You don't want to give kids an idea that they might not have thought of.
John Walters
You know what the Englishman's idea of compromise is? He says, Some people say there is a God. Some people say there is no God. The truth probably lies somewhere between these two statements.
William Butler Yeats
One's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Every idea is an incitement... Eloquence may set fire to reason.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
It is remarkable by how much a pinch of malice enhances the penetrating power of an idea or an opinion. Our ears, it seems, are wonderfully attuned to sneers and evil reports about our fellow men.
Eric Hoffer
The real Antichrist is he who turns the wine of an original idea into the water of mediocrity.
Eric Hoffer
It makes little difference how many university courses or degrees a person may own. If he cannot use words to move an idea from one point to another, his education is incomplete.
Norman Cousins
Now that I am sixty, I see why the idea of elder wisdom has passed from currency.
John Updike
I don't much believe in the idea of characters. I write with words, that is all. Whether those words are put in the mouth of this or that character does not matter to me.
Guillermo Cabrera Infante
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Erich Fromm
The difficulty for most of us in the modern world is that the old-fashioned idea of God has become incredible or implausible.
Alan Watts
Buddhism has in it no idea of there being a moral law laid down by somekind of cosmic lawgiver.
Alan Watts
The religious idea of God cannot do full duty for the metaphysical infinity.
Alan Watts
I was set free because my greatest fear had been realized, and I still had a daughter who I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became a solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.
J. K. Rowling
I've always wanted to improve on the idea of living well, In moderation, wine is good for you - mentally, physically, and spiritually.
Robert Mondavi
The origin of the absurd idea of immortal life is easy to discover; it is kept alive by hope and fear, by childish faith, and by cowardice.
Clarence Darrow
The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another.
Thomas Merton
It takes a big idea to attract the attention of consumers and get them to buy your product. Unless your advertising contains a big idea, it will pass like a ship in the night. I doubt if more than one campaign in a hundred contains a big idea.
David Ogilvy
When an idea reaches critical mass there is no stopping the shift its presence will induce.
Marianne Williamson
Any one reflecting upon the thought he has of the delight, which any present or absent thing is apt to produce in him, has the idea we call love.
John Locke
