Top Inevitabilities Quotes

Inevitabilities Quotes By Matthew J. Wolf-Meyer

The imposition of the inevitability--that the everyday must unfold in particular ways and that all bodies should behave similarly--creates parity among actors, in this case between individuals and society, between one and the masses; it renders them isomorphic and subject to the same rules. In the social formulation of the inevitabilities of American capitalism and expectations of human desire, these isomorphic bodies are rendered congruent in rough fashion and inseparable. — Matthew J. Wolf-Meyer

Inevitabilities Quotes By Marguerite Duras

War is a generality, so are the inevitabilities of war, including death. — Marguerite Duras

Inevitabilities Quotes By Baron De Montesquieu

Friendship is a contract in which we render small services in expectation of big ones. — Baron De Montesquieu

Inevitabilities Quotes By Louise Carey

Give me excess of love, whatever it costs. We pay with our souls, and if we die with our souls intact we know we haven't loved enough. — Louise Carey

Inevitabilities Quotes By Brian Friel

Yes, it is a rich language, Lieutenant, full of the mythologies of fantasy and hope and self-deception - a syntax opulent with tomorrows. It is our response to mud cabins and a diet of potatoes; our only method of replying to ... inevitabilities. — Brian Friel

Inevitabilities Quotes By Steven A. Moore

I wonder if God is really as hot as Alanis Morissette. — Steven A. Moore

Inevitabilities Quotes By Victor Hugo

Superstitions, bigotries, hypocrisies, prejudices, these phantoms, phantoms though they be, cling to life; they have teeth and nails in their shadowy substance, and we must grapple with them individually and make war on them without truce; for it is one of humanity's inevitabilities to be condemned to eternal struggle with phantoms. — Victor Hugo

Inevitabilities Quotes By Franjo Tudjman

The estimated loss of up to six million dead is founded too much on both emotional, biased testimonies and on exaggerated data in the postwar reckonings of war crimes and on the squaring of accounts with the defeated. — Franjo Tudjman

Inevitabilities Quotes By Matthew Scully

I know many people far more upright and conscientous than I am who disagree, who think nothing of it. I know that vegetarianism runs against mankind's most casual assumptions about the world and our place within it. And I know that factory farming is an economic inevitability, not likely to end anytime soon.
But I don't answer to inevitabilities, and neither do you. I don't answer to the economy. I don't answer to tradition and I don't answer to Everyone. For me, it comes down to a question of whether I am a man or just a consumer. Whether to reason or just to rationalize. Whether to heed my conscience or my every craving, to assert my free will or just my will. Whether to side with the powerful and comfortable or with the weak, afflicted, and forgotten. — Matthew Scully

Inevitabilities Quotes By Franny Billingsley

I think about the Old Ones, that they have a past but no history. I think about the inevitability of death, and whether it's not that very inevitability that inspires us to take photographs and make scrapbooks and tell stories. That that's how we humans find our way to immortality. This is not a new thought; I've had such thoughts before. But I have a new thought now.
That that's how we find our way toward meaning.
Meaning. If you're going to die, you want to find meaning in life.
You want to connect the dots. — Franny Billingsley

Inevitabilities Quotes By Mara Liasson

As one conservative intellectual said to me - he said if the choice is between [Joseph] Stalin and [Adolf] Hitler, I'd pick Stalin, meaning Ted Cruz because he's more predictable. So there's real civil war inside the Republican Party. — Mara Liasson

Inevitabilities Quotes By Peggy Noonan

Our patriotic fervor was the result of the old and widespread belief in the idea of American exceptionalism, the idea that America was a new thing in history, different from other countries. Other nations had evolved one way or another, evolved from tribes from a gathering of clans, from inevitabilities of language and tradition and geography. But America was born, and born of ideas: that all men are created equal, that they have been given by God certain rights that can be taken from them by no man, and that those rights combine to create a thing called freedom. — Peggy Noonan

