Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Catherynne M Valente

All money is imaginary," answered the Calcatrix simply. "Money is magic everyone agrees to pretend is not magic. Observe! You treat it like magic, wield it like magic, fear it like magic! Why should a body with more small circles of copper or silver or gold than anyone else have an easy life full of treats every day and sleeping in and other people bowing down? The little circles can't get up and fight a battle or make a supper so splendid you get full just by looking at it or build a house of a thousand gables. They can do those things because everyone agrees to give them power. If everyone agreed to stop giving power to pretty metals and started giving it to thumbnails or mushroom caps or roof shingles or first kisses or tears or hours or puffin feathers, those little circles would just lay there tarnishing in the rain and not making anyone bow their noses down to the ground or stick them up in the air. — Catherynne M Valente

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Ashly Lorenzana

Fame is not so impossible for people with charisma, passion and talent. Being famous just means you have fans, and even one or two is enough to make you someone special. Ask a music fan who the best guitarist of all time is, and while one group insists that it was Jimmi Hendrix, another group swears that it was Eddie Van Halen instead. There will never be a time when everyone on this planet agrees on something like that, but luckily that's not important. All that matters is that both sides remain loyal, which they will assuming you continue to be who you are and do your thing. This is all that you need to be immortalized. — Ashly Lorenzana

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Steve Pavlina

Think for yourself. Unplug yourself from follow-the-follower groupthink, and virtually ignore what everyone else in your industry is saying (except the ones everyone agrees is crazy). Do your own research, draw your own conclusions, set your own course, and stick to your guns. When you're just starting out, people will tell you you're wrong. After you've blown past them, they'll tell you you're crazy. A few years after that, they'll (privately) ask you to mentor them. — Steve Pavlina

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Margery Allingham

However carefully a judge is protected by the experience and the logic of the law, there must be times -not many, I know, or we should have no judges- when the same frightful question must be answered. Not faced, you see, but answered. Every now and again he must have to say to himself, in effect, Everyone agrees that this colour is black, and my reason tells me it is so, but on my soul, do I know? — Margery Allingham

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Emil Cioran

No one is responsible for what he is nor even for what he does. This is obvious and everyone more or less agrees that it is so. Then why celebrate or denigrate? Because to exist is to evaluate, to emit judgments, and because abstention, when it is not the effect of apathy or cowardice, requires an effort no one manages to make. — Emil Cioran

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By E.L. Doctorow

From my undergraduate days, I've always been interested in the major philosophical questions that don't seem to have an answer that everyone agrees on. — E.L. Doctorow

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Annie Dillard

Since everyone around you agrees ever since there were people on earth that land is value, or labor is value, or learning is value, or title, degree, necklaces, murex shells, the ownership of slaves. Everyone knows bees sting and ghosts haunt and giving your robes away humiliates your rivals. That the enemies are barbarians. That wise men swim through the rock of the earth; that houses breed filth, airstrips attract airplanes, tornadoes punish, ancestors watch, and you can buy a shorter stay in purgatory. The black rock is holy, or the scroll; or the pangolin is holy, the quetzal is holy, this tree, water, rock, stone, cow, cross, or mountain--and it's all true. The Red Sox. Or nothing at all is holy, as everyone intelligent knows. — Annie Dillard

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Franz Karl Achard

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Heidi Heilig

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Amy Poehler

I have been writing my whole life: stories and plays and sketches and scripts and poems and jokes. Most feel alive. And fluid. Breathing organisms made better by the people who come into contact with them. But this book has nearly killed me. Because, you see, a book? A book has a cover. They call it a jacket and that jacket keeps the inside warm so that the words stay permanent and everyone can read your genius thoughts over and over again for years to come. Once a book is published it can't be changed, which is a stressful proposition for this improviser who relies on her charm. I've been told that I am "better in the room" and "prettier in person." Both these things are not helpful when writing a book. I am looking forward to a lively book-on-tape session with the hope that Kathleen Turner agrees to play me when I talk about some of my darker periods. One can dream. — Amy Poehler

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Margaret Atwood

Another of those things that must be true because everyone else agrees they are, although they don't seem so to me. — Margaret Atwood

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Massad Ayoob

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Abba Eban

A consensus means that everyone agrees to say collectively what no one believes individually. — Abba Eban

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Franz Wright

Everyone agrees.
The dead singers have the best voices.
At four o'clock in the morning
the dead singers have the best voices. — Franz Wright

