I've participated in meetings where there were concerns by ethical experts. There is no clear solution. ~Luc Montagnier
#quotes #luc-montagnier #ethics

No one can advise or help you; no one. There is only one thing you should do. Go into yourself. Search for the reason that bids you write, find out wether it spreading out its root in the deepest places of your heart. Delve into yourself for a deep answer ~Rainer Maria Rilke

Socialism is a wonderful idea. It is only as a reality that it has been disastrous. Among people of every race, color, and creed, all around the world, socialism has led to hunger in countries that used to have surplus food to export. Nevertheless, for many of those who deal primarily in ideas, socialism remains an attractive idea; in fact, seductive. Its every failure is explained away as due to the inadequacies of particular leaders. ~Thomas Sowell
#quotes #thomas-sowell #socialism

A philosopher is, no doubt, entitled to examine even those distinctions that are to be found in the structure of all languages; in that case, such a distinction may be imputed to a vulgar error, which ought to be corrected in philosophy. ~Thomas Reid
#quotes #thomas-reid #philosophy #errors

We live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups. I ask, in my writing, "What is real?" Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power, that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing. ~Philip K. Dick

We live through books; we have adventures in them, we lead alternative lives through them. We expand our memories through them. And that sometimes art can offer us more intense experiences of the world than life itself can. ~Anthony Doerr
#quotes #anthony-doerr #art #books

What has commonly been called rebellion has more often been nothing but a manly and glorious struggle in opposition to the lawless power of rebellious kings and princes. ~Samuel Adams

I adore clothes, they're my weakest link! My mother was the same, and she taught me always to look polished. ~Anne Robinson
#quotes #anne-robinson #clothing #mother

I must go on living. And, though it may be childish of me, I can't go on in simple compliance. From now on I must struggle with the world. I thought that Mother might well be the last of those who can end their lives beautifully and sadly, struggling with no one, neither hating nor betraying anyone. In the world to come there will be no room for such people. The dying are beautiful, but to live, to survive; those things somehow seem hideous and contaminated with blood. ~Osamu Dazai

Music is the eye of the ear. ~Thomas Draxe

Caddy got the box and set it on the floor and opened it. It was full of stars. When I was still, they were still. When I moved, they glinted and sparkled. I hushed. ~William Faulkner
