Text Quotes
The discovery that mass changes with velocity, a discovery made when minute bodies came under consideration, finally forced surrender of the notion that mass is a fixed and inalienable possession of ultimate elements or individuals, so that time is now considered to be their fourth dimension  (To Be Quotes) Freedom of thought and of expression are not mere rights to be claimed. They have their roots deep in the existence of individuals as developing careers in time. Their denial and abrogation is an abdication of individuality and a virtual rejection of time as opportunity  (To Be Quotes) If ever there was a cause, if ever there can be a cause, worthy to be upheld by all of toil or sacrifice that the human heart can endure, it is the cause of Education  (To Be Quotes) Treat the other man's faith gently; it is all he has to believe with. His mind was created for his own thoughts, not yours or mine  (To Be Quotes) How often our bosom swells and our temples throb to a thought which proves itself not to be worth anything but for the exaltation we feel while the swelling and throbbing are going on, which after all is something  (To Be Quotes) Twenty is in hot haste to become a year older and cast its first vote, which Forty will know was cast like the legendary pearls  (To Be Quotes) Though the fool is to be pitied, still he is spared watching spurious wisdom turn to ashes in his head  (To Be Quotes) Your responsibility as a parent is not as great as you might imagine. You need not supply the world with the next conqueror of disease or major motion-picture star. If your child simply grows up to be someone who does not use the word collectible as a noun, you can consider yourself an unqualified success  (To Be Quotes) Just let me go, we have to be able to criticize what we love, to say what we have to say 'cause if you're not trying to make something better, then as far as I can tell, you are just in the way  (To Be Quotes) My idea of feminism is self-determination, and it's very open-ended: every woman has the right to become herself, and do whatever she needs to do  (To Be Quotes) I used to be a superhero. No one could touch me, not even myself. You are like a phone booth that I somehow stumbled into, And now look at me, I am just like everybody else  (To Be Quotes) There's a crowd of people harbored in every person, there are so many roles that we play. And you've decided to love me for eternity. I'm still deciding who I want to be today  (To Be Quotes) But what if no one's watching? What if when we're dead, we are just dead? What if there's no time to lose? What if there's things we gotta do, Things that need to be said?  (To Be Quotes) One of my kids was born in 1968. There were going to be political difficulties, but they were never going to have that level of hatred and contempt that my brothers and my sister and myself were exposed to  (To Be Quotes) What I think the political correctness debate is really about is the power to be able to define. The definers want the power to name. And the defined are now taking that power away from them  (To Be Quotes) Tell us what it is to be a woman so that we may know what it is to be a man. What moves at the margin. What it is to have no home in this place. To be set adrift from the one you knew. What it is to live at the edge of towns that cannot bear your company  (To Be Quotes) When a thing is said to be not worth refuting you may be sure that either it is flagrantly stupid - in which case all comment is superfluous - or it is something formidable, the very crux of the problem  (To Be Quotes) And if it is grievous to be doomed one day to cease to be, perhaps it would be more grievous still to go on being always oneself, and no more than oneself, without being able to be at the same time other, without being able to be at the same time everything else, without being able to be all  (To Be Quotes) At times to be silent is to lie. You will win because you have enough brute force. But you will not convince. For to convince you need to persuade. And in order to persuade you would need what you lack: Reason and Right  (To Be Quotes) As women, we have more of a tendency to be people-pleasers, and I know a lot of women who are not vocal about what makes them happy  (To Be Quotes) You know, that might be the answer - to act boastfully about something we ought to be ashamed of. That's a trick that never seems to fail  (To Be Quotes) I'm not even sure we really had that much need for God as much as we did seem to have a need to believe in Him  (To Be Quotes) If the chance ever comes to you to fall in love, grab it, every time. You might always live to regret it, but you won't find anything to beat it, and you won't know if it will come to you once more  (To Be Quotes) The family is the basic cell of government: it is where we are trained to believe that we are human beings or that we are chattel, it is where we are trained to see the sex and race divisions and become callous to injustice even if it is done to ourselves, to accept as biological a full system of authoritarian government  (To Be Quotes) For women... Bras, panties, bathing suits, and other stereotypical gear are visual reminders of a commercial, idealized feminine image that our real and diverse female bodies can't possibly fit. Without these visual references, each individual woman's body demands to be accepted on its own terms. We stop being comparatives. We begin to be unique  (To Be Quotes) Life is a series of collisions with the future; it is not the sum of what we have been, but what we yearn to be  (To Be Quotes) The characteristic of the hour is that the commonplace mind, knowing itself to be commonplace, has the assurance to proclaim the rights of the commonplace and to impose them wherever it will  (To Be Quotes) Under the species of Syndicalism and Fascism there appears for the first time in Europe a type of man who does not want to give reasons or to be right, but simply shows himself resolved to impose his opinions  (To Be Quotes) Man must not only make himself: the weightiest thing he has to do is to determine what he is going to be. He is causa sui to the second power  (To Be Quotes) Man's being is made of such strange stuff as to be partly akin to nature and partly not, at once natural and extranatural, a kind of ontological centaur, half immersed in nature, half transcending it  (To Be Quotes)
