Less Is More Quotes (page 3)

Praise God (or whatever it is) from (if direction exists) whom (if personality exists) all blessings (if that word corresponds to any percept of objective reality) flow (if Heraclitus and Bergson and Einstein are correct in stating that everything is more or less flowing about). Dorothy L. Sayers
Charles Caleb Colton quote: "Wealth... is a relative thing since he that has little and..."
Wealth... is a relative thing since he that has little and wants less is richer than he that has much but wants more. Charles Caleb Colton
Our thought should not merely be an answer to what someone else has just said. Or what someone else might have said. Our interior world must be more than an echo of the words of someone else. There is no point in being a moon to somebody else's sun, still less is there any justification for our being moons of one another, and hence darkness to one another, not one of us being a true sun. Thomas Merton
for Steve, less is always more, simpler is always better. Therefore, if you can build a glass box with fewer elements, it’s better, it’s simpler, and it’s at the forefront of technology. That’s where Steve likes to be, in both his products and his stores. Walter Isaacson
He rewarded me with one of those brilliant smiles. If I had been less professional, it might have melted me into my socks. There was a tinge of evil to it, a lot of sex, but under that was a little boy peeking out, an uncertain little boy. That was it. That was the attraction. Nothing is more appealing than a handsome man who is also uncertain of himself. It appeals not only to the woman in us all, but the mother. A dangerous combination. Laurell K. Hamilton
Barbara Kingsolver quote: "Sadness is more or less like a head cold - with patience, it..."
Sadness is more or less like a head cold - with patience, it passes. Depression is like cancer. Barbara Kingsolver
All truths wait in all things, They neither hasten their own delivery nor resist it, They do not need the obstetric forceps of the surgeon, The insignificant is as big to me as any,(What is less or more than a touch)... Walt Whitman
Not less, but more democracy - that is the demand, that is the great goal that we have to prescribe for ourselves, and especially for our youth. Gustav Heinemann
Sachin Tendulkar quote: "My point of view is that when I am playing cricket I cannot..."
My point of view is that when I am playing cricket I cannot think that this game is less or more important. Sachin Tendulkar
In most films music is brought in at the end, after the picture is more or less locked, to amplify the emotions the filmmaker wants you to feel. Ken Burns
There is a strange sort of reasoning in Hollywood that musicals are less worthy of Academy consideration than dramas. It's a form of snobbism, the same sort that perpetuates the idea that drama is more deserving of Awards than comedy. Gene Kelly
Although the particular inclination of the homosexual person is not a sin, it is more or less strong tendency ordered to an intrinsic moral evil, and thus the inclination itself must be seen as an objective disorder. Joseph Ratzinger
Jose Ortega y Gasset quote: "Every life is, more or less, a ruin among whose debris we have..."
Every life is, more or less, a ruin among whose debris we have to discover what the person ought to have been. Jose Ortega y Gasset
Though simple, the trick was something that struck me as useful right now. Thus, the 'when I was little' nostalgia was misleading: it turned something that I was taking seriously as an adult into something soupier, less precise, more falsely exotic, than it really was. Why should we need lots of nostalgia to license any pleasure taken in the discoveries we carry over from childhood, when it is now so clearly an adult pleasure? I decided that from now on I wouldn't get that faraway look when... Nicholson Baker
You should never read just for "enjoyment." Read to make yourself smarter! Less judgmental. More apt to understand your friends' insane behavior, or better yet, your own. Pick "hard books." Ones you have to concentrate on while reading. And for god's sake, don't let me ever hear you say, "I can't read fiction. I only have time for the truth." Fiction is the truth, fool! Ever hear of "literature"? That means fiction, too, stupid. John Waters
