Admired Quotes

Take action. Every story you’ve ever connected with, every leader you’ve ever admired, every puny little thing that you’ve ever accomplished is the result of taking action. You have a choice. You can either be a passive victim of circumstance or you can be the active hero of your own life Picture Quote #1

I write from my knowledge not my lack, from my strength not my weakness. I am not interested if anyone knows whether or not I am familiar with big words, I am interested in trying to render big ideas in a simple way. I am interested in being understood not admired Picture Quote #1

Much as I admired the elegance of physical theories, which at that time geology wholly lacked, I preferred a life in the woods to one in the laboratory Picture Quote #1

A true champion is not judged by how much he or she is admired, but by how well they can stand at the face of adversity Picture Quote #1

That beautiful sister of mine was an overwhelming and volatile mixture. One had the feeling that she’d been shot from a canon and showered her sparks over an incredulous world with no thought or care where they fell, a carbon copy of father. She was like some silvery comet who streaked through life with daring speed, the wellspring of which was an inner confidence that I deeply admired. At times, particularly in childhood, I was intimidated by her but she dictated from an aura of affection for me that was never threatening Picture Quote #1

I’ve never written the things I’d like to write that I’ve admired all my life. Maybe one never does Picture Quote #1

I just found it interesting to talk to adults I admired, and to discover that the path they took was never all that clearly defined. It was comforting to me when I figured out that you don’t have to know what you want to do with your life; you just have to take a few steps in one direction, and other opportunities will open up Picture Quote #1

A restaurant wine list is praised and given awards for reasons that have little to do with its real purpose, as if it existed only to be admired passively, like a stamp collection. A wine list is good only when it functions well in tandem with a menu Picture Quote #1

People who, as children, were intellectually far beyond their parents and therefore admired by them, but who also therefore had to solve their own problems alone. These people, who give us a feeling of their intellectual strength and will power, also seem to demand that we, too, ought to fight off any feeling of weakness with intellectual means. In their presence one feels one cannot be recognized as a person with problems just as they and their problems were unrecognized by their parents, for whom he always had to be strong Picture Quote #1

You became a reader because you saw and heard someone you admired enjoying the experience, someone led you to the world of books even before you could read, let you taste the magic of stories, took you to the library, and allowed you to stay up later at night to read in bed Picture Quote #1

Criticism can never instruct or benefit you. Its chief effect is that of a telegram with dubious news. Praise leaves no glow behind, for it is a writer’s habit to remember nothing good of himself. I have usually forgotten those who have admired my work, and seldom anyone who disliked it. Obviously, this is because praise is never enough and censure always too much Picture Quote #1

I exist not to be loved and admired, but to love and act. It is not the duty of those around me to love me. Rather, it is my duty to be concerned about the world, about man Picture Quote #1

If people are really narcissistic or have a need to be seen as more than they really are, or to be admired as having it all together, then they cannot be followed and trusted by others Picture Quote #1

Classical buildings endure because they are loved, admired and accepted, and enjoy an innate adaption to human needs and purposes Picture Quote #1

No scientist is admired for failing in the attempt to solve problems that lie beyond his competence... Good scientists study the most important problems they think they can solve. It is, after all, their professional business to solve problems, not merely to grapple with them Picture Quote #1

I was raised by parents who really admired the religious leaders of the left, as many 60s and 70s liberals did Picture Quote #1

The bachelors admired freedom is often a yoke, for the freer a man is to himself the greater slave he often is to the whims of others Picture Quote #1

Some of the most important people in my life would be shocked to learn that they were role models. They weren’t celebrities, or even particularly accomplished. But they had some quality that I admired, that made me want to be like them Picture Quote #1

Cherish your solitude. Take trains by yourself to places you have never been. Sleep out alone under the stars. Learn how to drive a stick shift. Go so far away that you stop being afraid of not coming back. Say no when you don’t want to do something. Say yes if your instincts are strong, even if everyone around you disagrees. Decide whether you want to be liked or admired. Decide if fitting in is more important than finding out what you’re doing here. Believe in kissing Picture Quote #1

Modeling is always something I’ve really admired because I’ve seen my mum and sister do it Picture Quote #1

I always felt from the beginning that you had to defend people you disliked and feared as well as those you admired Picture Quote #1

How vain is painting, which is admired for reproducing the likeness of things whose originals are not admired Picture Quote #1

America is a land of big dreamers and big hopes. It is this hope that has sustained us through revolution and civil war, depression and world war, a struggle for civil and social rights and the brink of nuclear crisis. And it is because our dreamers dreamed that we have emerged from each challenge more united, more prosperous, and more admired than before Picture Quote #1

Have the courage to be selfless in a world were such qualities are not admired. Dare to be differnt. Be crazy! Picture Quote #1

The first ingredient to being wrong is to claim that you are right. Geniuses have a knack for raising new questions. Hence by the public they are either admired for their creativity or, even more commonly so, detested for disturbing the daily peace of mind Picture Quote #1

Always admired men who had many women. It must be that to a child of a dissatisfied woman the idea of monogamy is hollow Picture Quote #1
