Ide Life Quotes

[H]iding how you really feel and trying to make everyone happy doesn't make you nice, it just makes you a liar.

Sometimes you run away by yourself purely so someone who cares will come to find you. Half the time nobody does. That's the tragedy of life.

Perempuan memang tidak bisa diajak berpikir jernih jika menyangkut perihal lelaki. Dalam situasi seperti ini, kepala mereka dipenuhi kabur merah muda bernama dopamine yang meracuni sel-sel kelabu mereka dengan berbagai ide romantis yang absurd.

Leggendo non cerchiamo idee nuove, ma pensieri già da noi pensati, che acquistano sulla pagina un suggello di conferma. Ci colpiscono degli altri le parole che risuonano in una zona già nostra – che già viviamo – e facendola vibrare ci permettono di cogliere nuovi spunti dentro di noi.

Dalam sebuah skenario infiltrasi ide jangan pernah peduli dengan latar belakang lawan biacara kalian. Konsep egaliter menemukan tempat sebenar-benarnya. Bahkan termasuk ketika kalian wawancara pekerjaan misalnya. Sekali kalian merasa sebagai "orang yang mencari pekerjaan" sementara mereka yang menyeleksi adalah "orang yang memegang leher masa depan kalian," tidak akan pernah ada dialog yang sejajar, pantas, dan mengesankan.

They had been brought up to think that the domestic virtues were self-evident and universal; they had been starved of the knowledge that most attracts the young mind: that the crown of life is the exercise of choice

È bello anche morire per le proprie idee... chi ha il coraggio di sostenere i propri valori muore una volta sola, chi ha paura muore ogni giorno.

The first and last schoolmaster of life is living and committing oneself unreservedly and dangerously to living; to men who know this an Aristotle and a Plato have much to say; but those who have imposed cautions on themselves and petrified themselves in a system of ideas, them the masters themselves will lead into error

Cesar is not a philosophical man. His life has been one long flight from reflection. At least he is clever enough not to expose the poverty of his general ideas; he never permits the conversation to move toward philosophical principles. Men of his type so dread all deliberation that they glory in the practice of the instantaneous decision. They think they are saving themselves from irresolution; in reality they are sparing themselves the contemplation of all the consequences of their acts. Moreover, in this way they can rejoice in the illusion of never having made a mistake; for act follows so swiftly on act that it is impossible to reconstruct the past and say that an alternative decision would have been better. They can pretend that every act was forced on them under emergency and that every decision was mothered by necessity

In its purity this life [in the home circle] is the highest, the most exalted that can be thought or dreamed of for the education of our race. It is unconditionally true: where love and the ability to love are found in the home circle there one can confidently predict that the education it affords almost never fails.

A customer came in, the only one in the last couple of hours. The man had the shakes and was looking around like he’d lost a child at the county fair. He was a regular, somewhere between forty and sixty, his face sagging like Auntie May’s basset hound, his eyes yellow and bloodshot from seeing too much of his own life.

Eigentlich ist jede Familie eine Sekte für sich, mit irgendeiner speziellen Idee oder Wahnvorstellung, um die alles kreist, oft naheliegende Dinge wie Status, Macht, Tradition, Prominenz, Vermögen, Schönheit, Talente der Kinder.

The type of the Inevitable is death. I remember well that in my youth I believed that I was certainly exempt from its operation. First when my daughter died, next when you were wounded, I knew that I was mortal; and now I regard those years as wasted, as unproductive, in which I was not aware that my death was certain, nay, momently possible. I can now appraise at a glance those who have not yet foreseen their death. I know them for the children they are. They think that by evading its contemplation they are enhancing the savor of life. The reverse is true: only those who have grasped their non-being are capable of praising the sunlight.

Most of all, however, these observances attack and undermine the very spirit of life within the minds of men. They afford to our Romans, from the street sweepers to the consuls, a vague sense of confidence where no confidence is and at the same time a pervasive fear, a fear which neither arouses to action nor calls forth ingenuity, but which paralyzes. They remove from men's shoulders the unremitting obligation to create, moment by moment, their own Rome. They come to us sanctioned by the usage of our ancestors and breathing the security of our childhood; they flatter passivity and console inadequacy

Can I make you happier with powder on my chest? Do you need a thousand movie shows? Sixteen million people to ride the bus with, hit the stop—I shoulda never let you go away from home—“ Rich lips brooded in my deaf ear. “The fog’ll fall all over you, Jacky, you’ll wait in fields—You’ll let me die—you wont come save me—I wont even know where your grave is—remember what you were like, where your house, what your life—you’ll die without knowing what happened to my face—my love—my youth—You’ll burn yourself out like a moth jumping in a locomotive boiler looking for light—Jacky—and you’ll be dead—and lose yourself from yourself—and forget—and sink—and me too—and what is all this then?” “I dont know—“ “Then come back to our porch of the river the night time the trees and you love stars—I hear the bus on the corner—where you’re getting off—no more, boy, no more—I saw, had visions and idees of you handsome my husband walking across the top of the America with your lantern... Out of her eyes I saw smoldering I’d like to rip this damn dress off and never see it again!

