Text Quotes
Originality implies a return to the origins, original is returning to the simplicity of the first solutions  (Origins Quotes) I shall discuss the broad patterns of hominoid evolution, an exercise made enjoyable by the need to integrate diverse kinds of information, and use that as a vehicle to speculate about hominoid origins, an event for which there is no recognized fossil record. Hence, an opportunity to exercise some imagination  (Origins Quotes) All the arts are based on the presence of man, only photography derives an advantage from his absence. Photography affects us like a phenomenon in nature, like a flower or a snowflake whose vegetable or earthly origins are an inseparable part of their beauty  (Origins Quotes) The rejection of all abstract formalism. Materialism reminds every science of its real source: the world men transform. No science can, whether in its history or its object, grasp its own origins within itself or constitute itself as a closed world, exhaustively defined by internal rules. Materialism refers every science and every activity to the reality they depend on, even if this dependence is masked by a great many abstract mediations: mathematics as well as logic, aesthetics as well as ethics and politics  (Origins Quotes) As time passed I became an avid reader of popular scientific books, wanting to know as much as I could about the world in which I lived. Gradually I began to see a pattern of nonsense in much scientific writing. Scientific explanations given regarding the origins or functioning of various phenomena simply didn’t make sense  (Origins Quotes) To observe the world carefully, to write a lot and often, on a schedule if necessary, to use the dictionary a lot, to look up word origins, to analyze closely the work of writers you admire, to read not only contemporaries but writers of the past, to learn at least one foreign language, to live an interesting life outside of writing  (Origins Quotes) Power, however it has evolved, whatever its origins, will not be given up without a struggle  (Origins Quotes) The origins of poetry are clearly rooted in obscurity, in secretiveness, in incantation, in spells that must at once invoke and protect, tell the secret and keep it  (Origins Quotes) The novel since its origins has been the privatization of history... the history of private life... and in that sense every novel is an historical novel  (Origins Quotes) Everything we know has its origins in questions. Questions, we might say, are the principal intellectual instruments available to human beings  (Origins Quotes) I believe we are a species with amnesia, I think we have forgotten our roots and our origins. I think we are quite lost in many ways. And we live in a society that invests huge amounts of money and vast quantities of energy in ensuring that we all stay lost. A society that invests in creating unconsciousness, which invests in keeping people asleep so that we are just passive consumers or products and not really asking any of the questions  (Origins Quotes) To teach means scarcely anything more than to show how things differ from one another in their different purposes, forms, and origins... Therefore, he who differentiates well teaches well  (Origins Quotes) Our music, whose eternal being is forever bound up in its temporal sounds, is not merely an art, enriching beyond measure our cultural life, but also a message from higher worlds, raising and urging us on by it’s reminders of our own eternal origins  (Origins Quotes) When we notice a connection between our present fears and their origins in early life, we are finding out how much of our identity is designed by fear. Is fear the architect of me?  (Origins Quotes) I do think that the abiding mystery of my origins has definitely had a profound effect upon my writing. There is that thing in the back of my mind where I think I don’t really know who I am. And it may make it a little easier to shift around in my narrative voice  (Origins Quotes) Consumer wants can have bizarre, frivolous, or even immoral origins, and an admirable case can still be made for a society that seeks to satisfy them. But the case cannot stand if it is the process of satisfying wants that create the wants  (Origins Quotes) I like nature but not its substitutes... Mondrian opposed art to nature saying that art is artificial and nature is natural. I do not share this opinion... Art’s origins are natural  (Origins Quotes) Changes in societal structure and in art would possess more credibility if they had their origins in the soul and spirit. If people read the words of the prophets with closer attention, they would find the keys to life  (Origins Quotes) After realising my natural affinity towards surrealism several years ago I decided to study it’s origins and definitions  (Origins Quotes) In an age when man has forgotten his origins and is blind even to his most essential needs for survival, water along with other resources has become the victim of his indifference  (Origins Quotes) We not only speak but think and even dream in words. Language is a mirror in which the whole spiritual development of mankind reflects itself. Therefore, in tracing words to their origins, we are tracing simultaneously civilization and culture to their real roots  (Origins Quotes) The critique of the highest values hitherto does not simply refute them or declare them invalid. It is rather a matter of displaying their origins as impositions which must affirm precisely what ought to be negated by the values established  (Origins Quotes) Fishing should be a ceremony that reaffirms our place in the natural world and helps us resist further estrangement from our origins  (Origins Quotes) Things good in themselves... perfectly valid in the integrity of their origins, become fetters if they cannot alter  (Origins Quotes) Calamities that are not the result of purely natural phenomena usually have their origins, distant and obscure though they may be, in common human failings  (Origins Quotes) By the time the traditionally male lexicographers become interested in looking at fashion words, their origins are lost in the mists of time  (Origins Quotes) Through searching out origins, one becomes a crab. The historian looks backwards, and finally he also believes backwards  (Origins Quotes) Parents have subtle ways of humbling you, of reminding you of your origins, perhaps by showing up at the moment of your greatest glory and reminding you where you came from and demonstrating that you still have some of it between your toes  (Origins Quotes) Man will return to his origins. Goethe has finally become as squiggly as the city of his fathers  (Origins Quotes) Consider your origins: you were not made to live as brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge  (Origins Quotes)
