It is time... to end the long-standing and unproductive methodological debate over 'originalism' versus 'dynamism' or 'evolution' and focus instead on how, as a substantive matter, we should interpret the Constitution in the twenty-first century, and what it has to say on questions unimaginable to our eighteenth-century Framers.
~By Diane Wood ~

~By Georg Simmel ~
I think we were the first picture to cut on Final Cut Pro. So we were the guinea pigs, because we got a deal on the system. But with that comes all sorts of technological problems I couldn't begin to describe.
~By Griffin Dunne ~
I was always a visual person. I could see things visually. I had a harder time with numbers and logic, and I always had more of an artistic sensibility. So that I could do. And it was something that I really loved.
~By Bruce Davison ~

~By Hans Blix ~

~By Leonard Orr ~
There are things so deep and complex that only intuition can reach it in our stage of development as human beings. And to Poe... well, a great logician could be an enemy to him, what he called conventional world reason.
~By John Astin ~
I recommend the same therapies for all humans with HIV. There is no reason to believe that physiologic responses to therapy will vary across lines of class, culture, race or nationality.

The chief function of the city is to convert power into form, energy into culture, dead matter into the living symbols of art, biological reproduction into social creativity.
~By Lewis Mumford ~
It's a little bit like my inability to read a guide book before I go anywhere. I can read it after I've been there and by the same logic I refuse to accept any technical stunts from anybody. I refused to learn more than I knew and I confess I missed a great deal.
~By Ben Shahn ~
If we wish to discuss knowledge in the most highly developed contemporary society, we must answer the preliminary question of what methodological representation to apply to that society.

I think a major element of jetlag is psychological. Nobody ever tells me what time it is at home.
~By David Attenborough ~

~By Bruce Sterling ~
The amount of sophistication varies according to the quality of the medium, and to the state of the same medium at different times; it must be attributed in the best cases physiologically to the medium, intellectually to the control.
~By Oliver Joseph Lodge ~
Alcohol doesn't console, it doesn't fill up anyone's psychological gaps, all it replaces is the lack of God. It doesn't comfort man. On the contrary, it encourages him in his folly, it transports him to the supreme regions where he is master of his own destiny.
~By Marguerite Duras ~
Children who cling to parents or who don't want to leave home are stunted in their emotional, psychological growth.

~By Noam Chomsky ~
Human beings lose their logic in their vindictiveness.
~By Elizabeth Cady Stanton ~

~By Adam Schiff ~
Coincidence is logical.
~By Johan Cruijff ~
Just as a new scientific discovery manifests something that was already latent in the order of nature, and at the same time is logically related to the total structure of the existing science, so the new poem manifests something that was already latent in the order of words.
~By Northrop Frye ~
Better to be without logic than without feeling.
~By Charlotte Bronte ~
Do we talk about the dignity of work? Do we give our students any reason for believing it is worthwhile to sacrifice for their work because such sacrifices improve the psychological and mental health of the person who makes them?
~By Sargent Shriver ~

~By Edward Forbes ~
I think 'destiny' is just a fancy word for a psychological pattern.
~By Jodie Foster ~
If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn't it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?

Sometimes the person who is the most logical is the person whom we call insane.
~By Kevin Spacey ~
There's always some kind of hidden logic.
~By Christian Lacroix ~

~By Peggy Noonan ~
The school was prone to dishing out punishments for anything creative that didn't fit with expectation - I just followed the logic and figured the folk club was probably much the same.

Change is vital, improvement the logical form of change.
~By James Cash Penney ~
The most beautiful as well as the most ugly inclinations of man are not part of a fixed biologically given human nature, but result from the social process which creates man.

~By George P. Baker ~
What I'm working on now - I'm back to fantasy, although considering that it's me, I'm turning it into a kind of science fantasy. It's a vampire story - but my vampires are biological vampires. They didn't become vampires because someone bit them; they were born that way.
~By Octavia Butler ~
No, no, you're not thinking; you're just being logical.

~By Lewis Mumford ~

~By Earl Browder ~
From a drop of water a logician could infer the possibility of an Atlantic or a Niagara without having seen or heard of one or the other.

~By Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel ~

~By Nam June Paik ~
In other words, we are interested in the anatomical and mental characteristics of men living under the same biological, geographical, and social environment, and as determined by their past.
~By Franz Boas ~
There is something about poetry beyond prose logic, there is mystery in it, not to be explained but admired.
