Opinions Quotes
-
If something was bugging you, you talk about it. But that's the cool thing: we (My Chemical Romance) don't bug each other. We just have deep discussions about art and music like friends. And we disagree about stuff but the disagreements are so healthy and intelligently thought out. We're very respectful of each other's opinions, especially about music.
Gerard Way

If people insist that honor is dearer than life itself, what they really mean is that existence and well-being are as nothing compared with other people's opinions.

Arthur Schopenhauer

By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.
Oscar Wilde

Those who failed to oppose me, who readily agreed with me, accepted all my views, and yielded easily to my opinions, were those who did me the most injury, and were my worst enemies, because, by surrendering to me so easily, they encouraged me to go too far...
