Some things are better than sex, and some are worse, but there's nothing exactly like it.
W. C. Fields
Image
If we wish to ensure everyone’s peace and happiness we need to cultivate a healthy respect for the diversity of our peoples and cultures, founded on an understanding of this fundamental sameness of all human beings
Dalai Lama
Image
Solidarity does not assume that our struggles are the same struggles, or that our pain is the same pain, or that our hope is for the same future. Solidarity involves commitment, and work, as well as the recognition that even if we do not have the same feelings, or the same lives, or the same bodies, we do live on common ground.
Sara Ahmed
Image
When things don’t change, their sameness becomes an accretion. That is why all society puts on flesh. Succumbs to the cubicles and begins to fill them.
Tennessee Williams
Image
Sameness is what marketers want us to want.
Thomas M. Disch
Image
Saints and ordinary folks are the same from the start. Inquiring about a difference is like asking to borrow string when you've got a good strong rope. Every Dharma is known in the heart.
Hsu Yun
Image
Sameness is the mother of disgust, variety the cure.
Petrarch
Image
That which is to be most desired in America is oneness and not sameness. Sameness is the worst thing that could happen to the people of this country. To make all people the same would lower their quality, but oneness would raise it.
Stephen Samuel Wise
Image
But whatever you do, take neither yourselves nor your fellow-creatures too seriously. There is tragedy enough in our daily routine, but there is room too for a keen sense of the absurdities and incongruities of life, and in the shifting panorama no one sees better than the doctor the perennial sameness of men’s ways.
William Osler
Image
I consider myself to be just one among 7 billion human beings. If I were to think of myself as different from others, or as something special, it would create a barrier between us. What makes us the same is that we all want to lead happy lives and gather friends around us. And friendship is based on trust, honesty and openness.
Dalai Lama
Image
And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.
Haruki Murakami
Image
Selfness is an essential fact of life. The thought of nonselfness, precise sameness is terrifying.
Lewis Thomas
Image
I think people are looking for an alternative because in addition to there being sort of a myopic, lemming - like ants on a sugar cube mentality on this DNS attack story by many in the media, there's just this culture of sameness. Everybody sounds the same.
Kellyanne Conway
Image
The thing one resents about winter is its inactivity the perpetual sameness of ice-armored hills and snow-blanketed woods. Great things, of course, may be going on underneath but nature wears a mask, is icily non-committal.
Anne Bosworth Greene
Image
We all come into this world the same: naked, scared, and ignorant. After that grand entrance, the life we end up with is simply an accumulation of the choices we make.
Darren Hardy
Image
Sameness leaves us in peace but it is contradiction that makes us productive.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
Perhaps even more than constituted authority, it is social uniformity and sameness that harass the individual most.
Emma Goldman
Image
The media of sameness and separation represent the world in its most religious form - the structuring of the social in images.
Hakim Bey
Image
Properly practiced creativity MUST result in greater sales more economically achieved. Properly practiced creativity can lift your claims out of the swamp of sameness and make them accepted, believed, persuasive, urgent.
William Bernbach
Image
Equality is of two kinds, numerical and proportional by the first I mean sameness of equality in number or size by the second, equality of ratios.
Aristotle
Image
Everyone who has something is afraid of losing it, and people with nothing are worried they'll forever have nothing. Everyone is the same.
Haruki Murakami
Image
We are rarely able to interact only with folks like ourselves, who think as we do. No matter how much some of us deny this reality and long for the safety and familiarity of sameness, inclusive ways of knowing and living offer us the only true way to emancipate ourselves from the divisions that limit our minds and imaginations.
Bell Hooks
Image
No human being is the same we are like snowflakes, none of us are the same but we are all COOL
Pharrell Williams
Image
I'd never just want to do what everybody else did. I'd be contributing to the sameness of everything.
