Religion is part of the human make-up. It's also part of our cultural and intellectual history. Religion was our first attempt at literature the texts our first attempt at cosmology making sense of where we are in the universe our first attempt at health care believing in faith healing our first attempt at philosophy.

My big philosophy is: Try and work with good people because the process is your life. That's going to be really really hard. I'm glad I learned the lesson 'Failure is OK.'

Socialism is a philosophy of failure the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

But human experience is usually paradoxical that means incongruous with the phrases of current talk or even current philosophy.

Experience has shown and a true philosophy will always show that a vast perhaps the larger portion of the truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.

Iran is not a make-believe country. It is a real country populated by some 75 million people - real people including I daresay a majority who are philosophically and by education inclined toward the modern secular world and particularly American values.

Versatility of education can be found in our best poetry but the depth of mankind should be found in the philosopher.

The human imagination... has great difficulty in living strictly within the confines of a materialist practice or philosophy. It dreams like a dog in its basket of hares in the open.

He was a dreamer a thinker a speculative philosopher... or as his wife would have it an idiot.

Language philosophy and science are interwoven into the design of words which are manipulated to create surprising illusions.

Actually I didn't make the claim that Ruby follows the principle of least surprise. Someone felt the design of Ruby follows that philosophy so they started saying that. I didn't bring that up actually.

Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.

The only thing Martha and I have in common is that we both used to model. Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.

Design is not for philosophy it's for life.

I will admit like Socrates and Aristotle and Plato and some other philosophers that there are instances where the death penalty would seem appropriate.

Look I don't want to wax philosophic but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs you've got to jump around a lot for life is the very opposite of death and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully or you're not alive.

Ordinary people seem not to realize that those who really apply themselves in the right way to philosophy are directly and of their own accord preparing themselves for dying and death.

My philosophy of dating is to just fart right away.

With honesty of purpose balance a respect for tradition courage and above all a philosophy of life any young person who embraces the historical profession will find it rich in rewards and durable in satisfaction.

Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it.

From cell phones to computers quality is improving and costs are shrinking as companies fight to offer the public the best product at the best price. But this philosophy is sadly missing from our health-care insurance system.

I just find the evangelical church too well restrictive. But the School of Practical Philosophy is nonconfrontational. We believe there are many forms of Scripture. What is true is true and will never change whether it's in the Bible or in Shakespeare. It's about oneness.

It's a philosophy of life. A practice. If you do this something will change what will change is that you will change your life will change and if you can change you you can perhaps change the world.

One of my favorite philosophical tenets is that people will agree with you only if they already agree with you. You do not change people's minds.
