Questions Quotes (page 82)

The classical anthropological question, What is man?—"how like an angel, this quintessence of dust!"—is not now asked by anthropologists. Instead, they commence with a chapter on Physical Anthropology and then forget the whole topic and go on to Culture. Paul Goodman
George Orwell quote: "Sanity was statistical. It was merely a question of learning..."
Sanity was statistical. It was merely a question of learning to think as they thought. George Orwell
Perhaps I am no one. True, I have a body and I cannot escape from it. I would like to fly out of my head, but that is out of the question. Anne Sexton
He left the unspoken question hanging in the air. How did one annoy a two- kilometre-long black rectangular slab? And just what form would its disapproval take Arthur C. Clarke
We were not born critical of existing society. There was a moment in our lives (or a month, or a year) when certain facts appeared before us, startled us, and then caused us to question beliefs that were strongly fixed in our consciousness-embedded there by years of family prejudices, orthodox schooling, imbibing of newspapers, radio, and television. This would seem to lead to a simple conclusion: that we all have an enormous responsibility to bring to the attention of others information they... Howard Zinn
Crisis or transition of any kind reminds us of what matters most. In the routine of life, we often take our families-our parents and children and siblings-for granted. But in times of danger and need and change, there is no question that what we care about most is our families! It will be even more so when we leave this life and enter into the spirit world. Surely the first people we will seek to find there will be father, mother, spouse, children, and siblings. M. Russell Ballard

Frantz Fanon quote: "Oh my body, make of me a man who always questions!"
Oh my body, make of me a man who always questions! Frantz Fanon
Here is the true meaning and value of compassion and nonviolence, when it helps us to see the enemy's point of view, to hear his questions, to know his assessment of ourselves. For from his view we may indeed see the basic weaknesses of our own condition, and if we are mature, we may learn and grow and profit from the wisdom of the brothers who are called the opposition. Martin Luther King jr.
Everything will happen as was written by the Lord," replied the prophet. "There are moments when tribulations occur in our lives, and we cannot avoid them. But they are there for some reason."What reason?"That is a question we cannot answer before, or even during the trials. Only when we have overcome them do we understand why they were there. Paulo Coelho
A question. So what are people supposed to do if they want to avoid a collision (thud!) but still lie in the field, enjoying the clouds drifting by, listening to the grass grow—not thinking, in other words? Sound hard? Not at all. Logically, it’s easy. C’est simple. The answer is dreams. Dreaming on and on. Entering the world of dreams, and never coming out. Living in dreams for the rest of time. In dreams you don’t need to make any distinctions between things. Not at all. Boundaries don’t... Haruki Murakami
And here Alice began to get rather sleepy, and went on saying to herself, in a dreamy sort of way, 'Do cats eat bats? Do cats eat bats?' and sometimes, 'Do bats eat cats?' for, you see, as she couldn't answer either question, it didn't much matter which way she put it. Lewis Carroll
The relation between the white and colored people of this country is the great, paramount, imperative, and all-commanding question for this age and nation to solve. Frederick Douglass
The control of a large force is the same principleas the control of a few men: it is merely a question of dividing uptheir numbers. Sun Tzu
Katharine Graham quote: "Some questions don't have answers, which is a terribly..."
Some questions don't have answers, which is a terribly difficult lesson to learn. Katharine Graham