Inevitabilities Quotes By Ken Follett

Most of my stories have some basis in fact. — Ken Follett

Inevitabilities Quotes By Helen DeWitt

Well, there's good fiction. There are wonderful books, and yes, it's good to read them. Maybe if you've read a lot of fiction, you reach this stage of satiation, and you start thinking well, what's the point, but then you talk to people who've read barely any, and you realize that things you take for granted if you've read a lot of fiction - unreliable narrators, how language frames your perception of people - things that seem obvious to the point of banality, except they're not to people who aren't in the habit of reading fiction. — Helen DeWitt

Inevitabilities Quotes By Paul Johnson

There are no inevitabilities in history — Paul Johnson

Inevitabilities Quotes By Michael Caine

I've been on movies where I literally couldn't hear what the other actor was saying. It's very awkward. — Michael Caine

Inevitabilities Quotes By John Drinkwater

Great men are rare, poets are rarer, but the great man who is a poet, transfiguring his greatness, is the rarest of all events. — John Drinkwater

Inevitabilities Quotes By Patrick Ness

Here is the boy, drowning. — Patrick Ness

Inevitabilities Quotes By Jacques Ellul

If man
if each one of us
abdicates his responsibilities with regard to values; if each one of us limits himself to leading a trivial existence in a technological civilization, with greater adaptation and increasing success as his sole objectives; if we do not even consider the possibility of making a stand against these determinants, then everything will happen as I have described it, and the determinates will be transformed into inevitabilities. — Jacques Ellul

Inevitabilities Quotes By Ammon Shea

Induratize (v.) To harden the heart. Among the inevitabilities of old age are that the heart is hardened twice; first figuratively, through experience and loss, and then literally, in the form of atherosclerosis. — Ammon Shea

Inevitabilities Quotes By Giuliana Rancic

I never thought my marriage could be stronger, or I could be closer to Bill. We prayed on our own, but now we prayed together and you'll never know how much that means until you do it. — Giuliana Rancic

Inevitabilities Quotes By Douglas Adams

Nobleness was one word for making a fuss about the trivial inevitabilities of life, but there were others. — Douglas Adams

Inevitabilities Quotes By Sarah Rees Brennan

(One of the reasons we broke up. What's fine in a best friend can be deeply wrong in a boyfriend.) — Sarah Rees Brennan

Inevitabilities Quotes By Catherynne M Valente

Endings are lush and lascivious, Vince; they call to me. All spread out on satin inevitabilities, waiting, beckoning, promising impossibly, obscenely elegant solutions-if you've been a good lab and dressed the house just so, for its comfort, for its arousal. All the rest of the nonsense a story requires is must a long seduction of the ending. — Catherynne M Valente

Inevitabilities Quotes By Brad Stone

These are not fever dreams. They are near inevitabilities. It's an easy prediction to make - that Jeff Bezos will do what he has always done. He will attempt to move faster, work his employees harder, make bolder bets, and pursue both big inventions and small ones, all to achieve his grand vision for Amazon - that it be not just an everything store, but ultimately an everything company. — Brad Stone

Inevitabilities Quotes By David Bayles

Vision, Uncertainty, and Knowledge of Materials are inevitabilities that all artists must acknowledge and learn from: vision is always ahead of execution, knowledge of materials is your contact with reality, and uncertainty is a virtue. — David Bayles

Inevitabilities Quotes By David Mitchell

All revolutions are the sheerest fantasy until they happen; then they become historical inevitabilities. — David Mitchell

Inevitabilities Quotes By George Carlin

Everything beeps now. — George Carlin

Inevitabilities Quotes By Henry James

Not to give away the woman one loved, but to back her up in her mistakes
once they had gone a certain length
that was perhaps chief among the inevitabilities of the abjection of love. — Henry James

The wisest minds are those who refuse all the negative inevitabilities! — Mehmet Murat Ildan
