Admitting Quotes

We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia, and everyone seems to think yesterday was better than today. I don’t think it was, and I would advise you not to wait ten years before admitting today was great. If you’re hung up on nostalgia, pretend today is yesterday and just go out and have one hell of a time Picture Quote #1

Wounded vanity knows when it is mortally hurt; and limps off the field, piteous, all disguises thrown away. But pride carries its banner to the last; and fast as it is driven from one field unfurls it in another, never admitting that there is a shade less honor in the second field than in the first, or in the third than in the second Picture Quote #1

I personally think that if you deny something or if you hide something you’re inadvertently admitting it’s wrong Picture Quote #1

The rational approach start from the idea that everything is explainable and that mystery is in some sense the enemy. This means that it prefers pejorative, and even wrong, answers to admitting its own lack of understanding Picture Quote #1

Maturity, as I conceived it, was recognizing what was bad or peculiar in life, admitting it has to stay that way, and going ahead with the best of things Picture Quote #1

Yes, I’m shallow, I don’t mind admitting it. Perhaps I should admit that there’s no end to the depths of my shallowness Picture Quote #1

The truth is we don’t much like being dependent. We don’t enjoy admitting how depeately we long for someone’s kindness and involvement. It’s so humbling Picture Quote #1

You know what’s the most terrifying thing about admitting that you’re in love? You’re just naked. You put yourself in harm’s way and you lay down all your defences. No clothes, no weapons. Nowhere to hide, completely vulnerable. The only thing that makes it tolerable is to believe the other person loves you back and you can trust him not to hurt you Picture Quote #1

We do not compromise our own faith by admitting the honesty of another’s doubt Picture Quote #1

The problem is one of opposition between subjective and objective points of view. There is a tendency to seek an objective account of everything before admitting its reality. But often what appears to a more subjective point of view cannot be accounted for in this way. So either the objective conception of the world is incomplete, or the subjective involves illusions that should be rejected Picture Quote #1

A man can build a staunch reputation for honesty by admitting he was in error, especially when he gets caught at it Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I think we keep secrets for the wrong reasons. If we could instead find that right person to talk to we might find that talking about an embarrassing story or admitting our frailty might lead to a more authentic relationship with others or ourselves Picture Quote #1

If I was a poet, I had become one because poetry, more intensely than any other practice, could not evade its anachronism and marginality and so constituted a kind of acknowledgment of my own preposterousness, admitting my bad faith in good faith, so to speak Picture Quote #1

There should be no shame in admitting to a mistake; after all, we really are only admitting that we are now wiser than we once were Picture Quote #1

The only tough thing is admitting to my wife how much a certain article of clothing costs Picture Quote #1

Harriet never minded admitting she didn’t know something. So what, she thought, I could always learn Picture Quote #1

Consistency can be a trap, especially if it leads to being consistently wrong rather than to stopping, admitting your mistake, and changing course Picture Quote #1

Do you see any majority, anywhere, in this imperfect and irreligious world, admitting that the minority is precious? That any minority is precious? Picture Quote #1

The first step in solving a problem is admitting there is a problem to be solved Picture Quote #1

This is the hard part. Knowing and admitting a problem are not the same as solving it. But executing a solution is also the fun part, because the solution save you and gets you moving again Picture Quote #1

It was better that we never apologized to each other. Then we’d be admitting that we were wrong and we owed each other something. That’s where people got into trouble Picture Quote #1
