It is much easier to be critical than to be correct.
Benjamin DisraeliI believe the Republicans have never thought that democracy was anything but a tribal myth.
Hunter S. ThompsonCorruption is one of the most common reasons I hear in views that criticize aid.
Bill GatesI thought Star Wars was too wacky for the general public.
George LucasSure, women sportswriters look when they’re in the clubhouse. Read their stories. How else do you explain a capital letter in the middle of a word?
Bob UeckerI think the materialist conception of history is valid.
Christopher HitchensI think we ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt. I shouldn’t wish people dogmatically to believe any philosophy, not even mine.
Bertrand RussellA true critic ought to dwell upon excellencies rather than imperfections, to discover the concealed beauties of a writer, and communicate to the world such things as are worth their observation.
Joseph AddisonWhen you think about it, Adolf Hitler was the first pop star.
David BowiePolitically there were failures. And also on the personal level, there were tremendous failures.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerIf the experiments which I urge be defective, it cannot be difficult to show the defects; but if valid, then by proving the theory, they must render all objections invalid.
Isaac NewtonI have never entered into any controversy in defense of my philosophical opinions; I leave them to take their chance in the world. If they are right, truth and experience will support them; if wrong, they ought to be refuted and rejected. Disputes are apt to sour one’s temper and disturb one’s quiet.
Benjamin FranklinI’m not in the loop; I don’t know any actors, really, just the ones I work with.
Denzel WashingtonA witty saying proves nothing.
VoltaireNow is the winter of our discontent.
William ShakespeareWill minus intellect constitutes vulgarity.
Arthur SchopenhauerThe superpowers often behave like two heavily armed blind men feeling their way around a room, each believing himself in mortal peril from the other, whom he assumes to have perfect vision.
Henry KissingerThe hungry judges soon the sentence sign, and wretches hang that jurymen may dine.
Alexander PopeThe lady doth protest too much, methinks.
William ShakespeareMaybe stories are just data with a soul.
Brene BrownI think we understand that for the Court to work well, we have to not only respect but genuinely like each other.
Ruth Bader GinsburgMen seldom, or rather never for a length of time and deliberately, rebel against anything that does not deserve rebelling against.
Thomas CarlyleA precedent embalms a principle.
Benjamin DisraeliThe economy’s always been the engine for our national security.
Jim MattisRomcoms are hard in a lot of ways: they’re built to be buoyant. It’s easy to demean them.
Matthew McConaugheyIn the last analysis, what we are communicates far more eloquently than anything we say or do.
Stephen CoveyWhat the Pope thinks of being gay does not matter to the world. It matters to the people who like the Pope and follow the Pope… It is not a reflection of all religious people.
Lady GagaIf you look at ‚Blade Runner,‘ it’s been cut sixteen ways from Sunday, and there are all kinds of different versions of it.
George LucasWe should not look at terrorism from the nameplates – which group they belong to, what is their geographical location, who are the victims. These individual groups or names will keep changing.
Narendra ModiYou do not examine legislation in the light of the benefits it will convey if properly administered, but in the light of the wrongs it would do and the harms it would cause if improperly administered.
Lyndon B. JohnsonI like definitive things.
Jerry SeinfeldIf there is one thing I fear less than everything else, it is, I believe, persecution for my opinions. There are a good many points about which I may be diffident, but when it comes to questions of Truth and intellectual independence, there is no holding me – I can envisage no finer end than to sacrifice oneself for a conviction.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinThere is no gambling like politics.
Benjamin DisraeliPolitics is the entertainment branch of industry.
Frank ZappaThere’s people that appreciate what I do; there’s people that criticize it.
Bad BunnyHow happy is the blameless vestal’s lot? The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Alexander PopeWe may have our private opinions but why should they be a bar to the meeting of hearts?
Mahatma GandhiPeace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures.
John F. KennedyNo one’s policing their own minds more than an author. You spend a lot of time in your own head analysing what you think about things, and a philosophy comes.
Terry PratchettIf anyone offers conjectures about the truth of things from the mere possibility of hypotheses, I do not see by what stipulation anything certain can be determined in any science, since one or another set of hypotheses may always be devised which will appear to supply new difficulties.
Isaac NewtonWhen I walk outside, people have something to say about it.
Lana Del ReyWith colleagues in the work environment, we fail to see the source of their envy or the reason for their manipulations; our attempts at influencing them are based on the assumptions that they want the same things as ourselves.
Robert GreeneThe greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions.
Leonardo da VinciI sent one e-mail in my life. I sent it to Jeff Raikes at Microsoft, and it ended up in court in Minneapolis, so I am one for one.
Warren BuffettI like to get out and get up the court, using my speed and aggressiveness toward the hoop.
LeBron JamesThere’s no art to find the mind’s construction in the face.
William ShakespeareThis administration is going to be cussed and discussed for years to come.
Harry S. TrumanCobb is a prick. But he sure can hit. God Almighty, that man can hit.
Babe RuthRead not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted… but to weigh and consider.
Francis BaconIf a victory is told in detail, one can no longer distinguish it from a defeat.
Jean-Paul SartreFor all right judgment of any man or things it is useful, nay, essential, to see his good qualities before pronouncing on his bad.
Thomas CarlyleWhen I was 8 years old, it mattered what my favorite singer said and wore and expressed opinions about.
Taylor SwiftPrejudices are what fools use for reason.
VoltaireThe reactionary is always willing to take a progressive attitude on any issue that is dead.
Theodore RooseveltEver since Newton, we’ve done science by taking things apart to see how they work. What the computer enables us to do is to put things together to see how they work: we’re now synthesized rather than analysed. I find one of the most enthralling aspects of computers is limitless communication.
Douglas AdamsAn economist’s guess is liable to be as good as anybody else’s.
Will RogersTradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiFor, if a good speaker, never so eloquent, does not see into the fact, and is not speaking the truth of that – is there a more horrid kind of object in creation?
Thomas CarlyleI think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the Scriptures, but with experiments, and demonstrations.
Galileo GalileiExperts often possess more data than judgment.
Colin Powell
