'Confusion is the last stop on the way to clarity,' he told me. 'The part of your mind that thinks it knows it all is butting up against a bigger idea. It's only a matter of time until the smaller thought gives way to the greater. Don't fight it. Just try to enjoy the ride.'

Alan Cohen
fighting love thinking

We don't fight about music. We don't fight about artistic direction. The things like that we could fight about, we really don't. We are pretty lucky for that.

Alan Cooper
artistic lucky fighting
I will continue to fight for justice, fairness, and constitutiona... by Alan Dershowitz

I will continue to fight for justice, fairness, and constitutional rights until my dying breath.

Alan Dershowitz
fighting dying justice

God's irony, that in order to fight and defeat the threat of terrorism, we shall have to be clear about the principle of justice that allows us to understand what is evil in terrorism. And that principle of justice is the claim of justice that is inherent in every innocent human life. But if that claim was there in the Twin Towers, if it was there on the airplanes that those terrorists attacked, you explain to me why it is not there in the womb!

Alan Keyes
airplane fighting order
Marriage is nature's way of keeping us from fighting with strange... by Alan King

Marriage is nature's way of keeping us from fighting with strangers.

Alan King
marriage fighting way

When I go up there, which is my intention, the Big Judge will say to me, Where are your wounds? and if I say I haven’t any, he will say, Was there nothing to fight for? I couldn’t face that question. (Ah, But Your Land Is Beautiful)

Alan Paton
fighting land beautiful

I realized up there that our planet is not infinite. It's fragile. That may not be obvious to a lot of folks, and it's tough that people are fighting each other here on Earth instead of trying to get together and live on this planet. We look pretty vulnerable in the darkness of space.

Alan Shepard
fighting space peace

If you went through life refusing all the bait dangled in front of you, that would be no life at all. No changes would be made and you would have nothing to fight against. Life would be dull as ditchwater.

Alan Sillitoe
bait fighting dull

Since opposed principles, or ideologies, are irreconcilable, wars fought over principle will be wars of mutual annihilation. But wars fought for simple greed will be far less destructive, because the aggressor will be careful not to destroy what he is fighting to capture. Reasonable - that is, human - men will always be capable of compromise, but men who have dehumanized themselves by becoming the blind worshipers of an idea or an ideal are fanatics whose devotion to abstractions makes them the enemies of life.

Alan Watts
fighting simple war
Running away from fear is fear; fighting pain is pain; trying to... by Alan Watts

Running away from fear is fear; fighting pain is pain; trying to be brave is being scared

Alan Watts
pain fighting running

To remain stable is to refrain from trying to separate yourself from a pain because you know that you cannot. Running away from fear is fear, fighting pain is pain, trying to be brave is being scared. If the mind is in pain, the mind is pain. The thinker has no other form than his thought. There is no escape.

Alan Watts
pain fighting running

It's not hard to feel afraid and insecure. I still fight an inner-critic voice, definitely. I hear it a lot.

Alanis Morissette
insecure voice fighting

So much history can be lost if no one tells the story -- so that's what I do. I tell the stories. This is my way of fighting for social change.

Alanis Obomsawin
fighting stories way
My conscience aches but it's going to lose the fight. by Alannah Myles

My conscience aches but it's going to lose the fight.

Alannah Myles
ache loses fighting

I take a less gloomy view. A good life means fighting to be human under growing difficulties. A lot of young folk know this and fight very hard, but after a few years life gets easier for them and they think they've become completely human when they've only stopped trying. I stopped trying, but my life was so full of strenuous routines that I wouldn't have noticed had it been not for my disease. My whole professional life was a diseased and grandiose attack on my humanity. It is an achievement to know that I am simply a wounded and dying man. Who can be more regal than a dying man?

Alasdair Gray
good-life fighting mean

We are not so mad as to think that we shall create a world in which murder will not occur. We are fighting for a world in which murder will no longer be legal.

Albert Camus
mad fighting thinking

…there's no question of heroism in all this. It's a matter of common decency. That's an idea which may make some people smile, but the only means of fighting a plague is - common decency.

Albert Camus
fighting common-decency mean

There is merely bad luck in not being loved; there is misfortune in not loving. All of us, today, are dying of this misfortune. For violence and hatred dry up the heart itself; the long fight for justice exhausts the love that nevertheless gave birth to it.

Albert Camus
dry-up fighting heart
