Opinion Quotes (page 40)

The opinion which other people have of you is their problem, not yours. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Our Press and our schools cultivate Chauvinism, militarism, dogmatism, conformism and ignorance. The arbitrary power of the Government is unlimited, and unexampled in history; freedom of the Press, of opinion and of movement are as thoroughly exterminated as though the proclamation of the Rights of Man had never been. We have built up the most gigantic police apparatus, with informers made a national institution, and the most refined scientific system of political and mental torture. We whip... Arthur Koestler
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "We are so fond of being out in Nature because it has no..."
We are so fond of being out in Nature because it has no opinions of us. Friedrich Nietzsche
There was no such person as Mrs. Wayne Wilmot; there was only a shell containing the opinions of her friends, the picture post cards she had seen, the novels of country squires she had read; it was this that he had to address, this immateriality which could not hear him or answer, deaf and impersonal like a wad of cotton.

The qualities that make for excellence in children's literature can be summed up in a single word: imagination. And imagination as it relates to the child is, to my mind, synonymous with fantasy. Contrary to most of the propaganda in books for the young, childhood is only partly a time of innocence. It is, in my opinion, a time of seriousness, bewilderment, and a good deal of suffering. It's also possibly the best of all times. Imagination for the child is the miraculous, freewheeling device... Maurice Sendak
All I could do was to offer you an opinion upon one minor point? a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction. Virginia Woolf
Pride," observed Mary, who piqued herself upon the solidity of her reflections, "is a very common failing, I believe. By all that I have ever read, I am convinced that it it very common indeed; that human nature is particularly prone to it, and that there are very few of us who do not cherish a feeling of self-complacency on the score of some quality or the other, real or imaginary. Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud... Jane Austen
An artist must know the reality he is depicting in its minutest detail. In my opinion we have only one shining example of that - Count Leo Tolstoy. Fyodor Dostoevsky
C. S. Lewis quote: "Everything is as good or bad as our opinion makes it."

Ralph Waldo Emerson quote: "The measure of a master is his success in bringing all men..."
The measure of a master is his success in bringing all men around to his opinion twenty years later. Ralph Waldo Emerson
The quality of ideas seems to play a minor role in mass movement leadership. What counts is the arrogant gesture, the complete disregard of the opinion of others, the singlehanded defiance of the world. Eric Hoffer
O, Times! O, Manners! It is my opinion That you are changing sadly your dominion I mean the reign of manners hath long ceased, For men have none at all, or bad at least; And as for times, altho' 'tis said by many The "good old times" were far the worst of any, Of which sound Doctrine I believe each tittle Yet still I think these worst a little. I've been a thinking -isn't that the phrase?- I like your Yankee words and Yankee ways - I've been a thinking, whether it were best To Take things... Edgar Allan Poe
Anne Frank quote: "People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but that doesn't..."
People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but that doesn't stop you from having your own opinion. Anne Frank
