Text Quotes
The only things that distinguish the photographer from everybody else are his pictures: they alone are the basis for our special interest in him. If pictures cannot be understood without knowing details of the artist’s private life, then that is a reason for faulting them; major art, by definition, can stand independent of its maker (Understood Quotes)
There is something wrong with a work of art if it can be understood by a policeman (Understood Quotes)
She wishes her grandmother had not been so protective, and that she understood better what passes between a man and woman. As it is, she simply enjoys the feelings and wonders if they are what lightning is made of, for everything comes back to the weather. Tears like rain. Smiles like the sun. Hair as dry as sand and fear like the dark ocean (Understood Quotes)
There are... two kinds of people in this world, those who long to be understood and those who long to be misunderstood. It is the irony of life that neither is gratified (Understood Quotes)
I don’t mind expressing my opinions and speaking out against injustice. I would be doing this even if I wasn’t a writer. I grew up in a household that believed in social justice. I have always understood myself as having an obligation to stand on the side of the silenced, the oppressed, and the mistreated (Understood Quotes)
I’ve never understood activity holidays since we seem to have far too much activity in our daily lives as it is. Find a culture where loafing is the order of the day and where they don’t understand our need to be constantly doing things. Find somewhere you can have a hammock holiday (Understood Quotes)
Life can only be understood backwards but you have to live it forward. You can only do that by stepping into uncertainty and by trying, within this uncertainty, to create your own islands of security... The new security will be a belief that... if this doesn’t work out you could do something else. You are your own security (Understood Quotes)
When children feel understood, their loneliness and hurt diminish. When children are understood, their love for their parent is deepened. A parent’s sympathy serves as emotional first aid for bruised feelings. When we genuinely acknowledge a child’s plight and voice her disappointment, she often gathers the strength to face reality (Understood Quotes)
Some people think to be strong is to never feel pain. However the strongest people are the ones that have felt pain, understood it, accepted it and learned from it (Understood Quotes)
The whole problem with news on television comes down to this: all the words uttered in an hour of news coverage could be printed on a page of a newspaper. And the world cannot be understood in one page (Understood Quotes)
The fundamental concepts of physical science, it is now understood, are abstractions, framed by our mind, so as to bring order to an apparent chaos of phenomena (Understood Quotes)
We are equal inhabitants of a paradise of individuals in which everybody has the right to be understood (Understood Quotes)
Turkeys are misunderstood. Once I adopted turkeys, I understood this large bird to be a great companion (Understood Quotes)
She felt the familiar calmness of an emergency, but she understood the falseness of that feeling, now that it was her life at stake (Understood Quotes)
It is hard to communicate understanding because that is something you get by living with a problem for a long time. You study it, perhaps for years, you get the feel of it and it is in your bones. You can’t convey that to anyone else. Having studied the problem for five years you may be able to present it in such a way that it would take somebody else less time to get to that point than it took you. But if they haven’t struggled with the problem and seen all the pitfalls, then they haven’t really understood it (Understood Quotes)
All narratives, even the confusing, are implicitly hopeful; they speak of a world that can be ordered, and thus understood (Understood Quotes)
Identities are the beginning of everything. They are how something is recognized and understood. What could be better than that? (Understood Quotes)
This part of optics, when well understood, shows us how we may make things a very long distance off appear as if placed very close, and large near things appear very small, and how we may make small things placed at a distance appear any size we want, so that it may be possible for us to read the smallest letters at incredible distances, or to count sand, or seed, or any sort or minute objects (Understood Quotes)
The entire repertoire of our life experiences can be accessed and activated from the body in movement …every part and function of the body can also be understood as metaphors for the expression of our being (Understood Quotes)
Fear and love were sometimes the same thing both necessary unavoidable. Now she understood that it was okay to bleed if you know how to heal (Understood Quotes)
People expect that they should be understood by you but seldom put in an effort to understand you (Understood Quotes)
Among friends one has the privilege of saying nothing; the civility consists in the assumption that one’s silence will be civilly understood. I can imagine a small gathering of friends who say nothing all evening: they recoil from saying anything that the others don’t want to hear; and their silence would be the subtlest courtesy (Understood Quotes)
International affairs will be placed on a better footing when it is understood that there is no way of punishing a people for the crimes of its rulers (Understood Quotes)
Our relatives form the natural setting of our childhood. We understand ourselves best and are best understood by others through the persons who came nearest to us in our earliest years (Understood Quotes)
I am not looking to be understood or liked. Like me or not, I don’t care. I am an outsider, that is the way I was brought up (Understood Quotes)
Sex cannot be contained within a definition of physical pleasure, it cannot be understood as merely itself for it has stood for too long as a profound connection between human beings (Understood Quotes)
I don’t believe for a minute that women really want to be understood by men (Understood Quotes)
No one can develop freely in this world and find a full life without feeling understood by at least one person (Understood Quotes)
The more clearly a principle is understood by the intellect, the more inexcusable is the neglect to put it into practice (Understood Quotes)
... but every person who does serious time with a keyboard is attempting to translate his version of the world into words so that he might be understood (Understood Quotes)
