Opinion Quotes

Orthodoxy, or right opinion, is, at best, a very slender part of religion. Though right tempers cannot subsist without right opinions, yet right opinions may subsist without right tempers. There may be a right opinion of God without either love or one right temper toward Him. Satan is a proof of this Picture Quote #1

So lofty is our opinion of ourselves that we find it quite easy, not to say enjoyable, to believe that we are necessary to God. But the truth is that God is not greater for our being, nor would He be less if we did not exist. That we do exist is altogether of God's free determination, Picture Quote #1

Courage is the main quality of leadership, in my opinion, no matter where it is exercised. Usually it implies some risk - especially in new undertakings. Courage to initiate something and to keep it going, pioneering and adventurous spirit to blaze new ways, often, in our land of opportunity Picture Quote #1

The truth of Wesley's words is established before our eyes:

A cat's got her own opinion of human beings. She don't say much, but you can tell enough to make you anxious not to hear the whole of it Picture Quote #1

It is not always easy to diagnose. The simplest form of stupidity - the mumbling, nose-picking, stolid incomprehension - can be detected by anyone. But the stupidity which disguises itself as thought, and which talks so glibly and eloquently, indeed never stops talking, in every walk of life is not so easy to identify, because it marches under a formidable name, which few dare attack. It is called popular opinion Picture Quote #1

The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind Picture Quote #1

An important aspect of nonconformity was its cult of the bible as the fount of all wisdom. But the bible takes much of its color from whoever is reading it, and it provides a text to support almost every shade of opinion, however preposterous Picture Quote #1

The measure of a master is his success in bringing all men around to his opinion twenty years later Picture Quote #1

I had grown tired of standing in the lean and lonely front line facing the greatest enemy that ever confronted man - public opinion Picture Quote #1

A man must know how to fly in the face of opinion; a woman to submit to it Picture Quote #1

Liberty, as it is conceived by current opinion, has nothing inherent about it; it is a sort of gift or trust bestowed on the individual by the state pending good behavior Picture Quote #1

The being without an opinion is so painful to human nature that most people will leap to a hasty opinion rather than undergo it Picture Quote #1

I think one of our big problems has been the fact that many Iraqis resent American military presence. And I don't pretend to know exactly Iraqi public opinion. But as soon as we can reduce our visibility as much as possible, the better I think it is going to be Picture Quote #1

Public opinion is a permeating influence, and it exacts obedience to itself; it requires us to drink other men's thoughts, to speak other men's words, to follow other men's habits Picture Quote #1

The only equitable manner in my opinion, of judging the character of a man is to examine if there are personal calculations in his conduct; if there are not, we may blame his manner of judging, but we are not the less bound to esteem him Picture Quote #1

A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit. A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states Picture Quote #1

Each person must decide for himself what he wants each day. As a leader, I will expose you to the options and the likely consequences of those options. I'll even share my opinion if asked, but I'll never confuse it with the opinion, which simply doesn't exist Picture Quote #1

Truth is one forever absolute, but opinion is truth filtered through the moods, the blood, the disposition of the spectator Picture Quote #1

In my opinion, I think sarcasm and humor in a song, without turning it into a novelty song, is really charming Picture Quote #1

Here's a little newsflash for those reporters and commentators: I'm not going to Washington to seek their good opinion. I'm going to Washington to serve this great country Picture Quote #1

Lies are told only to convey to someone that one has no need either of him or his good opinion Picture Quote #1

Opinion of ghosts, ignorance of second causes, devotion to what men fear, and talking of things casual for prognostics, consisteth the natural seeds of religion Picture Quote #1

Man gives indifferent names to one and the same thing from the difference of their own passions; as they that approve a private opinion call it opinion; but they that mislike it, heresy: and yet heresy signifies no more than private opinion Picture Quote #1

How could a state be governed, or protected in its foreign relations if every individual remained free to obey or not to obey the law according to his private opinion Picture Quote #1
