“Often men believe women are the same, and once they figure what works for one woman they apply that same method to all the other women they are intimate with, and that's one of the major problems.” MenBelieveProblemFiguresMajorsMethodIntimateOne WomanMajor Problems Author:Gail Saltz
“Inanimate objects can be classified scientifically into three major categories: those that don't work, those that break down and those that get lost. The goal of all inanimate objects is to resist man and ultimately to defeat him, and the three major classifications are based on the method each object uses to achieve its purpose. As a general rule, any object capable of breaking down at the moment when it is most needed will do so.” MenMomentsUsePurposeThreeLostGoalBreakAchieveObjectsNeededMajorsCapableDown AndMethodDefeatCategoriesBreaking DownClassificationInanimate Objects Author:Russell Baker
“A major danger in using highly abstractive methods in political philosophy is that one will succeed merely in generalizing one's own local prejudices and repackaging them as demands of reason. The study of history can help to counteract this natural human bias.” HumansReasonPhilosophyHelpingPoliticalNaturalStudyDangerSucceedDemandMajorsPrejudiceMethodLocalsBiasPolitical Philosophy Author:Raymond Geuss
“Outside observers often assume that the more complicted a piece of mathematics is, the more mathematicians admire it. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mathematicians admire elegance and simplicity above all else, and the ultimate goal in solving a problem is to find the method that does the job in the most efficient manner. Though the major accolades are given to the individual who solves a particular problem first, credit (and gratitude) always goes to those who subsequently find a simpler solution.” FirstsDoeProblemJobsIndividualGivenGoalPiecesParticularGratitudeMajorsSolutionsUltimateMathematicsMethodAssumingSimplicityCreditSolveAdmireEfficientMathematicianObserversEleganceUltimate GoalAccolades Author:Keith Devlin
“Focusing-Oriented Art Therapy is a major contribution to art therapy literature and practice. Laury Rappaport introduces a contemplative method and philosophy grounded in the body's felt-sense of experience and its innate and largely unrecognized wisdom. This intellectually provocative, yet thoroughly practical text, establishes Rappaport as an emergent leader in the art therapy world and author of a book that every student and art therapist must read in order to appreciate the depth and breadth of our discipline.” WorldArtBookPhilosophyBodyOrderLiteratureFeltLeaderPracticeStudentsDisciplineMajorsAppreciateMethodDepthPracticalsTherapyContributionIntroducingGroundedInnateTherapistsProvocativeBreadthContemplativeArt Therapy Author:Shaun McNiff
“I spent the first forty years of my life making major interventions into other people's lives, and I have an idea of the limitations of that method. I see a major event as rather like major surgery.

“A popular feel for scientific endeavors should, if possible, be restored given the needs of the twenty-first century. This does not mean that every literature major should take a watered-down physics course or that a corporate lawyer should stay abreast of quantum mechanics. Rather, it means that an appreciation for the methods of science is a useful asset for a responsible citizenry. What science teaches us, very significantly, is the correlation between factual evidence and general theories, something well illustrated in Einstein's life.” IfsNeedsFeelsShouldFirstsWellsMeanDoeCoursesLiteratureGivenTeachCenturyTheoryMajorsEvidenceTwentiesResponsibleMethodAppreciationLawyerPhysicsCorporateEndeavorAssetsQuantumMechanicQuantum MechanicsFactualCorrelationCitizenry Book:Einstein: His Life and Universe Source: Einstein: His Life and Universe
“The Great Society went wrong for three major reasons. First, the self-organization the Johnson administration promoted turned out to be not the pooling of family and community resources into shops and businesses, but political pressure for government handouts. Second, the Great Society failed to anticipate the perverse side-effects of handing money out to people who have done nothing to earn it. Third, while the Great Society was showering money on the poor, the Supreme Court was with childlike glee smashing to bits traditional methods of maintaining law and order.” PeopleFirstsSelfReasonDoneGovernmentLawPoliticalOrderThreeBitsSidesCommunityPoorEffectsMajorsResourcesOrganizationThirdsPressureMethodCourtSupremeTraditionalAdministrationShopsSupreme CourtMaintainingJohnsonAnticipateChildlikeLaw And OrderGleeSide EffectsSmashingHandoutsGreat Society Author:David Frum
