Text Quotes
I would advise all professional athletes to get involved and to try to help make a difference.We can make a huge impact. We can be that difference maker just because of our status and because of what we do. If we don’t, who else will?  (Status Quotes) Everything that these folks are saying that they’re trying to move away from, like comparison, perfectionism, judgement, and exhaustion as a status symbol - that all describes my life. It was more like a medical researcher studying a disease and figuring out he or she has it  (Status Quotes) In society, we have to earn other things of import like trust, respect, money, education, careers, status and etc., so naturally, we find ourselves attempting to earn love, acceptance and validation along with that. Here’s the trip: we do it at the cost of other people and, more importantly, ourselves  (Status Quotes) My dad would always say, ‘Girl, you’ve been given gifts. Use them.’ And what he meant by that was, ‘Don’t just be successful. Don’t just use your talents for your own success. But make a difference with them. Do something significant.’ And when I put those two things together, it just causes me to not accept the status quo  (Status Quotes) I’ve never been difficult to anybody or with anybody on a picture. Especially when you’re in that nice status of hierarchy of actors and actresses who get to approve directors. Because once you make that choice, it’s my belief that the director’s boss.  (Status Quotes) In a culture of hyper-consumption the advertising industry has brainwashed many people into believing they can raise their status just by driving a particular brand of whatever it is they are pushing at you.  (Status Quotes) With compassion you can die for other people, like the mother who can die for her child. You have the courage to say it because you are not afraid of losing anything, because you know that understanding and love is the foundation of happiness. But if you have fear of losing your status, your position, you will not have the courage to do it.  (Status Quotes) The separate water foundations, park benches, bathrooms and restaurants of the Jim Crow South startled me. These experiences motivated my lifelong study of the status of African Americans and the sources of improvement in that status.  (Status Quotes) Being born white in South Africa or anywhere in the empire and Commonwealth automatically conferred this special status. You had no problem finding a place to live, a job, trade union membership, access to social services. Being white, speaking English, you were accepted as English, entitled to all the rights of citizenship.  (Status Quotes) Hackerspaces are the digital-age equivalent of English Enlightenment coffee houses. They are places open to all, indifferent to social status, and where ideas and knowledge hold primary value.  (Status Quotes) I’ve had a very unusual background in science - not the usual route of planning on being a scientist from age 3. I think my story shows that success is more about personal motivation and determination than it is about where you were born or what your economic status was.  (Status Quotes) Dick Cheney and Al Gore have redefined the role of the vice president in the minds of the public. It should be a big job, beyond simply checking the health status of the president.  (Status Quotes) Younger women are willing to go out with high status males. If you look at the kind of women Salman Rushdie attracts, they tend to be intelligent, arty types. For her, it’s a kudos thing. The man just wants a good-looking girl because he imagines that when his friends see him, they’ll all think, ‘Gosh I wish I was him.’  (Status Quotes) I tell residents, if you gave me two patients with identical problems, and one of them had family at the bedside with a lot of laughter, plus photos and a quilt from home, and next door was another patient who was alone every time I came by - I’m going to be very nervous about the isolated patient’s mental status.  (Status Quotes) If you’re looking at distributing alternative energy in Nigeria, for instance, what gets in your way is not people’s ability to pay, not people’s desire for a clean solar lamps or biomass opportunities. But there is a strong status quo that really depends on selling diesel.  (Status Quotes) If we do not provide education for every single American, we are consigning those without an education to second-class status.  (Status Quotes) I don’t accept the status quo. I do accept Visa, MasterCard, or American Express.  (Status Quotes) If you don’t belong somewhere, that outsider status you have gives you perspective. Of course, another word for outsider is ‘exile,’ and that’s not fun at all.  (Status Quotes) Art is by nature promotional, pushing beliefs, broadcasting status, aggrandizing personalities  (Status Quotes) Corporatist attitudes against capitalism came to the fore in the 1920s. Corporatists, with their conservative values, hated the invasion of towns and regions by new businesses, upsetting traditional ways, wealth and status.  (Status Quotes) I think ‘Gatsby’ is hobbled, in part, by its status as a Great American Novel. People kind of roll their eyes before they’ve even opened it, treat it with a ‘been there, done that’ attitude. I know I did. It took me years to re-open the novel and see how much I’d missed.  (Status Quotes) I’ve dated attractive people and I don’t find a correlation between amorous enthusiasm and beauty and public figure status.  (Status Quotes) When something really bad is going on in a culture, the average guy doesn’t see it. He can’t. He’s average and is surrounded by and immersed in the can’t and discourse of the status quo.  (Status Quotes) Myth, legend, and ritual ... function to maintain a status quo. That makes them singularly bad in coping with change, indeed counterproductive, for change is the enemy of myth.  (Status Quotes) Things that are in bad taste are often renegade and rebellious. They go against the status quo, and the laws of decorum and modesty. And that can be really thrilling.  (Status Quotes) In Wisconsin, I led the Assembly to a balanced budget in face of fierce opposition from the status quo.  (Status Quotes) The lobbying over China most favored nation trading status was disgusting. There’s no way in hell that MFN would have passed in 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000 if all these companies hadn’t come in flooding and making campaign contributions and ask for people’s support. That drove the debate. Every year was the allure of corporate dollars flooding into members’ bank accounts.  (Status Quotes) Our constitution should be inspired by the philosophy of the Koran with principles that are set in stone and not open to the whims of individual judges, as is the case now. In particular, the constitution should protect every citizen’s basic human rights regardless of their sex, status or sect. Everyone should be equal before the law.  (Status Quotes) Allah says in the Qur’an not to despise one another. So the criterion in Islam is not color or social status. It’s who is most righteous. If I go to a mosque - and I’m a basketball player with money and prestige - if I go to a mosque and see an imam, I feel inferior. He’s better than me. It’s about knowledge.  (Status Quotes) Most ideas never happen. It’s an uphill battle against the status quo and our own tendencies.  (Status Quotes)
