Questioned Quotes (page 102)

Ludwig Wittgenstein quote: "The real question of life after death isn't whether or not it..."
The real question of life after death isn't whether or not it exists, but even if it does what problem this really solves. Ludwig Wittgenstein
Edward Abbey quote: "Not all questions can be answered."
Not all questions can be answered. Edward Abbey
I can't help comparing what I have with Gale to what I'm pretending to have with Peeta. How I never question Gale's motives while I do nothing but doubt the latter's. It's not a fair comparison really. Gale and I were thrown together by a mutual need to survive. Peeta and I know the other's survival means our own death. How do you sidestep that? Suzanne Collins
Symptomatic of this rural-urban identity crisis is our eager embrace of a recently imposed divide: the Red States and the Blue States. That color map comes to us with the suggestion that both coasts are populated by educated civil libertarians, while the vast middle and south are criss-crossed with the studded tracks of ATVs leaving a trail of flying beer cans and rebel yells. Okay, I'm exaggerating a little. But I certainly sense a bit of that when urban friends ask me how I can stand living... Barbara Kingsolver
The question is: is it better to be alive or dead? Is it nobler to put up with all the nasty things that luck throws your way, or to fight against all those troubles by simply putting an end to them once and for all? Dying, sleeping—that’s all dying is—a sleep that ends all the heartache and shocks that life on earth gives us—that’s an achievement to wish for. To die, to sleep—to sleep, maybe to dream. Ah, but there’s the catch: in death’s sleep who knows what kind of dreams might come, after... William Shakespeare
The man who agrees with us that some question, little regarded by others, is of great importance can be our Friend. He need not agree with us about the answer. C. S. Lewis
The question of the next generation will not be one of how to liberate the masses, but rather, how to make them love their servitude. Aldous Huxley
I've asked you fifty questions and still have no sense of your life, your family, what you care about. They want to know about you, Katniss."But I don't want them to! They're already taking my future! They can't have the things that mattered to time in the past!" I say. Suzanne Collins
Making a living and having a life are not the same thing. Making a living and making a life that's worthwhile are not the same thing. Living the good life and living a good life are not the same thing. A job title doesn't even come close to answering the question. "What do you do?". Robert Fulghum
May, will you please, kindly DIG it," he remembered one of them saying, "and hold up on all those wonderful seven-dollar questions? If you got to ask what IS it all the time, you'll never get time to KNOW. Robert M. Pirsig
Oscar Wilde quote: "In examinations the foolish ask questions that the wise cannot..."
In examinations the foolish ask questions that the wise cannot answer. Oscar Wilde
Where do you come from?"...This is the number one most-asked question in all of South Carolina. We want to know if you are one of us, if your cousin knows our cousin, if your little sister went to school with our big brother, if you go to the same Baptist church as our ex-boss. We are looking for ways our stories fit together. Sue Monk Kidd
We are accused of being obsessed by property. The truth is the other way round. It is the society and culture in question which is so obsessed. Yet to an obsessive his obsession always seems to be of the nature of things and so is not recognized for what it is. The relation between property and art in European culture appears natural to that culture, and consequently if somebody demonstrates the extent of the property interest in a given cultural field, it is said to be a demonstration of his... John Berger
Herman Hesse quote: "I have always thirsted for knowledge, I have always been full..."
I have always thirsted for knowledge, I have always been full of questions. Herman Hesse
Did you ever wonder if the person in the picture is the same one you see when you look in the mirror?" - "That's the eternal question, isn't it? Are we born who we are, or do we make ourselves that way? Jodi Picoult
