Problem Quotes
-
Involve people in the problem and work out the solution together.
Stephen Covey
-
Dawkins’s problem is that he doesn’t know the difference between probabilistic empirical theorizing and strict metaphysical demonstration, and thus misreads an attempt at the latter as if it were the former. That is not to say that Aquinas might not be mistaken at some point in the argument – though obviously I don’t think he is – but if you’re going to show that he is, you first need to understand what kind of argument he is giving, and thus what kind of mistake he’d be making if he’s made one at all.
Edward Feser
-
If your life has no problems, you're not really living it.
Ryan Higa
-
We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.
Richard Feynman
-
Your problems are not just your problems. Ultimately, they belong to the church body that God has placed you in.
Francis Chan
-
He thought that everyone should listen to her voice, because there was so much sadness and happiness in it, all at the same time. And he knew she could make the world be quiet, and he thought that maybe the world needed to be quiet. That was the problem with the world—it never stayed quiet long enough to listen.
Benjamin Alire Saenz
-
Ask yourself what you could do to make situations less difficult. Do it, even if you think you shouldn't have to.
Karin Ireland

Anytime we think the problem is 'out there,' that thought is the problem. We empower what's out there to control us. The change paradigm is 'outside-in' - what's out there has to change before we can change. The proactive approach is to change from the 'inside-out': to be different, and by being different, to effect positive change in what's out there - I can be more resourceful, I can be more diligent, I can be more creative, I can be more cooperative.
Stephen Covey
-
Putting the makeup on, not a problem. Taking the makeup off, every night.... it makes your face swell.
Mila Kunis
-
Share your helping problem. More often than I care to admit I have found that when I was supposed to be helping someone, I suddenly did not know what to do next. When this happens, the best thing to do is to say to the client, “At this point I am stuck—I don’t know what to do next to be helpful."
Edgar Schein
-
The biggest problem in my life is trying to be the kind of man that I want to be, the father that I want to be, and how to process the failure of my marriage.
Ethan Hawke
-
The big problem in the long process of dumbing down the schools is that you can reach a point of no return. How are parents who never received a decent education themselves to recognize that their children are not getting a decent education?
Thomas Sowell
-
If you get stuck, get away from your desk. Take a walk, take a bath, go to sleep, make a pie, draw, listen to music, meditate, exercise; whatever you do, don't just stick there scowling at the problem. But don't make telephone calls or go to a party; if you do, other people's words will pour in where your lost words should be.
Hilary Mantel
-
Our idea of a real problem is someone else's idea of an ultimate dream. Put the 'problem' in perspective
Anthony Robbins
-
The fatal problem with poetry: poems.
Ben Lerner
-
No problem is too small or too trivial if we can really do something about it.
Richard Feynman
