Text Quotes
The exercises of practical life are formative activities, a work of adaptation to the environment. Such adaptation to the environment and efficient functioning therein is the very essence of a useful education  (Adaptation Quotes) The true basis of morality is utility; that is, the adaptation of our actions to the promotion of the general welfare and happiness; the endeavour so to rule our lives that we may serve and bless mankind  (Adaptation Quotes) Dominance in an adaptation to anarchy and it serves no purpose in a society that has undergone a civilising process or in an international system regulated by agreements and norms. Anything that deflates the concept of dominance is likely to drive down the frequency of fights between individuals and wars  (Adaptation Quotes) Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring, through obeying the blind urge  (Adaptation Quotes) Prudence supposes the value of the end to be assumed, and refers only to the adaptation of the means. It is the relation of right means for given ends  (Adaptation Quotes) It is a miracle of harmony, of the adaptation of the free inner life to the outward necessity of things  (Adaptation Quotes) When one looks back over human existence however, it is very evident that all culture has developed through an initial resistance against adaptation to the reality in which man finds himself  (Adaptation Quotes) Life is neither static nor unchanging. With no individuality, there can be no change, no adaptation and, in an inherently changing world, any species unable to adapt is also doomed  (Adaptation Quotes) I wrote a screenplay for a ‘Sweet Valley High’ adaptation, and it’s really amazing to me how many women who are my age have responded to the idea and are excited about the movie  (Adaptation Quotes) In all works on Natural History, we constantly find details of the marvellous adaptation of animals to their food, their habits, and the localities in which they are found  (Adaptation Quotes) They give me the money, I give them the book. Having input into the adaptation would be kind of like selling a house and coming back three years later and saying, ‘Paint it this color!  (Adaptation Quotes) I think before 1997 is over, NATO will have taken giant strides in what’s called adaptation, the discussions about bringing the French fully into the NATO forces  (Adaptation Quotes) When you talk to crews that went to Mir or have gone up to International Space Station, they say that you go through different phases of adaptation or getting used to the space environment  (Adaptation Quotes) I tell myself that, regardless of what source I draw on, I’m writing a new work for reasons peculiar to me and not an adaptation, and so feel, in the end, justified in singing it my way  (Adaptation Quotes) Life is challenging for everyone. If someone can believe that he’s a sovereign in his tiny domain, it’s just an adaptation to life  (Adaptation Quotes) Archimedes constructing his circle pays with his life for his defective biological adaptation to immediate circumstances  (Adaptation Quotes) To Kill a Mockingbird’ appeared to highly favorable reviews and quickly climbed to the top of bestseller lists, where it remained for more than eighty weeks. In 1961, the novel was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. A film adaptation was released in 1962, starring Gregory Peck, and received three Academy Awards  (Adaptation Quotes) Once we accept violence as an adaptation, it makes sense that its expression is calibrated to the environment. The same individual will behave differently if he comes of age in Detroit, Mich., versus Windsor, Ontario; in New York in the 1980s versus New York now; in a culture of honor versus a culture of dignity  (Adaptation Quotes) Often in the past, there have been authors that were deeply disappointed in their adaptation, but that’s because they haven’t accepted the fact that a movie is a different thing, and it can’t possibly be the same as the book  (Adaptation Quotes) In all works on Natural History, we constantly find details of the marvellous adaptation of animals to their food, their habits, and the localities in which they are found.  (Adaptation Quotes) A big moment for me was when I did a play that was a new adaptation of Dostojevskij’s ‘Crime and Punishment,’ and I played Raskolnikov. It was actually the first thing I did when I got out of acting school.  (Adaptation Quotes) A while ago, I did a television adaptation of ‘Bleak House,’ and the character I played, as far as I was concerned, had no redeeming features whatsoever. I wasn’t about to try to find any; I didn’t need to.  (Adaptation Quotes) Education must be based on the certainty that faults cannot be atoned for or blotted out, but must always have their consequences. At the same time, there is the other certainty that, through progressive evolution, by slow adaptation to the conditions of environment, they may be transformed.  (Adaptation Quotes) As Americans, we have traditionally been the optimists sporting the ‘can-do’ attitude. But when it comes to addressing climate adaptation and resiliency, we seem to be more ‘can’t do’ than ‘can-do.’  (Adaptation Quotes) Archimedes constructing his circle pays with his life for his defective biological adaptation to immediate circumstances.  (Adaptation Quotes) They give me the money, I give them the book. Having input into the adaptation would be kind of like selling a house and coming back three years later and saying, ‘Paint it this color!’  (Adaptation Quotes) From the American retelling of Romeo and Juliet in West Side Story to the Japanese adaptation of King Lear in Ran, Shakespeare’s cultural influence is virtually limitless.  (Adaptation Quotes) Precise adaptation, with each part finely honed to perform a definite function in an optimal way, can only lead to blind alleys, dead ends, and extinction.  (Adaptation Quotes) I did an adaptation for a movie called ‘The Devil in the White City’ by Erik Larson for Warner Brothers. I love that book.  (Adaptation Quotes) In general, my own experience of writing an adaptation of ‘Evening’ gave me a chance to get into different parts of the book.  (Adaptation Quotes)
