"If faith cannot be reconciled with rational thinking, it has to be eliminated as an anachronistic remnant of earlier stages of culture and replaced by science dealing with facts and theories which are intelligible and can be validated."
Erich Fromm
"Who will tell whether one happy moment of love, or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies?"
Erich Fromm
"By working faithfully eight hours a day you may eventually get to be boss and work twelve hours a day."
Robert Lee Frost
"The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working when you get up in the morning, and doesn't stop until you get to the office."
Robert Lee Frost
"The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office."
Robert Lee Frost
"We must dare to think 'unthinkable' thoughts. We must learn to explore all the options and possibilities that confront us in a complex and rapidly changing world. We must learn to welcome and not to fear the voices of dissent. We must dare to think about 'unthinkable things' because when things become unthinkable, thinking stops and action becomes mindless."
J(ames) William Fulbright
"Only the dreamer shall understand realities, though in truth his dreaming must be not out of proportion to his waking."
(Sarah) Margaret Fuller
"When I'm working on a problem, I never think about beauty. I think only how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong."
Richard Buckminster Fuller
"When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong."
Richard Buckminster Fuller
"The common dogma [of fundamentalists] is fear of modern knowledge, inability to cope with the fast change in a scientific-technological society, and the real breakdown in apparent moral order in recent years.... That is why hate is the major fuel, fear is the cement of the movement, and superstitious ignorance is the best defence against the dangerous new knowledge. ... When you bring up arguments that cast serious doubts on their cherished beliefs you are not simply making a rhetorical point, you are threatening their whole Universe and their immortality. That provokes anger and quite frequently violence. ... Unfortunately you cannot reason with them and you even risk violence in confronting them. Their numbers will decline only when society stabilizes, and adapts to modernity."
G Gaia
"The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking."
John Kenneth Galbraith
"The beginnings and endings of all human undertakings are untidy."
John Galsworthy
"I was looking for an American symbol. A Coca-Cola bottle or a Mickey Mouse would have been ridiculous, doing anything with the American flag would have been insulting, and Cadillac hub caps were just too uncomfortable." (speaking about the dress she wore made of American Express Cards)"
Lizzy Gardiner
"Over-seriousness is a warning sign for mediocrity and bureaucratic thinking. People who are seriously committed to mastery and high performance are secure enough to lighten up."
Michael J. Gelb
"He who sees the truth, let him proclaim it, without asking who is for it or who is against it."
Henry George
"On a good day, I view the job [of president] as directing an orchestra. On the dark days, it is more like that of a clutch-engaging the engine to effect forward motion, while taking greater friction."
A(ngelo) Bartlett Giamatti
"Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain."
Kahlil Gibran
"Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need."
Kahlil Gibran
"My friends and my road-fellows, pity the nation that is full of beliefs and empty of religion. "Pity the nation that wears a cloth it does not weave, eats a bread it does not harvest, and drinks a wine that flows not from its own winepress. "Pity the nation that acclaims the bully as hero, and that deems the glittering conqueror bountiful. "Pity the nation that raises not its voice save when it walks in a funeral, boasts not except among its ruins, and will rebel not save when its neck is laid between the sword and the block. "Pity the nation whose statesman is a fox, whose philosopher is a juggler, and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking. "Pity the nation that welcomes its new ruler with trumpetings, and farewells him with hootings, only to welcome another with trumpetings again. "Pity the nation divided into fragments, each fragment deeming itself a nation."
Kahlil Gibran
"Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it."
