Understand Quotes

I have thought about the nature of this creative process and have reached a somewhat aberrant conclusion. I don’t understand it and I don’t think anyone else does either Picture Quote #1

You have to deeply understand the essence of a product in order to be able to get rid of the parts that are not essential Picture Quote #1

You ask a philosopher a question and after he or she has talked for a bit, you don’t understand your question any more Picture Quote #1

... while there is such a thing as correctness in ethics, in interpretation, in mathematics, the way to understand that is not by trying to model it on the ways in which we get things right in physics Picture Quote #1

There are lots of cases where we know more about how the world works than we do about how we know how it works. That’s no paradox. Understanding the structure of galaxies is one thing, understanding how we understand the structure of galaxies is quite another. There isn’t the slightest reason why the first should wait on the second and, in point of historical fact, it didn’t. This bears a lot of emphasis; it turns up in philosophy practically everywhere you look Picture Quote #1

Normativity, I believe, is very different from motivating force. Neither includes, or implies, the other. Other animals can be motivated by their desires and beliefs. Only we can understand and respond to reasons Picture Quote #1

And just as we acquaint ourselves with materials, just as we must understand functions, so we must become familiar with the psychological and spiritual factors of our day. No cultural activity is possible otherwise; for we are dependent on the spirit of our time Picture Quote #1

If someone needs to express their gender in a way that is different, that is okay, and they should not be denied healthcare. They should not be bullied. They don’t deserve to be victims of violence... That’s what people need to understand, that it’s okay and that if you are uncomfortable with it, then you need to look at yourself Picture Quote #1

Our bodies, speeches and minds need to be trained so that they will do anything we want. We can cry or laugh at once when we want to. Then it will be a natural response; we will cry when it is time to cry, and laugh when we should laugh. Do you understand? We can get angry when necessary; we can be gentle if we have to. We will completely become our own master. Then, no matter what we want to do, it will benefit the world. It is not difficult to attain this stage; all we need to do is to mediate Picture Quote #1

The major job was getting people to understand that they had something within their power that they could use, and it could only be used if they understood what was happening and how group action could counter violence Picture Quote #1

If you understand what the other team is trying to do to stop you, it makes your job easier Picture Quote #1

We all understand what we signed up for, but then again, you don’t want this to be a game that puts people in wheelchairs at age 40 Picture Quote #1

It’s such a rarity to have women in senior powerful positions. We can name them all. Fact is, women can handle power and handle it well. That’s something I’d like a lot more women to understand Picture Quote #1

You are in physical existence to learn and understand that your energy, translated into feelings, thoughts and emotions, causes all experience. There are no exceptions Picture Quote #1

The young generation can influence their elders and can make them understand the environmental problems that are faced by us today. The youth can make them see that our environment is deteriorating day by day Picture Quote #1

I want you to understand something: I am loving father who would do anything for his kids, whether they are mine or belonging to others in my family Picture Quote #1

Which isn’t the truth, you understand. At least you understand that in your head... but not always in your heart Picture Quote #1

Write what you care about and understand. Writers should never try to outguess the marketplace in search of a salable idea; the simple truth is that all good books will eventually find a publisher if the writer tries hard enough, and a central secret to writing a good book is to write on that people like you will enjoy Picture Quote #1

Ultimately success or failure in photographing people depends on the photographer’s ability to understand his fellow man Picture Quote #1

There is so much more to the things that we think we know from afar. The close you get the more complex it is, not the simpler it is to understand Picture Quote #1

Every day I am aware of the flow and constant change; perhaps I am at the edge of discovering what more our bodies might be able to teach about the spirit of life. At least, I am always exploring and trying to understand our relationship to the whole universe Picture Quote #1

The thing that keeps you scrambling over the rocks, risking snakes, and swatting at the flies is the view. It is only your enjoyment of and commitment to what you see, not to what you rationally understand, that balances the otherwise absurd investment of labor Picture Quote #1

Teachers at all levels encourage the idea that you have to talk about things in order to understand them, because they wouldn’t have jobs, otherwise. But it’s phony, you know Picture Quote #1

The key to teaching anything is to remember what it was like not to understand that thing. That’s a very hard thing to do. Every time you come to understand something you didn’t understand before, you are transformed. You become a different person from who you were before. The key to teaching someone else to understand that same thing is to remember your former, untransformed self. If you can do that, I think you can teach anything, even physics Picture Quote #1

Man is dragged hither and thither, at one moment by the blind instincts of the forest, at the next by the strange intuitions of a higher self whose rationale he doubts and does not understand Picture Quote #1

Kyoto protocol is not a simple environmental issue, where you can say scientists are not unanimous. This is about international relations, this is about the economy, about trying to create a level playing field for big businesses throughout the world. You have to understand what is at stake, and that is why it is serious, Picture Quote #1

We have to understand the ubiquity of energy in everything we do. Energy is core to our economy and it brings with it environmental challenges, and it’s core to our security challenges Picture Quote #1

I still do not understand why we don’t have people on the streets every single day raising their voices for climate Picture Quote #1

I thank you for my friends, for those who understand me better than I understand myself. For those who know me at my worst, and still like me. For those who have forgiven me when I had no right to expect to be forgiven. Help me to be as true to my friends as I would wish them to be to me Picture Quote #1

Understand this well: there is something holy, something divine hidden in the most ordinary situations, and it is up to each one of you to discover it Picture Quote #1
