- Philip K. Dick99◆ Humans — who enslave, castrate, experiment on, and fillet other animals — have had an understandable penchant for pretending animals do not feel pain. A sharp distinction between humans and 'animals' is essential if we are to bend them to our will, make them work for us, wear them, eat them — without any disquieting tinges of guilt or regret. It is unseemly of us, who often behave so unfeelingly toward other animals, to contend that only humans can suffer. The behavior of other animals renders such pretensions specious. They are just too much like us.
- Carl Sagan99◆ Handsome is as handsome does
- J.R.R. Tolkien99◆ Cultural legacies are powerful forces. They have deep roots and long lives. They persist, generation after generation, virtually intact, even as the economic and social and demographic conditions that spawned them have vanished, and they play such a role in directing attitudes and behavior that we cannot make sense of our world without them.
- Malcolm Gladwell99◆ Sometimes people will hear you and be able to change their behavior, but often their behavior has more to do with their own need for approval than with your need for support. No matter what their response, you need to be firm and hold your ground. At the end of the day, your health is your responsibility.
- Jillian Michaels99◆ We create our fate every day . . . most of the ills we suffer from are directly traceable to our own behavior.
- Henry Miller99◆ We considered behaving, but it's against our nature.
- O.R. Melling99◆ So I've started wearing sweatpants to bed because I really don't need Santa seeing me in my underwear.
- Jeff Kinney99◆ All the animals, the plants, the minerals, even other kinds of men, are being broken and reassembled every day, to preserve an elite few, who are the loudest to theorize on freedom, but the least free of all.
- Thomas Pynchon99◆ It is a sin to believe evil of others but it is seldom a mistake.
- Garrison Keillor99◆ If you put good apples into a bad situation, you'll get bad apples.
- Philip G. Zimbardo99◆ It is impossible to understand addiction without asking what relief the addict finds, or hopes to find, in the drug or the addictive behaviour.
- Gabor Maté99◆ I can see patterns in events, and behaviors; in mathematics, I follow slower
- Jacqueline Carey99◆ The weirder you're going to behave, the more normal you should look. It works in reverse, too. When I see a kid with three or four rings in his nose, I know there is absolutely nothing extraordinary about that person.
- P.J. O'Rourke99◆ The study of doctrine and the teaching of doctrine will change behavior more than the study of behavior will change behavior.
- Boyd K. Packer99
