I can honestly say that I was never affected by the question of the success of an undertaking. If I felt it was the right thing to do I was for it regardless of the possible outcome.

If a man loves the labour of his trade apart from any question of success or fame the gods have called him.

My greatest strength as a consultant is to be ignorant and ask a few questions.

Everybody sort of questioned why we get married on New Year's Day and of course the avid sports fans wouldn't come because they had to watch the Rose Bowl or whatever that is on that day.

I would venture to guess that if I was a construction worker... who requested a transfer to another department for the betterment of his family I would be commended for it. But because it's sports there's just so much passion added to it.

The families of many athletes - incensed at the sports leagues and hoping to make games safer overall - are increasingly making the brains of players who die prematurely and suspiciously available for study. Some athletes are even making the bequest themselves.

I don't know why people question the academic training of an athlete. Fifty percent of the doctors in this country graduated in the bottom half of their classes.

I think top scientists need to be compensated at a different scale in society. Somebody with experience will tell you that true scientists are not motivated by money - they are motivated by the quest itself. That is true. But I think an additional recognition will not hurt.

Once boys' and men's challenges are clear the question 'why now' quickly becomes 'why didn't we see this sooner?' The answer? Virtually every society that survived did so by socializing its sons to be disposable.

Society questions the police and their methods and the police say Do you want the criminals off the street or not?

Mainstream cinema raises questions only to immediately provide an answer to them so they can send the spectator home reassured. If we actually had those answers then society would appear very different from what it is.

If you want a free society teach your children what oppression tastes like. Tell them how many miracles it takes to get from here to there. Above all encourage them to ask questions. Teach them to think for themselves.

Justice must always question itself just as society can exist only by means of the work it does on itself and on its institutions.

How a society channels male aggression is one of the greatest questions as to whether that society will survive. That's why I am not against violence in the media I am against the glorification of immoral violence.

The question I asked Georges has now become a general one - You who thought you were superfluous who thought there was no place for you in society not only are you not superfluous you are needed and so those who were beggars become givers.

Up until now the biggest question in society about video games has been what to do about violent games. But it's almost like society in general considers video games to be something of a nuisance that they want to toss into the garbage can.

The fidelity question is difficult for me. Society has made us believe we're supposed to be monogamous when we're not killer whales or whatever the monogamous species is.

In every interview I have ever read or seen or taken part in the final question in our future-oriented society is always What next?

Do not waste your time on Social Questions. What is the matter with the poor is Poverty what is the matter with the rich is Uselessness.

I read Popular Mechanics Popular Science Reader's Digest... I read some responsible journalism and from that I form my own opinions. I also happen to be intelligent and I question everything.

Questions have arisen about the policing of science. Who is responsible for the policing? My answer is: all of us.

Unfortunately Climate Science has become Political Science. It is tragic that some perhaps well-meaning but politically motivated scientists who should know better have whipped up a global frenzy about a phenomena which is statistically questionable at best.

Science and literature give me answers. And they ask me questions I will never be able to answer.

Science goes from question to question big questions and little tentative answers. The questions as they age grow ever broader the answers are seen to be more limited.
