Text Quotes
At this time on a weekday morning, the library was refuge to the retired, the unemployed, and the unemployable. ... ‘I’m not always this gabby,’ the librarian said. ‘It’s just so nice to talk to someone who isn’t constructing a conspiracy theory or watching videos of home accidents on YouTube.  (Constructing Quotes) When I’m constructing a poem, I’m trying to write one good line after another. One solid line after another. You know a lot of the lines - some hold up better as lines than others. But I’m not thinking of just writing a paragraph and then chopping it up  (Constructing Quotes) Archimedes constructing his circle pays with his life for his defective biological adaptation to immediate circumstances.  (Constructing Quotes) I am fascinated by the engineering. The science of constructing and understanding why it stands. And I am drawn by the madness, the beauty, the theatricality, the poetry and soul of the wire. And you cannot be a wire-walker without mingling those two ways of seeing life.  (Constructing Quotes) If you had managed to persuade my mother not to procreate, I would not exist to send you the plans for constructing your own time machine in which to travel back in time to persuade my mother not to procreate. Apparently, this is known as a pair of ducks.  (Constructing Quotes) Some designers retain a sense of humour about what they do, but others are deathly serious and have no life outside of it; they’re lying awake night after night constructing dresses in their heads.  (Constructing Quotes) Beijing is constructing a 100,000 m2 modern art museum, yet it will not feature any of my work  (Constructing Quotes) The traditional notion of an architect having a vision of a building and then drawing it either on paper or on a computer and then constructing it isn’t really how architecture works, and in reality, the computer has a lot of influence on design.  (Constructing Quotes) Devout believers are safeguarded in a high degree against the risk of certain neurotic illnesses; their acceptance of the universal neurosis spares them the task of constructing a personal one  (Constructing Quotes) The word constructionism is a mnemonic for two aspects of the theory of science education underlying this project. From constructivist theories of psychology we take a view of learning as a reconstruction rather than as a transmission of knowledge. Then we extend the idea of manipulative materials to the idea that learning is most effective when part of an activity the learner experiences as constructing a meaningful product  (Constructing Quotes) It is almost as if you were frantically constructing another world while the world that you live in dissolves beneath your feet, and that your survival depends on completing this construction at least one second before the old habitation collapses  (Constructing Quotes) The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe. Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?  (Constructing Quotes) Look closely at the present you are constructing: it should look like the future you are dreaming  (Constructing Quotes) Look closely at the present you are constructing. It should look like the future you dream of  (Constructing Quotes) I am not interested in constructing a building, so much as in having a perspicuous view of the foundations of possible buildings  (Constructing Quotes) By the fourth grade, I graduated to an erector set and spent many happy hours constructing devices of unknown purpose where the main design criterion was to maximize the number of moving parts and overall size  (Constructing Quotes) In the case of the stomach, however, the nerves of the glandular cells were always severed when constructing an artificially isolated pouch and this, naturally, affected the normal work of the stomach  (Constructing Quotes) As I began making my feature films, it was a great adventure. It was about constructing something I saw in my head or I had designed on storyboards and capturing that on film  (Constructing Quotes) There are two ways of constructing a software design; one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult  (Constructing Quotes) Paradoxically one of the greatest advantages of mind maps is that they are seldom needed again. The very act of constructing a map is itself so effective in fixing ideas in memory that very often a whole map can recalled without going back to it at all. A mind map is so strongly visual and uses so many of the natural functions of memory that frequently it can be simply read off in the mind’s eye  (Constructing Quotes) What interests me is the opportunity for all of us to become something different from what we are, by constructing spaces that contribute something to the experience of who we are  (Constructing Quotes) Insofar as the theorist wins, therefore, by constructing an increasingly closed and terrifying machine, to that very degree he loses, since the critical capacity of his work is thereby paralysed, and the impulses of negation and revolt, not to speak of those of social transformation, are increasingly perceived as vain and trivial in the face of the model itself  (Constructing Quotes) We treat our future selves as though they were our children, spending most of the hours of most of our days constructing tomorrows that we hope will make them happy  (Constructing Quotes) It should not be a surprise to find that s/m fantasy is significant in women’s sex lives. Women may be born free but they are born into a system of subordination. We are not born into equality and do not have equality to eroticise. We are not born into power and do not have power to eroticise. We are born into subordination and it is in subordination that we learn our sexual and emotional responses. It would be surprising indeed if any woman reared under male supremacy was able to escape the forces constructing her into a member of an inferior slave class  (Constructing Quotes) The single most important lesson of effective communication is this: Focus on clarity. Concentrate on precisions. Don’t worry about constructing beautiful sentences. Beauty comes from meaning, not language. Accuracy is the most effective style of all  (Constructing Quotes) The science of constructing a commonwealth or renovating it, or reforming it, is... not to be taught a priori... That which in the first instance is prejudicial may be excellent in its remoter operation, and its excellence may rise even from the ill effects it produces in the beginning. The reverse also happens; and very plausible schemes, with very pleasing commencements, have often shameful and lamentable conclusions  (Constructing Quotes) It has become inordinately difficult even to begin to think about constructing a naturalistic theory of the evolution of that first reproducing organism  (Constructing Quotes) I cannot live or write without music. It stimulates the normally dormant parts of my brain that come in handy when constructing fiction  (Constructing Quotes) In constructing concepts, we overlook the fact that no two things are the same. There is no such thing as the concept of a leaf, only billions and billions of leaves  (Constructing Quotes) The traditional notion of an architect having a vision of a building and then drawing it either on paper or on a computer and then constructing it isnt really how architecture works, and in reality, the computer has a lot of influence on design  (Constructing Quotes)
