Text Quotes
We are heading towards catastrophe. I think the world is going to pieces. I am very pessimistic. Why? Because the world hasn’t been punished yet, and the only punishment that could be adequate is the nuclear destruction of the world  (Adequate Quotes) The strange thing about life is that though the nature of it must have been apparent to every one for hundreds of years, no one has left any adequate account of it  (Adequate Quotes) A day’s pay for a day’s work is more than adequate when both the work and the pay are appreciated as much as they are expected  (Adequate Quotes) When cafe life thrives, talk is a shared limberness of the mind that improves appetite for conversation: an adequate sentence maker is then made good, a good one excellent, an excellent one extraordinary  (Adequate Quotes) For compassion a human heart suffices, but for full and adequate sympathy, with joy, an angel’s only  (Adequate Quotes) Every poet depends upon generations who wrote in his native tongue; he inherits styles and forms elaborated by those who lived before him.

The activity for which the only adequate bribe is the possibility of suicide, one day  (Adequate Quotes) We may have a perfectly adequate way of doing something, but that does not mean there cannot be a better way. So we set out to find an alternative way. This is the basis of any improvement that is not fault correction or problem solving  (Adequate Quotes) The supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a simple datum of experience  (Adequate Quotes) Collective wisdom, alas, is no adequate substitute for the intelligence of individuals. Individuals who opposed received opinions have been the source of all progress, both moral and intellectual. They have been unpopular, as was natural  (Adequate Quotes) Instead I just let the silence stretch out between us. It’s the only adequate response to what he just told me, the only that does the tragedy any justice instead of patching it hastily and moving on  (Adequate Quotes) Not to have an adequate air force in the present state of the world is to compromise the foundations of national freedom and independence  (Adequate Quotes) Cruelty is, in theory, a perfectly adequate ground for divorce, but it may be interpreted so as to become absurd  (Adequate Quotes) If you feel that you’re not ready to die, never fear; nature will give you complete and adequate assistance when the time comes  (Adequate Quotes) As for those that carried out these attacks there are no adequate words of condemnation. Their barbarism will stand as their shame for all eternity  (Adequate Quotes) Teaching is one of the noblest of professions. It requires an adequate preparation and training, patience, devotion, and a deep sense of responsibility. Those who mold the human mind have wrought not for time, but for eternity  (Adequate Quotes) A world government with powers adequate to guarantee security is not a remote ideal for the distant future. It is an urgent necessity if our civilization is to survive  (Adequate Quotes) Acquisition of skills requires a regular environment, an adequate opportunity to practice, and rapid and unequivocal feedback about the correctness of thoughts and actions  (Adequate Quotes) It is willingness of people to give of themselves over and above the demands of the job that distinguishes the great from the merely adequate  (Adequate Quotes) It is easy to specify the individual objects of admiration in these grand scenes; but it is not possible to give an adequate idea of the higher feelings of wonder, astonishment, and devotion, which fill and elevate the mind  (Adequate Quotes) We have no adequate conception of the perfection of the ancient tragic dance. The pleasure which the greeks received from it had for its basis difference; and the more unfit the vehicle, the more lively was the curiosity and intense the delights at seeing the difficulty overcome  (Adequate Quotes) All the world’s major religions, with their emphasis on love, compassion, patience, tolerance, and forgiveness can and do promote inner values.

This is why I am increasingly convinced that the time has come to find a way of thinking about spirituality and ethics beyond religion altogether  (Adequate Quotes) Too often, attention is diverted from the needs of populations, insufficient emphasis is placed on work in the fields, and the goods of the earth are not given adequate protection.
