I had to come to terms with my failure as an artist... I had to find a way for myself Picture Quote #1

I thought the best thing that I could do would be to clean up my own act, in terms of whatever.. childhood wounds were left Picture Quote #1

The different aspects of my activity, whether it’s writing criticism, or doing visual work that incorporates writing, or teaching, or curating, is all of a single cloth, and I don’t make any separation in terms of those practices Picture Quote #1

While it may feel natural to devote yourself to your creative work and succumb to feelings of separation and alienation, it nevertheless isn’t a terrific idea in terms of your overall happiness and health Picture Quote #1

All each ism does, in its revolt against the inadequacy of the previous one, is to thoroughly upset the order of terms of this ideal entity and to bring to the fore yet another inadequacy Picture Quote #1

I keep plastering it until it comes around to what I want, in terms of all I know and think about painting now, as well as in terms of the initial observation Picture Quote #1

Of course there must be the urge, the indefinable longing to get something through into terms of plastic presentation, but results are nearly always unpredictable Picture Quote #1

Now I truly believe that we in this generation must come to terms with nature, and I think we’re challenged, as mankind has never been challenged before, to prove our maturity and our mastery, not of nature but of ourselves Picture Quote #1

No dogma taught by the present civilization seems to form so insuperable an obstacle in a way of a right understanding of the relations which culture sustains as to wilderness, as that which declares that the world was made especially for the uses of men. Every animal, plant, and crystal controverts it in the plainest terms. Yet it is taught from century to century as something ever new and precious, and in the resulting darkness the enormous conceit is allowed to go unchallenged Picture Quote #1

Many people conceive of religion as something apart from everyday affairs of the world. They think of it in terms of ceremony or ritual or sermons and often it strikes them as being dull or not particularly interesting. Religion may be described in many ways. I like to think of it as a medicine, a healing medicine for the mind Picture Quote #1

If global extinction is to be avoided, woman must unite and come to terms with their destiny Picture Quote #1

To come to terms with our beginning requires a truthful story to acquire the skills to live in gratitude rather than resentment for the gift of life Picture Quote #1

Our politics and science have never mastered the fact that people need more than to understand their obligation to one another and to the earth; they need also the feeling of such obligation, and the feeling can come only within the patterns of familiarity. A nation of urban nomads, such as we have become, may simply be unable to be enough disturbed by its destruction of the ecological health of the land, because the people’s dependence on the land, though it has been expounded to them over and over again in general terms, is not immediate to their feelings Picture Quote #1

We are not going to have a situation where our education spending goes back to its lowest level since the year 2000 despite a larger population and more kids to educate. We know that the single most important thing in terms of how well we can compete around the world is the quality of our workforce. We can’t do that to our kids Picture Quote #1

Bull riding is probably the most dangerous sport in the world in terms of head injuries Picture Quote #1

I’ve been screwed by as many women as I have by men, in terms of lawyers. But lawyers don’t count. If you take lawyers out of the equation, you have a more fair playing field. There is a sisterhood Picture Quote #1

In many ways, large profits are even more insidious than large losses in terms of emotional destabilization. I think it’s important not to be emotionally attached to large profits. I’ve certainly made some of my worst trades after long periods of winning. When you’re on a big winning streak, there’s a temptation to think that you’re doing something special, which will allow you to continue to propel yourself upward. You start to think that you can afford to make shoddy decisions. You can imagine what happens next. As a general rule, losses make you strong and profits make you weak Picture Quote #1

I think I care about beauty, but I don’t go for it. I hope it sometimes might be in there. I think, maybe, more in terms of a beautiful moment than trying to figure out what beauty is or what people respond to Picture Quote #1

Many futurists use a checklist approach to make sure they’re covering a sufficiently wide set of topics in terms of both research and brainstorming during a foresight exercise Picture Quote #1

Industrial hemp is a very useful plant. I challenged the attorney general to get rid of the criminal stigma associated with hemp so we can look at it in terms of how it might be useful Picture Quote #1

A holy war is a contradiction in terms. War dehumanizes, war diminishes, war debases all those who wage it Picture Quote #1

The only times you’ll see me in terms of the movie business is when I have to go to the premieres of my own movies. I don’t go to see ones that aren’t mine because I don’t even like going to mine Picture Quote #1

I think title sequences are an opportunity to sort of set the stage or to get people thinking in different terms than maybe whatever they understand the movie to be going in Picture Quote #1

Norway is pretty forward thinking in terms of gender equality, but we don’t seem to practice it as well as we think. I’m constantly thinking: How much power have we really gained? We have to keep fighting to even keep what we’ve fought for already Picture Quote #1

There can be no question of masking the evidence, of suppressing the absurd by denying one of the terms of its equation. It is essential to know whether one can live with it or whether, on the other hand, logic commands one to die of it Picture Quote #1

My ambition is to construct a painting so that the whole of its surface is alive, however I look at it. Each mark, and the interval between each mark must give something back on its own terms Picture Quote #1

I love to sing and I really love to write, but in terms of being onstage, I’m not that comfortable Picture Quote #1
