Against Quotes

When you begin a picture you often make some pretty discoveries. You must be on guard against these. Destroy the thing, do it over several times. In each destroying of a beautiful discovery, the artist does not really suppress it, but rather condenses it, makes it more substantial. What comes out in the end is the result of discarded finds. Otherwise you become your own connoisseur Picture Quote #1

The simple recognition that everyone else wants to be happy and not to suffer, just as I do, serves as a constant reminder against selfishness and partiality. It reminds us there is little to be gained from being kind and generous while hoping to win something in return. Actions motivated by a desire to earn a good name for ourselves are still selfish, even if they appear to be acts of kindness Picture Quote #1

It’s not a terrible thing that we feel fear when faced with the unknown. It is a part of being alive, something we all share. We react against the possibility of loneliness, of death, of not having anything to hold on to. Fear is a natural reaction to moving closer to the truth Picture Quote #1

When everything is added up, the frequent blows weighted against the sporadic triumphs, this is I have to say not just a vocation, it’s a great gift. But you also know this, for your work, for your passion, every day is a rededication. Painters, dancers, actors, writers, filmmakers. It’s the same for all of you, all of us. Every step is a first step. Every brush stroke is a test. Every scene is a lesson. Every shot is a school. So, let the learning continue Picture Quote #1

If it feels right and I’m not going against any energy in myself or the situation, there would be no limit Picture Quote #1

I always play every game like my back is against the wall, that this could be it Picture Quote #1

Man is a strange animal. He generally cannot read the handwriting on the wall until his back is up against it Picture Quote #1

Harshness towards individuals who flout the laws and commands of state is for the public good; no greater crime against the public interest is possible than to show leniency to those who violate it Picture Quote #1

Why is pot against the law? It wouldn’t be because anyone can grow it, and therefore you can’t make a profit off it, would it? Picture Quote #1

To escort a cat abroad on a leash is against the nature of a cat, and to permit it to venture forth for exercise unattended into a night of new dangers is against the nature of the owner Picture Quote #1

It is strange how we rebel against a platitude until suddenly in a different lingo it looms up again as the only verity Picture Quote #1

The scars left from the child’s defeat in the fight against irrational authority are to be found at the bottom of every neurosis Picture Quote #1

Fame and admiration weigh not a feather in the scale against friendship and love, for the heart languishes all the same Picture Quote #1

When a king sets himself to bandy against the highest court and residence of all regal powers, he then, in the single person of a man, fights against his own majesty and kingship Picture Quote #1

There is no defence against an evil which only the victims and the perpetrators know exists Picture Quote #1

The police feel that most of the public are against them and that there is a lot of bad feeling Picture Quote #1

The true conservative is the man who has a real concern for injustices and takes thought against the day of reckoning Picture Quote #1

Men may spurn our appeals, reject our message, oppose our arguments, despise our persons, but they are helpless against our prayers Picture Quote #1