What if our whole life—how we live and die—has already been decided for us? Would you want to know, if a roll of the dice or a deal of the cards could tell you the outcome? Can life be that thin, that disturbing? What if we are all just Caesar? Waiting on our lucky throw, refusing to see what waits for us in the ides of March.

Non volevo le loro voci nella mia mente, le loro idee su di me, le loro storie o i loro problemi personali. Perché avrebbero dovuto volere i miei?

Siamo scrittori e non ci chiediamo mai a vicenda da dove vengano le nostre idee: sappiamo di non saperlo.

Fictie wordt een model voor de werkelijkheid. Het oude idee van 'ars aemula natura' is achterhaald. 'Life imitates art', zoals Oscar Wilde zegt. Fictie is geen afspiegeling van ons dagelijks leven, het is andersom. (p.414)

No other person should ever get credit for being the best part of who you are. They may have helped shape you, lent you ides, shown you other possibilities, but you are you. Simple as that. Know your worth, girl. Because the world you're going to will make you feel small if you let it. Don't let it. Don't let them.

It began to seem that one would have to hold in the mind forever two ides which seemed to be in opposition. The first idea was acceptance, totally without rancor, of life as it is, and men as they are; in the light of this idea it goes without saying that injustice is a commonplace. But this did not mean that one could be complacent, for the second idea was of equal power: that one must never, in one's own life, accept these injustices as commonplace but must fight them with all one's strength. This fight begins, however, in the heart and it had now been laid to my charge to keep my heart free of hatred and despair. This intimation made my heart heavy, and now that my father was irrecoverable I wished that he had been beside me so that I could have searched his face for the answers which only the future would give me now.

A self-proclaimed “Jackson Democrat” wrote to warn Lincoln directly: “Beware the Ides of March…the Suthron people will not Stand your administration,” while a Virginian demanded he resign outright, darkly adding, “for your wife and children sake don’t take the Chair” or risk being “murdered.” Fearing a “servile rebellion,” yet another anonymous correspondent predicted that if Lincoln did not relinquish the presidency, the South would surely “take your life.

The calendar was divided into twelve columns and each day was marked with an F or an N, depending on whether it was fastus or nefastus—lucky or unlucky, lawful or unlawful. On the former days, business could be conducted, the law courts could sit, farmers could begin plowing or harvesting crops. Especially fortunate days were marked with a C (for comitialis), which meant that popular assemblies could meet. Some days were thought to be so unlucky that it was not even permissible to hold religious ceremonies: these included the days following the Kalends (first of a month), Nones (the ninth day before the Ides), the Ides (the thirteenth or fifteenth of the month) and the anniversaries of national disasters. If a day was nefastus, the gods frowned on human exertion (although one was allowed to continue a task already started). An added complication was that some days were partly lucky and partly unlucky. According to a stone-carved calendar discovered at Antium, 109 days were nefasti, 192 comitiales, and 11 were mixed.

L’homo sapiens, l’essere umano saggio, deve imparare dai suoi sbagli e dimostrarsi all’altezza del suo nome. Noi che viviamo oggi abbiamo il fondamentale compito di assicurarci che succeda. Non dobbiamo perdere la speranza. Abbiamo tutti gli strumenti che ci servono, i pensieri e le idee di miliardi di menti straordinarie e le incommensurabili energie della natura per sostenere la nostra impresa. E abbiamo un’altra cosa, un’abilità unica tra le creature viventi sul pianeta: quella di immaginare un futuro e impegnarci per realizzarlo.

