Thinks Quotes (page 694)

If you listen to the political discourse in America today, you would think that all our problems have been caused by the Mexicans of the Chinese or the Muslims. The reality is that we have caused our own problems. Whatever has happened has been caused by isolating ourselves or blaming others. Fareed Zakaria

I think it's fairly obvious that a lot more suffering goes on in the name of love than the little happiness you can squeeze out of it. Nick Cave
Nora Roberts quote: "It was best not to think, not to analyze. It was best to..."
It was best not to think, not to analyze. It was best to accept and act. Nora Roberts

Write what you need to write, not what is currently popular or what you think will sell. P. D. James
The intellect is of no use unless it’s disciplined by the mortification of the flesh, so that it may serve the soul. That’s all. The intellect thinks. The body dances. And the spirit sings. A song, a simple song. When love and memory are overwhelming, and the soul, though crushed, takes flight, it does so in a simple song. Mark Helprin
I find economics increasingly satisfactory, and I think I am rather good at it. I want to manage a railroad or organise a Trust or at least swindle the investing public John Maynard Keynes

if you don't concentrate on what you are doing then the thing that you are doing is not what you are thinking. Alfred Lord Tennyson
Everything everyone thinks they know about [Mother Teresa] is false. It must be the single most successful emotional con job of the twentieth century. Christopher Hitchens
There's no such thing as life without bloodshed. I think the notion that the species can be improved in some way, that everyone could live in harmony, is a really dangerous idea. Those who are afflicted with this notion are the first ones to give up their souls, their freedom. Your desire that it be that way will enslave you and make your life vacuous. Cormac McCarthy
Charles M. Schulz quote: "I wonder if there's such a thing as a spiritual dentist? I..."
I wonder if there's such a thing as a spiritual dentist? I think my whole personality is full of cavities! Charles M. Schulz
Camille Paglia quote: "[Nietzsche thinks artists undersexed]:"
[Nietzsche thinks artists undersexed]: Camille Paglia
From his shoulder on down, the Rat felt the supple weight of her body. An odd sensation, that weight. This being that could love a man, bear children, grow old, and die; to think one whole existence was in this weight. Haruki Murakami
As for measure and other technical apparatus, that’s just common sense: if you’re going to buy a pair of pants you want them to be tight enough so everyone will want to go to bed with you.
