Representation of the world, like the world itself, is the work of men; they describe it from their own point of view, which they confuse with the absolute truth.
Simone de Beauvoir

The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking.
John Kenneth Galbraith

I think my view is that whenever you project into the future you're never likely to be accurate in the details, or the paraphernalia and style.
Stephen Fry

But I also hold the very strong view that republicans need to lead by example.
Gerry Adams

My own view is that taping of conversations for historical purposes was a bad decision on the part of all the presidents. I don't think Kennedy should have done it. I don't think Johnson should have done it, and I don't think we should have done it.
Richard M. Nixon

I reject the cynical view that politics is a dirty business.
Richard M. Nixon

The attitude that nature is chaotic and that the artist puts order into it is a very absurd point of view, I think. All that we can hope for is to put some order into ourselves.
Willem de Kooning

We've taken the view that if the rest of the world would democratize and create market economies, that would spread the benefits of prosperity around the world, and that it would enhance our own prosperity, and our own stability and security, as well.
Jeffrey Sachs

The basic idea was that if a country would put its economy as an integrated piece of the world system, that it would benefit from that with economic growth. I concur with that basic view.
Jeffrey Sachs

We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence; like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away.
Zhuangzi

My view is that at a younger age your optimism is more and you have more imagination etc. You have less bias.
Abdul Kalam

In the early days I had a very black-and-white view of everything.
Cat Stevens

A point of view can be a dangerous luxury when substituted for insight and understanding.
Marshall McLuhan

Perhaps the time has come to cease calling it the "environmentalist" view, as though it were a lobbying effort outside the mainstream of human activity, and to start calling it the real-world view.
E. O. Wilson

In my view you cannot claim to have seen something until you have photographed it.
Emile Zola

As I get older, I get smaller. I see other parts of the world I didn't see before. Other points of view. I see outside myself more.
Neil Young

Freud's view is that all love is sexual in its origin or its basis. Even those loves which do not appear to be sexual or erotic have a sexual root or core. They are all sublimations of the sexual instinct.
Mortimer Adler

We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.
Mao Tse-Tung

Of course, Einstein was a very great scientist indeed, and I have enormous respect for him, and great admiration for the discoveries he made. But he was very committed to a view of the objectivity of the physical world.
John Polkinghorne

A woman's dress should be like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view.
Sophia Loren
