“Physics is to be regarded not so much as the study of something a priori given, but rather as the development of methods of ordering and surveying human experience. In this respect our task must be to account for such experience in a manner independent of individual subjective judgement and therefore objective in the sense that it can be unambiguously communicated in ordinary human language.” HumansIndividualLanguageGivenStudyDevelopmentOrdinaryTasksAccountsIndependentMethodPhysicsObjectivesJudgementHuman ExperienceSubjectiveHuman Language Book:Collected Works Source: Collected Works
“This independent Negro movement is able to intervene with terrific force upon the general social and political life of the nation, despite the fact that it is waged under the banner of democratic rights ... [and] is able to exercise a powerful influence upon the revolutionary proletariat, that it has got a great contribution to make to the development of the proletariat in the United States, and that it is in itself a constituent part of the struggle for socialism.” StatesFactsAblePoliticalForceNationsSocialUnitedPowerfulUnited StatesStruggleRightsInfluenceMovementDevelopmentExerciseIndependentDemocraticSocialismDespiteRevolutionaryContributionTerrificBannerConstituentsProletariatPolitical LifeDemocratic Rights Author:C.

“The experience of a sense of guilt for wrong-doing is necessary for the development of self-control. The guilt feelings will laterserve as a warning signal which the child can produce himself when an impulse to repeat the naughty act comes over him. When the child can produce his on warning signals, independent of the actual presence of the adult, he is on the way to developing a conscience.” WayChildrenSelfFeelingsProduceDevelopmentConscienceAdultsIndependentGuiltDevelopingImpulseRepeatsWarningSelf ControlSignalsNaughtyGuilt Feelings Author:Selma Fraiberg
“I think mathematics is a vast territory. The outskirts of mathematics are the outskirts of mathematical civilization. There are certain subjects that people learn about and gather together. Then there is a sort of inevitable development in those fields. You get to the point where a certain theorem is bound to be proved, independent of any particular individual, because it is just in the path of development.” PeopleThinkingTogetherCertainIndividualPathSubjectsFieldsParticularDevelopmentCivilizationMathematicsIndependentBoundsMathematicalInevitableTerritoryTheorems Author:William Thurston
“In your system of reality you are learning what mental energy is, and how to use it. You do this by constantly transforming your thought and emotions into physical form. You are supposed to get a clear picture of your inner development by perceiving the exterior environment. What seems to be a perception, an objective concrete event independent from you, is instead the materialization of your own inner emotions, energy, and mental environment.” UseRealitySeemsFormEnergyEmotionClearEnvironmentEventsDevelopmentPerceptionIndependentObjectivesConcreteTransformingExteriorThoughts And Emotions Author:Seth
“It's a completely independent atelier and company. We develop the prototypes here. There's a pattern maker, a sample maker, a commercial team, a head of sales, an in-house production team. That's the price of independence. And in the studio I work closely with Sarah-Linh on the collection, and Nao takes care of development.” CareHouseCompanyTeamDevelopmentIndependentIndependencePatternsProductionsStudiosTake CareCollectionsMakersSamplePrototype Author:Christophe Lemaitre
“Education is character development, harmonious completion of human personality. But what the state accomplishes in this field is dull drill, extinction of natural feeling, narrowing of the spiritual field of vision, destruction of all the deeper elements of character in man. The state can train subjects...but it can never develop free men who take their affairs into their own hands; for independent thought is the greatest danger that it has to fear.” MenHumansStatesCharacterFeelingsHandsSpiritualNaturalVisionSubjectsDangerFieldsPersonalityDevelopmentElementsDestructionIndependentTrainAffairDeeperAccomplishDullExtinctionHarmoniousFree ManCompletionDrillsCharacter DevelopmentIndependent ThoughtHuman PersonalityNatural Feelings Author:Rudolf Rocker

“Why was the United States so afraid of an independent South Vietnam? Well, I think the reason again is pretty clear from the internal government documents. Precisely what they were afraid of was that the "takeover" of South Vietnam by nationalist forces would not be brutal. They feared it would be conciliatory and that there would be successful social and economic development - and that the whole region might work.” ThinkingWellsStatesReasonWholeGovernmentMightWould BeForceSocialUnitedUnited StatesSuccessfulClearEconomicDevelopmentIndependentSouthBeing SuccessfulInternalsRegionsVietnamBrutalDocumentsEconomic DevelopmentTakeovers Author:Noam Chomsky

“Internationalism is a community theory of society which is founded on economic, spiritual, and biological facts. It maintains that respect for a healthy development of human society and of world civilization requires that mankind be organized internationally. Nationalities should form the constitutive links in a great world alliance, and must be guaranteed an independent life in the realm of the spiritual and for locally delimited tasks, while economic and political objectives must be guided internationally in a spirit of peaceful cooperation for the promotion of mankind's common interests.” WorldShouldHumansFactsSpiritualFormPoliticalSpiritInterestCommunityCommonSocietyEconomicMankindTheoryDevelopmentCivilizationHealthyTasksIndependentObjectivesPeacefulRealmsOrganizedLinksCooperationPromotionNationalityAlliancesHuman SocietyCommon InterestsInternationalismIndependent Life Author:Christian Lous Lange
