Names Quotes

I was very awkward as a kid. I was a square trying to fit into a circle and it never worked for me. The harder I tried, the harder I fell. For some reason I was a real target and I got beat up and called names Picture Quote #1

Garbage can provide important details for hackers: names, telephone numbers, a company’s internal jargon Picture Quote #1

Nowadays, my mood ungoverned, I’m free to think the most outrageous things, such as: might it not be a good idea to insist that drug companies give their preparations names that tell the user what they really do? Picture Quote #1

My dad worked two jobs and moved us to the suburbs, and just being a black person, I went through a lot of racism and being called names and being bullied every single day. And it was hard. I didn’t have any friends Picture Quote #1

...There are certain people who come into your life, and leave a mark... Their place in your heart is tender; a bruise of longing, a pulse of unfinished business. Just hearing their names pushes and pulls at you in a hundred ways, and when you try to define those hundred ways, describe them even to yourself, words are useless Picture Quote #1

I insist on knowing the names, on being interested only in books left ajar, like doors; I will not go looking for keys Picture Quote #1

There’s a scientific hypothesis that every person’s name is a primary suggestive command that contains the entire script of their life in highly concentrated form... According to this point of view, there is only a limited number of names, because society only needs a limited number of human types. Just a few models of worker and warrior ants, if I could put it like that. And everybody’s psyche is preprogrammed at a basic level by the associative semantic fields that their first name and surname activate Picture Quote #1

I have this idea that every time we discover that the names we’re being called are somehow keeping us less than free, we need to come up with new names for ourselves, and that the names we give ourselves must no longer reflect a fear of being labeled outsiders, must no longer bind us to a system that would rather see us dead Picture Quote #1

Bound to seek recognition of its own existence in categories, terms, and names that are not of its own making, the subject seeks the sign of its own existence outside itself, in a discourse that is at once dominant and indifferent. Social categories signify subordination and existence at once. In other words, within subjection the price of existence is subordination Picture Quote #1

Listen to the trees as they sway in the wind. Their leaves are telling secrets. Their bark sings songs of olden days as it grows around the trunks. And their roots give names to all things. Their language has been lost. But not the gestures Picture Quote #1

I wonder if our names determine our destiny, or if destiny leads us to choose certain names Picture Quote #1

I am from there. I am from here. I am not there and I am not here. I have two names, which meet and part, and I have two languages. I forget which of them I dream in Picture Quote #1

I was pirouette and flourish, I was filigree and flame. How could I count my blessings when I didn’t know their names? Picture Quote #1

The neighbourhood is a place of... intrigue and emotional espionage, where when two people stop to talk on the street their tongues are like the two halves of a scissor coming together, cutting reputations and good names to shreds Picture Quote #1

I shall also take you forth and carve our names together in a yew tree, haloed with stars Picture Quote #1

The poet…is the man of metaphor: while the philosopher is interested only in the truth of meaning, beyond even signs and names, and the sophist manipulates empty signs…the poet plays on the multiplicity of signifieds Picture Quote #1

There are so many unsung heroines and heroes at this broken moment in our collective story, so many courageous persons who, unbeknownst to themselves, are holding together the world by their resolute love or contagious joy. Although I do not know your names, I can feel you out there Picture Quote #1

I also know there are timeless waters, endless seas, and lots of people in this world whose names don’t matter to anyone but themselves. I look up at the sky and I see you there Picture Quote #1

She announced her age right away, for children consider their ages every bit as important as their names Picture Quote #1

I know of witches who whistle at different pitches, calling things that don’t have names Picture Quote #1

Sometimes it’s best not to see your whole path laid out before you. Let life surprise you... There are more stars out there than just the ones with names. And they’re all beautiful Picture Quote #1

Value people because of who they were deep down, not because of their names or their parents’ clout Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know the right names for anything at first, but I knew what knocked me out. Changes... man I dug Picture Quote #1

May I ask your name, my lady? Or perhaps angels have no names, only beautiful faces Picture Quote #1

Nomenclature, the other foundation of botany, should provide the names as soon as the classification is made... If the names are unknown knowledge of the things also perishes... For a single genus, a single name Picture Quote #1

I have found that fate is as liquid and elusive a word as love. Plato thought they were the same... Novalis wrote that fate and soul are two names for the same principle Picture Quote #1

Cats names are more for human benefit. They give one a certain degree more confidence that the animal belongs to you Picture Quote #1

It is possible, of course, to operate with figures mechanically, just as it is possible to speak like a parrot: but that hardly deserves the names of thought. It only becomes possible at all after the mathematical notation has, as a result of genuine thought, been so developed that it does the thinking for us, so to speak Picture Quote #1

None of us knows how long he shall live or when his time will come. But soon, all that will be left of our brief lives is the pride our children feel when they speak our names Picture Quote #1

The best part of it for me is the idea that this group of young men, who came together and believed in themselves, bought the team concept completely, took the names off the back of the jerseys, checked the egos at the door Picture Quote #1