Zašto odbijati točno definirati problem kada nam to omogućuje da ga riješimo? Zato što definirati problem znači priznati da postoji. Zato što definirati problem znači dopustiti sebi da saznate što zapravo želite, od primjerice, prijatelja ili partnera - a onda kada to ne dobijete, bit ćete toga bolno svjesni i boljet će vas, vrlo jasno i određeno. Ali iz toga ćete nešto naučiti i ubuduće ćete moći iskoristiti to što naučite. Alternativa toj jednokratnoj oštroj boli jest tupa neprekidna bol beznađa, neodređena osjećaja neuspjeha i osjećaja da vrijeme, dragocjeno vrijeme, nepovratno prolazi. Zašto odbijati točno definirati? Zato što, dok odbijate definirati uspjeh (a samim time sebi onemogućujete da uspijete), istodobno odbijate definirati neuspjeh tako da ga ne ćete primijetiti kada ga iskusite i ne će vas boljeti. Ali to ne ide tako! Ne možete se tako lako prevariti - osim ako već niste prešli dalek put na toj stazi! Umjesto toga, stalno ćete biti razočarani u vlastitomu Biću, a s time dolaze i samoprijezir i sve veća mržnja prema svijetu koji sve to omogućuje (ili rastvara).

One's thought patterns become different, he said, when forced into the confines of a rigid and unfamiliar tongue. Certain common ides become inexpressible; other, previously undreamt-of ones spring to life, finding miraculous new articulation. I can only say that an incendium is in its nature entirely different from the feu with which a Frenchman lights his cigarette, and both are very different from the stark, inhuman pur that the Greeks knew, the pur that roared from the towers of Ilion or leapt and screamed on that desolate, windy beach, from the funeral pyre of Patroklos.

Alles aan hem en aan zijn omgeving veranderde continu: zijn haar, zijn lichaam, waar hij die nacht zou slapen. Vaak had hij het idee dat hij een vloeistof was, iets wat steeds van de ene felgekleurde fles in de andere werd gegoten, waarbij er elke keer een klein beetje werd gemorst of in de fles achterbleef. Maar zijn vriendschap met Jude gaf hem het gevoel dat er iets wezenlijks en onveranderlijks aan hem was, dat hij ondanks al zijn verschillende gedaantes een vaste kern had, iets wat Jude kon zien, al kon hij dat zelf niet, aslof hij pas werkelijk bestond als Jude er getuige van was.

Burnout is very real. I see it in my practice on a daily basis. Men and women from every age and walk of life are so overwhelmed they can hardly function.” “Maybe they’re just working too hard.” “A common misconception. A person can suffer from burnout even if they’re a couch potato. You can burn out from being idle just like you can burn out from success. The common denominator is prolonged frustration.” “Spinning your wheels.” “Exactly. The feeling that no matter what you do you’re in the same place as you were yesterday. That there’s simply no reason to continue because you’d still be sunk in the same mire, running on the same treadmill, dancing the same tired dance. The housewife, the cop, the slacker, or the business tycoon can all suffer from burnout.” Cal

Eine zentrale ethische Idee ist die Forderung, möglichst viele unserer eigenen Thesen, Entscheidungen und Handlungen zu begründen und auch von unseren Mitmenschen Begründungen für deren Thesen, Entscheidungen und Handlungen einzufordern. Wir sollen in das Spiel des Gebens und Forderns von Gründen eintreten. Beispielsweise sollen wir nicht einfach je nach unseren unmittelbaren Präferenzen, Leidenschaften und Wünschen durch unser Leben trudeln, sondern uns Konzepte eines für uns guten Lebens machen, die wir vor uns selbst und vor anderen begründen können. Wenn wir uns fragen, welche Art von Person wir sein und welche Art von Leben wir führen wollen, dann muss die Antwort konsistent (= widerspruchsfrei) sein und argumentativ gut gestützt werden; denn sie sollte einer gründlichen Kritik standhalten können. Das ist der sokratische Standpunkt.

Të lindet njeriu Të lindet një njeri nga gjin' i dheut tonë të rim me lot të vakët, nga thalb' i shpirtit tonë që shkrihet në dëshirë të flakët për një gen të ri, - Të lindet një njeri! Pa hyll në ball - por që me fjalë të pushton, që të rrëmben qetsin e ban gjaku të të vlojë rrkajë, e ban synin ligshtin ta zhgjetojë, që nëpër shekuj ndërgjegjen na tradhton. Të dali një njeri! Të mkambi një Kohë të Re! Të krijojë një Epope! Ndër lahuta tona të këndohet Jeta e Re... - Të gjithë kombet po dehen n'epopea të veta, flakë e zjarrmit të tyne na i përzhiti ftyrat dhe nëpër to një nga një po shtohen rrudhat, e nën kambë e mbi krye tinzë po na ikjeta. (Liri! - Po, liri dhe gaforrja gëzon, porgaforre asht... Liri, ku plogsi ndërgjegje gjallon, jo, liri nuk asht!), Të lindet një njeri i madh si madhni dhe ndërgjegjet tona t'i ndezi në dashni për një ide të re, ideal bujar, për një agim të lum e të drejtë kombtar.

