Text Quotes
Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts  (Independent Thought Quotes) There are lots of great movies coming out of the U.S. but it’s not something I’ve ever really been interested in. They’re great films but I much prefer the smaller independent films, which are more thought provoking and experimental.  (Independent Thought Quotes) My mother didn’t want me to be in fashion. She was in the fashion business, so was my brother, and she thought it was too crazy for me. She wanted me to be married with children, to be independent, yes, but not to have a crazy life.  (Independent Thought Quotes) We Liberals like to think our thoughts aren’t controlled. We pride ourselves on our independent thinking. We know we shouldn’t believe everything we read. We realize the media is skewed, we know it’s owned by a small group of people, we realize it’s biased, etc.  (Independent Thought Quotes) I was amazed at how the life of a freelancer differed from running a remote studio for another company. I thought I knew what I was doing in 2004 when I left Eidos because I had run Ion Storm Austin, which was my own independent studio. I had run a business unit inside Origin, but being part of a startup is crazy.  (Independent Thought Quotes) I think maybe my mom thought that Katharine Hepburn would be a good role model of, like, a strong, smart, independent woman. Maybe she steered me in that direction. You know, because she was really so ahead of her time  (Independent Thought Quotes) I’m an independent, straight in the middle. I’ve donated to candidates that I thought would be good that are Republican and Democrats alike  (Independent Thought Quotes) Success also requires the courage to risk disapproval. Most independent thought, new ideas, or endeavors beyond the common measure are greeted with disapproval, and ranging from skepticism and ridicule to violent outrage. To persevere in anything exceptional requires inner strength and the unshakable conviction that you are right  (Independent Thought Quotes) The time has come for people of reason to say: Enough is Enough! Religious faith discourages independent thought, it’s divisive and it’s dangerous  (Independent Thought Quotes) The right to criticize: the right to hold unpopular beliefs; the right to protest; the right of independent thought. The exercise of these rights should not cost one single American citizen his reputation or his right to a livelihood... Otherwise none of us could call our souls our own  (Independent Thought Quotes) Somebody who only reads newspapers and at best books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who scorns eyeglasses. He is completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of his times, since he never gets to see or hear anything else  (Independent Thought Quotes) Persons grouped around a fire or candle for warmth or light are less able to pursue independent thoughts, or even tasks, than people supplied with electric light. In the same way, the social and educational patterns latent in automation are those of self-employment and artistic autonomy  (Independent Thought Quotes) No, I just thought of a story and wrote down what I saw. It was about two kids in Ireland who went around killing people. It was called Travelers, and it was made as an independent film  (Independent Thought Quotes) There was a time when men thought it was sexy to have a housewife waiting for him to come home from work in her slippers, but in modern society, I think an independent woman is even more sexy  (Independent Thought Quotes) Surely love has nothing to do with the mind, it is not the product of the mind; love is entirely independent of calculation, of thought  (Independent Thought Quotes) She thought she was independent and strong, but she got one small taste of love and she was hungrier than anyone. She was ravenous  (Independent Thought Quotes) Silence is hereby outlawed. Silence breeds independent thought, which in turn breeds dissent  (Independent Thought Quotes) Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking  (Independent Thought Quotes) Fools have a habit of believing that everything written by a famous author is admirable. For my part I read only to please myself and like only what suits my taste  (Independent Thought Quotes) In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual  (Independent Thought Quotes) I was so grateful to be independent of the academic establishment. I thought, how awful it would be to have my future hinge on such people and such decisions  (Independent Thought Quotes) Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds!  (Independent Thought Quotes) You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind  (Independent Thought Quotes) Responsibility to yourself means refusing to let others do your thinking, talking, and naming for you; it means learning to respect and use your own brains and instincts; hence, grappling with hard work  (Independent Thought Quotes) The essence of the independent mind lies not in what it thinks, but in how it thinks  (Independent Thought Quotes) How can it be that mathematics, being after all a product of human thought which is independent of experience, is so admirably appropriate to the objects of reality?  (Independent Thought Quotes) Here in the enclave, one didn’t prosper by demonstrating too much independent thought  (Independent Thought Quotes) It is not difficult to deprive the great majority of independent thought. But the minority who will retain an inclination to criticize must also be silenced... Public criticism or even expressions of doubt must be suppressed because they tend to weaken pubic support... When the doubt or fear expressed concerns not the success of a particular enterprise but of the whole social plan, it must be treated even more as sabotage  (Independent Thought Quotes) Passive acceptance of the teacher’s wisdom is easy to most boys and girls. It involves no effort of independent thought, and seems rational because the teacher knows more than his pupils; it is moreover the way to win the favour of the teacher unless he is a very exceptional man. Yet the habit of passive acceptance is a disastrous one in later life. It causes man to seek and to accept a leader, and to accept as a leader whoever is established in that position  (Independent Thought Quotes) Often girls feel deeply cared about as small children but then find as we develop willpower and independent thought that the world stops affirming us, that we are seen as unlovable  (Independent Thought Quotes)
