Text Quotes
Being the chief minister of a regional government is just a pastime compared with the hellish job of being prime minister of two different communities brought together  (Chief Quotes) My chief job is to constantly stir or rekindle the curiosity of people that gets driven out by bureaucracy and formal schooling systems  (Chief Quotes) I think there is irony in the fact that the computer is both their chief venue of communication and propaganda and also the mother of all their fears  (Chief Quotes) The most effective teacher will always be biased, for the chief force in teaching is confidence and enthusiasm  (Chief Quotes) Moving fashion used to be one of my chief goals. It’s not necessarily any more. Fashion needs to change when life changes. You only need to move fashion forward when there’s a reason to move fashion forward  (Chief Quotes) The anarch is oriented to facts, not ideas. He fights alone, as a free man, and would never dream of sacrificing himself to having one inadequacy supplant another and a new regime triumph over the old one. In this sense, he is closer to the philistine; the baker whose chief concern is to bake good bread; the peasant, who works his plow while armies march across his fields  (Chief Quotes) Thus, if a composer wants to produce music that is relevant to his contemporaries, his chief problem is not really musical, though it may seem to him to be so; it is a problem of attitude to contemporary society and culture in relation to the basic human problem of learning to be human  (Chief Quotes) What is the good of life if its chief element, and that which must always be its chief element, is odious? No, the only true economy is to arrange so that your daily labor shall be itself a joy  (Chief Quotes) The chief problem with television is that, for those who watch it consistently, it undermines and eventually destroys the ability to think. This is because it communicates primarily images, not by words, and words are necessary if we are to perceive logical connections and make judgments as to what is right and wrong  (Chief Quotes) What men prize most is a privilege, even if it be that of chief mourner at a funeral  (Chief Quotes) The aggressive spirit, the offensive, is the chief thing everywhere in war, and the air is no exception  (Chief Quotes) The two men were greedily hunched over the table, like two wolves disputing a carcass, but their muttered speech in the echoing hall resembled more the grunting of pigs. One was less than a wolf: he was a public prosecutor. The other was more than a pig, he was a chief commissioner of police  (Chief Quotes) If my house is on fire, I don’t need the fire chief telling me I should not have built the house out of wood. I need somebody to put the fire out  (Chief Quotes) There is no one force, no group, and no class that is the preserver of liberty. Liberty is preserved by those who are against the existing chief power. Oppositions which do not express genuine social forces are as trivial, in relation to entrenched power, as the old court jesters  (Chief Quotes) Presidents, leaders, to be effective have to represent the whole to the parts and to the world outside. They may live in the centre but they must not be the centre. To reinforce the common sense they must be a constant teacher, ever travelling, ever talking, ever listening, the chief missionary of the common cause  (Chief Quotes) It is clear that the chief end of mathematical study must be to make the students think  (Chief Quotes) Words are one of our chief means of adjusting to all the situations of life. The better control we have over words, the more successful our adjustment is likely to be  (Chief Quotes) Humanitarianism needs no apology. Unless we... feel it toward all men without exception, we shall have lost the chief redeeming force in human history  (Chief Quotes) Criticism can never instruct or benefit you. Its chief effect is that of a telegram with dubious news. Praise leaves no glow behind, for it is a writer’s habit to remember nothing good of himself. I have usually forgotten those who have admired my work, and seldom anyone who disliked it. Obviously, this is because praise is never enough and censure always too much  (Chief Quotes) The chief evil with relation to the body is love for the body and pitying it. This takes away all the soul’s authority over the body and makes the soul the slave of the body. And on the contrary, one who does not spare the body will not be disturbed in whatever he does by apprehensions born of blind love of life. How fortunate is one who is trained to this from childhood!  (Chief Quotes) Don’t instill, or allow anybody else to instill into the hearts of your girls the idea that marriage is the chief end of life. If you do, don’t be surprised if they get engaged to the first empty, useless fool they come across  (Chief Quotes) There is no way of influencing men so powerfully as by means of the women. These should therefore be our chief study; we should insinuate ourselves into their good opinion, give them hints of emancipation from the tyranny of public opinion, and of standing up for themselves; it will be an immense relief to their enslaved minds to be freed from any one bond of restraint, and it will fire them the more, and cause them to work for us with zeal, without knowing that they do so; for they will only be indulging their own desire of personal admiration  (Chief Quotes) The chief support of an autocracy is a standing army. The chief support of a democracy is an educated people  (Chief Quotes) The chief pang of most trials is not so much the actual suffering itself as our own spirit of resistance to it  (Chief Quotes) Writing is in fact an entirely outworn, decayed and corrupt convention whose chief and most conspicuous character is its monumental witness to the conservatism, laziness and irrationality of men and women  (Chief Quotes) Short of actual blunders, lack of faith in one’s position is the chief cause of defeat. To be sure, it is easy to recommend faith and not so easy to practise it  (Chief Quotes) My chief study all my life has been to lighten misfortunes and multiply pleasures, as far as human nature can  (Chief Quotes) Experience has taught me that there is one chief reason why some people succeed and others fail. The difference is not one of knowing, but of doing. The successful man is not so superior in ability as in action. So far as success can be reduced to a formula, it consists of this: doing what you know you should do  (Chief Quotes) I think it rather fine, this necessity for the tense bracing of the will before anything worth doing can be done. I rather like it myself. I feel it is to be the chief thing that differentiates me from the cat by the fire  (Chief Quotes) Man’s chief delusion is his conviction that there are causes other than his own state of consciousness  (Chief Quotes)
