Practical Quotes

There are a lot of different ways of building a prosperous society, and some of them use much less energy than others. And it is possible and more practical to talk about rebuilding systems to use much less energy than it is to think about trying to meet greater demands of energy through clean energy alone Picture Quote #1

My parents taught me many of the things that people need in life to feel confident: practical things, such as managing finances, mucking out the goat barn, cleaning a house, doing repairs, mending a broken roof or a toilet Picture Quote #1

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary Picture Quote #1

No one wants their stuff stolen. No one wants their physical person harmed. If you understand the implications of those two truths, you can come to see the egregious moral and practical problems of a state-managed society Picture Quote #1

I love horror comedies, and I love horror movies. In particular, I love horror movies from the 80s that have practical monsters in them. They’re not just slasher movies with people going to kill people in people’s houses. Although I do like ‘The Last House on the Left,’ and things like that, I do like these ridiculous monster movies Picture Quote #1

Hard times are a-coming, and people without useful, practical skills are going to suffer. Or suffer most Picture Quote #1

Ultimately, you have to write what’s coming at any given point in time. Fighting your instincts for practical reasons is a losing battle Picture Quote #1

I have five boys in the family, and it’s constant competition, sport, humor, and practical jokes Picture Quote #1

With age, life becomes complex and difficult, often fraught with risk on several levels, from the practical to the fiscal Picture Quote #1

I have never been able to see life as anything but a vast complicated practical joke, and it’s better to laugh than cry Picture Quote #1

In a movie, it’s often important to have aliens whose gestures and facial expressions can be ‘read’ by humans. And in the days before sophisticated computer animation, most extraterrestrial bit players were guys in rubber suits. Such practical considerations forced Hollywood’s hand when it came to aliens - they look like us for good reasons Picture Quote #1

As a science fiction fan, I had always assumed that when computers supplemented our intelligence, it would be because we outsourced some of our memory to them. We would ask questions, and our machines would give oracular - or supremely practical - replies Picture Quote #1

A successful trader is rational, analytical, able to control emotions, practical, and profit oriented Picture Quote #1

Bulgarians eat tarator every single day in summer. They think of it as salad although we’d call it a soup. You can make it as thick or thin as you like depending on how much water you add. It’s very practical in summer because yogurt cools the body faster than water, but the water hydrates you Picture Quote #1

In the corporate world, what is not showcased well simply doesn’t exist for any practical purpose! Picture Quote #1

Terrorism is resorted to for practical reasons because there is no other tool available. And those who use terrorism, and then subsequently become the targets of terrorism, understand its power and how difficult it is to counter it. Not just militarily. But especially in terms of international perception Picture Quote #1

I mean, first of all, let me say whichever superhero first came up with the idea of wearing a cape, he wasn’t really onto anything good. The number of times I’m treading on that damn thing or I throw a punch and it ends up covering my whole head. It’s really not practical Picture Quote #1

Zac Efron is like a brother who’s just goofy and crazy. He plays a lot of practical jokes Picture Quote #1

Before innovation - or practical creativity - there is insight. You must see the world differently Picture Quote #1

I’m not into politics but I am committed to a cause: ensuring design technology and engineering stays on the U.K. curriculum, alongside science and maths - grounding abstract theory, merging the practical with the academic Picture Quote #1

Conscience is the most dangerous thing you possess. If you wake it up, it may destroy you. To live a life of total moral rigor is not necessarily the way to go. It’s the path for very few people. Most people need to come up with some kind of middle ground that satisfies their practical, moral, and philosophical esthetic needs Picture Quote #1

Choices are much more practical and small when you’re dealing with a real story. It’s about execution, it’s not about content Picture Quote #1

Immortality was overrated, as far as he was concerned. Hardy had enough problems as it was; living forever sounded like a death sentence for someone with his practical sensibilities Picture Quote #1

No man can do both effective and decent work in public life unless he is a practical politician on the one hand, and a sturdy believer in Sunday-school politics on the other. He must always strive manfully for the best, and yet, like Abraham Lincoln, must often resign himself to accept the best possible Picture Quote #1

She did not want to say it, because it made no practical sense, but in the end she went to Japan for the delicate sake cups, resting in her hand like a blossom; she went to Japan for loveliness Picture Quote #1

I used to love to create outfits, and I still do - I just don’t have the time. How can you wear one thing and never wear it again? Even my wedding dress - I had a dress made that I could wear again. I’m a child of the depression, so I’m very, very practical Picture Quote #1

Marshall Rosenberg has a genius for developing and teaching practical skills urgently needed for a less violent, more caring world Picture Quote #1

The most significant moment in the course of intellectual development, which gives birth to the purely human forms of practical and abstract intelligence, occurs when speech and practical activity, two previously completely independent lines of development, converge Picture Quote #1

The most direct and practical method of self-development is to achieve yourself by your own effort Picture Quote #1

We talked [with Scott Derrickson] about making it kind of muscular and practical. Yeah it’s a fantasy but what’s the difference between fantasy and reality really? Picture Quote #1
