Text Quotes
The human mind works at low efficiency. Twenty percent is the figure usually given. When, momentarily, there is a flash of greater power, it is termed a hunch, or insight, or intuition  (Works Quotes) A child does not notice the greatness and the beauty of nature and the splendor of God in his works  (Works Quotes) A good compromise, a good piece of legislation, is like a good sentence; or a good piece of music. Everybody can recognize it. They say, ‘Huh. It works. It makes sense.’  (Works Quotes) After the Second World War, I returned to California to study composition with Darius Milhaud, who wrote wonderful works like ‘Le Boeuf sur le Toit’ and ‘La Cretion du Monde.’ I especially enjoy his work for two pianos, ‘Scaramouche  (Works Quotes) And currently, there are four to five new works in the pipeline for upcoming celebrations such as the Sydney 2000 Olympics, Australian Federation, my 50th Birthday, and Sydney Dance Company’s 25th Anniversary  (Works Quotes) As a kid, I always loved serialized books. It’s the reason why people love ‘Harry Potter.’ Serialization is amazing. It works in television. It works in film and it works in books. Especially when you’re a young kid, you get attached to these characters  (Works Quotes) Computers are great because when you’re working with them you get immediate results that let you know if your program works. It’s feedback you don’t get from many other things  (Works Quotes) One must not always think so much about what one should do, but rather what one should be. Our works do not ennoble us; but we must ennoble our works  (Works Quotes) When we only name the problem, when we state complaint without a constructive focus or resolution, we take hope away. In this way critique can become merely an expression of profound cynicism, which then works to sustain dominator culture  (Works Quotes) Is it true, the world works hard and we play? Is that why we’re hated so much?  (Works Quotes) The brave man carves out his fortune, and every man is the sum of his own works  (Works Quotes) You take whatever works from wherever you can find it, and you keep moving toward the light  (Works Quotes) It’s so strange how life works: You want something and you wait and wait and feel like it’s taking forever to come. Then it happens and it’s over and all you want to do is curl back up in that moment before things changed  (Works Quotes) I have been smashed and put back together so many times nothing works right. Nothing is where it should be, heavy thumping in my shoulder where my heart now beats  (Works Quotes) It’s astonishing how much trouble one can get oneself into, if one works at it. And astonishing how much trouble one can get oneself out of, if one assumes that everything will, somehow or other, work out for the best  (Works Quotes) Take a note: it usually works better if you wait until I do something stupid before getting mad at me  (Works Quotes) I tried to hold myself apart, showing only what I wanted, doling out bits and pieces of who I was. But that only works out for so long. Eventually, even the smallest fragments can’t help but, make a whole  (Works Quotes) Sometimes knowing what’s right isn’t a rational decision, or even what works on paper. Sometimes leaving is the best course of action after all  (Works Quotes) All great programmers learn the same way. They poke the box. They code something and see what the computer does. They change it and see what the computer does. They repeat the process again and again until they figure out how the box works  (Works Quotes) Stories are in one way or another mirrors. We use them to explain to ourselves how the world works or how it doesn’t work. Like mirrors stories prepare us for the day to come. They distract us from the things in darkness  (Works Quotes) ... operational proof... it’s all theory until you see for yourself whether or not something works  (Works Quotes) For there is in mankind an unfortunate propensity to make themselves, their views and their works, the measure of excellence in every thing whatsoever  (Works Quotes) Sometimes, a lie is told in kindness. I don’t believe it ever works kindly. The quick pain of truth can pass away, but the slow, eating agony of a lie is never lost  (Works Quotes) Genius or fool, you don’t live in the world alone. You can hide underground or you can build a wall around yourself, but somebody’s going to come along and screw up the works  (Works Quotes) When you play the field selfishly everything works against you: one can’t insist on love or demand affection. you’re finally left with whatever you have been willing to give which often is: nothing  (Works Quotes) The love of a man for his wife, his child, of the land where he lives and works, is for me the real meaning of mystical experience  (Works Quotes) What if you had faith and performed good works, what if you died and went to heaven, and what if all the people you met there were people you didn’t like?  (Works Quotes) The greatest products of architecture are less the works of individuals than of society; rather the offspring of a nation’s effort, than the inspired flash of a man of genius  (Works Quotes) ... a writer’s works, like the water in an artesian well, mount to a height which is in proportion to the depth to which suffering has penetrated his soul  (Works Quotes) God works in mysterious ways but at least he works, he’s never on welfare in a mysterious way  (Works Quotes)