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Robert Genn

Don't assume there is only one way. Don't assume that mistakes are a bad thing. Don't think for one minute that everyone agrees with what 'good' is. — Robert Genn

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Arthur Laffer

I mean, everyone agrees with stress tests for banks. I mean that's clear. But banks should do that on their own. And they should worry about their own capital functioning. That's what they should do. It shouldn't be a government function. — Arthur Laffer

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By T.J. Klune

I want to court your son." "What does that mean?" she asked. "It means I want to provide for him to prove my worth," Joe said. "And then, once he agrees to be mine, I'll mount him and then bite him and everyone will see that we belong to each other." I — T.J. Klune

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Alyxandra Harvey

It's weird, isn't it?"
"What is?"
"Treaties and all that. It's like we woke up one morning and we weren't supposed to be enemies anymore. It'll take some getting used to."
"True," I said. "I think it's really cool though."
"Unfortunately, not everyone agrees."
I thought of my grandfather and what he would do if he could see me now. "I know. But it's worth protecting."
"Yes," he said, and something about the way he was looking at me made me think he was talking specifically about me. "It is. — Alyxandra Harvey

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Albert Einstein

An evening everyone agrees, is a lost evening. — Albert Einstein

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Jonathan Franzen

The conservatives won. They turned the Democrats into a center-right party. They got the entire country singing 'God Bless America,' stress on God, at every single major-league baseball game. They won on every fucking front, but they especially won culturally, and especially regarding babies. In 1970 it was cool to care about the planet's future and not have kids. Now the one thing everyone agrees on, right and left, is that it's beautiful to have a lot of babies. The more the better. Kate Winslet is pregnant, hooray hooray. Some dimwit in Iowa just had octuplets, hooray hooray. The conversation about the idiocy of SUV's stops dead the minute people say they're buying them to protect their precious babies. (221) — Jonathan Franzen

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Jack Gantos

Money is just a way of measuring work, but you don't need money if everyone agrees that trading one kind of work for another will do just as well. — Jack Gantos

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Melinda Gates

Everyone agrees that the failure of our high schools is tragic. It's bad business, and it's bad policy. But we act as if it can't be helped. It can be helped. We designed these high schools; we can redesign them. — Melinda Gates

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Hans Kung

Everyone agrees the celibacy rule is just a Church law dating from the 11th century, not a divine command. — Hans Kung

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Paulo Coelho

Break the glass, I thought to myself, because it is a symbolic gesture. Try to understand that within myself, things were breaking of much more importance than a glass, and I'm happy for that. Look to your own inner struggles and break this glass.
Our parents taught us to be careful with glasses and with our bodies. They taught us that the passions of childhood are impossible; we should not remove men from the priesthood, that people do not perform miracles and that no one goes on a journey without knowing where he wants to go.
Break this cup, please, I thought to myself, and release of all these damn misconceptions, the habit you have of only doing that which everyone agrees with. — Paulo Coelho

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Christine Quinn

I understand that not everyone agrees with my perspective on Ray Kelly. But what you gotta look at here is somebody like Bill de Blasio talking out of both sides of his mouth and trying to have it both ways on a really critical issue like stop-and-frisk. — Christine Quinn

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Natan Sharansky

People may believe that there can be a society where dissent is not permitted, but which is nonetheless not a fear society because everyone agrees with one another and therefore no one wants to dissent. — Natan Sharansky

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Luis Bunuel

In any society, the artist has a responsibility. His effectiveness is certainly limited and a painter or writer cannot change the world. But they can keep an essential margin of non-conformity alive. Thanks to them the powerful can never affirm that everyone agrees with their acts. That small difference is important. — Luis Bunuel

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Kevin Smith

It's taken me 15 years to step behind a camera and make something everyone agrees looks like a movie. — Kevin Smith

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By James Surowiecki

You can't be rich unless everyone else agrees that you're rich. — James Surowiecki

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Samuel E. Morison

Everyone agrees to that; but when we come to define truth, dissension starts. — Samuel E. Morison

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Diane Ackerman

Everyone admits that love is wonderful and necessary, yet no one agrees on just what it is. — Diane Ackerman

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Malcolm Gladwell

Basketball is an intricate, high-speed game filled with split-second, spontaneous decisions. But that spontaneity is possible only when everyone first engages in hours of highly repetitive and structured practice
perfecting their shooting, dribbling, and passing and running plays over and over again
and agrees to play a carefully defined role on the court ... spontaneity isn't random. — Malcolm Gladwell

