Iris Murdoch Indian religion has always felt that since the minds, the temperaments and the intellectual affinities of men are unlimited in their variety, a perfect liberty of thought and of worship must be allowed to the individual in his approach to the Infinite. Sri Aurobindo I'm not a natural leader. I'm too intellectual; I'm too abstract; I think too much. Newt Gingrich It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living. David Attenborough Science is an integral part of culture. It's not this foreign thing, done by an arcane priesthood. It's one of the glories of the human intellectual tradition. Stephen Jay Gould The fame that goes with wealth and beauty is fleeting and fragile; intellectual superiority is a possession glorious and eternal. Sallust I've been called many things, but never an intellectual. Tallulah Bankhead The sharing of joy, whether physical, emotional, psychic, or intellectual, forms a bridge between the sharers which can be the basis for understanding much of what is not shared between them, and lessens the threat of their difference. Audre Lorde There's always something suspect about an intellectual on the winning side. Vaclav Havel So basically, I think music at its best can be everything. It can be totally stupid and very intellectual and emotional at the same time. I don't think all those things shut each other out. Ville Valo Conversion for me was not a Damascus Road experience. I slowly moved into an intellectual acceptance of what my intuition had always known. Madeleine L'Engle Cynicism is intellectual treason. Norman Cousins Only when we realize that there is no eternal, unchanging truth or absolute truth can we arouse in ourselves a sense of intellectual responsibility. Hu Shih There is no surer mark of the absence of the highest moral and intellectual qualities than a cold reception of excellence. Philip James Bailey Only through the conscious action of the working masses in city and country can it be brought to life, only through the people's highest intellectual maturity and inexhaustible idealism can it be brought safely through all storms and find its way to port. Rosa Luxemburg I think one of the important evolutions is that we no longer feel compulsively the need to argue, or to justify things on a kind of rational level. We are much more willing to admit that certain things are completely instinctive and others are really intellectual. Rem Koolhaas When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out. Alanis Morissette An intellectual is going to have doubts, for example, about a fundamentalist religious doctrine that admits no doubt, about an imposed political system that allows no doubt, about a perfect aesthetic that has no room for doubt. Antonio Tabucchi Eco sees the intellectual as an organizer of culture, someone who can run a magazine or a museum. An administrator, in fact. I think this is a melancholy situation for an intellectual. Antonio Tabucchi What we call National-Socialism is the poisonous perversion of ideas which have a long history in German intellectual life. Thomas Mann |
