Gays have become colossal bores. Once interesting and iconoclastic, all they seem to crave nowadays is the State's pension and seal of approval. They ought to go back to the days of the Stonewall Riots, when the police's violations of privacy and private property were the object of their anger and activism.

If you're a baby about the media, as I was, you can't imagine what it's like when the great approval machine shines its beam on you, when every time you cross the street someone comes out of a manhole to talk about your haircut.

I'd rather live dangerously for Jesus than exist safely for people's approval.
Rick Warren

The mere existence of an additional child or children in the family could signify Less. Less time alone with parents. Less attention for hurts and disappointments. Less approval for accomplishments. . . . No wonder children struggle so fiercely to be first or best. No wonder they mobilize all their energy to have more or most. Or better still, all.
Adele Faber

But the most obvious fact about praise — whether of God or anything — strangely escaped me. I thought of it in terms of compliment, approval, or the giving of honor. I had never noticed that all enjoyment spontaneously overflows into praise unless (sometimes even if) shyness or the fear of boring others is deliberately brought in to check it.
C. S. Lewis

Don't allow the approval and attention of others to destroy you.
Wayne Dyer
Image
You want your parents to say, Hey, I'm proud of you. When you don't hear that, you learn to compensate. You say, Hell, I don't need their approval. If I get my music right, I'll have everyone else's approval. I didn't understand it then, but I now know that's what happened to me.
Quincy Jones

Whenever I do a deal I always have the right of approval.
Shaun White

Spare yourself from seeking love, approval, or appreciation-from anyone. And watch what happens in reality, just for fun.
Byron Katie
Image
Do what you do only for God's sake, start for God's sake, work for God's sake, and act within the sphere of God's good approval.
Said Nursi
Image
Next to the disapproval of our friends, the approval of our enemies is most to be dreaded.
Octave Feuillet
Image
My process for the parodies is that I get an idea for a song and then get approval from the artist and then go in and record it and probably try to get it out as soon as possible.
Al Yankovic

I've got to stop getting obsessed with human beings and fall in love with a chair. Chairs have everything human beings have to offer, and less, which is obviously what I need. Less emotional feedback, less warmth, less approval, less patience and less response. The less the merrier. Chairs it is. I must furnish my heart with feelings for furniture.

You have the approval of yourself. That's quite enough for we who know true inner peace! - Charmainism

You don't need anyone's approval and in fact, you probably won't get it, so don't even try. Build, release and iterate. Make a list of the features you want to create over the next six months and get going! For small companies, once a week for larger companies, maybe twice a month.

I have no methods. All I do is accept people as they are.

You make your work and you can't ask for approval when you're doing it. Otherwise, it's going to be untruthful in some way.
Michael Gira
Image
As the inevitable discussion proceeds in the months ahead, this memo should provide both perspective and a reality check. President Bush's approval numbers will again fall back to more realistic levels fairly quickly. All were quite successful on Election Day.

President Obama’s approval ratings are so low now, Kenyans are accusing him of being born in the United States.
Jay Leno
Image
She's leaving when the president has one of the highest approval ratings on record. From here, it can only go down. And when it does, you know who they're going to blame. They're gonna blame Andy Card!
Andrew Card
Image
I’ve never had anyone’s approval, so I’ve learned to live without it.
Pat Conroy
Image
A good teacher, after all, wields the authority of a parent with none of the psychological baggage. The best of them are semi-mysterious figures whose wisdom seems boundless and whose approval helps us discover who we are.
