Simply Quotes

Any man who does not see everything in terms of self, that is to say who wants to be something in respect of other men, to do good to them or simply give them something to do, is unhappy, disconsolate, and accursed Picture Quote #1

What do I want to take home from my summer vacation? Time. The wonderful luxury of being at rest. The days when you shut down the mental machinery that keeps life on track and let life simply wander. The days when you stop planning, analyzing, thinking and just are. Summer is my period of grace Picture Quote #1

Authority is not power; that’s coercion. Authority is not knowledge; that’s persuasion, or seduction. Authority is simply that the author has the right to make a statement and to be heard Picture Quote #1

The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure. Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon. The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness Picture Quote #1

One cannot expect to coast along and rise automatically to the top, no matter what friends you may have in the company. There may have been a time when, in large corporations, a person could rise simply because he had a stock interest or because he had friends in top management. That’s not true today. Success in business requires training and discipline and hard work. But if you’re not frightened by these things, the opportunities are just as great today as they ever were Picture Quote #1

Paradoxically one of the greatest advantages of mind maps is that they are seldom needed again. The very act of constructing a map is itself so effective in fixing ideas in memory that very often a whole map can recalled without going back to it at all. A mind map is so strongly visual and uses so many of the natural functions of memory that frequently it can be simply read off in the mind’s eye Picture Quote #1

Pleasures are all alike simply considered in themselves: he that hunts, or he that governs the commonwealth, they both please themselves alike, only we commend that, whereby we ourselves receive some benefit Picture Quote #1

I was born to be a runner. I simply love to run. It’s almost like the faster I go, the easier it becomes Picture Quote #1

Money itself isn’t lost or made, it’s simply transferred from one perception to another. This painting here. I bought it 10 years ago for 60 thousand dollars. I could sell it today for 600. The illusion has become real and the more real it becomes, the more desperately they want it Picture Quote #1

I’m simply the happiest, the placidest, when I’m writing, and so I suppose that that, for me, is the final answer... It’s fine therapy for people who are perpetually scared of nameless threats as I am most of the time Picture Quote #1

Do not attempt to do a thing unless you are sure of yourself; but do not relinquish it simply because someone else is not sure of you Picture Quote #1

Millions of people are provided with their thoughts as with their clothes; authors, printers, booksellers, and newsmen stand, in relation to their minds, simply as shoemakers and tailors stand to their bodies Picture Quote #1

Trust is not simply a matter of truthfulness, or even constancy. It is also a matter of amity and goodwill. We trust those who have our best interests at heart, and mistrust those who seem deaf to our concerns Picture Quote #1

First comes an idea. Then, characters begin to evolve out of the landscape of that idea. And then, finally, characters dominate: plot is simply a function of what these people might do or be. Everything has to flow from their personalities; otherwise it will not be emotionally engaging, or plausible Picture Quote #1

Laziness works. And the simple way to incorporate its health benefits into your life is simply to take a nap Picture Quote #1

Surely, anyway, a working day of eight or nine hours which is not split by a nap is simply too much for a human being to take, day in, day out, and particularly so in hot weather Picture Quote #1

Truly, the bench is a boon to idlers. Whoever first came up with the idea is a genius: free public resting places where you can take time out from the bustle and brouhaha of the city, and simply sit and watch and reflect Picture Quote #1

Philanthropy without scale and sustainability is like any other bad business that will simply wither and die on the vine Picture Quote #1

After lengthy consideration, my views have evolved sufficiently to support marriage equality legislation. This position doesn’t require any religious denomination to alter any of its tenets; it simply forbids government from discrimination regarding who can marry whom Picture Quote #1

The best you can sometimes do is learn to take a breath, count to ten and simply accept that try as you might, no, your husband will never, ever learn not to drop a wet towel on the bed. That acceptance too counts as resolving a fight Picture Quote #1

I never see my bad guys as simply bad. They want pretty much the same thing that you and I want: they want to be happy Picture Quote #1

Let me explain my job very simply: My job is to line up five, seven, 10 yards in front of a man and run into him at full speed Picture Quote #1

If a power station were to be built down the road, I’d prefer a nuclear plant over an oil burner, and definitely over a coal burner. We simply have to lessen our consumption of fossil fuels Picture Quote #1

Children have to be motivated to want to learn to read. Reading must not be taught simply as a school exercise Picture Quote #1

When the truth is spoken, it doesn’t need to be adorned. It just needs to be simply stated, and often it only needs to be said once Picture Quote #1

I simply do not think that yelling, swearing, threatening or belittling will get you to the place you want to be faster than kindness, understanding, patience and a little willingness to compromise Picture Quote #1

When I consider the deeper meaning of yoga, I realize it’s about a lot more than simply performing a variety of postures on a mat Picture Quote #1

Money doesn’t mean anything to me. I’ve made a lot of money, but I want to enjoy life and not stress myself building my bank account. I give lots away and live simply, mostly out of a suitcase in hotels. We all know that good health is much more important Picture Quote #1

Romanticizing the act of writing or any other art is not very helpful to the artist or the art. It’s much better if one simply does Picture Quote #1

Carbon zero simply means that the emissions you are releasing either are zero or balance out to zero Picture Quote #1
