Text Quotes
The truth is balance. However the opposite of truth, which is unbalance, may not be a lie  (Opposite Quotes) If falsehood, like truth, had but one face, we would be more on equal terms. For we would consider the contrary of what the liar said to be certain. But the opposite of truth has a hundred thousand faces and an infinite field  (Opposite Quotes) I used to think that humor was the only way to appreciate how wonderful and terrible the world is, to celebrate how big life is. But now I think the opposite. Humor is a way of shrinking from that wonderful and terrible world  (Opposite Quotes) It belongs to the imperfection of everything human that man can only attain his desire by passing through its opposite  (Opposite Quotes) Gnomic wisdom, however, is notoriously polychrome, and proverbs depend for their truth entirely on the occasion they are applied to. Almost every wise saying has an opposite one, no less wise, to balance it  (Opposite Quotes) To fight is a radical instinct; if men have nothing else to fight over they will fight over words, fancies, or women, or they will fight because they dislike each other’s looks, or because they have met walking in opposite directions  (Opposite Quotes) The painter who draws by practise and judgment of the eye without the use of reason is like the mirror which reproduces within itself all the objects which are set opposite to it without knowledge of the same  (Opposite Quotes) True worth is as inevitably discovered by the facial expression, as its opposite is sure to be clearly represented there. The human face is nature’s tablet, the truth is certainly written thereon  (Opposite Quotes) Toil and pleasure, in their natures opposite, are yet linked together in a kind of necessary connection  (Opposite Quotes) A transposable aphorism is a malaise of the urge to be witty, or in other words, a maxim that is untroubled by the fact that the opposite of what it says is equally true so long as it appears to be funny  (Opposite Quotes) To be human and to be adult means constantly to be in the grip of opposing emotions, to have daily to reconcile apparently conflicting tensions. I want this, but need that. I cherish this, but I adore its opposite too  (Opposite Quotes) The absolute worst thing that you ever can do, in my opinion, in bringing science to the general public, is be condescending or judgmental. It is so opposite to the way science needs to be brought forth  (Opposite Quotes) Counterintuitive actions prove we can trust real knowledge and do the opposite of what we feel makes sense  (Opposite Quotes) Everybody in politics claims to want to get everybody out of poverty. What’s the opposite? Wealth. And what is often criticized by the left? Wealth  (Opposite Quotes) I used to let other people’s struggles affect my happiness. If they weren’t happy, there was no way I was going to be happy. The opposite was also true: If I wasn’t happy, I didn’t want anyone around me to be happy  (Opposite Quotes) Capitalism and democracy are the opposite of each other. Capitalism is a system that guarantees that a few are going to do very well, and everybody else is going to serve the few. Democracy means everybody has a seat at the table. Everybody  (Opposite Quotes) People think that their world will get smaller as they get older. My experience is just the opposite. Your senses become more acute. You start to blossom  (Opposite Quotes) Faith is not a commodity that you either have or don’t have enough of, or the right kind of. It’s an ongoing process. The opposite of faith is despair  (Opposite Quotes) When I write a song, I tap into the emotion and the feeling and then I use the emotion to write the words. It’s the opposite when I act. I use the words and tap into the emotion  (Opposite Quotes) I never attended a creative writing class in my life. I have a horror of them; most writers groups moonlight as support groups for the kind of people who think that writing is therapeutic. Writing is the exact opposite of therapy  (Opposite Quotes) I tend to write out the first iteration of a lyric here and then go over here and make variations on it, on the page opposite  (Opposite Quotes) At first I assumed hate was the opposite of love. But it isn’t. The opposite of love is indifference  (Opposite Quotes) Academia is the death of cinema. It is the very opposite of passion. Film is not the art of scholars, but of illiterates  (Opposite Quotes) ... when two opposite points of view are expressed with equal intensity, the truth does not necessarily lie exactly halfway between them. It is possible for one side to be simply wrong  (Opposite Quotes) In my joy I thrust my hand into the live embers, but quickly drew it out with a cry of pain. How strange, I thought that the same cause should produce such opposite effects  (Opposite Quotes) For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. You receive from the world what you give to the world  (Opposite Quotes) Staring at the wall opposite him he presented the queen with a view of his ear and awaited her orders  (Opposite Quotes) Most mothers worry when their daughters reach adolescence but I was the opposite. I relaxed, I sighed with relief. Little girls are cute and small only to adults. To one another they are not cute. They are life sized  (Opposite Quotes) Resistances do not derive from a few heterogeneous principles; but neither are they a lure or a promise that is of necessity betrayed. They are the odd term in relations of power; they are inscribed in the latter as an irreducible opposite  (Opposite Quotes) Words are such uncertain things, they so often sound well but mean the opposite of what one thinks they do  (Opposite Quotes)
