True People Quotes

• Creo que es muy bueno que no te publiquen. Parece una locura, pero es verdad. La gente quiere que le publiquen muy pronto, pero en el momento en que eso ocurre, pierdes un poco de originalidad. Una vez que publicas, siempre estás haciendo cosas por encargo. Dejas de ser un tejedor y te conviertes en un sastre. Adaptas las cosas a la moda de los demás.

• Sencillamente, no es cierto que la guerra sea únicamente un medio para alcanzar un fin, ni que la gente luche necesariamente para conseguir tal o cual objetivo. De hecho, ocurre lo contrario: muy a menudo la gente se plantea un objetivo u otro precisamente para poder luchar.

• Women are so often segregated to their sexuality, and how they appear. In fact, there's a lot of talk, even now, I think in most jobs this is true... people will say, when a woman rises to power, they ask, 'who did she sleep with?' You know, it couldn't possibly be about her acumen, it couldn't possibly be about her intelligence. It's got to be about her body, because that's how women get ahead.

• John's baptism...was a radical act of individual commitment to belong to the true people of God, based on personal confession and repentance... This is one of the main reasons that I do not believe in baptizing infants, who cannot make this personal commitment or confession or repentance. John's baptism was an assault on the very assumptions that give rise to much infant baptism.

• You know, where I come from, an antique, to be called an antique, it has to be at least a hundred years old. That's a law: before you can call something an antique, it has to be a hundred years old. In L.A., something that's been around for a couple of weeks is an antique. It's true! People are like, Look at this old-fashioned iPod. Look at this! It's the size of a man's hand! Ha ha ha ha. Back then-back then, people thought Mel Gibson was just acting crazy. It was a very different time.

• Gente de todo el mundo está siguiendo nuestras elecciones. Y según una nueva encuesta internacional que acaba de salir, creo que salió hace unas horas, esto es cierto, la gente en Canadá quiere que Barack Obama sea el próximo presidente de Estados Unidos. Eso es lo que dicen. En Canadá, sí. Eso tiene sentido, porque Obama tiene el apoyo de los votantes anti-guerra de Canadá, así como el negro de Canadá. Está muy entusiasmado.

• Pero el carbono 13 [el carbono del maíz] no miente, y los investigadores que han comparado los isótopos de la carne o el pelo de los estadounidenses con los de los mismos tejidos de los mexicanos afirman que ahora somos nosotros, los del Norte, los verdaderos habitantes del maíz..... En comparación con nosotros, los mexicanos consumen hoy una dieta de carbono mucho más variada: los animales que comen siguen comiendo hierba (hasta hace poco, los mexicanos consideraban un sacrilegio alimentar al ganado con maíz); gran parte de sus proteínas proceden de las legumbres; y siguen endulzando sus bebidas con azúcar de caña. Así somos nosotros: maíz procesado, andando.

• People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

• In place of a world, there is a city, a point, in which the whole life of broad regions is collecting while the rest dries up. In place of a type-true people, born of and grown on the soil, there is a new sort of nomad, cohering unstably in fluid masses, the parasitical city dweller, traditionless, utterly matter-of-fact, religionless, clever, unfruitful, deeply contemptuous of the countryman and especially that highest form of countryman, the country gentleman.

• All religious leaders and spiritual teachers emphasize finding a place within us that is true. People who obsessively follow these leaders instead of their own purpose attach to the spiritual leader and become fanatical and controlling. That's why Jesus tried to tell his followers not to get attached to outward form.
