Text Quotes
Surely the day will come when color means nothing more than the skin tone, when religion is seen uniquely as a way to speak one’s soul; when birth places have the weight of a throw of the dice and all men are born free, when understanding breeds love and brotherhood  (Understanding Quotes) We become full human agents, capable of understanding ourselves, and hence of defining our identity, through our acquisition of rich human languages of expression  (Understanding Quotes) I claim no right to myself, no right to this understanding, this will, these affections that are in me. Neither do I have any right to this body or its members, no right to this tongue, to these hands, feet, ears or eyes. I have given myself clear away and not retained anything of my own  (Understanding Quotes) It is quite clear that between love and understanding there is a very close link... He who loves understands, and he who understands loves. One who feels understood feels loved, and one who feels loved feels sure of being understood  (Understanding Quotes) It would be something that another person had written down without understanding its significance; just a sentence or two that would be like a flash of light  (Understanding Quotes) There’s nothing more intimate in life than simply being understood. And understanding someone else  (Understanding Quotes) People understand me so poorly that they don’t even understand my complaint about them not understanding me  (Understanding Quotes) Moral crusaders with zeal but no ethical understanding are likely to give us solutions that are worse than the problems  (Understanding Quotes) Two people can only live as one when each is prepared to give and receive trust and understanding. Above that lies respect. Without respect for how the other feels, no marriage is worthwhile  (Understanding Quotes) Understanding comes hard to persons of high rank who are accustomed to phony lifestyles that involve no daily work  (Understanding Quotes) I’m thinking of how unexpected and yet oddly preordained life can be. Events are upon you in an instant, unforseen and without warning, and often times marked with disappointment and tragedy, but equally often leading to a better understanding of the bittersweet truth of life  (Understanding Quotes) I would simply ask why so many critics, so many writers, so many philosophers take such satisfaction in professing that the experience of a work of art is ineffable, that it escapes by definition all rational understanding; why are they so eager to concede without a struggle the defeat of knowledge; and where does their irrepressible need to belittle rational understanding come from, this rage to affirm the irreduci  (Understanding Quotes) Beyond the pain, life continues to be sweet. The basics are still there. Beauty, food and friendship, reservoirs of love and understanding. Later, possibly not yet, you are going to need others who will encourage you to make new beginnings. Welcome them. They will help you move on, to cherish happy memories and confront the painful ones with more than bitterness and anger  (Understanding Quotes) All is love... All is love. With love comes understanding. With understanding comes patience. And then time stops. And everything is now  (Understanding Quotes) Life is short for those who are truly able to understand that one day the entire world will come to a complete end. Not everyone is capable of that. Not everyone has the ability to comprehend what going away for all eternity really implies. There are too many distractions, hour by hour, minute by minute, to hinder such an understanding  (Understanding Quotes) I was already dozing off in the shade, dreaming that the rustling trees were my many selves explaining themselves all at the same time so that I could not make out a single word. My life was a beautiful mystery on the verge of understanding, always on the verge! Think of it!  (Understanding Quotes) We live in the shadow of crime with the unspoken understanding that we are victims.. of fear, of violence, of social impotence. A man has risen to show us that the power is, ans always has been, in our hands. We are under siege. He’s showing us that we can resist  (Understanding Quotes) A person who pulls himself up from a low environment via the bootstrap route has two choices. Having risen above his environment, he can forget it; or, he can rise above it and never forget it and keep compassion and understanding in his heart for those he has left behind him in the cruel upclimb  (Understanding Quotes) If we want to change something, we must begin with understanding. But if we want to love something, we must begin with acceptance  (Understanding Quotes) He’d only ever seen a gun once, a smaller one on the hip of that old deputy, a gun he’d always figured was more for show. He stuffed a fistful of deadly rounds in his pocket, thinking how each one could end an individual life, and understanding why such things were forbidden. Killing a man should be harder than waving a length of pipe in their direction. It should take long enough for one’s conscience to get in the way  (Understanding Quotes) Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he could have discovered himself, that child is kept from inventing it and consequently from understanding it completely  (Understanding Quotes) Knowledge is simply a kind of fuel; it needs the motor of understanding to convert it into power  (Understanding Quotes) It’s what we chase but never find. It is the mystery of our lives, the understanding that even when we have everything we want it is one day to leave us. It’s the something unseen, the lurking devastation, the darkness that gives our lives dimension  (Understanding Quotes) If you don’t understand, ask questions. If you’re uncomfortable about asking questions, say you are uncomfortable about asking questions and then ask anyway. It’s easy to tell when a question is coming from a good place. Then listen some more. Sometimes people just want to feel heard. Here’s to possibilities of friendship and connection and understanding  (Understanding Quotes) We all have families who are longing for peace in the world and an end to the suffering caused by poverty, disease, and hunger. Untold numbers of our friends, our neighbors, our parents, and our children, are hoping that there is more understanding, more generosity, more genuine friendship, and more caring among people of all faiths and cultures  (Understanding Quotes) His mother saw that he was not lonesome, and because she was an understanding mother, even though she was a cow, she let him just sit there and be happy  (Understanding Quotes) The function off the historian is neither to love the past nor to emancipate himself from the past, but to master and understand it as the key to the understanding of the present  (Understanding Quotes) Of true knowledge at any time, a good part is merely convenient, necessary indeed to the worker, but not to an understanding of his subject: One can judge a building without knowing where to buy the bricks; one can understand a violin sonata without knowing how to score for the instrument. The work may in fact be better understood without a knowledge of the details of its manufacture, of attention to these tends to distract from meaning and effect  (Understanding Quotes) Knowledge about the process being modeled starts fairly low, then increases as understanding is obtained and tapers off to a high value at the end  (Understanding Quotes) There is a difference between being a leader and being a boss. Both are based on authority. A boss demands blind obedience; a leader earns his authority through understanding and trust  (Understanding Quotes)
