Questions Quotes

The answer to most questions can be given in one or two words, and no one will challenge you to go deeper Picture Quote #1

If we ask enough questions about a difficult assignment, we can get the teacher to make it easier and less demanding Picture Quote #1

I have two questions for you: What do you need to make your creativity shine through? Why do you keep ignoring it? Picture Quote #1

Fortunately my wife is understanding. When I come home from the races she never asks any questions, if I tell her I just ate a $380 hot dog Picture Quote #1

Books are never out of humour; never envious or jealous, they answer all questions with readiness;... they teach us how to live and how to die; they dispel melancholy by their mirth, and amuse by their wit; they prepare the soul to suffer everything and desire nothing; they introduce us to ourselves Picture Quote #1

An unconscious people, an indoctrinated people, a people fed only partisan information and opinion that confirm their own bias, a people made morbidly obese in mind and spirit by the junk food of propaganda is less inclined to put up a fight, ask questions and be skeptical. And just as a democracy can die of too many lies, that kind of orthodoxy can kill us, too Picture Quote #1

Of all questions, why? is the least pertinent. It begs the question; it assumes the larger part of its own response; to wit, that a sensible response exists Picture Quote #1

I don’t think writers should write about answers. I think writers should write about questions Picture Quote #1

Ask how you’d live your life differently if you knew you were going to die soon, then ask yourself who those people you admire are and why you admire them, and then ask yourself what was the most fun time in your life. The answers to these questions, when seen, heard, and felt, provide us with an open doorway into our mission, our destiny, our purpose Picture Quote #1

The key questions will be: Are you good at working with intelligent machines or not? Are your skills a complement to the skills of the computer, or is the computer doing better without you? Worst of all, are you competing against the computer? Picture Quote #1

There’s a virtuous cycle when people have to defend challenges to their ideas. Any gaps in thinking or analysis become clear pretty quickly when smart people ask good, logical questions. You can’t be a good value investor without being an independent thinker – you’re seeing valuations that the market is not appreciating. But it’s critical that you understand why the market isn’t seeing the value you do. The back and forth that goes on in the investment process helps you get at that Picture Quote #1

We’re a strange animal, so often destroying what we love for selfish ends, and yet tantalized by the sense that there are other choices if only we had strength to make them. In the politics of 400 years ago, we find the same questions we battle with today Picture Quote #1

The answers to our questions are everywhere; we just need to change the lens with which we see the world Picture Quote #1

Science fiction invites the writer to grandly explore alternative worlds and pose questions about meaning and destiny Picture Quote #1

It’s not only for unanswered questions that we seek knowledge but also for the examination of unquestioned answers Picture Quote #1

The only meaningful thing we can offer one another is love. Not advice, not questions about our choices, not suggestions for the future, just love Picture Quote #1

Science, at its core, is simply a method of practical logic that tests hypotheses against experience. Scientism, by contrast, is the worldview and value system that insists that the questions the scientific method can answer are the most important questions human beings can ask, and that the picture of the world yielded by science is a better approximation to reality than any other Picture Quote #1

My challenge is, do not run away from the hard questions. Truly ask yourself what’s worth living for in this life Picture Quote #1

Be sceptical, ask questions, demand proof. Demand evidence. Don’t take anything for granted. But here’s the thing: When you get proof, you need to accept the proof. And we’re not that good at doing that Picture Quote #1

There is a tendency to think that if we engage too directly with moral questions in politics, that’s a recipe for disagreement, and for that matter, a recipe for intolerance and coercion Picture Quote #1

I found I wasn’t asking good enough questions because I assumed I knew something Picture Quote #1

The fine art of executive decision consists in not deciding questions that are not now pertinent, in not deciding prematurely, in not making decisions that cannot be made effective, and in not making decisions that others should make Picture Quote #1

I didn’t grow up with a mother, so I don’t have that resource to rely on and ask a million questions Picture Quote #1

Learning how to deal with people and their reactions to my life is one of the most challenging things... people staring at me, people asking rude questions, dealing with media, stuff like that Picture Quote #1

Television is a great leveler. You always end up sounding like the people who ask the questions Picture Quote #1

One of the big questions in the climate change debate: Are humans any smarter than frogs in a pot? If you put a frog in a pot and slowly turn up the heat, it won’t jump out. Instead, it will enjoy the nice warm bath until it is cooked to death. We humans seem to be doing pretty much the same thing Picture Quote #1

An exhibition is in many ways a series of conversations. Between the artist and viewer, curator and viewer, and between the works of art themselves. It clicks when an exhibition feels like it has answered some questions, and raised even more Picture Quote #1

Science advances through tentative answers to a series of more and more subtle questions which reach deeper and deeper into the essence of natural phenomena Picture Quote #1

At age fourteen I was asking questions. When the answers failed to satisfy me, I searched elsewhere for different answers and found wisdom in atheism. And I am far from alone in that experience Picture Quote #1

We shouldn’t get hung up on the questions we can’t answer because life, by definition, is confusing. We’re never going to have all the answers. Never. We should focus on the questions we can answer and make peace with the ones we can’t Picture Quote #1
