Text Quotes
The great thing about novels is that you can be as unshy as you want to be. I’m very polite in person. I don’t want to talk about startling or upsetting things with people  (The Great Quotes) Having read the histories of other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and that the world’s surface being limited, the great object of present humanity should be to take as much of the world as it possibly could  (The Great Quotes) Theatre should be a taxing experience: the greatest achievement of a writer is to produce a character who creates anxiety  (The Great Quotes) The young people I teach now know they are being sold down the river before we even start studying the trends and numbers. That’s the toughest part of being a high school economics teacher... being a witness when our children realize that the greatest deficit of all is a deficit of leadership  (The Great Quotes) It’s like a whole orchestra, the piano for me. And also it’s to me the greatest instrument. I shouldn’t say that, but I believe that this is the only instrument I can really feel happy about playing  (The Great Quotes) Imaginative empathy is one of the great gifts that humans have, and it means that we can live more than one life. We can picture what it would be like from another perspective  (The Great Quotes) I never thought I would get married and have kids. I thought I was going to be a gypsy actor, traveling all over the world playing the great roles. I ended up having a kid very young, and it put things in perspective  (The Great Quotes) We are the greatest computers in this world, but now we’ve created the smart phone which is smarter than us now, but we’re still making dumb decisions. We have given our creations more power than we have, and that to me is dumb  (The Great Quotes) The great thing about using the past is that it gives you the most colossal freedom to invent. The research is necessary, of course, but no one writes a novel to dramatically illustrate what everybody already knows  (The Great Quotes) The great opera composers were so good at their job, that the whole genre came to be built around the concept of the composer’s vision  (The Great Quotes) I’m kind of spoiled, but the great thing about life is that you never know what’s around the corner  (The Great Quotes) I had a period of unemployment for about nine months after my first big break, and it’s the greatest lesson I ever could have learned, never to believe you’re home and dry  (The Great Quotes) The great thing about films is that you have access to this whole world of experts who teach you the skills your character’s supposed to have  (The Great Quotes) I can only say that in life when you have the greatest expectations and you try to do things the right way, it doesn’t always work out  (The Great Quotes) I wrote about wasting time, which I suppose is a part of the great human journey. We’re supposed to wallow, to go through the desert without water for a long time so that when we finally drink it, we’ll truly need it and we won’t spill a drop. It’s about being present  (The Great Quotes) It may seem unfashionable to say so, but historians should seize the imagination as well as the intellect. History is, in a sense, a story, a narrative of adventure and of vision, of character and of incident. It is also a portrait of the great general drama of the human spirit  (The Great Quotes) Childhood vaccines are one of the great triumphs of modern medicine. Indeed, parents whose children are vaccinated no longer have to worry about their child’s death or disability from whooping cough, polio, diphtheria, hepatitis, or a host of other infections  (The Great Quotes) We have not merely escaped from something but into something... We have joined the greatest of all communities, which is not that of man alone but of everything which shares with us the great adventure of being alive  (The Great Quotes) Experience is the great teacher; unfortunately, experience leaves mental scars, and scar tissue contracts  (The Great Quotes) The greater the man, the more he is soaked in the atmosphere of his time; only thus can he get a wide enough grasp of it to be able to change substantially the pattern of knowledge and action  (The Great Quotes) Published papers may omit important steps and the memory of men of science, even the greatest, is sadly fallible  (The Great Quotes) Technological rationality reveals its political character as it becomes the great vehicle of better domination, creating a truely totalitarian universe in which society and nature, mind and body are kept in a state of permanent mobilization for the defense of this universe  (The Great Quotes) I played in garage bands and rock and roll bands when I was in junior high and high school and saw some of the great talents of all time in the local area where I lived  (The Great Quotes) You know, the great thing about acting or, indeed, filmmaking in general, is that we’re all given a reason to do research. You kind of have to, really, if you want to know what you’re doing, but it opens up this whole new understanding  (The Great Quotes) People who put themselves on the line and sacrifice their own safety for the greater good and for others, and anyone in any profession whose concern is the welfare for other people instead of the individual, are inspiring and important  (The Great Quotes) The greatest benefit of being a solo performer is that it is seriously frightening, but at the same time very empowering. It’s just you and the audience. All the weight is on you to deliver the songs  (The Great Quotes) Small businesses want things streamlined, and one of the great successes we’re having is less paperwork, faster turnaround times  (The Great Quotes) The thing I find about the movie industry is that 99 percent of the people are absolute scum. They’re horrible people, they really are. Very nasty killer rabbits who hate movies. But the other 1 percent are really the greatest, most wonderful people in the world  (The Great Quotes) All in all, for someone who was immersed in, fascinated by, and dedicated to flight, I was disappointed by the wrinkle in history that had brought me along one generation late. I had missed all the great times and adventures in flight  (The Great Quotes) It is a most certain truth, that the richer we see ourselves to be, confessing at the same time our poverty, the greater will be our progress, and the more real our humility  (The Great Quotes)
