Admits Quotes

Sometimes you have to jumpstart the world just to get it to be what even the world admits it should be Picture Quote #1

Internationalism on the other hand admits that spiritual achievements have their roots deep in national life; from this national consciousness art and literature derive their character and strength and on it even many of the humanistic sciences are firmly based Picture Quote #1

Human misery universally arises from some error that man admits as true. We confound our fears with the idea feared, and place the evil in the thing seen or believed. Here is a great error, for we never see what we are afraid of Picture Quote #1

When a writer admits that he has an affection for something which he has written, it is high time to pray for his soul Picture Quote #1

Language forms a kind of wealth, which all can make use of at once without causing any diminution of the store, and which thus admits a complete community of enjoyment; for all, freely participating in the general treasure, unconsciously aid in its preservation Picture Quote #1

The mathematician of today admits that he can neither square the circle, duplicate the cube or trisect the angle. May not our mechanicians, in like manner, be ultimately forced to admit that aerial flight is one of that great class of problems with which men can never cope... I do not claim that this is a necessary conclusion from any past experience. But I do think that success must await progress of a different kind from that of invention Picture Quote #1

By your late thirties the ground has begun to grow hard. It grows harder and harder until the day that it admits you Picture Quote #1

What should we think of someone who never admits error, never entertains doubt but adheres unflinchingly to the same ideas all his life, regardless of new evidence? Doubt and skepticism are signs of rationality. When we are too certain of our opinions, we run the risk of ignoring any evidence that conflicts with our views. It is doubt that shows we are still thinking, still willing to reexamine hardened beliefs when confronted with new facts and new evidence Picture Quote #1

The world censures those who take up arms to defend their causes and calls on them to use nonviolent means in voicing their grievances. But when a people chooses the nonviolent path, it is all too often the case that hardly anyone pays attention. It is tragic that people have to suffer and die and the television cameras have to deliver the pictures to people’s homes every day before the world at large admits there is a problem Picture Quote #1

There’s something about a guy who admits he’s a jerk that makes him forgiveable Picture Quote #1

Every honest researcher I know admits he’s just a professional amateur. He’s doing whatever he’s doing for the first time. That makes him an amateur. He has sense enough to know that he’s going to have a lot of trouble, so that makes him a professional Picture Quote #1

A cosmology that admits of only one male God limits women’s capacity to envision their full potential as human beings Picture Quote #1

A man often runs the risk of throwing away a witticism if he admits that it is his own Picture Quote #1

The innocent one is he who does not explain, for whom life is both a mystery and a total light, one who does not complain... For innocence admits of neither regret nor dispute. The innocent one assumes all responsibility Picture Quote #1

No sin is committed merely because a thought enters the mind, provided it is not made welcome. Perhaps we may use the figure that the thought first passes into an anteroom, where it stands before the mind acting as a judge. No matter how sordid or evil, it has not touched the personality with its infamy nor in any way laid guilt upon the soul unless and until the mind acting as judge admits it with a welcome. If the mind decides against it and dismisses it, the personality is not only unsullied but is, on the contrary, by this act of rejection stimulated and strengthened in moral power Picture Quote #1

When an instrument admits two constructions, the one safe, the other dangerous, the one precise, the other indefinite, I prefer that which is safe and precise Picture Quote #1

Science admits no exceptions; otherwise there would be no determinism in science, or rather, there would be no science Picture Quote #1

Youth is always a little offended to find itself not preferred: it cannot help feeling that when it admits the old to its society, it confers a benefit Picture Quote #1

The very existence of society depends on the fact that every member of it tacitly admits he is not the exclusive possessor of himself, and that he admits the claim of the polity of which he forms a part, to act, to some extent, as his master Picture Quote #1

Our virtues are dearer to us the more we have had to suffer for them. It is the same with our children. All profound affection admits a sacrifice Picture Quote #1

Everyone admits that love is wonderful and necessary, yet no one agrees on just what it is Picture Quote #1
