Text Quotes
We’ll surely stop the work of all western Christian and eastern religions, and also Islam  (Western Quotes) There is usually an ‘X factor’ that is hard to define. For HTC, I think it is our culture. We embrace the best of our Eastern roots and combine it with the best of the Western cultures where we have leadership and offices. It makes the culture colorful as well as energetic and creative.  (Western Quotes) Toward the end of the Second World War, anew consciousness arose amongst the publicand policy makers of the Western World. Afterten years of crippling economic depressionand another five at war, the public demandedsomething new from their disintegratingurban environments.  (Western Quotes) Western democracies exalt the ideal of social equality, but our economic system arguably emerged from 16th-century Calvinism, a religion whose members believed that God showed favor by bestowing wealth and other forms of success on what they called ‘the chosen.’  (Western Quotes) Those of us who lived under communism for most of our lives were looking toward the Western world because of its values, emphasis on democracy, individual liberties and freedom, and economic prosperity.  (Western Quotes) What happened in the Western world was that Plato ceased to be the way people thought. Aristotle was rediscovered, and the modern, educated world moved toward Aristotelian thinking.  (Western Quotes) Western society has many flaws, and it is good for an educated person to have thought some of these through, even at the expense of losing a lecture or two to tear gas.  (Western Quotes) The decline of education in North America and I suppose in Western Europe makes it harder to have a common body of references.  (Western Quotes) I don’t know why people have divided the whole world into two groups, west and east. Education is neither eastern nor western. Education is education and it’s the right of every human being.  (Western Quotes) Not only is patriotism disdained, the very basis for pride in one’s country and culture is systematically undermined in our educational institutions at all levels. The achievements of western civilization are buried in histories that portray every human sin found here as if they were peculiarities of the west.  (Western Quotes) In Western dream interpretation, it’s often connected to psychotherapy and looking at the personality and what’s going on in your life. In Eastern dream telling, many times there’s this idea of a special gift. And without this gift, you could study and study, but you’d never really become an effective dream teller.  (Western Quotes) The health-care sector certainly employs more people and more machines than it did. But there have been no great strides in service. In Western Europe, most primary-care practices now use electronic health records and offer after-hours care; in the United States, most don’t.  (Western Quotes) Tanpinar presciently feared that to embrace the western conception of progress was to be mentally enslaved by a whole new epistemology, one that compartmentalised knowledge and concealed an instrumental view of human beings as no more than things to be manipulated.  (Western Quotes) Germany has great skill levels, great infrastructure, high-quality plant. If you go to the U.K., we’re very creative, and we’ve got the language, but energy costs are pretty much the most expensive in the Western world; pensions are pretty expensive, and the skills are significantly below those in Germany and the U.S.  (Western Quotes) Literature - Eastern and Western - abounds with stories, myths, legends about the search for youth, for eternal life.  (Western Quotes) Aviation has struck a delicately balanced world, a world where stability was already giving way to the pressure of new dynamic forces, a world dominated by a mechanical, materialist, Western European civilization.  (Western Quotes) There are people in our world today and unfortunately in our political system, they do not believe in evil. They have the modern, western, secular mind set. They don’t believe evil exists. They are exactly the ones who are in danger of getting blindsided by evil. Because they’re not prepared for it.  (Western Quotes) East and Gulf Coast states are at risk of hurricanes; prairie and other central and southern states are constantly threatened by tornados; and western states commonly face damaging droughts. Extreme weather does not discriminate by American geography.  (Western Quotes) The Jews always complained, kvetching about false gods, and erected the biggest false God, Jehovah, in middle of western civilization.  (Western Quotes) The Treatise tries to analyze not only modern Western families, but also those in other cultures and the changes in family structure during the past several centuries.  (Western Quotes) While teaching a course on global development at Uppsala University in Sweden, I realized our students didn’t have a fact-based worldview. They talked about ‘we’ and ‘them.’ They thought there were two groups of countries: the Western world, with small families and long lives, and the Third World, with large families and short lives.  (Western Quotes) Have you read ‘The Grapes of Wrath?’ That was my family. My dad was a sharecropper in western Oklahoma. When the dust storms came and everything got wiped out, they came to California. The guys with the mattresses on the tops of their cars in the movie? That was the way it was.  (Western Quotes) A Western woman is not her brother’s or her father’s property. She’s just herself. She can choose her own lifestyle. But in a Muslim family, the honor of the man is between the legs of a woman.  (Western Quotes) It is obvious to any observer that in every western country the increase of importance of public schools has been at least coincident with the relaxation of older family ties.  (Western Quotes) As far as I’m concerned, you’re a feminist by default if you’re born in the Western world right now.  (Western Quotes) New York waiters, probably the surliest in the Western world . . . are better images of their city than that journalistic favorite the taxi driver.  (Western Quotes) I think some of my favorite Australian films were shot by people that are not Australian. And I think when Dean Semler did ‘Dances with Wolves,’ for instance, that’s a very different-looking Western than what you’ve seen much of before. It’s very rich, color-wise. But we’ve got our own very proud thing going on.  (Western Quotes) I want to do a Western so bad because I want to ride horses and act. Those are two of my favorite things in the world to do. I want to do that.  (Western Quotes) I think there is no reason for us to bring to Islamism or political Islam the fear and ignorance of Western commentators and their hysterical vocabulary.  (Western Quotes) I would say both Western psychology and Eastern paths would recognize that we get caught up in feeling like a separate self and an unworthy self.  (Western Quotes)
