“The Theatre of the Absurd has renounced arguing about the absurdity of the human condition; it merely presents it in being - that is, in terms of concrete stage images. This is the difference between the approach of the philosopher and that of the poet; the difference, to take an example from another sphere, between the idea of God in the works of Thomas Aquinas or Spinoza and the intuition of God in those of St. John of the Cross or Meister Eckhart - the difference between theory and experience.” HumansIdeasTermDifferencesConditionsStageExamplePoetTheoryApproachCrossesPhilosopherIntuitionTheatreArguingAbsurdSpheresHuman ConditionConcreteAbsurditySpinozaSt John Of The Cross Book:The Theatre of the Absurd Source: The Theatre of the Absurd
“I'm trying to do the right things, especially on the ice. Even when I talk to the media, I try to not be obnoxious or be rude. I try to approach you with respect. Same thing when I played, especially if you're the captain, you wanna try and set an example.” IfsTryingMediaExampleApproachIceRight ThingCaptainsRudeObnoxious Author:Nicklas Lidstrom
“Will [Smith] is not like preachy. He's more like lead by example. There's two ways to approach Will. You can follow or you can watch and learn, and I just kind of watched him and learned how he dealt with people, how he dealt with life and how he approaches his own work.” PeopleWayKindTwoWatchesExampleApproachTwo Ways Author:Michael Ealy

“Non-cooperative approaches, by contrast, almost always involve duplication of effort, since someone working independently must spend time and skills on problems that already have been encountered and overcome by someone else. A technical hitch, for example, is more likely to be solved quickly and imaginatively if scientists (including scientists from different countries) pool their talents rather than compete against one another.” IfsHas BeensDifferentCountryProblemEffortTalentExampleSkillsApproachScientistOvercomingIncludingPoolContrastEnd TimesSpend TimeCooperativesDifferent CountriesDuplication Author:Alfie Kohn
“I do think there is a completely different notion to glamour today. I think modern glamour is more effortless, easy, and real. Moreover, I think it's about constantly challenging classical ideas by bringing in unexpected and different elements; for example a long, elegant evening skirt paired with a simple t-shirt on the red carpet. I think this approach is the future.” ThinkingLongIdeasDifferentRealTodayEasyChallengesSimpleModernExampleElementsApproachRedNotionEveningShirtsUnexpectedElegantT ShirtCarpetGlamourSkirtsRed CarpetEffortless Author:Roksanda Ilincic
“If you think about how broadcast mini-series approach historical events, there is a hagiography. There has been a soft, very glossy idea about history.

“Sartre is one example of someone who does just this. Every text is, after all, a human document and whatever Kierkegaard thought about God was clearly a matter of human thought that can, in principle, be retrieved and interpreted by other human beings. A phenomenological approach to religion must, it seems to me, adopt the old adage: nothing human is alien to me.” HumansDoeMatterSeemsHuman BeingsPrinciplesExampleApproachAliensDocumentsAdagesHuman Thought Author:George Pattison
