High-consequence risks have a distinctive quality. The more calamitous the hazards they involve, the less we have any real experience of what we risk: for if things 'go wrong', it is already too late.
Anthony Giddens
Image
It is a common happening that those in power, as their tenure of office continues, find themselves less and less able to contemplate relinquishing it.
Anthony Eden
Image
Short stories are wonderful and extremely challenging, and the joy of them, because it only takes me three or four months to write, I can take more risks with them. It's just less of your life invested.

As you identify less and less with the “me”, you will be more at ease with everybody and with everything. Do you know why? Because you are no longer afraid of being hurt or not liked. You no longer desire to impress anyone. Can you imagine the relief when you don't have to impress anybody anymore? Oh, what a relief. Happiness at last!
Anthony de Mello
Image
My high school was a private school where you went to an Ivy League. That's just what was expected of you and nothing less. So I grew up never being okay with a 'B' because a 'B' was not good enough.

My French definitely improves the more I drink, as I worry less and less about absolutely perfect grammar. I do speak and understand the language, just not particularly well.
Anthony Bourdain
Image
PETA doesn't want stressed animals to be cruelly crowded into sheds, ankle-deep in their own crap, because they don't want any animals to die ever and basically think chickens should, in time, gain the right to vote. I don't want animals stressed or crowded or treated cruelly or inhumanely because that makes them probably less delicious.
Anthony Bourdain
Image
The older I get, and the more I travel in particular, the less I care about what exactly is in the dish than who's cooking it and why.
Anthony Bourdain
Image
The attainment of wholeness requires one to stake one's whole being. Nothing less will do there can be no easier conditions, no substitutes, no compromises.
Carl Jung
Image
The face of Truth is not less fair and beautiful for all the counterfeit visors which have been put upon her.
Anthony Ashley-Cooper, 7th Earl of Shaftesbury
Image
Have you ever heard of a woman bloody dictator or tyrant? I think not. If there were more women in power, I think we would have more harmony, more engagement and less suffering and less conflict.

You're just a crazy murderer who's confused himself with a god.... nothing more, nothing less.
Tsugumi Ohba

Who laughs less than feminists?
Tucker Carlson

Frankly, I'd rather make a little bit less money if it means living in a better world for books and publishing in the future.
Tucker Max
Image
The hardest lesson I've had to learn in my life is that my intelligence is inversely correlated to my humility. The more I thought I knew, the less I actually knew.
Tucker Max
Image
Sometimes we are less unhappy in being deceived by those we love, than in being undeceived by them.
Lord Byron
Image
The more the years go by, the less I know. But if you give explanations and understand everything, then nothing can happen. What helps me go forward is that I stay receptive, I feel that anything can happen.
Anouk Aimee

I think history has less of an impact on current times than the stories that we tell ourselves about that history [do].