Indiferent că trăiesc mult sau puțin, sunt în viață acum, în acest moment. Ce vreau eu să știu e că există și alte lucruri la care merită să sperăm, nu doar durata vieții. Ce vreau eu să știu e că nu e necesar să evităm gândurile legate de suferință sau moarte, dar că nici nu e necesar să le acordăm prea mult timp și spațiu. Ce vreau eu e să am conștiința faptului că viața e trecătoare. Și apoi, în lumina (sau umbra) acestei informații, să știu cum să trăiesc. Cum să trăiesc acum. Iată ce am aflat despre cancer: îți arată ce înseamnă o boală incurabilă și apoi te azvârle înapoi în lume, în propria ta viață, cu toată plăcerea și dulceața ei, pe care le simți acum mai mult ca niciodată. Și știi că ți s-a dat ceva și ți s-a luat ceva. Ți s-a dat ceva și ți s-a luat ceva. [...] Era o idee simplă și totuși complexă, o idee care trebuie analizată pe îndelete. Ce ți s-a dat e o nouă perspectivă despre cum să-ți trăiești viața, iar ce ți s-a luat este iluzia unei vieți infinite și credința în particularitatea personală care ne scoate de sub incidența legii naturale.

Maybe stepping out of his isolated life wasn't such a good idea after all. People, it turned out, were a big pain in the ass.

Black the Knife, down without a fight A termite, a flea bite, Got stage fright, no right to life Boy’s an absentee, a detainee, no number on his caller ID Nobody home at the addressee His time is passed, miscast, outta gas, second class In foreclosure, never sober, I’m in clover, I’m taking over. “Makes

Isaiah knew houses like this existed but he’d never been inside one. The sheer quantity of overstuffed furniture, marble flooring, life-size paintings, exotic statuary, burnished woods, heavy drapery, and gilded mirrors made the house feel like a furniture store after everyone had gone home. “I

Čitao Watsona, ali ozbiljan posao ne ide. Sav se dan osjećao mizerabilno, i fizički i psihički. Glavno je ne misliti - misao danas boli više od išijasa.

Il problema della vita è che puoi procedere solo alla cieca, in un'unica direzione. La memoria ha delle idee tutte sue; carpisce elementi da gni quando e cerca di metterli insieme. Ti sorprende da tutte le angolazioni, con tutto quello che sei venuto a sapere in seguito, e ti comunica le novità.

Ides” was the name for the thirteenth or the fifteenth, depending on the month’s length.)

Celebrate the Ides of March but remember your own warnings less as Caesar learned, you can get killed in many ways

There are those who prevent you from sharing your darkest moments with your most intimate of demons, for they stand by you in such a way that those demons feel nothing but lonely in their own hell, rendering them useless and desolate.

Ich habe die komplexen Probleme einer Single-Existenz gegen die Probleme zweier Personen getauscht. Das ist doch scheiße. Ich wollte keine Problemerweiterung, ich wollte eine starke Schulter. Der Bau des Flughafens Berlin-Brandenburg war anfangs auch eine schöne Idee.

Isabell Ides was 101 years old when she died last June. A Makah Indian, a member of a whale-hunting people, she lived in the last house on the last road on the farthest northwest tip of the United States. Isabell was known far and wide because she loved and taught Makah culture and language. Hundreds of people learned to weave baskets under her hands. Several generations learned words in their language from her lips. Young mothers brought her their alder-smoked salmon. After chewing a bit, she could tell whether their wood was too dry. Archaeologists brought her newly excavated 3,000-year-old baskets, and she could identify what the baskets were, how they were made, and how they had been used. “It’s like losing a library,” an anthropologist said at her funeral. Isabell also taught Sunday School at the Assembly of God church on the reservation. She attributed her long life to her Christian faith.

Cicero took the view in April that “the Ides of March was a fine deed, but half done.

