Quote Left I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom. Quote Right
Quote Left If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart. Quote Right
Quote Left (i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens; only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
Quote Right
Quote Left The Media is an abstraction (because a newspaper is not concrete and only in an abstract sense can be considered an individual), which in association with the passionlessness and reflection of the times creates that abstract phantom, the public, which is the actual leveler. . . . More and more individuals will, because of their indolent bloodlessness, aspire to become nothing, in order to become the public, this abstract whole, which forms in this ridiculous manner: the public comes into existence because all its participants become third parties. This lazy mass, which understands nothing and does nothing, this public gallery seeks some distraction, and soon gives itself over to the idea that everything which someone does, or achieves, has been done to provide the public something to gossip about. . . . The public has a dog for its amusement. That dog is the Media. If there is someone better than the public, someone who distinguishes himself, the public sets the dog on him and all the amusement begins. This biting dog tears up his coat-tails, and takes all sort of vulgar liberties with his leg--until the public bores of it all and calls the dog off. That is how the public levels. Quote Right
Quote Left If when a businessman speaks of minority employment, or air pollution, or poverty, he speaks in the language of a certified public accountant analyzing a corporate balance sheet, who is to know that he understands the human problems behind the statistical ones? If the businessman would stop talking like a computer printout or a page from the corporate annual report, other people would stop thinking he had a cash register for a heart. It is as simple as that -- but that isn't simple. Quote Right
Quote Left A man thinks that by mouthing hard words he understands hard things. Quote Right
Quote Left We've arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces. Quote Right
Quote Left Nobody understands anyone 18, including those who are 18. Quote Right
Quote Left Great use they have, when in the hands Of one like me, who understands, Who understands the time and place, The person, manner, and the grace, Which fools neglect; so that we find, If all the requisites are join'd, From whence a perfect joke must spring, A joke's a very serious thing. Quote Right
Quote Left To give liberty to a slave before he understands its value is, perhaps, rather to impose a penalty than to bestow a blessing ... Quote Right
Quote Left (i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens;only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody,not even the rain, has such small hands
Quote Right
Quote Left She's got a very bright future. She's a very talented young lady who understands the game of basketball and the team concept. She understands her strengths and the strengths of the people around her. You want somebody like her out on the floor playing for you. Quote Right
Quote Left The guru, if he is gifted, reads the story as any bilingual person might. He does not translate-he understands. Quote Right
Quote Left I am a thing that thinks, that is to say, a thing that doubts, affrims, denies, understands a few things, is ignorant of many things, wills, refrains from willing, and also imagines and senses Quote Right
Quote Left It's all part of the game. A player gets hurt. Someone has to step up. The squad will encourage the other kids that will have to step in there. Sure it's a loss. We'd love to have him. But we just have to go without him, and the squad understands that. Quote Right

Quote Left Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees, and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than de... Quote Right
Quote Left (i do not know what it is about you that closes and opens;only something in me understands the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses) nobody,not even the rain, has such small hands Quote Right
Quote Left I can't believe in the God of my Fathers. If there is one Mind which understands all things, it will comprehend me in my unbelief. I don't know whose hand hung Hesperus in the sky, and fixed the Dog Star, and scattered the shining dust of Heaven, and fired the sun, and froze the darkness between the lonely worlds that spin in space. Quote Right
Quote Left Beware of the man who knows the answer before he understands the question. Quote Right
Quote Left The one who truly understands My transcendental birth and activities, is not born again after leaving this body and attains My abode. Quote Right
Quote Left Rick really understands what's going on around him and is able to get the ball to guys that can help us make plays. Erik, on the other hand, has a bit more mobility and ability to get the ball down the field better from an arm-strength standpoint. Quote Right
Quote Left The animal rights movement I belong to does not have the time or the inclination to criticize the work of others, it understands that working towards our abolitionist goals in incremental steps is the only way we will move ahead, and it has no use for labels - it is too busy taking action. The animal rights movement I belong to is united in support of our common goals rather than squabbling over attention or money, it has no room for ego or ivory tower activists with personal agendas - it understands the value of working together! Quote Right
Quote Left Drawing is a struggle between nature and the artist, in which the better the artist understands the intentions of nature, the more easily he w... Quote Right
Quote Left If one is master of one thing and understands one thing well, one has at the same time, insight into and understanding of many things. Quote Right
Quote Left Foreign diplomats in Rome disconsolately say, Italy is the opposite of Russia. In Moscow nothing is known, yet everything is clear. In Rome everything is public, there are no secrets, everybody talks, things are at times flamboyantly enacted, yet one understands nothing. Quote Right
Quote Left Every ceremony or rite has a value if it is performed without alteration. A ceremony is a book in which a great deal is written. Anyone who understands can read it. One rite often contains more than a hundred books. Quote Right
Quote Left I didn't beleive in God, until I saw God. It was everything, all of infinity. Hate, love, horror and splendor. It is the infinite structure, or pattern of interconnected conscious experiences that is YOUR mind, that creates, contains, appreciates, understands, realizes and experiences all things. You just forgot God on purpose in order to appreciate what it is like to be you, and be challenged. God is the facilitator of this dream. (or nightmare) And I still don't believe in God, or anything for that matter. Quote Right

Quote Left A hero is someone who understands the responsibility that comes with his freedom. – Bob Dylan Quote Right
Quote Left In a world where no one understands, it's good to finally find someone who can. That's where you'd go to do what you have never done before and say things you have told no one. This is how new words and new actions are born, but not in hospital, in a lovely telephone box. Quote Right

Quote Left Nobody really understands love. Certainly not the poets. Love defies understanding because it is never the same for any of us. It seems to be Universal. It seems to be Timeless. But, those are just illusions because, even though it's something we all experience, it's also something we all experience differently. Love is an individual experience, filtered by our own lives and expectations. No one truly understands it because it's invariably a very different thing for each of us. Quote Right

Quote Left True love is not blind. It sees and it accepts. True love is not deaf. It hears and it answers. True love is not numb. It feels and it responds. True love is not unaware. It encounters and it understands. True love is not without compassion. It shares and it cares. Quote Right
Quote Left The world knows everything. The world understands something. The world feels nothing. The earth is in trouble. Quote Right
