Clash Quotations
The history of philosophy is to a great extent that of a certain clash of human temperaments.
William James
When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.
Marc Chagall
The clash between Popper and Kuhn is not about a mere technical point in epistemology.
Imre Lakatos
Four personalities are bound to clash.
John Deacon
I don't think there's anything in the compromise that means that there's a clash of ethics.
Peter Singer
Freedom rings where opinions clash.
Adlai E. Stevenson
The great thing about The Clash of course is that they keep searching for answers beyond that.
Lester Bangs
I started going to Madame Louise's, the lesbian club where all the punk bands used to go - the Sex Pistols, the Clash. I remember seeing Billy Idol walk in there; he was gorgeous.
Boy George
Cricket makes no sense to me. I find it beautiful to watch and I like that they break for tea. That is very cool, but I don't understand. My friends from The Clash tried to explain it years and years ago, but I didn't understand what they were talking about.
Jim Jarmusch
Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash.
Louis Aragon
