Robert McNamara A far greater factor than abolishing poverty is the deterrent effect of swift and certain consequences: swift arrest, prompt trial, certain penalty and - at some point - finality of judgment. Warren E. Burger A hallucination is a fact, not an error; what is erroneous is a judgment based upon it. Bertrand Russell A hasty judgment is a first step to recantation. Publilius Syrus A judgment about life has no meaning except the truth of the one who speaks last, and the mind is at ease only at the moment when everyone is shouting at once and no one can hear a thing. Georges Bataille A judgment pronounced in accordance with the facts can therefore assign to it an historical place only within that movement of reformation which was brought to a victorious issue by King Josiah. Julius Wellhausen A major advantage of age is learning to accept people without passing judgment. Liz Carpenter A man with a surplus can control circumstances, but a man without a surplus is controlled by them, and often has no opportunity to exercise judgment. Marshall Field A man's conscience and his judgment is the same thing; and as the judgment, so also the conscience, may be erroneous. Thomas Hobbes A mistake in judgment isn't fatal, but too much anxiety about judgment is. Pauline Kael A negative judgment gives you more satisfaction than praise, provided it smacks of jealousy. Jean Baudrillard A primary function of art and thought is to liberate the individual from the tyranny of his culture in the environmental sense and to permit him to stand beyond it in an autonomy of perception and judgment. Beverly Sills A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides in imaginative reflection and judgment, when the picture of one's life, or of human life, as it truly has been or is, satisfies the will, and is gladly accepted. George Santayana Abortion on demand has, in my judgment, contributed significantly to an environment in our country in which life has become very cheap. Robert Casey About the most originality that any writer can hope to achieve honestly is to steal with good judgment. Josh Billings AIDS is a judgment we have brought upon ourselves. Mary Whitehouse An actor is totally vulnerable. His total personality is exposed to critical judgment - his intellect, his bearing, his diction, his whole appearance. In short, his ego. Alec Guinness An art whose medium is language will always show a high degree of critical creativeness, for speech is itself a critique of life: it names, it characterizes, it passes judgment, in that it creates. Thomas Mann An attitude of philosophic doubt, of suspended judgment, is repugnant to the natural man. Belief is an independent joy to him. William Minto An element of exaggeration clings to the popular judgment: great vices are made greater, great virtues greater also; interesting incidents are made more interesting, softer legends more soft.
