Text Quotes
As a country, we are in a state of denial about issues of race and racism. And too many of our leaders have concluded that the way to remedy racism is to simply stop talking about race  (State Quotes) Can anything be more absurd than keeping women in a state of ignorance, and yet so vehemently to insist on their resisting temptation?  (State Quotes) There is not one state truly alive if it is not as if a cauldron burns and boils in its representative body, and if there is no clash of convictions in it  (State Quotes) ... garden books are quite unconscious that besides telling us how to turn our patch of earth into a garden, they are also expressing the way their age looks at the world, the state of their society  (State Quotes) Our purpose is to be able to measure the intellectual capacity of a child who is brought to us in order to know whether he is normal or retarded... We do not attempt to establish or prepare a prognosis and we leave unanswered the question of whether this retardation is curable, or even improveable. We shall limit ourselves to ascertaining the truth in regard to his present mental state  (State Quotes) The history of acceptance of new theories frequently shows the following steps: At first the new idea is treated as pure nonsense, not worth looking at. Then comes a time when a multitude of contradictory objections are raised, such as: the new theory is too fancy, or merely a new terminology; it is not fruitful, or simply wrong. Finally a state is reached when everyone seems to claim that he had always followed this theory. This usually marks the last state before general acceptance  (State Quotes) The big time is not a place; it’s the state of your heart. It’s not something you get; it’s something you become  (State Quotes) Love is that enviable state that knows no envy or vanity, only empathy and a longing to be greater than oneself  (State Quotes) Arbitrary rule has its basis, not in the strength of the state or the chief, but in the moral weakness of the individual, who submits almost without resistance to the domineering power  (State Quotes) By happiness I mean here a deep sense of flourishing that arises from an exceptionally healthy mind. This is not a mere pleasurable feeling, a fleeting emotion, or a mood, but an optimal state of being. Happiness is also a way of interpreting the world, since while it may be difficult to change the world, it is always possible to change the way we look at it  (State Quotes) Authentic happiness is not linked to an activity; it is a state of being, a profound emotional balance struck by a subtle understanding of how the mind functions  (State Quotes) There are in the human mind a group of faculties and in the brain groups of convolutions, and the facts assembled by science so far allow to state, as I said before, that the great regions of the mind correspond to the great regions of the brain  (State Quotes) It is hard to hold on to friendships when people move away to another state or to another world  (State Quotes) Good humor is a philosophic state of mind; it seems to say to nature that we take her no more seriously than she takes us  (State Quotes) We need marriage equality in every state in this nation. Otherwise, no state really has marriage equality, and we will not rest until it is a reality  (State Quotes) When the state or federal government controls the education of all of our children, they have the dangerous and illegitimate monopoly to control and influence the thought process of our citizens  (State Quotes) To experience peace does not mean that your life is always blissful. It means that you are capable of tapping into a blissful state of mind amidst the normal chaos of a hectic life  (State Quotes) A successful suicide demands good organization and a cool head, both of which are usually incompatible with the suicidal state of mind  (State Quotes) Pour the bulk of your time into action, not deciding. The state of indecision is a major time waster. Don’t spend more than 60 seconds in that state if you can avoid it. Make a firm, immediate decision, and move from uncertainty to certainty to action. Let the world tell you when you’re wrong, and you’ll soon build enough experience to make accurate, intelligent decisions  (State Quotes) War has all the characteristics of socialism most conservatives hate: Centralized power, state planning, false rationalism, restricted liberties, foolish optimism about intended results, and blindness to unintended secondary results  (State Quotes) The most destructive thing governments do is divide people against each other, all in competition over the reins of the state  (State Quotes) It is of great advantage to the student of any subject to read the original memoirs on that subject, for science is always most completely assimilated when it is in the nascent state  (State Quotes) In the company of friends, writers can discuss their books, economists the state of the economy, lawyers their latest cases, and businessmen their latest acquisitions, but mathematicians cannot discuss their mathematics at all. And the more profound their work, the less understandable it is  (State Quotes) Meditation really helps create not only a sense of balance... but serenity and kind of a calm state of mind  (State Quotes) I am tolerant of all creeds. Yet if any sect suffered itself to be used for political objects I would meet it by political opposition. In my view church and state should be separate, not only in form, but fact. Religion and politics should not be mingled  (State Quotes) Psychical confidence is the external expression of our internal state of confidence. In simpler terms, it is how confidence looks and sounds  (State Quotes) Seen in retrospect, evolution as a whole doubtless had a general direction, from simple to complex, from dependence on to relative independence of the environment, to greater and greater autonomy of individuals, greater and greater development of sense organs and nervous systems conveying and processing information about the state of the organism’s surroundings, and finally greater and greater consciousness. You can call this direction progress or by some other name  (State Quotes) An honest man, armed with all the knowledge available to us now, could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at the moment to be almost a miracle, so many are the conditions which would have had to have been satisfied to get it going  (State Quotes) You think, you become that thought. And consciousness, or the state of pure awareness, is lost  (State Quotes) When I’m in this state, everything is pure, vividly clear. I’m in a cocoon of concentration  (State Quotes)
