Quantum physics presents a new and exciting worldview that challenges old concepts, such as deterministic trajectories of motion and causal continuity. If initial conditions do not forever determine an object's motion, if instead, every time we observe, there is a new beginning, then the world is creative at the base level.
Amit Goswami
Image
If anybody would make me the greatest king that ever lived, with palaces, and gardens and fine dinners, and wine, and coaches, and beautiful clothes, and hundreds of servants, on condition that I would not read books, I would not be a king.
Thomas B. Macaulay
Image
In brief, we have no explicit family policy but instead have a haphazard patchwork of institutions and programs designed mostly under crisis conditions, whether the crisis is national in scope (such as a recession ) or personal (such as a break-up of a particular family).
Kenneth Keniston
Image
Hope, the best comfort of our imperfect condition.
Edward Gibbon
Image
All who see it say, Well, you have favorable conditions here. Everything grows for you. Everything grows for everybody. Everything dies for everybody, too.
Henry Mitchell
Image
The old age of women is bearable only on condition that they do not take up any room, do not make any noise, do not demand any service on condition that they render all the service that is expected of them, and actually have no existence except for the good of others.
Suzanne Curchod
Image
Scientific reality is the modern human condition, and you can see that in the symbolic nature of my work.
Thom Mayne
Image
I ask you all so earnestly to open girl's schools in every village and try to uplift them. If the Conditions of women are raised, then their children will, by their noble actions, glorify the name of the Country.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The foremost or indeed sole condition required in order to succeed in centralizing the supreme power in a democratic community is to love equality or to get men to believe you love it. Thus, the science of despotism, which was once so complex, has been simplified and reduced, as it were, to a single principle.
Alexis de Tocqueville
Image
Very few live by choice. Every man is placed in his present condition by causes which acted without his foresight, and with which he did not always willingly cooperate and therefore you will rarely meet one who does not think the lot of his neighbor better than his own.
Samuel Johnson
Image
Persons who insist to themselves that under one set of conditions only can they lead interesting and satisfying lives lay themselves open to bitter disappointments and frustrations.
Hortense Odlum
Image
Love wants everything without condition, love has no law.
Pierre de Ronsard
Image
Love is the admiration and cherishing of the amiable qualities of the beloved person, upon the condition of yourself being the object of their action.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Image
The female, not the male, determines all the conditions of the animal family. Where the female can derive no benefit from association with the male, no such association takes place.
Robert Briffault
Image
Regardless of communication between man and man, speech is a necessary condition for the thinking of the individual in solitary seclusion. In appearance, however, language develops only socially, and man understands himself only once he has tested the intelligibility of his words by trial upon others.
Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben
Image
Memory isn't a theme it's part of the human condition.
Hilary Mantel
Image
Democracy is a process, not a static condition. It is becoming, rather than being. It can be easily lost, but is never finally won.
William H. Hastie
Image
Only this much I knew - that under ideal conditions, true education could be imparted only by the parents, and that then there should be the minimum of outside help.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The condition of women affords in all countries the best criterion by which to judge the character of men.
Frances Wright
Image
When sin lets us alone we may let sin alone but as sin is never less quiet than when it seems to be most quiet, and its waters are for the most part deep when they are still, so ought our contrivances against it to be vigorous at all times and in all conditions, even where there is least suspicion.
John Owen
Image
Any labor which competes with slave labor must accept the economic conditions of slave labor.
Norbert Wiener
Image
All the vital mechanisms, varied as they are, have only one object, that of preserving constant the conditions of life in the internal environment.
Claude Bernard
Image
War was forced upon mankind in his original civil and social condition.
Elihu Root
Image
Life evolved under conditions of light and darkness, light and then darkness. And so plants and animals developed their own internal clocks so that they would be ready for these changes in light. These are chemical clocks, and they're found in every known being that has two or more cells and in some that only have one cell.
