Taken Quotes

Having lost its value, money may no longer be the root of all evil; credit having taken its place Picture Quote #1

Nature has been taken over by thugs who care absolutely nothing about it. We need to take nature back Picture Quote #1

If you divide the world into them and us, and history into ours and theirs, or if you think of history as something only you and your affiliates possess, then no matter what you know, no matter how noble your intentions, you have taken one step toward the destruction of the world Picture Quote #1

My books have been part of my life forever. They have been good soldiers, boon companions. Every book has survived numerous purges over the years; each book has repeatedly been called onto the carpet and asked to explain itself. I own no book that has not fought the good fight, taken on all comers, and earned the right to remain. If a book is there, it is there for a reason Picture Quote #1

Our eyes see very little and very badly – so people dreamed up the microscope to let them see invisible phenomena; they invented the telescope... now they have perfected the cinecamera to penetrate more deeply into the visible world, to explore and record visual phenomena so that what is happening now, which will have to be taken account of in the future, is not forgotten Picture Quote #1

My way is set as in stone, and I don’t feel the need to veer off any longer. It has taken many days of searching and fighting, but in the end I have found what I was looking for. I have found my way home Picture Quote #1

Opportunities for fraud are open and they are taken advantage of. The most elementary precautions are neither taken nor even contemplated. The reverse is the case. People such as myself who attempt to bring openness and accountability to the system are pursued, suspended and dismissed Picture Quote #1

Whenever I see an unmarried woman carrying a child, my first response is one of respect. I know she could have taken the quick fix without anyone knowing, but she chose instead to let an innocent child live Picture Quote #1

Nothing so strongly impels a man to regard the interest of his constituents, as the certainty of returning to the general mass of the people, from whence he was taken, where he must participate in their burdens Picture Quote #1

Anyone who suggests that coming back from suicidal despair is a straightforward journey has never taken it Picture Quote #1

A quest for knowledge is not a war with faith; spirituality is not usually an infelicitous amalgam of superstition and philistinism; and moral relativism, taken outside midfield, leads inexorably both to heresy and to secular wickedness, which are often identical Picture Quote #1

All my life, following the warrior’s code has taken me to places I was afraid to go. But always when I got there I was glad I made the journey Picture Quote #1

I believe that the time given to refutation in philosophy is usually time lost. Of the many attacks directed by many thinkers against each other, what now remains? Nothing, or assuredly very little. That which counts and endures is the modicum of positive truth which each contributes. The true statement is, of itself, able to displace the erroneous idea, and becomes, without our having taken the trouble of refuting anyone, the best of refutations Picture Quote #1

If we are to abolish the death penalty, I should like to see the first step taken by our friends the murderers Picture Quote #1

Some of the greatest poetry is revealing to the reader the beauty in something that was so simple you had taken it for granted Picture Quote #1

Such a little thing really, a kiss... most people don’t give it a moment’s consideration. They kiss on meeting, they kiss on parting, that simple touching of flesh is taken entirely for granted as a basic human right Picture Quote #1

We are like sailors who on the open sea must reconstruct their ship but are never able to start afresh from the bottom. Where a beam is taken away a new one must at once be put there, and for this the rest of the ship is used as support. In this way, by using the old beams and driftwood the ship can be shaped entirely anew, but only by gradual reconstruction Picture Quote #1

I wondered where the person was who had taken my place, who wanted to know what news people had been told. I’m always looking for the person who replaces me, who thinks the things I do, who fills in for me when I’m not there. I know there is someone younger than me doing what I did and someone older doing what I will do, and someone my age being just like me Picture Quote #1

If tolerance is taken to the point where it tolerates the destruction of those same principles that made tolerance possible in the first place, it becomes intolerable Picture Quote #1

Liebig taught the world two great lessons. The first was that in order to teach chemistry it was necessary that students should be taken into a laboratory. The second lesson was that he who is to apply scientific thought and method to industrial problems must have a thorough knowledge of the sciences. The world learned the first lesson more readily than it learned the second Picture Quote #1

While many technological measures can be taken to secure safety at nuclear power plants, such measures on their own cannot cover great risks Picture Quote #1

Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn? all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience Picture Quote #1

Modern medicine is not scientific, it is full of prejudice, illogic and susceptible to advertising. Doctors are not taught to reason, they are programmed to believe in whatever their medical schools teach them and the leading doctors tell them. Over the past 20 years the drug companies, with their enormous wealth, have taken medicine over and now control its research, what is taught and the information released to the public Picture Quote #1

You always miss a great player, but I think the players on this team have taken a lot of pride in overcoming obstatcles when we have a player down? not only the offensive players, but the defensive players. We were very fortunate that we played that well Picture Quote #1

Nurses are there when the last breath is taken and nurses are there when the first breath is taken. Although it is more enjoyable to celebrate the birth, it is just as important to comfort in death Picture Quote #1

I learned acting by doing it. And although I had never taken an acting class, it didn’t take long to learn how to be on the stage. All you have to do is to be humiliated in front of an audience a few times. If you don’t like being humiliated publicly, you learn how to act Picture Quote #1

The corporations are powerful only because we have allowed them to be. In theory, it is we, not they, who mandate the state. But we have neglected our duty of citizenship, and they have taken advantage of our neglect to seize the reins of government Picture Quote #1

How could I possibly try to pretend the sunlight doesn’t exist, now that it’s taken so much of me? Picture Quote #1

Everything can be taken from you in a second, but the human spirit is so strong. War can teach you so much about evil, and so much about good Picture Quote #1

There is no occasion when meals should become totally unimportant. Meals can be very small indeed, very inexpensive, short times taken in the midst of a big push of work, but they should be always more than just food Picture Quote #1
