“We know the product is going to stink. We know that because we live in the world, and we know that everything stinks. We all believe, Hey, maybe this one wont stink. We are a hopeful species. Stupid but hopeful. But were happy in that moment between the commercial and the purchase. And I think spending your life trying to dupe innocent people out of hard-won earnings to buy useless, low-quality, misrepresented items and services is an excellent use of your energy.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWorldTryingBelieveHardMomentsUseEnergyQualityStupidProductsLowsSpeciesSpendingInnocentHeyUselessExcellentHopefulThat MomentEarningItemsStinkDupes Author:Jerry Seinfeld
“If we view our children as stupid, naughty, disturbed, or guilty of their misdeeds, they will learn to behold themselves as foolish, faulty, or shameful specimens of humanity. They will regard us as judges from whom they wish to hide, and they will interpret everything we say as further proof of their unworthiness. If we view them as innocent, or at least merely ignorant, they will gain understanding from their experiences, and they will continue to regard us as wise partners.” IfsChildrenHumanityWishUnderstandingViewsWiseStupidJudgingGainsRegardOur ChildrenProofPartnersFoolishIgnorantInnocentGuiltyDisturbedShamefulNaughtyMisdeeds Book:Whole child, whole parent Source: Whole child, whole parent

“I didn't see films when I was young. I was stupid and naïve. Maybe I wouldn't have made films if I had seen lots of others; maybe it would have stopped me. I started totally free and crazy and innocent. Now I've seen many films, and many beautiful films. And I try to keep a certain level of quality of my films. I don't do commercials, I don't do films pre-prepared by other people, I don't do star system. So I do my own little thing.” PeopleTryingBeautifulFilmQualityCrazyStupidInnocentLittle ThingsI Was Stupid Author:Agnes Varda
