Reality Quotes
-
Withdraw allegiance from the old categories of the Negative (law, limit, castration, lack, lacuna), which the Western thought has so long held sacred as a form of power and an access to reality. Prefer what is positive and multiple, difference over uniformity, flows over unities, mobile arrangements over systems. Believe that what is productive is not sedentary but nomadic.
Michel Foucault

Jorge Garcia

I think that one of the things that we have to recognize is that the longer somebody doesn't have a job, the harder it is to get a new job. You know, the reality is that if you're out of job, and you're looking for a job, then the new employer's going to say, 'Well, why, you know, don't you have a job now? What's wrong with you?'
Kevin Hassett

There's a tremendous tendency not to make a statement, not to be committed in that ultimate sense. Photo-realism is the same thing as minimal abstraction. Both are unwilling to say anything about the nature of reality, about their own involvement with reality, the evolvement of forms, their expressive...their deepest involvement with human reality.
Leonard Baskin

When you have broken the reality into concepts you never can reconstruct it in its wholeness.
William James
-
The reality is simple: every country struggles with madmen and ideologues with guns, and every country-Canada, Norway, Britain-has had a gun massacre once, or twice. Then people act to stop them, and they do-as over the past few years has happened in Australia. Only in America are gun massacres of this kind routine, expectable, and certain to continue.
Adam Gopnik
-
