“I really think my fun personality is my ace in the hole. I will never claim to be the most beautiful or most talented queen, because I can think of many queens who fit that description.

“One cannot ignore half of life for the purposes of science, and then claim that the results of science give a full and adequate picture of the meaning of life. All discussions of 'life' which begin with a description of man's place on a speck of matter in space, in an endless evolutionary scale, are bound to be half-measures, because they leave out most of the experiences which are important to use as human beings.” MenGivingHumansImportantMatterUsePurposeHuman BeingsSpaceResultsHalfClaimsBoundsScalesEndlessDiscussionMeaning Of LifeDescriptionAdequateBeing MeSpecksBeing MeanHalf Measures Author:Colin Wilson

“It is hubris, claim the critics of 'absolutism', to suppose that we could ever even approximate to a true description of how the world anyway is. It is bad faith or 'bullshit', respond 'absolutists', to suppose - as the rhetoric of postmodernism implies - that we could seriously live and act with the thought that truth and value are simply our own projections. An attractive feature of 'ineffabilism', as I see it, is that it evades these accusations.” WorldValuesClaimsCriticsFeaturesAttractiveDescriptionRhetoricBullshitProjectionAccusationPostmodernismHubrisAbsolutism Author:David E.

“The very nature of the quantum theory ... forces us to regard the space-time coordination and the claim of causality, the union of which characterizes the classical theories, as complementary but exclusive features of the description, symbolizing the idealization of observation and description, respectively.” ForceSpaceTheoryClaimsRegardUnionsObservationFeaturesDescriptionQuantumExclusiveQuantum MechanicsQuantum TheoryCausalityCoordinationComplementarySpace Time Author:Niels Bohr
“Again: there is nothing inherently superior about resistance. All our claims for the righteousness of resistance rest on the rightness of the claim that the resisters are acting in the name of justice. And the justice of the cause does not depend on, and is not enhanced by, the virtue of those who make the assertion. It depends first and last on the truth of a description of a state of affairs that is, truly, unjust and unnecessary.” FirstsDoeStatesLastsNamesCausesJusticeActingVirtueDependsClaimsAffairResistanceSuperiorsDescriptionRighteousnessUnnecessaryUnjustAssertionFirsts And Lasts Book:At the Same Time: Essays and Speeches Source: At the Same Time: Essays and Speeches
“A campaign, like a brand, is not just a number of bits put together - a claim here, a pack shot there, a reason why somewhere else. If we try to produce it by the atomistic approach, we will end up with a sort of Identikit brand. It will be a perfect description of the structure of the brand, as the Identikit can describe the contours of the face. But it won't be the same thing. The brand will never come to life.” IfsTryingEndsReasonTogetherFacesBitsPerfectNumbersBusinessProduceApproachShotsClaimsStructureCampaignsBrandsReason WhyDescriptionPacksSomewhere Else Author:Stephen King
