The racing driver's mind has to have the ability to have amazing anticipation, coordination, and reflex. Because of the speed the car goes.
The present time is seldom able to fill desire or imagination with immediate enjoyment, and we are forced to supply its deficiencies by recollection or anticipation.
This idea of weapons of mass exterminations utterly horrible and is something which no one with one spark of humanity can tolerate. I will not pretend to obey a government which is organizing a mass massacre of mankind
We needn't first conduct cross-national comparision to determine if crimes like rape or massacre should be prohibited in our place.
We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort.
I recently had my annual physical examination, which I get once every seven years, and when the nurse weighed me, I was shocked to discover how much stronger the Earth's gravitational pull has become since 1990.
Whenever there is authority, there is a natural inclination to disobedience.
I learned that the richness of life is found in adventure. . . . It develops self-reliance and independence. Life then teems with excitement. There is stagnation only in security.
Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.
It is the awareness of unfulfilled desires which gives a nation the feeling that it has a mission and a destiny.
The existence of inherent limits of experience in no way settles the question about the subordination of facts of the human world to our knowledge of matter.
Only in men's imagination does every truth find an effective and undeniable existence. Imagination, not invention, is the supreme master of art as of life.
The universe is like a safe to which there is a combination. But the combination is locked up in the safe.
The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets which it must turn over to the next generation increased, and not impaired in value.
The outgrowth of conservation, the inevitable result, is national efficiency.
Practical efficiency is common, and lofty idealism is not uncommon; it is the combination that is necessary, and that combination is rare.
In the old world that is passing, in the new world that is coming, national efficiency has been and will be a controlling factor in national safety and welfare.
You live on earth only for a few short years which you call an incarnation, and then you leave your body as an outworn dress and go for refreshment to your true home in the spirit.
As long as war is looked upon as wicked, it will always have its fascination. When it is looked on as vulgar, it will cease to be popular.
Anthropology has always struggled with an intense, fascinated repulsion towards its subject.... [The anthropologist] submits himself to the exotic to confirm his own inner alienation as an urban intellectual.
The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation.
Honesty may be the best policy, but it's important to remember that apparently, by elimination, dishonesty is the second-best policy.
Dishonest scales are an abomination to the LORD,
but a just weight is His delight
A great many things which in times of lesser knowledge we imagined to be superstitious or useless, prove to-day on examination to have been of immense value to mankind.
Justice is what is established; and thus all our established laws will necessarily be regarded as just without examination, since they are established.
The crucial question one comes back to is the examination; without that experience is meaningless. And I think it's true that society is becoming more and more passive, less and less fired up with enthusiasm, in many spheres.
The proper route to an understanding of the world is an examination of our errors about it.
There is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.
There's so much of, it could have been a very critical examination of what happened, and really the emotional lives of the people involved sort of carry the characters forward.
