I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me. I know some people are terrified of the bomb. But then some people are terrified to be seen carrying a modern screen magazine. Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most.
Bob Dylan
Image
Our father has an even more important function than modeling manhood for us. He is also the authority to let us relax the requirements of the masculine model: if our father accepts us, then that declares us masculine enough to join the company of men. We, in effect, have our diploma in masculinity and can go on to develop other skills.

Any country that accepts abortion is the poorest of the poor
Mother Teresa
Image
A man becomes a Buddha the moment he accepts all that life brings with gratitude.
Rajneesh
Image
Purely historical thought is therefore nihilistic: it wholeheartedly accepts the evil of history and in this way is opposed to rebellion.
Albert Camus
Image
Through some strange and powerful principle of mental chemistry which she has never divulged, nature wraps up in the impulse of strong desire, that something which recognizes no such word as impossible, and accepts no such reality as failure.
Napoleon Hill
Image
A leader or mentor gives credit to others when things go right, and accepts the blame when things go wrong.
Bill Courtney

It is often claimed that knowledge multiplies so rapidly that nobody can follow it. I believe this is incorrect. At least in science it is not true. The main purpose of science is simplicity and as we understand more things, everything is becoming simpler. This, of course, goes contrary to what everyone accepts.
Edward Teller
Image
If God accepts the sacrifice of my life, may my death be for the freedom of my people. A bishop will die, but the Church of God, which is the people, will never perish. I do not believe in death without resurrection. If they kill me, I will rise again in the people of El Salvador.
Oscar Romero
Image
The Great Change is when humankind accepts its role as part of the natural order of the universe instead of its role as a cancer
Dan Simmons
Image
If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox.
Barry Lopez
Image
Prayer is never an acceptable substitute for obedience. The sovereign Lord accepts no offering from His creatures that is not accompanied by obedience. To pray for revival while ignoring or actually flouting the plain precept laid down in the Scriptures is to waste a lot of words and get nothing for our trouble.

Now, if King Crimson accepts responsibility for innovating its own tradition, you can't accept responsibility for the audience. And there is an enormous tangible weight of expectation, which comes from an audience attending a King Crimson concert.
Robert Fripp
Image
You know the difference between a real science and a pseudoscience? A real science recognizes and accepts its own history without feeling attacked. When you tell a psychiatrist his mental institution came from a lazar house, he becomes infuriated.
Michel Foucault
Image
As the dog becomes thoroughbred in the laws of clan and caste obedient, fraternal and loyal so is the man who accepts the gentleman's code.
Gelett Burgess
Image
In a recording, your ear believes and accepts the trumpets as part of the ensemble, but you can't do that in a concert hall.
Geoff Zanelli
Image
No one ever accepts criticism so cheerfully. Neither the man who utters it nor the man who invites it really means it.
R.K. Narayan
Image
I doubt if one ever accepts a belief until one urgently needs it.
Christopher Isherwood
Image
The greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion, which is war against the child. The mother doesn't learn to love, but kills to solve her own problems. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want.
Mother Teresa
Image
How quickly one accepts the incredible if only one sees it enough.
Richard Matheson
Image
The redefined physician is human, knows she's human, accepts it ... and she works in a culture of medicine that acknowledges that human beings run the system.
Dr. Brian Goldman
Image
Only he who accepts clashes and conflicts in life, loves life.
Pandurang Shastri Athavale
Image
A public man has no right to let his actions be determined by particular interests. He does the same thing as a judge who accepts a bribe. Like a judge he must consider what is right, not what is advantageous to a party or class.
Lord Acton
Image
The art of not experiencing feelings. A child can experience her feelings only when there is somebody there who accepts her fully, understands her, and supports her. If that person is missing, if the child must risk losing the mother's love of her substitute in order to feel, then she will repress emotions.
