Quotes by Thinking I am a nonbeliever myself. But I think there's so much about religion that is not factual in nature as to why people engage with it and what it means to them. You can debunk why you think there's no physical evidence for God and why the story of Jesus didn't really happen that way and stuff like that all the live-long day, and it's not going to make a difference to what role religion has in people's lives and how they feel about it and how it makes their lives better or worse. Adam Conover meanjesusthinking I think that veganism is a totally great choice with incredible benefits, but I don't think it's reasonable to expect other people to be vegan or to expect everybody to be vegan.

Adam Conover choicespeoplethinking I think having the opportunity to get inside the skin of people that operate outside the law and normal moral and ethical restraints, and then to go home afterwards leaving them on set, is pretty cathartic. I get to play out all kinds of bad behavior without anyone actually coming to harm. Adam Croasdell homeopportunitythinking I like people and I like hearing their stories. The way that they deliver them is always very particular and I think that their accents are integral to that. Adam Croasdell storiespeoplethinking I'm always thinking, 'my career is over, I have to move back to Omaha, and work on the railroad, with the rest of my family. So no, I'm never thinking I've 'arrived.' I think that's a good way to be. Adam DeVine my-familymovingthinking I always think back to the original movies and to those quieter moments where Luke is out in A New Hope, and there are the two suns setting. It is the equivalent, basically, of a farm boy dying to get out of his small town and do something bigger. It's those kinds of universal themes that ground this whole thing in space. Adam Driver spaceboysthinking If I'm not doing something or working on something, I literally just sit in the room and think, which I don't think is productive. I won't go outside for days. Adam Driver ifsroomsthinking I think people are willing to take more of a risk on an indie film, about character, etc...but at the same time, when I work on projects that are substantially bigger, in a way they do feel small. Even though the catering is way better and we actually have someone shooting with real film.... The budgets are bigger but the story still feels small, like an indie film. Adam Driver realcharacterthinking I think it's possible to be free in a big production. It's the eye of the director and the actor and the story.

Adam Duritz peopleneedsthinking I think the biggest, saddest thing that happens in our lives is that we just don't embrace the things that could make it better because they don't seem to make it better at any given moment or we can't decide how to get across the aisle to that person. Adam Duritz momentslife-isthinking I think I'd been limiting myself in some ways just writing in first person all the time. Adam Duritz writingfirststhinking I don't think I'll ever meet the perfect woman. I might have to get me one of them mail order women.

We're gonna have to think about the world in a different way if we want to address complex systems. Adam Frank lawmovingthinking Like most young physicists, when I was a kid enraptured with physics, I thought, "Everything can be explained by the theory of the atom!" But as I've gotten older, and I look at the world, I think there's a lot of ways in which that kind of building up from the smallest building blocks doesn't actually account for the world.
