We need a much deeper understanding of exactly what it is our industrial society, in its present creation, is jeopardizing. We need a more profound perception of what is at stake  (Understanding Quotes) If you say that you reject violence when it exceeds the limits imposed by the needs of defense, they accuse you of pacifism, without understanding that violence is the whole essence of authoritarianism, just as the repudiation of violence is the whole essence of anarchism  (Understanding Quotes) Ideology is not the product of thought; it is the habit or the ritual of showing respect for certain formulas to which, for various reasons having to do with emotional safety, we have very strong ties of whose meaning and consequences in actuality we have no clear understanding  (Understanding Quotes) The human animal needs a freedom seldom mentioned, freedom from intrusion.

Any attempt to open out an adequately human vista onto the phenomena of undisturbed existence must include a critique of the most important idea of traditional biology, physiology, and psychology  (Understanding Quotes) The influence of prayer on the human mind and body is as demonstrable as that of secreting glands. Its results can be measured in terms of increased physical buoyancy, greater intellectual vigor, moral stamina, and a deeper understanding of the realities underlying human relationship  (Understanding Quotes) Insight, I believe, refers to the depth of understanding that comes by setting experiences, yours and mine, familiar and exotic, new and old, side by side, learning by letting them speak to one another  (Understanding Quotes) Infinities and indivisibles transcend our finite understanding, the former on account of their magnitude, the latter because of their smallness; Imagine what they are when combined  (Understanding Quotes) Whether man is disposed to yield to nature or to oppose her, he cannot do without a correct understanding of her language  (Understanding Quotes) We have been educated into believing someone else’s concept of the deity, and someone else’s standard of beauty.

They can make an actor feel he can do no wrong  (Understanding Quotes) One of the things you do as a writer and as a filmmaker is grasp for resonant symbols and imagery without necessarily fully understanding it yourself  (Understanding Quotes) A race is a work of art that people can look at and be affected in as many ways they’re capable of understanding  (Understanding Quotes) I didn’t play football in school, but I’ve been a fan of football all my life.
