Conflict Quotes
You will not find in semantics any remedy for decayed teeth or illusions of grandeur or class conflict.
Alfred Tarski
There is superficial conflict but deep concord between science and theistic religion, but superficial concord and deep conflict between science and naturalism.
Alvin Plantinga
There may be a conflict between softminded religionists and toughminded scientists, but not between science and religion.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Many priests say that retirement is more identified with freedom from meetings, budgets, personnel conflicts, and "dealing with the Chancery." Even as I struggled not to take that last point too personally, I was reminded that I have heard the same sentiment from many of my bishop friends as well!
Wilton Daniel Gregory
The truth must essentially be regarded as in conflict with this world; the world has never been so good, and will never become so good that the majority will desire the truth.
Soren Kierkegaard
Not everyone can afford their own land. And we're finding that, as the timber lands get parceled up, it's putting more people pressure on the nearby public lands. That's going to cause more conflict.
Brad Moore
The only basis of peace is the cessation of the conflict of two wills: my will vs God’s.
Elisabeth Elliot
In this case, Jane and Maura don't always agree on how to go about solving something. They both are very different in their approach and, a lot of times, that can lead to potential conflict, and then a debate in figuring out who and what is the right way to do it.
Sasha Alexander
Incivility is a symptom, not the disease. We've always had partisan conflict in Congress, and we always will. Yet when I worked for a year (1970-71) on the staff of Sen. Ed Muskie of Maine, this was a different place, more collegial, more sensitive to data, more concerned about all of the American people. I think because the for-profit media prizes conflict above cooperation and sound bites above analysis, politicians have learned to adapt to those tendencies. Consequently, our public debates are dumbed down as our problems grow more complex.
Tom Allen
Inner conflict is really fun to play because there's a lot going on, and the choices - when you've got a character with internal conflict - the choices you make have broader ramifications because they have inner ramifications and ramifications in the world.
Silas Weir Mitchell
If the conflict is about the size of Israel, then long and difficult negotiations can eventually resolve the problem. But if the conflict is about the existence of Israel, then serious negotiation is impossible.
Bernard Lewis
We could still have continued the arms race, but the arms race was pointless, and it was another reason we decided to start perestroika. It was senseless to continue to accumulate weapons. We had enough weapons to destroy life on Earth 1,000 times, and therefore it was very clear to us that the arms race could spiral out of control. A conflict could have started, as both the Americans and the Soviets realized, not out of a wrong political decision but because of a failure in the command-and-control systems.
Mikhail Gorbachev