Un fatto è qualcosa di morto, in sé e per sé. Non ha coscienza, non ha volontà di potenza, nessuna motivazione, nessuna azione. Ci sono miliardi di fatti morti. Internet ne è un cimitero. Ma un’idea che avvince una persona è viva. Vuole esprimersi, vivere nel mondo. È per questo che gli psicologi dell’inconscio, Freud e Jung su tutti, hanno sottolineato che la psiche umana è un campo di battaglia per le idee. Un’idea ha uno scopo. Vuole qualcosa. Ipotizza una struttura di valore. Un’idea crede che ciò a cui tende sia migliore di quello che ha ora. Semplifica il mondo riducendolo a quelle cose che favoriscono o impediscono la sua realizzazione, e sminuisce tutto il resto a qualcosa di irrilevante. Un’idea individua la figura che si staglia sullo sfondo. Un’idea è una personalità, non un fatto.

- Soha életemben nem követtem el bűnt - mondtam határozottan - Mi másért lenne ide bezárva, minthogy bűnt követett el? Éppen az bizonyítja, hogy bűnös, hogy itt van.

Prior to Caesar’s measures to reorganize the calendar, Romans numbered their days sequentially from the first to the last. Within each month they learned to count backwards from three fixed points, with the Kalends (from which we get calendar) being the 1st, the Nones being the 5th or 7th, and the Ides being the 13th or 15th. This method dated back to the use of a lunar calendar. Caesar disposed of the lunar calendar and sequential numbering in order to make for a more accurate chronicling for the passage of time.

Sometimes you run away by yourself purely so someone who cares will come to find you. Half the time nobody does. That’s the tragedy of life.

As the years rolled by, Tommy didn’t talk about the debt anymore but it was implicit that Ken could never quit. He had the affair with Angela, and Sarita entered his life. Then he married a stewardess from Hong Kong, and Janine was born. The stewardess missed her family and went back home to Hong Kong, thank God, and now he was a very wealthy pimp under a death sentence, locked in his own bedroom, afraid for his daughter’s life but more afraid of climbing down a drainpipe.

Dan benih dari sebuah ide akan tertanam dengan kokoh di benak jika Anda percaya pada diri sendiri dan percaya pada potensi Anda.

It had something to do with being overpowered by an unlived life, how an intended life could somehow diminish the given life.

It seemed to her that when a person gave up the ghost of the intended life and she’s headed nowhere in particular, nowhere marked on any map, what was needed was an invitation to somewhere.

Kérdés: Mit ért az alatt, hogy ön az én kivetülésem? Válasz: A világ olyan, amilyennek látja. A külső és belső mindig egybevág, mivel egymás tükörképei. A külvilág tudatunk visszfénye. Akinek a bensőjében káosz és zűrzavar uralkodik, annak a külső élete is visszatükrözi ezt. Az embernek látnia is kell, amiben hisz, hisz olyan zavaros fejű gondolkodó, aki a külvilágba kitekintve önmagát látja viszont. Mindent megmagyaráz és értelmez. Amennyiben belső világa kaotikus, az is annak tetszik, amit lát és hall. Ön akkor is csak zavaros szavakat hallana, ha történetesen maga Jézus vagy Buddha állna ön előtt, mivel zavaros tudattal hallgatná a világ tanítóit. Mindössze azt hallaná meg, amit felvetése szerint mondanak, s amint fenyegetve érezné a sztoriját, menten vitába is szállna velük. Ami azt illeti, én is az ön kivetülése vagyok, hogyan másként kerülhetnék ide? Ez ügyben nincs szabad választásom. Az önmagamról gyártott kitaláció vagyok, nem valódi lényegem. Ön engem öregnek vagy fiatalnak, szépnek vagy csúnyának, becsületesnek vagy becstelennek, gondosnak vagy gondatlannak lát. Az ön számára létezem, hogy az ön megemésztetlen gondolatait, külön bejáratú mítoszát igazoljam. Megértem, hogy az ön szempontjából igaz, amit belőlem felfog. Jómagam is ilyen hiszékeny és becsapható voltam, de csupán negyvenhárom éven keresztül, egészen addig, amíg rá nem ébredtem a valóságra. "Ez egy fa. Ez egy asztal. Ez egy szék." Igaz ez? Abbahagyta már önmaga faggatását? Elcsendesedett-e belül annyira, hogy meghallja a tulajdon kérdésfelvetését? Ki mondta, hogy a fa tényleg fa? Ki ruházta fel a fa-lét tulajdonságaival? Honnan volt olyan biztos a dolgában? Az én egész életem és énképem egy gyermek bizalmán és semmit sem kérdező ártatlanságán alapult egy ideig. Ön is ilyen gyermek? A Munka elvégeztével félreteszi majd a játékait meg a tündérmeséit, és elkezdi olvasni az igazi tudás könyvét, amely önmagáról szól.
