I can unload my opinion on anybody at anytime.

I am amazed at the wonders of technology and am grateful for the ways in which we are able to use it to share the Gospel around the world.

Words are more powerful than some noises. Noises won’t last long. Lyrics are so important, and people don’t realise that.

I have all the emotions that everyone has; it just appears that I don’t.

It is not, of course, complete yet – but some sentences were understood this afternoon… I feel that I have at last struck the solution of a great problem – and the day is coming when telegraph wires will be laid onto houses just like water or gas – and friends converse with each other without leaving home.

People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.

To me, constructive criticism is when people take ownership of their ideas. That’s why I don’t listen to anything that’s anonymous. But it’s hard; when there’s something hurtful out there, I still want to read it over and over and memorize it and explain my point of view to the person.

People don’t realise how difficult it is to work with people day in and day out that know absolutely nothing.

I make a lot of expressions constantly. I’m animated.

In the end, people are persuaded not by what we say, but by what they understand.

You can be a little ungrammatical if you come from the right part of the country.

One merit of poetry few persons will deny: it says more and in fewer words than prose.

I don’t think people are going to talk in the future. They’re going to communicate through eye contact, body language, emojis, signs.

Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.

In my opinion, rankings are a very fickle measurement of one’s success and it is best to not get carried away by it.

But behavior in the human being is sometimes a defense, a way of concealing motives and thoughts, as language can be a way of hiding your thoughts and preventing communication.

I’m the most recognized and loved man that ever lived cuz there weren’t no satellites when Jesus and Moses were around, so people far away in the villages didn’t know about them.

When I talk to kids, I’m really listening. When I do that, we have a little bit of a bigger connection than me being Kendrick Lamar and you being a student. It’s almost like we’re friends. Because a friend listens.

There is one way to have a short but exciting conversation with me, and that is to move too slow.

If it’s illegal to rock and roll, throw my ass in jail!

Chance gives rise to thoughts, and chance removes them; no art can keep or acquire them.

To be sure I must; and therefore I may assume that your silence gives consent.

Anything popular is populist, and populist is rarely a good adjective.

I have made the mistaken assumption – and I will attempt to be better at this – of thinking that because somebody is on Twitter and is attacking me that it is open season. And that is my mistake.

Politics is a science. You can demonstrate that you are right and that others are wrong.

Swearing is industry language. For as long as we’re alive it’s not going to change. You’ve got to be boisterous to get results.

There are many times when a woman will ask another girl friend how she likes her new hat. She will reply, ‚Fine,‘ but slap her hand to her forehead the minute the girl leaves to yipe, ‚What a horror!‘

Language is the dress of thought.

I’m giving all that I have in this life. I’m opening up my notebook, and I’m saying everything in there out loud.

Whoever the coach is, my job is to talk to him, understand him and be a better player under him and give my best.

Mind your speech a little lest you should mar your fortunes.

A man seldom thinks with more earnestness of anything than he does of his dinner.

Those who cannot understand how to put their thoughts on ice should not enter into the heat of debate.

Speak low, if you speak love.

Coffee is a language in itself.

My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way.

No one means all he says, and yet very few say all they mean, for words are slippery and thought is viscous.

Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.

An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way.

Girls talk to each other like men talk to each other. But girls have an eye for detail.

If you wish to know the mind of a man, listen to his words.

‚Kiss Land‘ wasn’t about what people wanted to hear on the radio. It was the state of mind I was in – introverted, like David Cronenberg’s ‚Naked Lunch.‘ You didn’t know if you were hearing a chorus or a verse. It was just my thoughts.

What do I think of Western civilization? I think it would be a very good idea.

It’s not morbid to talk about death. Most people don’t worry about death, they worry about a bad death.

He that speaks much, is much mistaken.

When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but creatures of emotion.

I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.

Too often the strong, silent man is silent only because he does not know what to say, and is reputed strong only because he has remained silent.

The spirit of an age may be best expressed in the abstract ideal arts, for the spirit itself is abstract and ideal.

Money, it turned out, was exactly like sex, you thought of nothing else if you didn’t have it and thought of other things if you did.

I’m terrified of losing my voice.

The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.

Beauty has as many meanings as man has moods. Beauty is the symbol of symbols. Beauty reveals everything, because it expresses nothing. When it shows us itself, it shows us the whole fiery-coloured world.

Proselytism is solemn nonsense; it makes no sense. We need to get to know each other, listen to each other and improve our knowledge of the world around us.

Never give an order that can’t be obeyed.

If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.

What convinces is conviction. Believe in the argument you’re advancing. If you don’t you’re as good as dead. The other person will sense that something isn’t there, and no chain of reasoning, no matter how logical or elegant or brilliant, will win your case for you.

Every man has a right to utter what he thinks truth, and every other man has a right to knock him down for it. Martyrdom is the test.

If it’s going to come out eventually, better have it come out immediately.

I don’t like to talk much with people who always agree with me. It is amusing to coquette with an echo for a little while, but one soon tires of it.
