Wrong Quotes

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the responsible use of marijuana by adults and it should be of no interest or concern to the government. They have no business knowing whether we smoke or why we smoke Picture Quote #1

Challenge is the core and the mainspring of all human activity. If there’s an ocean, we cross it; if there’s a disease, we cure it; if there’s a wrong, we right it; if there’s a record, we break it; and finally, if there’s a mountain, we climb it Picture Quote #1

Everything in the media is fleeting. Don’t get the wrong idea. Fame is when you’re still the hot topic next week or even the week after Picture Quote #1

Never do anything that you can’t admit doing, because if you are that ashamed of whatever it is, it’s probably wrong Picture Quote #1

Christians appeal to those who wrong them and make them friendly to themselves; they are eager to do good to their enemies; they are mild and conciliatory Picture Quote #1

Once digital came, I could see my images instantly right there on the camera. I think that makes you a better photographer because you can see right there if your subject’s eyes are closed or if you exposed it wrong and if it’s too bright or dark. You can fix it right here. With film, you wouldn’t know until you got the prints back if something was messed up, and then there was nothing you could do. That was a huge advantage Picture Quote #1

From the time we begin school, if not sooner, we are taught to be blind to our assets and only see our deficits. We are carefully marked on how many we got wrong on a test and, rarely if ever, asked how we know how to spell the ones we got right. By the time we are adults, we are well versed in every one of our limitations, skilled in our incompetence. If we were fish in an aquarium, it would be as if we kept smashing against the glass, and forgot the fact that we were perfectly capable of turning ever so slightly and swimming gracefully in the water all around us Picture Quote #1

To succeed as a contrarian you must recognize what the crowd believes, have concrete justification for why the majority is wrong, and have the patience and conviction to stick with what is, by definition, an unpopular bet Picture Quote #1

Is it so wrong to just live life and enjoy it? Between fun and function, why must we choose the latter? Picture Quote #1

The problem is that I am in the wrong century to burn things. I am the wrong generation to let it go Picture Quote #1

The assumption that the gospel can be reduced to a note card is already off on the wrong track Picture Quote #1

There are many things given to us in this life for the wrong reasons. What we do with such blessings, that is the true test of a man Picture Quote #1

Indecisiveness and procrastination are the chosen ways of life for most people. They follow the course of least resistance, which is to do nothing. This provides a security blanket of never being wrong, never making mistakes, never being disappointed and never failing. But they will also never succeed Picture Quote #1

When you can make it this simple, though, just do the right thing. Even if you could get away with less. Even when other people are doing the wrong thing. Even though the wrong thing seems like no big deal Picture Quote #1

Wouldn’t it be a tragedy to get to the top of the ladder and find you placed it against the wrong wall? Picture Quote #1

The belief that complex systems require armies of designers and programmers is wrong. A system that is not understood in its entirety, or at least to a significant degree of detail by a single individual, should probably not be built Picture Quote #1

People with tiny glasses and costly shoes can always find a couple of hours to explain how you did it all wrong Picture Quote #1

If you remember the shape of your spoon at lunch, it has to be the wrong shape. The spoon and the letter are tools; one to take food from the bowl, the other to take information off the page... When it is a good design, the reader has to feel comfortable because the letter is both banal and beautiful Picture Quote #1

Sometimes it’s right to do the wrong things and right now is one of those times Picture Quote #1

Stepping to me? Yo, that’s the wrong move.So what you on, hobbs, dope or dog food? Picture Quote #1

Business is correct to defend its right to act in order to produce a vigorous and engaging prosperity. But it is wrong if it forgets that this freedom can only be experienced within the discipline of social responsibility Picture Quote #1

The problem isn’t that conservatives are wrong about the efficiency of markets or the creativity of enterprise. It’s that they have made false idols of both, usually without acknowledging that markets work best when well regulated, that private enterprise cannot meet every human need, that government has always played a critical role in our economy, and that the profit motive can be socially and environmentally destructive as well as dynamic Picture Quote #1

Feelings of right and wrong that at first have their locus within the family gradually develop into a pattern for the tribe or city, then spread to the much larger unit of the nation, and finally from the nation to mankind as a whole Picture Quote #1

When you choose wrong because it suits you right now, the message you give others is that when it suits you, you may likely do wrong again. You become a threat and liability to others. That’s a pragmatic reason, outside of pride in morality, not to do wrong Picture Quote #1

Moral of the story: try to get things right, figure out what’s going wrong with the scenario, and don’t give up Picture Quote #1

The rule of thumb is that if someone is able to be verbally or physically abusive, he or she is able to understand that the behavior is wrong Picture Quote #1

It’s all right if your automobile goes wrong while you are driving it. You can get out in the road and tinker with it. But if your airplane breaks down, you can’t sit on a convenient cloud and tinker with that! Picture Quote #1

We are imperfect beings in a very imperfect world, and the one thing we can count on is that things will go wrong, and that each and every one of us will have problems Picture Quote #1

There is nothing wrong with you just because you haven’t yet met people who share your interests or outlook on life. Unless you are doing something unhealthy or destructive, take pride in your beliefs, passions, and values. Know that you will eventually meet people who will appreciate you for being you Picture Quote #1

What’s wrong with shoes? I collected them because it was like a symbol of thanksgiving and love? Picture Quote #1
