“Surely when a man is painting a picture he ought not refuse to hear any man's opinion... Since men are able to form a true judgement as to the works of nature, how much more does it behoove us to admit that they are able to judge our faults.” MenDoeAbleFormOpinionPaintingJudgingListeningOughtFaultsRefuseJudgementPainting A Picture Author:Leonardo da Vinci
“[On how she goes about trying to live authentically] Well really listening to my point of view and if I am on a set, say, that doesn't really value a woman's point of view, regardless of how they feel, continuing to give my point of view and try to find a way to be heard and not diminishing myself because other people are diminishing me. Because that, I think, is the worst temptation that, you know, you judge yourself by how others are judging you, and to fall into that trap is to walk into the realm of self-annihilation.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsWayGivingFeelsTryingWellsSelfValuesFallWalksViewsHeardWorstJudgingListeningPoint Of ViewTemptationRealmsContinuingTrapsAnnihilationJudging You Author:Jennifer Beals
“When it comes to telephone calls, nobody is listening to your telephone calls. That's not what this program is about. ... What the intelligence community is doing is looking at phone numbers, and durations of calls; they are not looking at people's names and they're not looking at content. ... If the intelligence committee actually wants to listen to a phone call they have to go back to a federal judge, just like they would in a criminal investigation.” PeopleIfsWantNamesCommunityNumbersJudgingListeningProgramPhonesCriminalsInvestigationCommitteesTelephonesPhone CallsNsaDurationPhone NumbersIntelligence CommunityFederal JudgesCriminal Investigation Author:Barack Obama

“In all cultures, it is the task of a religion to close the field of contingency ...and to set up havens of the absolute where it is possible to be led from acting to listening, from having to being, from planning to hoping, from judging to forgiving from the finite into the infinite.

“I am very, very aware at all times. I'm watching myself, I'm listening to myself, I'm judging myself, critiquing myself all the time, and I will know when I do something and I will immediately say, "Can I do another one, because I didn't quite get that thing," or that I wanted to do something there and it didn't quite work.” KnowsWantedJudgingListeningAll TimeJudging Myself Author:Hugh Laurie

“When that much time goes by, you're really listening to your old music differently. At the time it's written, it was the beginning of our career and with every song we're thinking, 'This is what's creating us.' Now, nothing is creating us. We're well-created. We're there. It becomes just pure pleasure and you become sort of an archeologist of your own music. You don't judge it, because what's the point? It's a 30-year-old song. It just becomes fun.” ThinkingSongFunPleasureJudgingListeningTime Goes ByOld Song Author:Chris Cornell
“To get large groups of people to dance, there needs to be something accessible about the music. The beat can't be too esoteric, but unless we're talking about prog or etherealist composition, I think there's something simplistic about most music. What's completely insane to me is that people would consider music that's simple to be dumbed-down. Couldn't simplicity be a deliberate, smart choice? Those people aren't really listening; they're judging a song off of a beat, off of a pulse.” PeopleThinkingSongChoicesSimpleJudgingListeningSmartSimplicityInsaneComposition Author:Dan Deacon
