Implications Quotes - Page 13

• Momentum is a fragile force. Its worst enemy: procrastination. Its best friend: a deadline (think Election Day). Implication no. 1 (and there is no no. 2): Get to work! NOW!

• A pesar de la locura de utilizar si te gustaría tomarte una cerveza con alguien como razón legítima para votar a favor o en contra, siempre he pensado que eso es indicativo de un problema masivo en política: Importa tanto tu personalidad como lo inteligente que seas o lo bueno que seas en tu trabajo. Es un problema enorme. Muchas personas que son muy inteligentes o muy buenas en su trabajo no son personas con las que me gustaría tomarme una cerveza, pero sí me gustaría que tomaran decisiones políticas importantes con enormes implicaciones para el futuro del planeta.

• You should not think that you can shape history only by your will. This is also why I'm against the concept of intervention when you don't know its ultimate implications.

• Love and sacrifice are not the same thing, but they are inseparable. To think of Christ and to think of the Cross is not the same thing, but the association is so close that the implication is immediate. Where love has been preached without sacrifice, it has not led to love but to license.

• No habrá paz en Europa si los Estados se reconstruyen sobre la base de la soberanía nacional, con sus implicaciones de política de prestigio y protección económica... Los países de Europa no son suficientemente fuertes individualmente para poder garantizar la prosperidad y el desarrollo social de sus pueblos. Por tanto, los Estados de Europa deben formar una federación o una entidad europea que los convierta en una unidad económica común.

  Jean Monnet

• Es importante distinguir la dificultad de describir y aprender una notación de la dificultad de dominar sus implicaciones. [...] De hecho, el propio carácter sugerente de una notación puede hacer que parezca más difícil de aprender debido a las numerosas propiedades que sugiere para su exploración.

• Accuracy is the basis of style. Words dress our thoughts and should fit; and should fit not only in their utterances, but in their implications, their sequences, and their silences, just as in architecture the empty spaces are as important as those that are filled.

• The only difference between the narrator of contemporary affairs and the ordinary historian is that moral judgments about the present provoke fiercer reactions and have more immediately practical implications than moral judgments about the past.

• If reading becomes a bore, mental death is on the way. Children taught to read by tedious mechanical means rapidly learn to skim over the dull text without bothering to delve into its implications -- which in time will make them prey to propaganda and to assertions based on scanty evidence, or none.

• La observación general de que una teoría política es, entre otras cosas, una intervención partidista, está bien tomada. Así que la cuestión de la implicación política real de una teoría no puede excluirse como, en principio, irrelevante.

• The full implications of feminism will evolve over time, as we organize, experiment, think, analyze, and revise our ideas and strategies in light of our experiences. No theory emerges in full detail overnight; the dominant theories of our day have expanded and changed over many decades. That it will take time should not discourage us. That we might fail to pursue our ideas - given the enormous need for them in society today - is unconscionable.

• They will do more whether we do what we're doing or whether we don't do what we're doing. And the idea that you could appease them [terrorists] by stopping doing what we're doing or some implication that by doing what we're doing we're inciting them to attack us is just utter nonsense. It's just - it's kind of like feeding an alligator, hoping it eats you last.

• A nation's budget is full of moral implications; it tells what a society cares about and what it does not care about; it tells what its values are.

• To me, a poem is almost like someone whispering to another person, or you hear the whispering in your head. I hope with my own poems that the reader feels a connection, soul to soul, that'll help us all feel a little less alone on the planet. And it does have the power to direct change. A writer can make the word 'dark' be something positive. You can relieve a word like 'hysterical' of its misogynistic implications. You can make the language your own. That's what poetry is about.

• I think it is a cornerstone of our electoral system that you raise electoral funds for elections but that doesn't mean that therefore the implication can be made that the recipients are incapable of transacting their interests and their duties towards people any differently.

• It is suggested that all written works, including this one, have dangerous implications to the vitality of an oral tradition and to the health of a civilization, particularly if they thwart the interest of a people in culture, and following Aristotle, the cathartic effects of culture. "It is written but I say unto you" is a powerful directive to Western civilization.

• What gives me concern in so much of the comment is the implication that the people of Hong Kong have to be given a reward, like children, for being good last year, and bribed, like children, into being good next year. I myself repudiate this paternalistic, indeed colonialist, attitude as a gross insult to our people.

• Why did the consensus of Christian churches not only accept these astonishing views but establish them as the only true form of Christian doctrine? . . . these religious debates - questions of the nature of God, or of Christ - simultaneously bear social and political implications that are crucial to the development of Christianity as an institutional religion. In simplest terms, ideas which bear implications contrary to that development come to be labeled as 'heresy'; ideas which implicitly support it become 'orthodox.'

• There seems to be an assumption that if you're offended by movie brutality, you are somehow playing into the hands of the people who want censorship. But this would deny those of us who don't believe in censorship the use of the only counter-balance: the freedom of the press to say that there's anything conceivably damaging in these films - the freedom to analyze their implications. How can people go on talking about the dazzling brilliance of movies and not notice that the directors are sucking up to the thugs in the audience?
