The only real radicalism in our time will come as it always has—from people who insist on thinking for themselves and who reject party-mindedness. Christopher Hitchens
Love of music, of sunsets and sea; a liking for the same kind of people; political opinions that are not radically divergent; a similar stance as we look at the stars and think of the marvelous strangeness of the universe - these are what build a marriage. And it is never to be taken for granted. Madeleine L'Engle
C. S. Lewis quote: "Nowhere in Chaucer do we find what can be called a radically..."
Nowhere in Chaucer do we find what can be called a radically allegorical poem. C. S. Lewis

The Auditors fluttered anxiously. And, as always happens in their species when something goes radically wrong and needs fixing instantly, they settled down to try to work how who was to blame. Terry Prachett
The untutored egotist merely wants what he wants. Give him a religious education, and it becomes obvious to him, it becomes axiomatic, that what he wants is what God wants, that his cause is the cause of whatever he may happen to regard as the True Church and that any compromise is a metaphysical Munich, an appeasement of Radical Evil. Aldous Huxley
I was trying to unravel the complicated trigonometry of the radical thought that silence could make up the greatest lie ever told. Pat Conroy
Our Job is not to make young women grateful. It is to make the ungrateful so they keep going. Gratitude never radicalized anybody Susan B. Anthony
Critical and radical thought will only bear fruit when it is blended with the most precious quality man is endowed with - the love of life Erich Fromm
Can human nature ever be wholly and radically transformed? Can the man whom God made good be made wicked by man? Can the soul be reshaped in its entirety by destiny and made evil because destiny is evil? Can the heart become misshapen and afflicted with ugly, incurable deformities under disproportionate misfortune, like a spinal column bent beneath a too low roof? Victor Hugo
MINISTER: All he has done is to find some means of bewitching the intelligence. He has only induced a radical suspension of disbelief. As in the early days of the cinema, all the citizens are jumping through the screen to lay their hands on the naked lady in the bathtub! AMBASSADOR: And yet, in fact, their fingers touch flesh. MINISTER: They believe they do. Yet all they touch is substantial shadow. AMBASSADOR: And what a beautiful definition of flesh! You know I am only substantial shadow,... Angela Carter
