Verily has man freewill to control his actions. That my Father-Mother has given to man as his inheritance. But the control of the ractions to those actions man has never had. This my Father-Mother holds inviolate. These cannot become man's except through modifying his actions until the reactions are their exact equal and opposite in equilibrium.
Walter Russell
Image
The reason they're called the opposite sex is because every time you think you have your wife fooled - it's just the opposite!
Walter Winchell
Image
And then also I think it's harder for women because comedy is so opposite of being ladylike.
Wanda Sykes
Image
Fear separates--makes us feel alone--disconnected--while love--love does just the opposite--it unites. {shadowland}
Alyson Noel
Image
I found that if I offered to cook for a girl, my odds improved radically over simply asking a girl out. Through my efforts to attract the opposite sex, I found that not only did cooking work, but that it was actually fun.
Alton Brown
Image
Don't be so fond of what you planned that somehow to change it seems like a violation of your own choice and wisdom. It's just the opposite.
Lee Carroll
Image
The president is the cuticle of the nail bed of America: one would think pushing back makes him stronger, yet it turns out the opposite is true.
Warren G. Harding
Image
I think it's interesting that the opposite of being active in yoga is not being passive. It's being receptive.
Cyndi Lee
Image
I would like to play an average guy. I would have loved to play opposite John Candy in a movie. That was my dream for a long time, and sadly, now I can never realize that. But I'd like to do comedy.
Warwick Davis

There's nothing wrong with anything. Wrong is a relative term, indicating the opposite of that which you call right. Yet, what is right? Can you be truly objective in these matters? Or are right and wrong simply descriptions overlaid on events and circumstances by you, out of your decision about them?
Neale Donald Walsch
Image
The kids kept walking, moving through the Henley's halls like a tide, but when Kat turned to leave, she walked in the opposite directions. She wasn't an ordinary kid, after all. Katarina Bishop followed no one.
Ally Carter
Image
The opposite of courage is not so much fear as it is conformity.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Free will is something that people struggle with so much, but it's very simple to me. Carl Jung said at the same moment you're a protagonist in your own life making choices, you also are the spear carrier, or the extra, in a much larger drama. You've got to live with these two opposite ideas at the same time.
Wayne Dyer
Image
There's a part of you that you can get a hold of, and there's a part of you that you can never get a hold of, and those are opposite things. Who are you? Which one are you? You are combinations of opposites.
Wayne Dyer
Image
At the very moment when someone is beginning to take philosophy seriously, the whole world believes the opposite.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The one thing we can't really train for is weightlessness, real weightlessness. It's a ton of fun. It's pure Newtonian physics. You push in one direction, you go in the opposite direction with an equal force.
Julie Payette
Image
The capacity for people to kid themselves is huge. Living on illusions or delusions, and the re-establishing of these illusions or delusions requires a big effort to keep them from being seen through. But a very old idea is at work behind our current state of affairs: enantiodromia, or the Greek notion of things turning into their opposite.
James Hillman
Image
I am for a close global association in trade and financial matters, rather than the opposite possibility of excessive nationalism, as manifested in the two world wars.
John Kenneth Galbraith
Image
I am no fun at all. In fact, I am anti-fun. Not as in anti-violence, but as in anti-matter. I am not so much against fun - although I suppose I kind of am - as I am the opposite of fun. I suck the fun out of a room. Or perhaps I'm just a different kind of fun the kind that leaves on bereft of hope the kind of fun that ends in tears.
David Rakoff
Image
Some have an idea that the reason we in this country discard things so readily is because we have so much. The facts are exactly opposite-the reason we have so much is simply because we discard things so readily. We replace the old in return for something that will serve us better.
Alfred P. Sloan
Image
It is a profoundly erroneous truism, repeated by all copy books and by eminent people when they are making speeches, that we should cultivate the habit of thinking of what we are doing. The precise opposite is the case. Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking about them.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
A fanatic is always the fellow that is on the opposite side.
Will Rogers
Image
You don't want to shock them and do something totally opposite, but you also want to play a different character.
Ray Romano
Image
Transformations don't scare me: it thrills me to become the polar opposite.