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Voltaire

What is history? The lie that everyone agrees on ... — Voltaire

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Sophie Kinsella

The way I write is totally instinctive. I just write what I feel or what I find funny - and hope everyone else agrees. — Sophie Kinsella

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Ruth Reichl

Tommy and I put on a radio play to entertain everyone while they unpacked their cookies. It was about a girl who saves up money for a prom dress, but at the last minute she says, "It's only clothes," and buys war bonds instead. The play was a big success, and my whole school pledged to buy war bonds, which should have made me happy. But it gave me a queer feeling; it's easy to write propaganda when everyone agrees with you. Do you understand? I think I'd rather bake cookies; it feels more honest.
Your friend,
Lulu


Sammy looked down at me. "A girl after your own heart!" he said. "In my experience it is a rare female who can say, 'It's only clothes,' and when the war came, you discovered who you really were. Women changed. Children grew up overnight. I wonder what happened to this one. — Ruth Reichl

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Siegfried Sassoon

To him, as to me, the War was inevitable and justifiable. Courage remained a virtue. And that exploitation of courage, if I may be allowed to say a thing so obvious, was the essential tragedy of the War, which, as everyone now agrees, was a crime against humanity. — Siegfried Sassoon

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Brian Eno

The reason conservatives cohere and radicals fight: everyone agrees about fears, no one about visions. — Brian Eno

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By L. Todd Rose

Talent - really, everyone agrees, it's multidimensional, and often overlooked in standard assessments. That's not hard for people to accept. — L. Todd Rose

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Daniel Greenfield

The oppressed oppress the oppressors. And everyone including the oppressors agrees that this is only fair because the oppressors deserve to be oppressed. After all they are the oppressors. — Daniel Greenfield

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Patrick Carman

Life is better without the walls, everyone agrees. Still, sometimes I'm afraid of the outside world, and every so often in my private thoughts I wish the walls were still there to protect me. It feels like growing up, as if the safety of the childhood has been stripped away, and I've woken up on the edge of something dangerous. The walls are gone and I can do as I please. It's a freedom I'm not so sure I'm ready for. — Patrick Carman

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Anne Lamott

Everyone, from almost every tradition, agrees on five things. Rule 1: We are all family. Rule 2: You reap exactly what you sow, that is, you cannot grow tulips from zucchini seeds. Rule 3: Try to breathe every few minutes or so. Rule 4: It helps beyond words to plant bulbs in the dark of winter. Rule 5: It is immoral to hit first. [pp.313-314] — Anne Lamott

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Timothy Noah

Everyone agrees that animals should not be exposed to unnecessary pain. But neither should scientists be hamstrung by the requirement to use anesthesia in every animal experiment that might cause pain. — Timothy Noah

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Michael Moore

I like BuzzFeed, and I understand the pressure that online reporters are under. But I think everyone agrees that, despite all the awesome kitten gifs, they're still obligated to be skeptical of government officials and ask the right questions. — Michael Moore

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By George S. Patton

When everyone agrees, someone is not thinking. — George S. Patton

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Francois De La Rochefoucauld

Everyone agrees that a secret should be kept intact, but everyone does not agree as to the nature and importance of secrecy. Too often we consult ourselves as to what we should say, what we should leave unsaid. There are few permanent secrets, and the scruple against revealing them will not last forever. — Francois De La Rochefoucauld

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Heidi Heilig

And once everyone agrees something is one way, all the other ways it could have been disappear. — Heidi Heilig

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Timothy Keller

The primary means-of-reviva l that everyone agrees upon is extraordinary prayer. — Timothy Keller

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Daniel Richardson

One reason for this polarisation is that, as a group, people can come up with a bigger set of persuasive arguments in support of the biased options: because everyone favours leaving the job, everyone suggests reasons to do so. But they come up with slightly different reasons. One person may point out that your friend is unlikely to get promoted any more at the bank, another that a new job would mean he'd meet new people, another that he never has the chance to travel in his current job and so on. So by the end of the discussion, all the group's talked about is a lot of good reasons in favour of one option. As a result, the group agrees on a more extreme conclusion based on this surfeit of good reasons. — Daniel Richardson

Not Everyone Agrees Quotes By Dan Mangan

It doesn't matter if you're talking to a communist or a fascist if you say, do you want a good future for your kids? Well they're all going to say yes. Well do you think that money should be spent efficiently? Yes. Al of these things, everyone agrees on them but the way that we discuss them and the language that we use we hold different definitions for. — Dan Mangan
