessary level of support (Motives Quotes)
One must have deeper motives and judge everything accordingly, but go on talking like an ordinary person (Motives Quotes)
They who no longer believe in principles still proclaim them, to conceal, both from themselves and others, the selfishness of the motives by which they are dominated (Motives Quotes)
Humanity is made up of an infinity of different individuals. Each of us travels for motives exclusively his own (Motives Quotes)
Sexual activity is driven by the same aims and motives as reading poetry or listening to music: to escape the limitations imposed by the need for particularity in the consciousness (Motives Quotes)
People always try to find base motives behind every good action. We are afraid of pure goodness and of pure evil (Motives Quotes)
One must be truthful with oneself about one’s own motives, especially if one is to survive in the world. It takes rigor, and it takes courage (Motives Quotes)
The pure in heart are slow to credit calumnies, because they hardly comprehend what motives can be inducements to the alleged crimes (Motives Quotes)
Motives are better than actions. Men drift into crime. Of evil they do more than they contemplate, and of good they contemplate more than they do (Motives Quotes)
The true motives of our actions, like the real pipes of an organ, are usually concealed; but the gilded and hollow pretext is pompously placed in the front for show (Motives Quotes)
