Very Good Quotes

There’s a very good reason for why economics developed the way it did, and that is that in many situations, the assumption that people will exploit the opportunities available to them is very plausible, and it simplifies the analysis of how markets will behave Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe that if you do good, good things will happen. Everything is completely accidental and random. Sometimes bad things happen to very good people and sometimes good things happen to bad people. But at least if you try to do good things, then you’re spending your time doing something worthwhile Picture Quote #1

If anyone thinks they’d rather be in a different part of history, they’re probably not a very good student of history. Life sucked in the old days. People knew very little, and you were likely to die at a young age of some horrible disease. You’d probably have no teeth by now. It would be particularly awful if you were a woman Picture Quote #1

The mind wants to live forever, or to learn a very good reason why not. The mind wants the world to return its love, or its awareness... The mind’s sidekick, however, will settle for two eggs over easy. The dear, stupid body is easily satisfied as a spaniel. And, incredibly, the simple spaniel can lure the brawling mind to its dish. It is everlastingly funny that the proud, metaphysically ambitious mind will hush if you give it an egg Picture Quote #1

I am now convinced that I have never been much in love; for had I really experienced that pure and elevating passion, I should at present detest his very name, and wish him all manner of evil. But my feelings are not only cordial towards him; they are even impartial towards her. I cannot find out that I hate her at all, or that I am in the least unwilling to think her a very good sort of girl. There can be no love in all this Picture Quote #1

My own view of myself was that I was small and innocuous, a marshmallow compared to the others. I was a poor shot with a 22, for instance, and not very good with an ax. It took me a long time to figure out that the youngest in a family of dragons is still a dragon from the point of view of those who find dragons alarming Picture Quote #1

I saw a new world coming rapidly. More scientific, efficient, yes. More cures for the old sicknesses. Very good. But a harsh, cruel, world. And I saw a little girl, her eyes tightly closed, holding to her breast the old kind world, one that she knew in her heart could not remain, and she was holding it and pleading, never to let her go Picture Quote #1

The short conversation that follows eventually led to a tree religion. Its tenet of faith was this: a tree that was a good tree and led a clean decent and upstanding life could be assured of a future life after death. If it was very good indeed it would eventually be reincarnated as five thousand rolls of lavatory paper Picture Quote #1

A modest dress is a very good thing, if it be the genuine indication of a humble heart, and is to instruct; but it is a bad thing if it be the hypocritical disguise of a proud ambitious heart, and is to deceive. Let men be really as good as they seem to be, but not seem to be better than really they are Picture Quote #1

My mood has changed now. And the sun has gone behind the clouds. I’m in this mood I feel occasionally... this mood where there’s a very good friend nearby who I should be phoning. If only I could reach that friend and talk, then everything would be just fine. The dilemma is, of course, I just don’t know who that friend is. But in my heart I know my mood is merely me feeling disconnected from my true inner self Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day, some authors will endure and most, including some very good ones, will not. Why do I think reading is important? It is such an effective medium between mind and mind. We think largely in words. A medium made only of words doesn’t impose the barrier of any other medium. It is naked and unprotected communication. That’s how you get pregnant. May you always be so Picture Quote #1

For all our conceits about being the center of the universe, we live in a routine planet of a humdrum star stuck away in an obscure corner... on an unexceptional galaxy which is one of about 100 billion galaxies... That is the fundamental fact of the universe we inhabit, and it is very good for us to understand that Picture Quote #1

It occurred to me that building a company was the best way to align a group of people towards building something great. And its really... It’s a good organizational structure where you can really reward people. If they’re building something that’s good, you can you work with partners and reward them if the product that you’re developing work well. It’s a good way to get the best people involved to build something very good Picture Quote #1

There are no perfect human beings! Persons can be found who are good, very good indeed, in fact, great. There do in fact exist creators, seers, sages, saints, shakers, and movers... even if they are uncommon and do not come by the dozen. And yet these very same people can at times be boring, irritating, petulant, selfish, angry, or depressed. To avoid disillusionment with human nature, we must first give up our illusions about it Picture Quote #1

So plain that no one, high or low, ever does mistake it, except in a plainly selfish way; for although volume upon volume is written to prove slavery a very good thing, we never hear of the man who wishes to take the good of it, by being a slave himself Picture Quote #1

I’ve had moments where I didn’t hit the ball very good coming in, and you’ve got to turn it around. That’s the whole idea of practicing and really working on being focused on what I’m doing and being committed to what I’m doing. I know what the fix is and I’ve proven it to myself, and it’s just a matter of going out there and executing it consistently over 72 holes Picture Quote #1

The longest journey begins with a single step, not with the turn of an ignition key. That’s the best thing about walking, the journey itself. It doesn’t much matter whether you get where you’re going or not. You’ll get there anyway. Every good hike brings you eventually back home. Right where you started Picture Quote #1

A company is simply a group of people. And as a leader of people, you have to be a great listener, you have to be a great motivator, you have to be very good at praising and looking for the best in people. People are no different from flowers. If you water flowers, they flourish. If you praise people, they flourish. That’s a critical attribute of a leader Picture Quote #1

Miramax can buy a small independent movie that isn’t very good, but because it has great relationships with different theaters, it can get into a big theater Picture Quote #1

If we can modernise the workforce, make them better qualified, have this framework of qualifications, then I think they have a very good case for more money Picture Quote #1

They have very good individual players, but they need the collective game. And they still do not have it although there are now only six months left to go Picture Quote #1

The way you remember the past depends upon your hope for the future. And if what you see in your future has no hope, it has no potential, then you view the past that brought you to here as not very good Picture Quote #1

I have, I think to do a play a year is very good if you can afford the time and the energy because it’s difficult to do, it’s really the actors medium of course, because you’re really out there and nobody’s yelling cut so, yeah I have Picture Quote #1

I was never very good at exams, having a poor memory and finding the examination process rather artificial, and there never seemed to be enough time to follow up things that really interested me Picture Quote #1

I think when I’m in love, I really am very good with calling, little faxes, and visiting and I really put a lot of effort into it. I’m really not the one that’s not available because of work and I’m very sad when I actually leave Picture Quote #1

It ended up being a very good thing, because they finally started writing for the character, and I realized that you have to go to work with a purpose. I learned from the experience and then moved on Picture Quote #1

Bubbles was a very good dancer. Tremendous dancer. He was one of our leading dancers of the country at that time. and, of course, he didn’t have much of a voice Picture Quote #1

I can come off as pretty arrogant, but it’s because I know I’m right. I’m very, very good at writing protocols. I’ve accomplished more working on my own than I ever did as part of a team Picture Quote #1

He’s very alive in a scene. He’s a very good actor to act with. Even though through most of the picture he’s blind, there are many places early in the picture I got to be with him before he was blind. Like convincing him in the office to do the picture Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have time for my children much. I wasn’t a very good parent; I had a pretty unhappy home life Picture Quote #1
