Straight Quotes

However destructive may be the policies of the government and the methods and products of the corporations, the root of the problem is always found to be found in private life. We must learn to see that every problem that concerns us as conservationists always leads straight to the question of how we live. The world is being destroyed, no doubt about it, by the greed of the rich and powerful. It is also being destroyed by popular demand Picture Quote #1

Sit down, keep your back straight, relax and have an object on which to concentrate; you might use a candle flame, a brightly colored rock, a yantra, which is a geometrical designed specifically for the practice of concentration Picture Quote #1

I can’t think of many reasons as to why, but gay men and straight women both share an inherent attraction to men, and attraction informs a large part of human nature Picture Quote #1

You put a blob of yellow here, and another at the further edge of the canvas: straight away a rapport is established between them. Colour acts in the way that music does Picture Quote #1

When a man in a forest thinks he is going forward in a straight line, in reality he is going in a circle, I did my best to go in a circle, hoping to go in a straight line Picture Quote #1

If you have a clear goal and a plan to achieve it, your focus is fixed on a set course of action. Instead of becoming sidetracked by distractions and diversions, your time is focused on a straight line from start to finish Picture Quote #1

You throw a perfectly straight line at the audience and then, right at the end, you curve it. Good jokes do that Picture Quote #1

I started with straight, basic, symbolic structures. My problem now is the opposite; as I get older, I try to make my paintings more contrapuntal, richer Picture Quote #1

I organize the opposition between colors, lines and curves. I set curves against straight lines, patches of color against plastic forms, pure colors against subtly nuanced shades of gray Picture Quote #1

A child sees everything, looks straight at it, examines it, without any preconceived idea; most people, after they are about eleven or twelve, quite lose this power, they see everything through a few preconceived ideas which hang like a veil between them and the outer world Picture Quote #1

Above all, good leaders are open. They go up, down, and around their organization to reach people. They don’t stick to the established channels. They’re informal. They’re straight with people. They make a religion out of being accessible. They never get bored telling their story Picture Quote #1

You must first realize the thing completely in your mind. Then grasp the brush, fix your attention so that you see clearly what you wish to paint; start quickly, move the brush, follow straight what you see before you, as the buzzard swoops down when the hare jumps out. If you hesitate one moment, it is gone Picture Quote #1

This was middle school, the age of miracles, the time when kids shot up three inches over the summer, when breasts bloomed from nothing, when voices dipped and dove. Our first flaws were emerging, but they were being corrected. Blurry vision could be fixed invisibly with the magic of the contact lens. Crooked teeth were pulled straight with braces. Spotty skin could be chemically cleared. Some girls were turning beautiful. A few boys were growing tall Picture Quote #1

I wish I could put a patent on that thing. That was so straight I had to lean over sideways to see the flag! Picture Quote #1

Drinking helps us to forget what we are, we leave the office and walk straight to the bar Picture Quote #1

I’m not interested in the words or the meaning of the words. I’m interested in disappearing in it completely, to not be aware of yourself at all. That’s the way music works for me. It’s purely emotional. It goes straight to the heart. There are no explanations. That’s just it Picture Quote #1

Every light has a point where it is brightest and a point toward which it wanders to lose itself completely. It must be intercepted to fulfill its mission; it cannot function in a void. Light can go straight, penetrate and turn back, be reflected and deflected, gathered and spread, bent as by a soap bubble, made to sparkle and be blocked. Where it is no more is blackness, and where it begins is the core of its brightness. The journey of rays from that central core to the outposts of blackness is the adventure and drama of light Picture Quote #1

A story can fly like a bee, so straight and swift you catch only the hum of its passing. Or move so slowly it seems motionless, curled in upon itself like a snake in the sun. It can vanish like smoke before the wind. Linger like perfume in the nose. Change with every telling, yet always remain the same Picture Quote #1

I’m usually not the straight guy. I’m sometimes more the funny guy, depending on the situation Picture Quote #1

I think it’s that much harder to make a good comedy than it is straight and apparently serious Picture Quote #1

I don’t really want to hang out with politicians. I’d rather go straight to hell, and not collect $200 Picture Quote #1

As a hero, you have to play it straight. The audience is going to live through you, so you have to be more neutral. They will be projecting their thoughts and their actions onto the main character Picture Quote #1

I was always apologizing for yesterday’s behavior and I got tired of it. I feel it’s good being straight. As I did when I first got high. It’s a high to be straight because I was getting loaded every day Picture Quote #1

I never even went to high school because I went straight from middle school into the music business. I don’t really know what it is supposed to be like Picture Quote #1

Only lifeless mechanisms move along faultlessly straight lines and compass circles. In art the surest way to destroy is to canonize one given form and one philosophy: that which is canonized quickly dies of obesity, of entropy Picture Quote #1

If the earth were not round, heavy bodies would not tend from every side in a straight line towards the center of the earth, but to different points from different sides Picture Quote #1

Keep this straight in your head: we are not fighting an alien invasion we’re leading a revolution. And today the battle begins Picture Quote #1

We believe that black holes collapse to rings hitting very fast. If you follow through the ring you don’t die. The mathematics says you fall straight through, perhaps to another universe Picture Quote #1

I hate dates. I sit at home all day, and I don’t fart once. I go on a date and I’ve got twenty in the bank straight away Picture Quote #1

When you’re too mad and too rattled to see straight, you’re bound to make mistakes. You can’t go on and on for years being miserable about a situation and not have it change you. You get so you can’t stand yourself Picture Quote #1
