A fool is in himself the object of pity, until he is flattered.
Richard Steele
Image
The US remains an object of fascination for me, and the subject of much study, but while many of my friends etc. are American and I have no plans at present to move elsewhere, I consider myself a permanent outsider.
Luc Sante
Image
We might not object to the statement that Lear deserved to suffer for his folly, selfishness and tyranny but to assert that he deserved to suffer what he did suffer is to do violence not merely to language but to any healthy moral sense.
Andrew Coyle Bradley
Image
Art is an experience, not an object.
Robert Motherwell
Image
The foundation of all human knowledge, the beginning of human consciousness, must be that each and every one of us is an object of love. Before you know if you have red hair or brown, before you know if you are black or white, before you know of what religion you are a part, you have to know that you are loved
Michael Jackson

The obvious example would be Jesus. Jesus is an object of fascination for me. He's an interesting historical character because we don't know much about him. He seems to be a guy who was in touch with something deeper than most people around him were and someone who was very concerned with trying to communicate that.

Here we observe the basic obsessive fantasy of Žižek's position: do nothing, sit still, prefer not to, like Melville's Bartleby, and silently dream of a ruthless violence, a consolidation of state power into one man's hands, an act of brutal physical force of which you are the object or the subject or both at once.
Simon Critchley
Image
Except for the woman, nothing interests the eye of the American man more than the automobile, or seems so important to him as an object of esthetic appreciation.

Image

John Irving
Image
The education of the will is the object of our existence.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
The function of a briefing paper is to prevent the ambassador from saying something dreadfully indiscreet. I sometimes think its true object is to prevent the ambassador from saying anything at all.
Kingman Brewster, Jr.
Image
The determination to outwit one's situation means that one has no models, only object lessons.
James A. Baldwin
Image
When we speak, in gestures or signs, we fashion a real object in the world the gesture is seen, the words and the song are heard. The arts are simply a kind of writing, which, in one way or another, fixes words or gestures, and gives body to the invisible.
Emile Chartier
Image
H2O it's a complicated, three-dimensional, charged object. And one can pack these things in many different ways, a little like playing the child's game of jacks, where those complicated little objects can be thrown together in all different ways.
Ira Flatow
Image
I object to you using words like squander and pork. What is pork in one part of the country is an essential project in another part.
John Breaux
Image
Through life let your principal object be the discharge of duty.
Stonewall Jackson
Image
You come to the photograph as an aesthetic object with no context... Then you step in and read the text and then out again to revisit the image in a completely different way. I'm interested in that space between text and image. The piece becomes the negative space between the two.
Taryn Simon
Image
Piety is not an end, but a means: a means of attaining the highest culture by the purest tranquility of soul. Hence it may be observed that those who set up piety as an end and object are mostly hypocrites.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
Freemasonry is founded on the immutable laws of Truth and Justice and its grand object is to promote the happiness of the human race.
George Washington
Image
The principal agent is the object itself and not the instruction given by the teacher. It is the child who uses the objects it is the child who is active, and not the teacher.
Maria Montessori
Image
I feel as though I haven't seen an object until I actually start painting it.
Janet Fish
Image
The best way to do research is to make a radical assumption and then assume it's true. For me, I use the assumption that object oriented programming is the way to go.
Bill Joy
Image
To quarrel with the uncertainty that besets us in intellectual affairs would be about as reasonable as to object to live one's life with due thought for the morrow because no man can be sure he will alive an hour hence.
Thomas Huxley
Image
To model an object is to possess it.
Pablo Picasso
