Reflection Quotes

Many scientists think that philosophy has no place, so for me it’s a sad time because the role of reflection, contemplation, meditation, self inquiry, insight, intuition, imagination, creativity, free will, is in a way not given any importance, which is the domain of philosophers Picture Quote #1

Let us, my dear contemporaries, arise above such narrow prejudices. If wisdom be desirable on its own account, if virtue, to deserve the name, must be founded on knowledge, let us endeavour to strengthen our minds by reflection till our heads become a balance for our hearts Picture Quote #1

People say my films are dark. But like lightness, darkness stems from a reflection of the world. The thing is, I get these ideas that I truly fall in love with. And a good movie idea is often like a girl you’re in love with, but you know she’s not the kind of girl you bring home to your parents, because they sometimes hold some dark and troubling things Picture Quote #1

A bad earthquake at once destroys the oldest associations: the world, the very emblem of all that is solid, has moved beneath our feet like a crust over a fluid; one second of time has conveyed to the mind a strange idea of insecurity, which hours of reflection would never have created Picture Quote #1

The firelight magnified our shadows, glinted off the silver, flickered high upon the walls; its reflection roared orange in the windowpanes as if a city were burning outside. The whoosh of the flames was like a flock of birds, trapped and beating in a whirlwind near the ceiling. And I wouldn’t have been at all surprised if the long mahogany banquet table, draped in linen, laden with china and candles and fruit and flowers, had simply vanished into thin air, like a magic casket in a fairy story Picture Quote #1

Because I am afraid of commitment. This movie certainly has some bearing and is some reflection of my real feeling about relationships, because I do have commitment issues. My friends tell me I have intimacy problems, but they don’t know me, so who cares what they think? Picture Quote #1

Human beings, viewed as behaving systems, are quite simple. The apparent complexity of our behavior over time is largely a reflection of the complexity of the environment in which we find ourselves Picture Quote #1

I do like things that are not necessarily a reflection of what is considered the right thing by this culture. Somehow, promoting that status quo I find uninteresting Picture Quote #1

This language controls by reducing the linguistic forms and symbols of reflection, abstraction, development, contradiction; by substituting images for concepts. It denies or absorbs the transcendent vocabulary; it does not search for but establishes and imposes truth and falsehood Picture Quote #1

I don’t... I don’t care, he said softly to his reflection. I have a job to do. It doesn’t matter what I have become. It doesn’t matter what I look like Picture Quote #1

After a little reflection, the best strategy becomes clear: bid aggressively up to a maximum cutoff value and then quit Picture Quote #1

Art and politics must move closer together. Reflection and action must be equally valid in good men if history is not to take one course and art an other Picture Quote #1

Which is ideology? Which not? You shall know them by their assertion of truth, their contempt for considered reflection, and their fear of debate Picture Quote #1

... You have discovered the class struggle, or rather its reflection, in the ranks of the party Picture Quote #1

You can hardly convince a man of an error in a lifetime, but must content yourself with the reflection that the progress of science is slow. If he is not convinced, his grandchildren may be Picture Quote #1

I have never known a really chic woman whose appearance was not, in large part, an outward reflection of her inner self Picture Quote #1

The only thing that’s a little tricky about it is sometimes people assume that if it’s a new song, it’s a reflection of what you’re feeling or going through now Picture Quote #1

The best part of human language, properly so called, is derived from reflection on the acts of the mind itself Picture Quote #1

Here. It will blind you with tears like a lover. It will make your reflection a wobbling photo of grief Picture Quote #1

Intent is a reflection of the spirit’s desire to create in the material world Picture Quote #1

In my early years I read very hard. It is a sad reflection, but a true one, that I knew almost as much at eighteen as I do now Picture Quote #1

It is eleven years since I have seen my figure in a glass. The last reflection I saw there was so disagreeable, I resolved to spare myself such mortification in the future Picture Quote #1

Mental pleasure are never cloy; unlike those of the body, they are increased by repetition, approved by reflection, and strengthened by enjoyment Picture Quote #1

How shall we learn to know ourselves? By reflection? Never; but only through action. Strive to do thy duty; then you shall know what is in thee Picture Quote #1

The thinker requires exactly the same light as the painter, clear, without direct sunshine, or blinding reflection, and, where possible, from above Picture Quote #1

The world sees only the reflection of merit; therefore when you come to know a really great man intimately, you may as often find him above as below his reputation Picture Quote #1

Mental pleasures never cloy; unlike those of the body, they are increased by repetition, approved of by reflection, and strengthened by enjoyment Picture Quote #1

Reflection brakes men cowards. There is no object that can be put in competition with life, unless it is viewed through the medium of passion, and we are hurried away by the impulse of the moment Picture Quote #1

For a dear bargain is always annoying, particularly on this account, that it is a reflection on the judgment of the buyer Picture Quote #1

Whoever you are, motion and reflection are especially for you, the divine ship sails the divine sea for you Picture Quote #1
