Thinks Quotes

When a librarian really believes that a book is harmful, that its content is contrary to the welfare of the community, or that it is destructive of good taste, even if those are his opinions only, he has not only the right, but also the obligation to do what he properly can to keep that book out of the hand of those whom he thinks might be injured by it Picture Quote #1

For the taking of revenge, a man locks himself up alone and thinks. His stomach must be empty for his head to be full. Vengeance comes a little from the heart and a lot from the mind; one must take oneself apart from the noise of men and of things, even from what resembles them; only the voices of bells and of thunder are allowed. Let the room in which you meditate be dark, narrow and warm Picture Quote #1

I’m not interested in what the public thinks. My fight is in the courts. And while I have been fighting with the appeal it has been an uphill battle because I am an unpopular cause. Too much public pressure, too much politics. To give me a hearing so that I can prove that the state withheld evidence favourable to me, that the identifications of some of the victims was wrong, and that my attorney was more concerned about book rights and how sensationally more the case could get the higher the value of the book Picture Quote #1

I’m getting fed up of living away from home so much. They look after you very well but it doesn’t matter how well you’re looked after, how nice the hotel is, if you’re away from home constantly, the bloody dog savages you, thinks you’re a stranger, the kid cries and the wife’s stuck to your face! Picture Quote #1

It doesn’t matter what anybody thinks of what I do. The clock doesn’t lie Picture Quote #1

Economists have allowed themselves to walk into a trap where we say we can forecast, but no serious economist thinks we can. You don’t expect dentists to be able to forecast how many teeth you’ll have when you’re 80. You expect them to give good advice and fix problems Picture Quote #1

I want to be part of a different kind of celebrity, one that thinks not just about charity but policy Picture Quote #1

Man always thinks about the past before he dies, as if he were frantically searching for proof that he truly lived Picture Quote #1

Modern man is a prisoner who thinks he is free because he refrains from touching the walls of his dungeon Picture Quote #1

Parents need to be more accepting of who their kids are and less concerned about what society thinks they need to be Picture Quote #1

If a girl thinks she isn’t beautiful, I’m here to prove her wrong Picture Quote #1

The most uninteresting thing for me is when somebody thinks too much about how they put themselves together Picture Quote #1

I don’t understand why everybody thinks that dressing casually is so much more comfortable. I’m as comfortable in a suit as I am in anything else Picture Quote #1

The poetics of the oppressed is essentially the poetics of liberation: the spectator no longer delegates power to the characters either to think or to act in his place. The spectator frees himself; he thinks and acts for himself! Theatre is action! Picture Quote #1

A person remains immature, whatever his age, as long as he thinks of himself as an exception to the human race Picture Quote #1

What probably distorts everything in life is that one is convinced that one is speaking the truth because one says what one thinks Picture Quote #1

You have to live your life according to what comforts you, not what the rest of your family thinks you ought to be doing Picture Quote #1

I believe that man was created to enjoy himself, indeed, that he can claim it as his legitimate right. In fact, as long as he lives, man cannot help enjoying himself, even if he tries not... Today the average person, when he hears the word pleasure, immediately thinks of something immoral. But nothing could be more wrong Picture Quote #1

The pro athlete is a sad tale. He signs a big contract and thinks he’s set for life. I didn’t think I was set for life, and I don’t now. As athletes, we are important, celebrities, in demand and rich. Then we are out of the game and we are not important, not celebrities, not in demand and not rich Picture Quote #1

Wherever a story comes from, whether it is a familiar myth or a private memory, the retelling exemplifies the making of a connection from one pattern to another: a potential translation in which narrative becomes parable and the once upon a time comes to stand for some renascent truth. This approach applies to all the incidents of everyday life: the phrase in the newspaper, the endearing or infuriating game of a toddler, the misunderstanding at the office. Our species thinks in metaphors and learns through stories Picture Quote #1

Everybody wants to feel that you’re writing to a certain demographic because that’s good business, but I’ve never done that... I tried to write stories that would interest me. I’d say, what would I like to read?... I don’t think you can do your best work if you’re writing for somebody else, because you never know what that somebody else really thinks or wants Picture Quote #1

I guess, as a conductor, one goes in and out of fashion. Your career starts with a bang, everyone thinks you’re wonderful, and then with middle age, something happens and you go into the wilderness Picture Quote #1

Nobody ever thinks a song is about them. Well, not when it’s mean. When it’s a good song everybody thinks it’s about them. And when it’s mean, nobody thinks it’s about them Picture Quote #1

I’m one of those people that thinks things happen for a reason, and you just have to look for the reason Picture Quote #1

When people talk about my business, my life, I’m really private. Maybe someone thinks I’m arrogant or something, but it’s just me Picture Quote #1

I’ve been getting in trouble my whole life and I really don’t care what anybody thinks of what I do on stage as a comic Picture Quote #1

It is impossible for someone to lie unless he thinks he knows the truth. A person who lies is thereby responding to the truth, and he is to that extent respectful of it Picture Quote #1

Consensus isn’t just about agreement. It’s about changing things around: You get a proposal, you work something out, people foresee problems, you do creative synthesis. At the end of it, you come up with something that everyone thinks is okay. Most people like it, and nobody hates it Picture Quote #1

I give culture this meaning: exercise of thought, acquisition of general ideas, habit of connecting causes and effects... I believe that it means thinking well, whatever one thinks, and therefore acting well, whatever one does Picture Quote #1

I really can’t help what someone thinks of me because they are reading a paper and choosing to believe it Picture Quote #1
