Judging Quotes (page 13)

Ravelstein mentioned that Keynes had married a Russian ballerina. He also explained to me that Uranus had fathered Aphrodite but that she had had no mother. She was conceived by the sea foam. He would say such things not because he thought I was ignorant of them but because he judged that I needed at a given moment to have my thoughts directed toward them. Saul Bellow
It was Anthony Marston who disagreed with the majority. 'A bit unsporting, what?' he said. 'Ought to ferret out the mystery before we go. Whole thing's like a detective story. Positively thrilling.' The judge said acidly: 'At my time of life, I have no desire for "thrills," as you call them.' Anthony said with a grin: 'The legal life's narrowing! I'm all for crime! Here's to it.' He picked up his drink and drank it off at a gulp. Too quickly, perhaps. He choked - choked badly. His face... Agatha Christie
I have frequently detected myself in such kind of mistakes... in a total misapprehension of character at some point or other: fancying people so much more gay or grave, or ingenious or stupid than they really are, and I can hardly tell why, or in what the deception originated. Sometimes one is guided by what other people say of them, without giving oneself time to deliberate and judge. Jane Austen
Ayaan Hirsi Ali quote: "I would like to be judged on the validity of my arguments, not..."
I would like to be judged on the validity of my arguments, not as a victim. Ayaan Hirsi Ali
Blaise Pascal quote: "We must keep our thought secret, and judge everything by it,..."
We must keep our thought secret, and judge everything by it, while talking like the people. Blaise Pascal
Those promises we make to ourselves when we are younger, about how we mean to conduct our adult lives, can it be true we break every last one of them? All except for one, I suppose: the promise to judge ourselves by those standards, the promise to remember the child who would be so appalled by compromise, the child who would find jadedness wicked. Jonathan Lethem
The future of humanity is uncertain, even in the most prosperous countries, and the quality of life deteriorates; and yet I believe that what is being discovered about the infinitely large and infinitely small is sufficient to absolve this end of the century and millennium. What a very few are acquiring in knowledge of the physical world will perhaps cause this period not to be judged as a pure return of barbarism. Primo Levi
I oppose same-sex marriage but I would advance equal rights in employment for gay and lesbian people. I appointed a few judges who were gay and I had few people in my cabinet that I found out were gay. I never asked peoples sexual orientation. Mitt Romney
How can we judge fairly of the characters and merits of men, of the wisdom or folly of actions, unless we have . . . an accurate knowledge of all particulars, so that we may live as it were in the times, and among the persons, of whom we read, see with their eyes, and reason and decide on their premises? William Wilberforce
Your success and happiness are forgiven you only if you generously consent to share them. But to be happy it is essential not to be too concerned with others. Consequently, there is no escape. Happy and judged, or absolved and wretched. Albert Camus
Only to the degree that people have what they need, that they are healthy and unafraid, that their lives are varied, interesting, meaningful, productive, joyous, can we begin to judge, or even guess, their nature. Few people, adults or children, now live such lives. John Holt
Paulo Coelho quote: "We can never judge the lives of others, because each person..."
We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. Paulo Coelho
Albert Einstein quote: "If you judge a fish by its 'ability' to climb a tree, it will..."
If you judge a fish by its 'ability' to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing it's stupid Albert Einstein
Jane Austen quote: "[…] no man can be a good judge of the comforts a woman feels..."
[…] no man can be a good judge of the comforts a woman feels in the society of one of her own sex […] Jane Austen
Jane Austen quote: "when people are waiting, they are bad judges of time, and..."
when people are waiting, they are bad judges of time, and every half minute seems like five. Jane Austen
