Text Quotes
His wiles were witty and his fame far known, every king's daughter sought him for her own, yet he was nothing to be won or lost. All lands to him were Ithaca: love-tossed he loathed the fraud, yet would not bed alone  (Wo Quotes) Entrance and exit wounds are silvered clean, The track aches only when the rain reminds. The one-legged man forgets his leg of wood, The one-armed man his jointed wooden arm. The blinded man sees with his ears and hands As much or more than once with both his eyes  (Wo Quotes) War was return of Earth to ugly Earth, war was foundering of sublimities, extinction of each happy art and faith by which the world had still kept head in air  (Wo Quotes) There is one story and one story only that will prove worth your telling, whether as learned bard or gifted child; To it all lines or lesser guards belong that startle with their shining such common stories as they stray into  (Wo Quotes) Then all you lovers have good heed vex not young love in word or deed: love never leaves an unpaid debt, he will not pardon nor forget  (Wo Quotes) I am an old man with my bones very brittle, though I am a poor old man worth very little, yet I suck at my long pipe at peace in the sun, I do not fret nor much regret that my work is done  (Wo Quotes) Patriotism, in the trenches, was too remote a sentiment, and at once rejected as fit only for civilians, or prisoners. A new arrival who talked patriotism would soon be told to cut it out  (Wo Quotes) Hardly one soldier in a hundred was inspired by religious feeling of even the crudest kind. It would have been difficult to remain religious in the trenches even if one had survived the irreligion of the training battalion at home  (Wo Quotes) Slowly he rose, mechanically wiping his hands upon his cloak. A dark scowl had settled on his somber brow. Yet he made no wild, reckless vow, swore no oath by saints or devils. Men shall die for this, he said coldly  (Wo Quotes) It would be a contradiction in terms if the oppressors not only defended but actually implemented a liberating education  (Wo Quotes) Money is the measure of all things, and profit the primary goal. For the oppressors, what is worthwhile is to have more - always more - even at the cost of the oppressed having less or having nothing. For them, to be is to have  (Wo Quotes) Implicit in the banking concept is the assumption of a dichotomy between human beings and the world: a person is merely in the world, not with the world or with others; the individual is spectator, not re-creator  (Wo Quotes) Liberation is a praxis: the action and reflection of men and women upon their world in order to transform it  (Wo Quotes) In sum: banking theory and practice, as immobilizing and fixating forces, fail to acknowledge men and women as historical beings; problem-posing theory and practice take the people's historicity as their starting point  (Wo Quotes) Indeed, some revolutionaries brand as innocents, dreamers, or even reactionaries; those who would challenge this educational practice. But one does not liberate people by alienating them. Authentic liberation - the process of humanization - is not another deposit to be made in men  (Wo Quotes) In problem-posing education, people develop their power to perceive critically the way they exist in the world with which and in which they find themselves; they come to see the world not as a static reality, but as a reality in process, in transformation  (Wo Quotes) Authentic thinking, thinking that is concerned about reality, does not take place in ivory tower isolation, but only in communication. If it is true that thought has meaning only when generated by action upon the world, the subordination of students to teachers becomes impossible  (Wo Quotes) Education as the exercise of domination stimulates the credulity of students, with the ideological intent (often not perceived by educators) of indoctrinating them to adapt to the world of oppression  (Wo Quotes) Some may think that to affirm dialogue - the encounter of women and men in the world in order to transform the world - is naively and subjectively idealistic. There is nothing, however, more real or concrete than people in the world and with the world, than humans with other humans  (Wo Quotes) The oppressors develop a series of methods precluding any presentation of the world as a problem and showing it rather as a fixed entity, as something given--something to which people, as mere spectators, must adapt  (Wo Quotes) In order for the oppressed to unite they must first cut the umbilical cord of magic and myth which binds them to the world of oppression; the unity which links them to each other must be of a different nature  (Wo Quotes) I don't actually have a lot of discipline. I've worked hard at music. But I feel like you know, I felt like kind of natural at it. I always had a knack for it  (Wo Quotes) It's true, there's a lot of melancholy in my music. I don't know why, I'm not a melancholy person. I've always been drawn to it. Ever since I was a kid, if I had an album I would play the ballads on repeat  (Wo Quotes) My first two records are so simply constructed. The reason isn't because I wanted to make simple music. It's because I don't really have the chops  (Wo Quotes) I love film, and I would love to be a part of something that people universally love as a piece of film. Sure. Of course I would. And I would love to take acting lessons, and see that side of it someday. But I'm a musician  (Wo Quotes) I would love to make a real jazz album someday because I never have. But that's something I'm not in a rush to do  (Wo Quotes) Songwriting is something I really need to work on. I don't have very many songs but I really love it. I would love to be a great song writer some day  (Wo Quotes) The pop world is cool, but I never really thought of myself as part of it or wanting to be a part of it because I'm on a label that's not really like that. They're not trying to dress me up, they're not trying to do things like that. I feel like I'm sort of separate from that, actually  (Wo Quotes) A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life  (Wo Quotes) At home I am a nice guy: but I don't want the world to know. Humble people, I've found, don't get very far  (Wo Quotes)
