Text Quotes
Our relationship couldn’t continue to balance, as it did, on the point of a knife. We would fall off one edge or the other, depending entirely upon his decision, or his instincts. My decision was made, made before I’d ever consciously chosen, and I was committed to seeing it through. Because there was nothing more terrifying to me, more excruciating, than the thought of turning away from him. It was an impossibility  (Instincts Quotes) War stirs in men’s hearts the mud of their worst instincts. It puts a premium on violence, nourishes hatred, and gives free rein to cupidity. It crushes the weak, exalts the unworthy, and bolsters tyranny... Time and time again it has destroyed all ordered living, devastated hope, and put the prophets to death  (Instincts Quotes) I am beginning with the young. We older ones are used up. Yes, we are old already. We are rotten to the marrow. We have no unrestrained instincts left. We are cowardly and sentimental. We are bearing the burden of a humiliating past, and have in our blood the dull recollection of serfdom and servility. But my magnificent youngsters! Are there finer ones anywhere in the world? Look at these young men and boys! What material! With them, I can make a new world  (Instincts Quotes) It is certain that there may be extraordinary mental activity with an extremely small absolute mass of nervous matter: thus the wonderfully diversified instincts, mental powers, and affections of ants are notorious, yet their cerebral ganglia are not so large as the quarter of a small pin’s head. Under this point of view, the brain of an ant is one of the most marvelous atoms of matter in the world, perhaps more so than the brain of a man  (Instincts Quotes) Christianity has taken the part of all the weak, the low, the botched; it has made an ideal out of antagonism to all the self preservative instincts of sound life; it has corrupted even the faculties of those natures that are intellectually most vigorous, by representing the highest intellectual values as sinful, as misleading, as full of temptation  (Instincts Quotes) Under the sublime law of progress, the present outgrows the past. The great heart of humanity is heaving with the hopes of a brighter day. All the higher instincts of our nature prophesy its approach; and the best intellects of the race are struggling to turn that prophecy into fulfilment  (Instincts Quotes) Whenever we need to make a very important decision it is best to trust our instincts, because reason usually tries to remove us from our dream, saying that the time is not yet right. Reason is afraid of defeat, but intuition enjoys life and its challenges  (Instincts Quotes) Rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, let’s use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy and remind ourselves of all the ways that our hopes and dreams are bound together  (Instincts Quotes) Actually I’ve never had formal training, I was lucky enough to continue working most of my career and aside from sitting in on a couple of classes, here and there, I basically just use my own instincts  (Instincts Quotes) Within two weeks of working with her, I realized how good she was for the role because she was absolutely with it and she has got terrific instincts, I think, as an artist, too  (Instincts Quotes) Every genuine boy is a rebel and an anarch. If he were allowed to develop according to his own instincts, his own inclinations, society would undergo such a radical transformation as to make the adult revolutionary cower and cringe  (Instincts Quotes) What the media are telling you to be afraid of are the wrong things... Fear is a necessary ingredient of our survival instincts  (Instincts Quotes) The natural instincts of men seem to be to alternate between periods of love relationships and periods of hedonistic bachelorhood, with some traumatized kids thrown in as an evolutionary imperative  (Instincts Quotes) He doesn? T reckon his dog has human feelings, but he sure lets you know when you hurt his instincts  (Instincts Quotes) That was the most terrible thing that a woman could to a decent man: look vulnerable and ask him for mercy. If he refused her he’d be denying all his instincts as a provider and protector  (Instincts Quotes) What a betrayal of man’s dignity. He uses the highest gift, his mind, only ten percent, and his emotions and instincts ninety percent  (Instincts Quotes) As an actor, you deal with so much rejection and humiliation. When the good things come around, you tend not to trust your instincts  (Instincts Quotes) In that way imagination and intelligence enter into our existence in the part of servants of the primary instincts  (Instincts Quotes) Patriotism has its roots deep in the instincts and the affections. Love of country is the expansion of dutiful love  (Instincts Quotes) Our institutions are no good any more: on that there is universal agreement. However, it is not their fault but ours. Once we have lost all the instincts out of which institutions grow, we lose institutions altogether because we are no longer good for them  (Instincts Quotes) Work hard, use your common sense and don’t be afraid to trust your instincts  (Instincts Quotes) The active part of man consists of powerful instincts, some of which are gentle and continuous; others violent and short; some baser, some nobler, and all necessary  (Instincts Quotes) I was very fortunate in my gene mix. The gambling instincts I inherited from my father were matched by my mother’s gift for analysis  (Instincts Quotes) In all my public and private acts as your president, I expect to follow my instincts of openness and candor with full confidence that honesty is always the best policy in the end  (Instincts Quotes) We use our brains too little, and when we do, it is only to make excuses for our reflexes and our instincts  (Instincts Quotes) To think is to take a cunning revenge in which we camouflage our baseness and conceal our lower instincts  (Instincts Quotes) For better or worse, the struggle against terror may well intensify, rather than ameliorate, unilateralist and isolationist instincts  (Instincts Quotes) To know thyself must mean to know the malignancy of one’s own instincts and to know, as well, one’s power to deflect it  (Instincts Quotes) But their intervention makes our acts to serve ever less merely the immediate claims of our instincts  (Instincts Quotes) If we did not bring to the examinations of our instincts a knowledge of their comparative dignity we could never learn it from them  (Instincts Quotes)
