Acts Quotes

And I think this is the real epiphany: the ways in which culture is distributed become profoundly more intriguing as a cultural artifact itself. What we’ve experienced is an inversion of consumption, one in which we’ve come to prefer the acts of acquisition over that which we are acquiring, the bottles over the wine Picture Quote #1

I actually think that the most efficacious way of making a difference is to lead by example, and doing random acts of kindness is setting a very good example of how to behave in the world Picture Quote #1

It was a world of acts, and words had no more influence on acts than the sound of a waterfall has on the flow of the stream Picture Quote #1

There can be no understanding between the hand and the brain unless the heart acts as mediator Picture Quote #1

Depend on no man, on no friend but him who can depend on himself. He only who acts conscientiously toward himself, will act so toward others Picture Quote #1

We cannot segregate the human heart from the environment outside us and say that once one of these is reformed everything will be improved. Man is organic with the world. His inner life moulds the environment and is itself also deeply affected by it. The one acts upon the other and every abiding change in the life of man is the result of these mutual reactions Picture Quote #1

Do the uncomfortable. Become comfortable with these acts. Prove to yourself that your limiting beliefs die a quick death if you will simply do what you feel uncomfortable doing Picture Quote #1

I think it is obvious that people repeat acts that are shown on the television or the screen and I wouldn’t want to inspire any violence on anyone Picture Quote #1

Only the subject’s individual consciousness can testify for the unwitnessed acts, and there is no act more deprived of external testimony than the act of knowing Picture Quote #1

You cannot cheat with the law of conservation of violence: all violence is paid for, and for example, the structural violence exerted by the financial markets, in the form of layoffs, loss of security, etc., is matched sooner or later in the form of suicides, crime and delinquency, drug addiction, alcoholism, a whole host of minor and major everyday acts of violence Picture Quote #1

Project management is the art of creating the illusion that any outcome is the result of a series of predetermined, deliberate acts when, in fact, it was dumb luck Picture Quote #1

We have to address individual acts of corruption. This is a necessary approach. Go after these individuals Picture Quote #1

I was taught to see racism only in individual acts of meanness, not in invisible systems conferring dominance on my group Picture Quote #1

Each of us can work to change a small portion of events. And it’s in the total of all those acts that the history of this generation will be written Picture Quote #1

In the midst of prosperity, the challenge for believers is to handle wealth in such a way that it acts as a blessing, not a curse Picture Quote #1

It is not by great acts but by small failures that freedom dies... Justice and liberty die quietly, because men first learn to ignore injustice and then no longer recognize it Picture Quote #1

As the representatives of the people we are here to declare that our resolve has not been weakened by these horrific and cowardly acts Picture Quote #1

We want from here to express our solidarity and our support to all the victims of these acts of terrorism and their family members. We reiterate our complete, emphatic rejection of all forms of violence and all forms of terrorism Picture Quote #1

Cuba laments and expresses its profound sadness for the loss of so many innocent lives and expresses our absolute rejection of acts of terrorism, wherever they may come from Picture Quote #1

One acts decisively only in the conviction that all the angels are on one side and all the devils on the other Picture Quote #1

Religion has the capacity to silence critical thinking and create blindness in entire groups of people. It can infect the minds of followers so completely as to allow the most egregious sexual acts against children and others to go unchallenged for centuries Picture Quote #1

Children who willingly participate in sexual acts have the right to make that decision as well, even if it’s distasteful to us personally. Some children will make poor choices just as some adults do in smoking and drinking to excess. When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will Picture Quote #1

To help others develop, start with yourself! When the boss acts like a little God and tells everyone else they need to improve, that behavior can be copied at every level of management. Every level then points out how the level below it needs to change. The end result: No one gets much better Picture Quote #1

People talk about random acts of kindness, and that goes back to the measure of being gentlemanly again. It’s about having consideration for others, and not expecting anything back. That’s the difference Picture Quote #1

Significant progress in the solutions of technical problems is frequently made not by a direct approach, but by first setting a goal of high challenge which offers a strong motivation for innovative work, which fires the imagination and spurs men to expend their best efforts, and which acts as a catalyst by including chains of other reactions Picture Quote #1

Mania’s premonitory signs are unusual acts of extravagance, manifested by the purchase of houses, and certain expensive and unnecessary articles of furniture Picture Quote #1

Real friends require honesty, openness, and even vulnerability. They also require attention and simple acts of kindness Picture Quote #1

One color alone means nothing. I acts as in a vacuum, with no other colors to relate to. It is only when colors relate to other colors that the fun begins Picture Quote #1

One does not deceive oneself about the consequences of one’s acts; one deceives oneself about the ease with which one can live with those consequences Picture Quote #1

Power always acts destructively, for its possessors are ever striving to lace all phenomena of social life into a corset of their laws to give them a definite shape. Its mental expression is dead dogma; its physical manifestation of life, brute force. This lack of intelligence in its endeavours leaves its imprint likewise on the persons of its representatives, gradually making them mentally inferior and brutal, even though they were originally excellently endowed. Nothing dulls the mind and soul of man as does the eternal monotony of routine, and power is essentially routine Picture Quote #1
