Acts Quotes

The most important benefit of patience consists in the way it acts as a powerful antidote to the affliction of anger Picture Quote #1

When I was a child, going to a circus with wild animal acts was a rite of passage. These days, it’s an act of complicit cruelty Picture Quote #1

I think that now that we are seeing multimedia types of productions with videos and pictures and human beings performing the acts that animals used to perform, such as in Cirque du Soleil and other traveling troops, there is no need to parade animals around anymore in cages for personal gratification Picture Quote #1

You see another side of Draco when he’s with his dad. When Draco is with his dad, he doesn’t say anything. He keeps his mouth shut. He’s sort of bullied by his dad, so he acts very different Picture Quote #1

With vocal and choral music, first and foremost, it’s the text. Not only do I need to serve the text, but the text - when I’m doing it right - acts as the perfect ‘blueprint’, and all the architecture is there. The poet has done the heavy lifting, so my job is to find the soul of the poem and then somehow translate that into music Picture Quote #1

I believe that homosexual acts between individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts. I do not believe that the Armed Forces of the United States are well served by a saying through our policies that it’s OK to be immoral in any way Picture Quote #1

Some people are just really goofy kind of guitar acts, and they go out and do these colleges and start making a fortune pretty early on. And other people - I know guys who are great comics, who’ve done the Letterman show many times, who still barely pay their bills Picture Quote #1

You can’t travel the back roads very long without discovering a multitude of gentle people doing good for others with no expectation of gain or recognition. The everyday kindness of the back roads more than makes up for the acts of greed in the headlines. Some people out there spend their whole lives selflessly Picture Quote #1

A warrior takes responsibility for his acts, for the most trivial of acts. An average man acts out his thoughts, and never takes responsibility for what he does.When we feel stuck, going nowhere -- even starting to slipbackward -- we may actually be backing up to get a runningstart Picture Quote #1

I believe the election and reelection of Obama were among the most conspicuous acts of denial in recent years. Voters just stopped paying attention. They accepted consistently bad behavior and rewarded it. Then they wonder why they get more bad behavior Picture Quote #1

We believe it is bad or dangerous to be carried away by our emotions. We admire the person who is cool, who acts without feeling Picture Quote #1

It shouldn’t take extreme courage and a willingness to go to prison for decades or even life to blow the whistle on bad government acts done in secret. But it does. And that is an immense problem for democracy, one that all journalists should be united in fighting Picture Quote #1

Over time, we commit acts with intentions, either good or bad, that require forgiveness Picture Quote #1

Let me be clear: as I have said repeatedly, I do not believe that all police officers are bad, nor do I believe that most are bad. But there must be a transparent, impartial and fair system to judge those that engage in criminal or unethical acts Picture Quote #1

Basketball, more than any other sport, is a team game...about the thousands of small, unselfish acts, the sacrifices on the part of the players that result in team building Picture Quote #1

What do we lose without wild animal acts at the circus? Absolutely nothing, except the opportunity to be haunted and heartbroken Picture Quote #1

Nuclear power plants must be prepared to withstand everything from earthquakes to tsunamis, from fires to floods to acts of terrorism Picture Quote #1

The environment acts more strongly upon the individual life the less fixed and strong this individual life may be Picture Quote #1

I think between The Beach Boys, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and innumerable acts after that... rock music became a huge economic force Picture Quote #1

The sacred, I shall say, is that which acts as your partner in the search for the highest and deepest things: the real, the true, the good, and the beautiful. The name I’d like to give to the kind of relationship that gives us a chance to find such things is a ‘circle of meaning.’ Picture Quote #1

No fundamental social change occurs merely because government acts. It’s because civil society, the conscience of a country, begins to rise up and demand - demand - demand change Picture Quote #1

The Spirit’s fullness is not the reward of our faithfulness, but God’s gift for our defeat. He was not given to the disciples in Acts 28 as the culmination and reward of their wonderful service, but in Acts 2 when they had proved themselves cowards, meeting behind closed doors Picture Quote #1

We tend to think of heroes only in terms of violent combat, whether it’s against enemies or a natural disaster. But human beings also perform radical acts of compassion; we just don’t talk about them, or we don’t talk about them as much Picture Quote #1

Man is a masterpiece of creation, if only because no amount of determinism can prevent him from believing that he acts as a free being Picture Quote #1
