Problem Quotes

Everything is a battlefield. If you fight with anger, you are part of the problem. If you fight with joy, you’re part of the solution Picture Quote #1

I believe that the best way to create good living conditions for any animal, whether it’s a captive animal living in a zoo, a farm animal or a pet, is to base animal welfare programs on the core emotion systems in the brain. My theory is that the environment animals live in should activate their positive emotions as much as possible, and not activate their negative emotions any more than necessary. If we get the animal’s emotions rights, we will have fewer problem behaviors... All animals and people have the same core emotion systems in the brain Picture Quote #1

The problem with unfilled dreams is that they give us tunnel vision. We focus on ourselves, and that can be depressing and discouraging place to look Picture Quote #1

And my problem was that I always tried to go in everyone’s way but my own Picture Quote #1

The problem with being a modern woman, I thought, as the front door swung wide, is that you have to pretend to be stronger than you are Picture Quote #1

The problem with evil people is that they can see only evil in others. It is one of the worst curses of being evil, that you can no longer experience good Picture Quote #1

The problem with growing up is that once you’re grown up, the people who aren’t grown up aren’t fun anymore Picture Quote #1

Problem solving, and I don’t mean algebra, seems to be my life’s work. Maybe it’s everyone’s life’s work Picture Quote #1

I mean, look at us. We’re all alone in my bedroom and I’m not feeling any urge to make any kinda move on you. That’s a pretty big problem Picture Quote #1

$I imagine you working on me as an algebra problem, reducing me to fractions, crossing out common denominators, until there’s nothing left on the page but a line that says x = whatever it is that is wrong with me Picture Quote #1$

We tend to be preoccupied by our problems when we have a heightened sense of vulnerability and a diminished sense of power. Today, see each problem as an invitation to prayer Picture Quote #1

A photograph of a woman crying tells me nothing about grief. Or a photograph of a woman ecstatic tells me nothing about ecstasy. What is the nature of these emotions? The problem with photography is that it only deals with appearances Picture Quote #1

Well, the problem is, it’s not easy for me to think of ways to improve myself, because I’m pretty much one of the best people I know Picture Quote #1

I was pulled this way and that for longer than I can remember. And my problem was that I always tried to go in everyone’s way but my own. I have also been called one thing and then another while no one really wished to hear what I called myself. So after years of trying to adopt the opinions of others I finally rebelled. I am an invisible man Picture Quote #1

Then a homeless man with a dog approached us and put his hand out. This happens to be something that I have a real problem with: homeless people with pets who approach you for food when they have a perfectly delicious dog standing right there? Picture Quote #1

From biscuit to brides, if there is anything their children really want, parents have a problem Picture Quote #1

That’s the problem with folks nowadays. Nobody takes responsibility for their actions. Make a mistake and you pay for it. That’s life Picture Quote #1

The problem is that it has become politically awkward to draw attention to absolutes of bad and good. In place of manners, we now have doctrines of political correctness, against which one offends at one’s peril: by means of a considerable circular logic, such offences mark you as reactionary and therefore a bad person. Therefore if you say people are bad, you are bad Picture Quote #1

There would be a trial and there would be a judge. The only problem was, there could only be one sentence Picture Quote #1

Men sucked. They were the root of every problem any woman could ever have. They were the reason for bras, the need for makeup, hair stylists, shaving legs, and high heels that made the arch feel like it had a steel rod slammed up it. They were picky, arrogant, argumentative, and so damned certain of themselves <... > Picture Quote #1

I don’t understand all the nuances of the women’s movement. But I do understand that there are feminists who want to challenge the dominant paradigm, not only of patriarchy, but of where the original wealth came from and the relationship of that wealth to other peoples and the earth. That is the only way that that I think you can really get to the depth of the problem Picture Quote #1

We deny the severity of our loved one’s problem not because we are naive, but because we can’t know Picture Quote #1

The point is, life has to be endured, and lived. But how to live it is the problem Picture Quote #1

I was starting to realize the extent of the problem here: everyone is always lying to each other, and even when they’re trying to tell the truth, it can still be misleading or wrong. In fact, it almost always is wrong from at least one angle. I mean, the truth is really just a better class of lie Picture Quote #1

The problem isn’t how to make the world more technological. It’s about how to make the world more humane again Picture Quote #1

Ignoring is what you are supposed to do with bullies, so they get bored and leave you alone. But the problem in school is that they don’t get bored, because whatever else there is to do is more boring still Picture Quote #1

The problem with most genre fantasy is that it’s not nearly fantastic enough. It’s escapist, but it can’t escape Picture Quote #1

I know it’s not clothes that make women beautiful or otherwise, nor beauty care, nor expensive creams, nor the distinction of costliness of their finery. I know the problem lies elsewhere. I don’t know where. I only know it isn’t where women think Picture Quote #1

I’ve always protected myself when it comes to love. And maybe that’s the problem. By not letting myself get hurt now, it ripples into much bigger pain later Picture Quote #1

The single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story Picture Quote #1
