Rightful Quotes (page 46)

As in arithmetic-there is only one right answer to a sum, and all other answers are wrong; but some answers are much nearer being right than others. C. S. Lewis
Aldous Huxley quote: "All right then," said the Savage defiantly, "I'm claiming the..."
All right then," said the Savage defiantly, "I'm claiming the right to be unhappy. Aldous Huxley
Yes, you should talk," he said. "Sometimes a sad man can talk the sadness right out through his mouth. Sometimes a killin' man can talk the murder right out of his mouth. John Steinbeck
Your going to come across people in your life that say all the right things at the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. it's actions, not words, that matter. Nicholas Sparks
Man, Sub-creator, the refracted lightthrough whom is splintered from a single Whiteto many hues, and endlessly combinedin living shapes that move from mind to mind. Though all the crannies of the world we filledwith Elves and Goblins, though we dared to build. Gods and their houses out of dark and light, and sowed the seed of dragons, 'twas our right(used or misused). The right has not decayed. We make still by the law in which we're made. J. R. R. Tolkien
Our love of lockstep is our greatest curse, the source of all that bedevils us. It is the source of homophobia, xenophobia, racism, sexism, terrorism, bigotry of every variety and hue, because it tells us there is one right way to do things, to look, to behave, to feel, when the only right way is to feel your heart hammering inside you and to listen to what its timpani is saying. A. Whitney Brown
Each new thing he encountered in life impelled him in a direction that fully convinced him of its rightness, but then the next new thing loomed up and impelled him in the opposite direction, which also felt right. There was no controlling narrative: he seemed to himself a purely reactive pinball in a game whose only object was to stay alive for staying alive's sake. Jonathan Franzen
Because they claim to be concerned with the welfare of whole societies, governments arrogate to themselves the right to pass off as mere abstract profit or loss the human unhappiness that their decisions provoke or their negligence permits. It is a duty of an international citizenship to always bring the testimony of people's suffering to the eyes and ears of governments, sufferings for which it's untrue that they are not responsible. The suffering of men must never be a mere silent residue... Michel Foucault
Kelly Miller quote: "If initiative is the ability to do the right thing, then..."
If initiative is the ability to do the right thing, then efficiency is the ability to do the thing right. Kelly Miller
Sometimes people leave you halfway through the wood. Others may decieve you - you decide what's good. You decide alone, but no one is alone. People make mistakes. Fathers, mothers, people make mistakes, holding to their own, thinking they're alone. Honor their mistakes. Fight for their mistakes. Witches can be right. Giants can be good. You decide what's right. You decide what's good. Stephen Sondheim
The human spirit glows from that small inner light of doubt whether we are right, while those who believe with certainty that they possess the right are dark inside and darken the world outside with cruelty, pain, and injustice. Saul Alinsky
It's about a girl who is on the cusp of becoming someone.. A girl who may not know what she wants right now, and she may not know who she is right now, but who deserves the chance to find out. Jodi Picoult
Aaron Sorkin quote: "Toby: All right. It couldn't have gone far, right? Sam:..."
Toby: All right. It couldn't have gone far, right? Sam: No. Toby: Somewhere in this building...is our talent. Aaron Sorkin
Sit in a room and read--and read and read. And read the right books by the right people. Your mind is brought onto that level, and you have a nice, mild, slow-burning rapture all the time. Joseph Campbell
V. S. Naipaul quote: "It isn't that there's no right and wrong here. There's no right."
It isn't that there's no right and wrong here. There's no right. V. S. Naipaul
