It is asked instead to immediately justify everything that happens... spectacular domination has cut down the vast tree of scientific knowledge in order to make itself a truncheon  (Understand Quotes) The creation itself is full of griefs. How can one understand joy if there is no sorrow? And how can everyone be happy at the same time?  (Understand Quotes) I do things differently, because I don’t go by a rule book, because I lead from the heart, not the head, and albeit that’s got me into trouble in my work, I understand that  (Understand Quotes) To understand what music has to be, you have to live for music.

Despite the general pessimistic attitude in the world today, I am nothing but an optimist  (Understand Quotes) Today we live in a chaos of straight lines, in a jungle of straight lines. If you do not believe this, take the trouble to count the straight lines which surround you. Then you will understand, for you will never finish counting  (Understand Quotes) In the life of each of us, I said to myself, there is a place remote and islanded, and given to endless regret or secret happiness; we are each the uncompanioned hermit and recluse of an hour or a day; we understand our fellows of the cell to whatever age of history they may belong  (Understand Quotes) The colored people of this country know and understand the white people better than the white people know and understand them  (Understand Quotes) There are people who actually like programming. I don’t understand why they like programming  (Understand Quotes) The instant of birth is exquisite. Pain and joy are one at this moment. Ever after, the dim recollection is so sweet that we speak to our children with a gratitude they never understand  (Understand Quotes) It is the man of science, eager to have his every opinion regenerated, his every idea rationalized, by drinking at the fountain of fact, and devoting all the energies of his life to the cult of truth, not as he understands it, but as he does not yet understand it, that ought properly to be called a philosopher  (Understand Quotes) Time is a brisk wind, for each hour it brings something new... but who can understand and measure its sharp breath, its mystery and its design?  (Understand Quotes) The writer writes in order to teach himself, to understand himself, to satisfy himself; the publishing of his ideas, though it brings gratification, is a curious anticlimax  (Understand Quotes) The bird with the thorn in its breast, it follows an immutable law; it is driven by it knows not what to impale itself, and die singing. At the very instant the thorn enters there is no awareness in it of the dying to come; it simply sings and sings until there is not the life left to utter another note. But we, when we put the thorns in our breasts, we know. We understand. And still we do it. Still we do it  (Understand Quotes) Children, of course, don’t understand at first that they are being cheated.

It is sometimes not until the third grade that their teachers start to see the warning signs of failure. By the fourth grade many children see it too  (Understand Quotes) Of the whole public not a handful can understand the artist’s point of view or the writer’s conscience  (Understand Quotes) A vague uneasiness: the police.

He cannot altogether be resisted; because, if he understands us, he can make us understand him, through the word, the look, or other symbol  (Understand Quotes) I guess what everyone wants more than anything else is to be loved.
