Difficulty Quotes

Everyone my age had written a novel and I was still having difficulty writing a paragraph Picture Quote #1

The chief difficulty which prevents men of science from believing in divine as well as in nature Spirits is their materialism Picture Quote #1

People seem to sometimes have a difficulty drawing that line between the character and the person Picture Quote #1

The difficulty of IVF or of any fertility issues is the hope and the shattered hope, the dream that it might happen this time and then it doesn’t happen Picture Quote #1

Spain is facing an economic situation of extreme difficulty, I repeat, of extreme difficulty, and anyone who doesn’t understand that is fooling themselves Picture Quote #1

The difficulty for the Government is there’s this ideological straitjacket of the market will provide, let the market rip and everything will work out... It’s back to trickle-down economics, which, it’s plain to see, have not delivered Picture Quote #1

There are interesting forms of difficulty, and there are unprofitable forms of difficulty. I mean, I enjoy some difficult poetry, but some of it is impenetrable and I actually wouldn’t want to penetrate it if I could, perhaps Picture Quote #1

The difficulty over the question of eternal torments lies in how it is irreconcilable with the Goodness of God Picture Quote #1

Cease to think of an impossibility and you will seize an opportunity for productivity. Excellence comes when you leave thoughts of imposibilities behind and live by the focus of faith and hope in the face of difficulty Picture Quote #1

When I’m dealing with the 18th century, as I do in ‘The Firebird,’ the difficulty isn’t only finding what a woman did, it’s finding her at all. Most of the sources I’m dealing with - letters and memoirs and written reports of the day - have been written by men Picture Quote #1

Mistakes, after all, are endemic to foreign and military policy given the unpredictability of events and the difficulty of securing reliable information in a place like Iraq Picture Quote #1

It is not at all coincidental that Darwinian psychology has the same difficulty explaining the unity and integration of human reasoning as Darwinian biology has explaining the unity and integration of irreducibly complex functions. Practical and theoretical reasoning is often irreducibly complex. A given argument has several well-matched, interacting reasons, and the removal of any one of them makes the argument break down Picture Quote #1

God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty Picture Quote #1

Nor let a God come in, unless the difficulty be worthy of such an intervention. [Lat., Nec deus intersit nisi dignus vindice nodus.] Picture Quote #1
