Text Quotes
Before the sacred, people lost all sense of power and all confidence; they occupy a powerless and humble attitude toward it. And yet no thing is sacred of itself, but by declaring it sacred, by my declaration, my judgment, my bending the knee; in short, by my - conscience.  (Declaring Quotes) Since declaring that she would not serve in a second Obama administration, Clinton has dismissed suggestions that she will run in 2016.  (Declaring Quotes) If you’re calling yourself a maverick and you’re not Dirk Nowitzki, then you are probably not one. In fact, this rule applies to anyone declaring themselves a ‘God-fearing Christian’ or a ‘Man of the people.’  (Declaring Quotes) Books are the most mannerly of companions, accessible at all times, in all moods, frankly declaring the author’s mind, without offense.  (Declaring Quotes) We speak of ‘software eating the world,’ ‘the Internet of Things,’ and we massify ‘data’ by declaring it ‘Big.’ But these concepts remain for the most part abstract. It’s hard for many of us to grasp the impact of digital technology on the ‘real world’ of things like rocks, homes, cars, and trees. We lack a metaphor that hits home.  (Declaring Quotes) I began to fear that Mos Def was being treated as a product, not a person, so I’ve been going by Yasiin since 99. At first it was just for friends and family, but now I’m declaring it openly.  (Declaring Quotes) On my fortieth birthday, rather than merely bore my friends by having anything as mundane as a midlife crisis I decided it might be more interesting to actually terrify them by going completely mad and declaring myself to be a magician  (Declaring Quotes) Before the sacred, people lose all sense of power and all confidence; they occupy a powerless and humble attitude toward it. And yet no thing is sacred of itself, but by my declaring it sacred, by my declaration, my judgment, my bending the knee; in short, by my - conscience.  (Declaring Quotes) My reasons for declaring a sexual preference had to do less with the pursuit of personal freedom than with the lust for pure shock value  (Declaring Quotes) Loudly declaring our soul’s desire can get the blood running and our passions blazing  (Declaring Quotes) Other animals can make sounds, and sounds can indicate pleasure and pain. But language, a distinctly human capacity, isn´t just for registering pleasure and pain. It´s about declaring what is just and what is unjust, and distinguishing right from wrong. We don´t grasp these things silently, and then put words to them; language is the medium through which we discern and deliberate about the good  (Declaring Quotes) For only fools, fanatics, and mental cases can stand living at the highest pitch of soul; a sane person must be content with declaring that life would not be worth living without a spark of that mysterious fire  (Declaring Quotes) Writing, therefore, is also an act of courage. How much easier is it to lead an unexamined life than to confront yourself on the page? How much easier is it to surrended to materialism or cynicism or to a hundred other ways of life that are, in fact, ways to hide from life and from our fears. When we write, we resist the facile seduction of theses simpler roads. We insist on finding out and declaring the truths that we find, and we dare to out those truths on the page  (Declaring Quotes) What concerns all, should be considered by all; and individuals may injure a whole society, by not declaring their sentiments. It is therefore not only their right, but their duty, to declare them  (Declaring Quotes) I will not tire of declaring that if we really want an effective end to violence we must remove the violence that lies at the root of all violence: structural violence, social injustice, exclusion of citizens from the management of the country, repression. All this is what constitutes the primal cause, from which the rest flows naturally  (Declaring Quotes) From the standpoint of modern political science the slave holders were right in declaring that liberty can be given only to those who have political capacity enough to use it, and they were also right in maintaining that two greatly unequal races cannot exist side by side on terms of perfect equality  (Declaring Quotes) I believe I once considerably scandalized her by declaring that clear soup was a more important factor in life than a clear conscience  (Declaring Quotes) One cannot be arraigned for declaring a war, which every ruler has to do once in a while, but only for running a war badly  (Declaring Quotes) I think declaring a no fly zone over foreign soil is tantamount to an act of war  (Declaring Quotes) Some pacifists have carried the sound idea of the prime importance of security too far, to the point of declaring that any consideration of disarmament is superfluous and pointless as long as eternal peace has not been attained  (Declaring Quotes) Marx, as we have seen, solved it by declaring capital to be a different thing from product, and maintaining that it belonged to society and should be seized by society and employed for the benefit of all alike  (Declaring Quotes) The executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is or is not cause for declaring war  (Declaring Quotes) So here I stand before you preaching organic architecture: declaring organic architecture to be the modern ideal  (Declaring Quotes) How is it they live in such harmony the billions of stars - when most men can barely go a minute without declaring war in their minds about someone they know  (Declaring Quotes) The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure  (Declaring Quotes) Our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go out into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism and militarism...

Such declarations usually produce only cynicism  (Declaring Quotes) You may have noticed, as I have, that if ever you find yourself declaring emphatically and unequivocally that you will never do some one particular thing, chances are good that this is precisely what you will one day find yourself doing  (Declaring Quotes)
