Instructed Quotes

To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics Picture Quote #1

Fascinatingly resilient the tenacity of a child. Not yet conditioned by society to give up when instructed to do so Picture Quote #1

There is not, perhaps, to a mind well instructed, a more painful occurrence, than the death of one we have injured without reparation Picture Quote #1

Society was calling to its accomplished child to come, to be taken care of, to be instructed, to be judged, to be condemned; it called him to return to that rubbish heap from which he had wandered away, so that justice could be done Picture Quote #1

Great knowledge is requisite to instruct those who have been well instructed, but still greater knowledge is requisite to instruct those who have been neglected Picture Quote #1

The majority of people have no understanding of the things with which they daily meet, nor, when instructed, do they have any right knowledge of them, although to themselves they seem to have Picture Quote #1

Governments are not built to perceive large truths. Only people can perceive great truths. Governments specialize in small and intermediate truths. They have to be instructed by their people in great truths Picture Quote #1

My greatest challenge has been to change the mindset of people. Mindsets play strange tricks on us. We see things the way our minds have instructed our eyes to see Picture Quote #1

My rebelliousness went so deep that, faced with a can of asparagus that instructed me to open at this end, I always, stubbornly, opened it at the other Picture Quote #1

The reader has certain rights. He bought your story. Think of this as an implicit contract. He’s entitled to be entertained, instructed, amused; maybe all three. If he quits in the middle, or puts the book down feeling his time has been wasted, you’re in violation Picture Quote #1

You want to make people laugh and by virtue of that please them, but when you’re instructed to make people laugh and please them, you’re too resentful to do it Picture Quote #1

The verdict is still out on my life, the judge having not yet instructed the jury, both of whom are me Picture Quote #1

Those people who think only of themselves, are hopelessly uneducated. They are not educated, no matter how instructed they may be Picture Quote #1

Perhaps teachers should be instructed in a program where they lie to their students on a regular basis to sharpen up their skills at detecting lies Picture Quote #1

Architects should be educated, skillful with the pencil, instructed in geometry, know much history, have followed the philosophers with attention, understand music, have some knowledge of medicine, know the opinions of the jurists, and be acquainted with astronomy and the theory of the heavens Picture Quote #1

Praying is the same to the new creature as crying is to the natural. The child is not learned by art or example to cry, but instructed by nature; it comes into the world crying. Praying is not a lesson got by forms and rules of art, but flowing from principles of new life itself Picture Quote #1

I usually use quick sketches that I accumulated from the figure drawing classes I once instructed Picture Quote #1
