“I want to think I deserve what I get. I don't want to consider how vastly I am overly rewarded. I don't want to consider the injustices around me. I don't want any encounters with the disenfranchised. I want to say it's not my fault. But it is, it's yours and mine, and ours. We'd better figure out ways to spread some equity around if we want to go on living in a society that is at least semi-functional. It's a fundamental responsibility, to ourselves.” IfsThinkingWayWantResponsibilityFiguresMinesGoes OnDeserveFundamentalsFaultsEnvironmentalInjusticeSpreadEncountersSustainabilityEquityDisenfranchised Author:William Kittredge

“When you take a child who's hollering like hell, sit him on your knee, and say "once upon a time", you stop him hollering. As long as you go on telling him a story, he will listen. Novelists who neglect this fundamental effect do so at their peril. They become what is known as the experimental novelist, and an experimental novel is not really a novel at all.” ChildrenLongStoriesKnownNovelHellEffectsGoes OnFundamentalsKneesNovelistsNeglectPerilOnce Upon A Time Author:William Golding
“The erosion of agency has consequences for our politics.

“Let the Democrates go on making its case for more government control over every aspect of our lives. More taxes to pay. More debt to carry. More rules to follow. More judges who just make it up as they go along. We Republicans, we are committed to a federal government that acts again as a servant accountable to the people, following the constitution, and venturing not one inch beyond the consent of the governed.

“Jealousy, you know, is usually not an affair of causes. It is much more-how shall I say?-fundamental than that. Based on the knowledge that one's love is not returned.

“We manage to swallow flesh only because we do not think of the cruel and sinful thing that we do. There are many crimes which are the creation of man himself, the wrongfulness of which is put down to their divergence from habit, custom, or tradition. But cruelty is not of these. It is a fundamental sin, and admits of no argument or nice distinctions. If only we do not allow our heart to grow callous, its protest against cruelty is always clearly heard; and yet we go on perpetrating cruelties easily, merrily, all of us - in fact, anyone who does not join in is dubbed a crank.” IfsThinkingHeartDoeFactsGrowsSinNiceHeardGoes OnArgumentFundamentalsFleshKarmaCrueltyManageDistinctionProtestVegetarianVeganVegetarianismCrankCallousVegetarian Diet Author:Rabindranath Tagore
“For me, it's a voyage of self-discovery. I'm able to go on a set and to explore situations, personalities, people and characters that are close to me, or maybe not.

So, acting is fundamental to who I am.” PeopleHumansDifferentSelfCharacterHelpingAbleHuman BeingsActingSituationGoes OnPersonalityDiscoveryFundamentalsSelf DiscoveryWho I AmHelp MeDifferent PeoplesVoyages Author:Robert Carlyle
“I don't think a comedian should even be concerned with being cool or sexy, as soon as you do, you aren't a comedian any more. Looks are still the most important thing for women when it comes to meeting a partner. And that's fair enough, but a sense of humour is really important too. For starters, it's a great indicator of whether you are going to get on. If the first time you go on a date you don't find each other funny, there's a fundamental problem.” IfsThinkingShouldFirstsLooksStillsImportantEnoughProblemHumourGoes OnFirst TimeConcernedFairsFundamentalsImportant ThingsMeetingsSexyPartnersComedianBeing CoolIndicatorsStarters Author:Ricky Gervais
