If one sets a car on fire, that is a criminal offence. If one sets hundreds of cars on fire, that is political action.
Ulrike Meinhof
Image
Art is craft: all art is always and essentially a work of craft: but in the true work of art, before the craft and after it, is some essential durable core of being, which is what the craft works on, and shows, and sets free. The statue in the stone. How does the artist find that, see it, before it's visible? That is a real question.
Ursula K. Le Guin

There is still a lot of misinformation being spread about higher education funding arrangements under the new Act. The students page on my website sets out the main points in the Act.
Anne Campbell

The man who sets out to live the life worthwhile-to follow his vision and speak his heart-need not look for position, honors, prosperity.
Vance Havner
Image
I like sets that feel small. Sets that feel really big are difficult. When you're on a big set it feels like there's constant mis-communication.
Anna Kendrick
Image
When the sun sets beautifully, other beauties rise. Nature is a theatre when one great player leaves the scene, another great player immediately enters. The play always continues excellently.
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
I don't think about the past, I only think about the present because what I do today sets me up for the future.
Vernon Davis

What sets these - and all - racers apart from less daredevilish mortals is their complete lack of fear and their joy of doing something on the edge. They love to speed because it is dangerous.
Peter Golenbock

Love sets fire to your schedule, And then calls an end to time.
Ani DiFranco

Intuition is the wisdom formed by feeling and instinct - a gift of knowing without reasoning... Belief is ignited by hope and supported by facts and evidence - it builds alignment and creates confidence. Belief is what sets energy in motion and creates the success that breeds more success.
Angela Ahrendts
Image
A land may be said to be discovered the first time a European, presumably an Englishman, sets foot on it.
Vilhjalmur Stefansson
Image
A lot of actors on film sets... very often they're not paying attention to the physical world around them. I think through studying art, I've always had that awareness and that's something that I've wanted to bring in to go beyond acting... As a form of expression, they are intrinsically linked.
Andy Serkis

The sight of stars always sets me dreaming just as naively as those black dots on a map set me dreaming of towns and villages. Why should these points of light in the firmament, I wonder, be less accessible than the dark ones on the map of France? We take a train to go to Torascon or Roven and we take death to a star.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Do certain sets of circumstances lie ahead of us wherein we change the world radically by the choices we make?
Vine Deloria Jr.
Image
An author who sets about to depict events of the past that have run their course is suspected of wishing to avoid the problems of the present day, of being, in other words, a reactionary.
Lion Feuchtwanger
Image
The sad fact is that the same terrorist scenarios, if they occurred in five different States, there could be five different sets of responses to the American people. We need, at a minimum, a level of coordination on communicating threats to the public.
Vito Fossella
Image
I didn't have the patience for the research, or anything like that. I just like how it sets the imagination off. It's just an area that's very fertile for great words. Great metaphors, potentially.
Andrew Bird
Image
Soldiers may be wounded in battle and sent to a hospital. A hospital isn't a shelf. It's a place of repair. And a soldier in the spiritual army is never off his battlefield. He is only removed to another part of the battlefield when a wound interrupts what he was meant to do, and sets him doing something else.
Amy Carmichael

An author who sets his reader on sounding the depths of his own thoughts serves him best.
Amos Bronson Alcott
Image
Death is like the setting of the sun. The sun never sets life never ceases. ... we think the sun sets, and it never ceases shining we think our friends die, and they never cease living.
Amelia Barr
Image
DELEGATION, n. In American politics, an article of merchandise that comes in sets.
Ambrose Bierce
Image
The head of a record label sets up structures, but he also defines the sound of the label, which is to describe what is desirable, what fits and what is quality for that label and then to create an environment where that sound can thrive.
John Kao
Image
Conflict is the gadfly of thought. It stirs us to observation and memory. It instigates invention. It shocks us out of sheep-like passivity, and sets us at noting and contriving…conflict is a sine qua non of reflection and ingenuity.
John Dewey
Image
Your point of view sets you up well in advance for how you view the events as they unfold.
