Provocative Quotes

I thought I could get everyone’s attention by coming up with something that’s provocative Picture Quote #1

I ran through the manuscript in the space of a day, much as one might pick compulsively at a box of chocolates. It was simply too provocative to put down. Has the potential of being highly influential inside the field and among an informed public Picture Quote #1

Evil is just sort of ultimately boring. The good thing is just complicated. It’s more provocative to me and more stimulating to me Picture Quote #1

High-class kitsch may well be perfect in its form and and composition: the academic painters were often masters of their craft.

That human beings seek their own well-being and that of those close to them is not an especially provocative discovery. What is important is that this universal aspect of human nature persists no matter what economic system is in place; it merely expresses itself in different forms Picture Quote #1

I know I’m not the greatest singer or dancer, but that doesn’t interest me, I’m interested in being provocative and pushing people’s buttons Picture Quote #1

Some candidates need to say provocative things that make noise to break through the media muffle and get themselves noticed Picture Quote #1

So there's nothing more provocative than taking a genre that everybody who's cool hates - and then making it cool Picture Quote #1

There are no more ideologies in the authentic sense of false consciousness, only advertisements for the world through its duplication and the provocative lie which does not seek belief but commands silence Picture Quote #1

Let me assure you that my intent is not to offend or merely be provocative. I'm simply worried Picture Quote #1

I'd been to Memphis before, but we stayed out of Memphis early on in the late 70s for obvious reasons. People were very sensitive about Elvis Presley, and my stage name obviously would be provocative to some people in that area at that time Picture Quote #1

We stayed out of Memphis early on in the late 70s for obvious reasons. People were very sensitive about Elvis Presley, and my stage name obviously would be provocative to some people in that area at that time. So we didn't visit Memphis until about 1984 Picture Quote #1

It has been very erotic and provocative for people to wonder about my feelings for women Picture Quote #1

Written poetry is different. Best thing is to see it in performance first, then read it. Performance is more provocative Picture Quote #1

I think photographs should be provocative and not tell you what you already know. It takes no great powers or magic to reproduce somebody’s face in a photograph. The magic is in seeing people in new ways Picture Quote #1

You never make all things for all people and can’t always pander to the broadest denominator. I keep an eye toward doing the themes that interest me. Do they move me? Interest me? Make me think? When I run across something that is provocative in an unsettling way, it appeals to me Picture Quote #1

It is true that I am often startled and even angered and repulsed by the strange directions and provocative content of new forms that seem to pop up every few months Picture Quote #1

I am provocative, and I admit this. It isn’t as if I’m only on the receiving end, a poor, frail little creature. I can be thoroughly nasty when I get going, and I don’t pull my punches Picture Quote #1

To most outsiders, modern mathematics is unknown territory. Its borders are protected by dense thickets of technical terms; its landscapes are a mass of indecipherable equations and incomprehensible concepts. Few realize that the world of modern mathematics is rich with vivid images and provocative ideas Picture Quote #1

Pop music seems to be the way radio programming has chosen to support female artists. They have chosen not to support a more provocative voice from women, which I find disappointing Picture Quote #1

Read the editorial page of your local paper. It introduces you to opinion and can be terrifically provocative and perhaps a great motivating force for you to get involved in your community, regardless of your political ideology Picture Quote #1

To really be tortured by a song, it needs to be more than just something you don’t like or don’t get; it has to make your skin crawl by getting under it. Strangely, that last clause could describe provocative or daring music, as well Picture Quote #1

Freedom includes the right to say what others may object to and resent... The essence of citizenship is to be tolerant of strong and provocative words Picture Quote #1

It is a fascinating and provocative thought that a body of water deserves to be considered as an organism in its own right Picture Quote #1

I remember saying to myself, those things are very, very important to hear, but there must be another way to say them so that they will truly be heard. I mean, that’s what art is. Art is about being provocative; art is also about beauty and if you leave the latter out, the former doesn’t matter Picture Quote #1

I love beautiful women. I love to show their personality, their sexuality. There’s a fashion side to my erotic pictures: I love beautiful shoes and jewellery. But the erotic work I do is too daring and provocative for a fashion magazine. It’s more fun, and if you have the right girl who likes it, more exciting, too. It’s fashion photography, but with fewer clothes Picture Quote #1
