Copy Quote Text

Is there wisdom in innocence? I think there is, but there is a cult now of drab men and women, for whom the world, and even life itself, is a kind of commodity. These critics, having eaten, now study their excrement to see what they consumed. On this they base certain conclusions. Their ignorance is uncompromising. Let us rather stand before the unknown, in very humble, quiet observance and wait while it reveals itself.

Phillip Mann Author

I don't want to abandon one work for the other, and I don't think I need to sacrifice anything to put my all into either one of them.

Aaliyah Dancer

The one thing which you have to abandon unconditionally is your self.

Bede Griffiths Monk

It is only through us that God lives. When we abandon him, he dies.

David Eagleman Neuroscientist

You must stick to your conviction, but be ready to abandon your assumptions.

Denis Waitley Writer

This head has risen above its hair in a moment of abandon known only to men who have drawn their feet out of their boots to walk awhile in the corridors of the mind.

Djuna Barnes Writer

A cleric who loses his faith abandons his calling; a philosopher who loses his redefines his subject.

Ernest Gellner Philosopher

The fact is, every thinker, every philosopher, the moment he is forced to abandon his one-sided intellectual occupation by practical necessity, immediately returns to the general point of view of mankind.

Ernst Mach Physicist

Write with abandon and no constraints for first draft. Cut brutally and save in separate files on second draft. Add conflict; don't be afraid to make your characters suffer. Read what you love. Write what you love. Love.

Francesca Lia Block Writer

More and more political analysts and weak-kneed politicians are advising the historically pro-life Republican Party to abandon its pro-life stance for political gain. My first response is that if you cannot trust a party on the value of defending human life, how can you trust it on issues like marginal tax rates?

Gary Bauer Activist
