Text Quotes
Totalitarianism extends to whatever touches it... psychological technique, as it operates in the army or in a great industrial plant, entails a direct action on the family. It involves a psychological adaptation of family life to military or industrial methods, supervision of family life, and training family life for military or industrial service. Technique can leave nothing untouched in a civilization. Everything is its concern. Technique, which is destroying all other civilizations, is more than a simple mechanism: it’s a whole civilization in itself  (Adaptation Quotes) Adaptation can efficiently reduce the costs of climate change while atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases are being stabilised  (Adaptation Quotes) In many ways, constancy is an illusion. After all, our ancestors were immigrants, many of them moving on every few years; today we are migrants in time. Unless teachers can hold up a model of lifelong learning and adaptation, graduates are likely to find themselves trapped into obsolescence as the world changes around them. Of any stopping place in life, it is good to ask whether it will be a good place from which to go on as well as a good place to remain  (Adaptation Quotes) We are all animals of this planet. We are all creatures. And nonhuman animals experience pain sensations just like we do. They too are strong, intelligent, industrious, mobile, and evolutional. They too are capable of growth and adaptation. Like us, firsthand foremost, they are earthlings. And like us, they are surviving. Like us they also seek their own comfort rather than discomfort. And like us they express degrees of emotion. In short like us, they are alive  (Adaptation Quotes) The survival of the fittest is the ageless law of nature, but the fittest are rarely the strong. The fittest are those endowed with the qualifications for adaptation, the ability to accept the inevitable and conform to the unavoidable, to harmonize with existing or changing conditions  (Adaptation Quotes) A pattern of shared basic assumptions invented, discovered, or developed by a given group as it learns to cope with its problems of external adaptation and internal integration that have worked well enough to be considered valid and therefore, to be taught to new members as the correct way to perceive, think and feel in relation to those problems  (Adaptation Quotes) Translation is a kind of transubstantiation; one poem becomes another. You can choose your philosophy of translation just as you choose how to live: the free adaptation that sacrifices detail to meaning, the strict crib that sacrifices meaning to exactitude. The poet moves from life to language, the translator moves from language to life; both, like the immigrant, try to identify the invisible, what’s between the lines, the mysterious implications  (Adaptation Quotes) A nice adaptation of conditions will make almost any hypothesis agree with the phenomena. This will please the imagination but does not advance our knowledge  (Adaptation Quotes) True freedom, which is full joy, is the complete recognition of law and adaptation to it. Bondage comes from ignorance of law or opposition to it  (Adaptation Quotes) In the game of life, less diversity means fewer options for change. Wild or domesticated, panda or pea, adaptation is the requirement for survival  (Adaptation Quotes) If a program of physical activity isn’t designed to get you stronger or faster or better conditioned by producing a specific stress to which a specific desirable adaptation can occur, you don’t get to call it training. It’s just exercise  (Adaptation Quotes) My familiarity with the successful use of very long steel ropes for mining purposes naturally suggested their adaptation to the new purpose of deep sea work  (Adaptation Quotes) What is more malleable is always superior over that which is immovable. This is the principle of controlling things by going along with them, of mastery through adaptation  (Adaptation Quotes) I’m a creature of adaptation. I take advantage of the second and the moment. My comedy breathes; it’s not really that predictable. I do have a linear style, but other than that, there’s a lot of abstract. I just go off on what I’m thinking. I’m not that topical. I like to talk about me and my experiences  (Adaptation Quotes) My ultimate goal is to drive people back to the books, when I think of an adaptation  (Adaptation Quotes) Children, it should be repeated, are not pocket editions of adults, because childhood is a period of physical growth and development, a period of preparation for adult responsibility and public and private life. A program of children cannot be merely an adaptation of the program for adults, nor should it be curtailed during periods of depression or emergency expansion of other programs  (Adaptation Quotes) Individual societies begin in harmonious adaptation to the environment and, like individuals, quickly get trapped into nonadaptive, artificial, repetitive sequences  (Adaptation Quotes) By separating the function of adaptation from the function of maintaining the integrity of individual genes, sex allows much greater diversity while still keeping genes whole. Sex is not only fun, it is good engineering practice  (Adaptation Quotes) Not everybody can do the comic book adaptation thing and make it believable. It is challenging  (Adaptation Quotes) Adaptation of books is never a success. When the author wants to make it, it’s even worse  (Adaptation Quotes) Every great religion is, in truth, a concentration of great ideas, capable, as all ideas are, of infinite expansion and adaptation  (Adaptation Quotes) Keep on the lookout for novel ideas that others have used successfully. Your idea has to be original only in its adaptation to the problem you’re working on  (Adaptation Quotes) The problem with books, now that I’ve written one, is that the idea of adaptation is so much easier than sitting down to write something new  (Adaptation Quotes) The truth is that I know very few novelists who have been satisfied with the adaptation of their books for the screen  (Adaptation Quotes) I increasingly fear that nothing good can come of almost any adaptation, and obviously that’s sweeping. There are a couple of adaptations that are perhaps as good or better than the original work. But the vast majority of them are pointless  (Adaptation Quotes) People talk about human intelligence as the greatest adaptation in the history of the planet. It is an amazing and marvelous thing, but in evolutionary terms, it is as likely to do us in as to help us along  (Adaptation Quotes) Since we live in a society that promotes faddism and temporary superficial adaptation of different values, we are easily convinced that changes have occurred in arenas where there has been little or no change  (Adaptation Quotes) Softness triumphs over hardness, feebleness over strength. What is more malleable is always superior over that which is immoveable. This is the principle of controlling things by going along with them, of mastery through adaptation  (Adaptation Quotes) The excellence of every government is its adaptation to the state of those to be governed by it  (Adaptation Quotes) Because ideas have to be original only with regard to their adaptation to the problem at hand, I am always extremely interested in how others have used used them  (Adaptation Quotes)
