The psychic task which a person can and must set for himself is not to feel secure, but to be able to tolerate insecurity.
Erich Fromm
The qualities of an exceptional cook are akin to those of a successful tightrope walker: an abiding passion for the task, courage to go out on a limb and an impeccable sense of balance.
Bryan Miller
The question really is how do we get Embassy Officers into the minds of the American business community. That is a much more difficult task than understanding a statistical matrix.
Lawrence Eagleburger

Diane Douglas

Alfred North Whitehead
The task of a writer consists of being able to make something out of an idea.
Thomas Mann
The task of an American writer is not to describe the misgivings of a woman taken in adultery as she looks out of a window at the rain but to describe four hundred people under the lights reaching for a foul ball. This is ceremony.
John Cheever
The task of art today is to bring chaos into order.
Theodor Adorno
The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.
John Buchan
The task of organized religion is not to prove that God was in the 1st century, but that he is in the 20th.
S. H. Miller
The task of physiological psychology remains the same in the analysis of ideas that it was in the investigation of sensations: to act as mediator between the neighbouring sciences of physiology and psychology.
Wilhelm Wundt
The task of science is to stake out the limits of the knowable, and to center consciousness within them.
Rudolf Virchow
The task of the artist at any time is uncompromisingly simple to discover what has not yet been done, and to do it.
Craig Raine
The task of the educator lies in seeing that the child does not confound good with immobility and evil with activity.
