Text Quotes
The great black and white draftsman, the sculptor, and the blind man know that form and color are separate. The form itself is what the blind man knows... Color is surface skin that fits over the form  (The Great Quotes) Rowing against the tide is hard and uncertain. To go with the tide and thus take advantage of the workings of the great natural force is safe and easy  (The Great Quotes) Conformities are called for much more eagerly today than yesterday... skeptics, liberals, individuals with a taste for private life and their own inner standards of behavior, are objects of fear and derision and targets of persecution for either side... in the great ideological wars of our time  (The Great Quotes) On the other side of the spirit veil, I spend more than a little bit of time researching the hallucinogens. I personally believe ayahuasca is also the greatest natural healing agent, period  (The Great Quotes) He should avail himself of their resources in such ways as to advance the expression of the spirit in the life of mankind. He should use them so as to afford to every human being the greatest possible opportunity for developing and expressing his distinctively human capacity as an instrument of the spirit, as a centre of sensitive and intelligent awareness of the objective universe, as a centre of love of all lovely things, and of creative action for the spirit  (The Great Quotes) I got a lot of flak originally for writing with photographs, because the great cliche in photography is that one photograph is worth a thousand words, and photographers are usually dodo birds anyway  (The Great Quotes) I wish I was better at art. I love some of the great artists of the 19th century and, compared to them, I just feel I lack this technique that they had. They have so much skill  (The Great Quotes) The natural power of breastfeeding is one of the greatest wonders of the world. It is about real love. It is about caring and celebrating the wondrous joy of nurturing a new life. It is about enjoying being a woman  (The Great Quotes) One of the greatest things you can do to help others is not just to share and give what you have, but to help them discover what they have within themselves to help themselves  (The Great Quotes) The greatest danger in life is not taking chances. There are so many negative people wanting to grind you down, but you can’t let them. If people say you are mad, you know you’re on the right track  (The Great Quotes) The greatest gift children can give you is that, for the first time, you’re not the center of your own universe  (The Great Quotes) I am still determined to be cheerful and to be happy in whatever situation I may be, for I have also learnt from experianence that the greater part of our happiness or misary depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances; we carry the seeds of the one, or the other about with us, in our minds, wherever we go  (The Great Quotes) To me, one of the greatest triumphs in doing a book is to tell the story as simply as possible. My aim is to imply rather than to overstate. Whenever the reader participates with his own interpretation, I feel that the book is much more successful. I write with the premise that less is more. Writing is not difficult to me. I read into a tape recorder, constantly dropping a word here and there from my manuscript until I get a minimum amount of words to say exactly what I want to say. Each time I drop a word or two, it brings me a sense of victory!  (The Great Quotes) I think one of the greatest gifts you can give to someone is just access to the possibility of freedom that you don’t have to be totally depressed and enslaved by your own environment  (The Great Quotes) The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily it’s not the same taste  (The Great Quotes) The written word has taught me to listen to the human voice, much as the great unchanging statues have taught me to appreciate bodily motions  (The Great Quotes) If theory is the role of the architect, then such beautiful proofs are the role of the craftsman. Of course, as with the great renaissance artists, such roles are not mutually exclusive. A great cathedral has both structural impressiveness and delicate detail. A great mathematical theory should similarly be beautiful on both large and small scales  (The Great Quotes) Human life is an extension of the principles of nature, and human civilization is a venture extrapolated out of human natures: man and his natural potential are the root of the entire human domain. The great task of all philosophizing is to become competent to interpret and steer the potential developmental forces in human natures and in the human condition, both of which are prodigiously fatalistic  (The Great Quotes) Induction makes you feel guilty for getting something out of nothing, and it is artificial, but it is one of the greatest ideas of civilization  (The Great Quotes) Reading is the basic springboard for learning. And books provide the liftoff. They are the great equalizer, opening up new worlds to everyone  (The Great Quotes) The moment I realised that my history was an excuse for nothing, was the moment I was freed from my history. The great danger of history is that we use it as an excuse and remain trapped in it. I cannot blame my history for anything, and therefore I have to have high standards for myself  (The Great Quotes) No, I don’t admire the genius. But I admire and love the result of the genius’s activity in the world, of which the great man is only the poor necessary tool, only, so to speak, the paltry awl to bore with  (The Great Quotes) The best way to insure you achieve the greatest satisfaction out of life is to behave intentionally  (The Great Quotes) The task of the intellectual is not one of blending into the opaque consciousness of the tumultuous mob around him, his voice drowned in a cacophony of misdirected protests. His task is to remind them of who they are and what they ought to be. Our values are not to be taken from conduct of our adversaries but from the great heritage of our people  (The Great Quotes) The greatest compliment a writer can be given is that a story and character hold a reader spellbound. Im caught up in the story writing and I miss a good deal of sleep thinking about it and working out the plot points  (The Great Quotes) One of the great things about being gay and out is that the papers couldn’t care less about your love life  (The Great Quotes) See yourself as a pioneer in a new world. We are not facing the end of the world, as some would have us believe, but the greatest adventure of our lives. We have the unique opportunity to write a new chapter in the history of humankind, to be active participants in shaping a new world  (The Great Quotes) Every person who dedicates his or her life to something that belongs to the greater good is very meaningful  (The Great Quotes) I love amazing people. I love dazzling them. That’s why I think performing magic is one of the greatest things a person can do  (The Great Quotes) It isn’t a coincidence that prayer was commanded right after the year of sadness. The prayer was the greatest comfort  (The Great Quotes)
