Wired Quotes - BrainyQuote

A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don't function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick. Brene Brown

Love, Loved, People, Sick, Hurt, Deep

You're imperfect, and you're wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging. Brene Brown

Me, Brain, Problem, You, Someone, Person

Science, Brain, Thinking, Think, You

The killer app that got the world ready for appliances was the light bulb. So the light bulb is what wired the world. And they weren't thinking about appliances when they wired the world. They were really thinking about - they weren't putting electricity into the home. They were putting lighting into the home. Jeff Bezos

Light, Home, Thinking, World, Ready, Got

We seem wired to grieve with greenery. Allowing the dead to dissolve into the earth, to become part of the cycle of the seasons, has, for millennia, held the promise of cheating mortality. Simon Schama

Cheating, Dead, Promise, Earth, Seasons

I started my career as a liberal arts major from Berkeley, wrote about enterprise IT for a few years, then followed my passion for the digital narrative into graduate school as well (also at Berkeley, the Oxford of the West or, perhaps, the Harvard - sorry Stanford!). My first project out of grad school was 'Wired' magazine. John Battelle

Passion, School, Sorry, Digital, Career

There was a 'Wired' cover that had a big Apple logo with a crown of barbed wire as thorns, and underneath it just said, 'Pray.' I remember this because of how upsetting it was. Basically saying either it's going to just go out of business or be bought. Jonathan Ive

Business, Saying, Crown, Remember, Apple

Smile, Men, Ignore, Lipstick, Warm, Your

Gay rights is just one of the social issues I'm interested in. I think that people might be less tense about it if we would all accept the fact that not everyone is wired the same way. Charlaine Harris

People, Think, Gay, Way, Accept, Rights

A vast percentage of the human race is literally not wired neurologically to get irony. Well more than half of humanity takes life at face value, which is to me terrifying. Douglas Coupland

Life, Face, Me, Value, Humanity, Race

Me, You, Basketball, Professional, Body

Time, Talent, People, Greatness, You

Copy, YouTube, Hard, Now, Up, Pick

I've never actually been exposed to the hardships that proper soldiers endure. I also think you need a particular constitution to be a soldier - built a certain way and wired a certain way. I don't know if I'd be too good with being told what to do all the time. I am a law-abider, but I've got a lot of questions and opinions, so maybe not. Tom Glynn-Carney

Good, Soldiers, Soldier, Time, I Am, You

You gotta follow the white guys. Truly. They've got this thing wired. Too often, we live within their games, so why would you not study what works?

Good, Live, You, Bad, White, Interesting

Eyes, Together, Pressure, Golf, Silent

Cool, Generation, Kind

I think, as most of us do, I put such high expectations on myself that this spills over onto other people. And not everyone is wired this way.

Myself, Cool, Hot, People, Think, Way
