For of what account are Truth and Love when Life itself has ceased to seem desirable? ~ Clifford Whittingham Beers
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Whittingham Beers
I am told that today rather more than 60 per cent of the men who go to university go on a Government grant. This is a new class that has entered upon the scene. It is the white-collar proletariat. They do not go to university to acquire culture but to get a job, and when they have got one, scamp it. They have no manners and are woefully unable to deal with any social predicament. Their idea of a celebration is to go to a public house and drink six beers. They are mean, malicious and envious . They are scum. ~ W. Somerset Maugham
Clifford W Beers quotes by W. Somerset Maugham
I have been forced to believe that neither the scholarly grace of my friend Elliott nor the buxom beauty of my friend Rowden have touched that heart of ice."

Elliot and Rowden, boiling with indignation, cried out, "And you!"

"I," said Clifford blandly, "do fear to tread where you rush in. ~ Robert W. Chambers
Clifford W Beers quotes by Robert W. Chambers
One thing with Montreal is it's so cold and everyone's so poor and beer's so cheap: if you go to a show you have to brave the weather to get there. So you show up and everyone's soaking wet - there's a sense of 'I trekked through three feet of snow to get here!' I think there's a kind of camaraderie that arises out of that, that's important to me as well. ~ Grimes
Clifford W Beers quotes by Grimes
My soul is an entangled knot,
Upon a liquid vortex wrought
By Intellect in the Unseen residing,
And thine doth like a convict sit,
With marline-spike untwisting it,
Only to find its knottiness abiding;
Since all the tools for its untying
In four-dimensional space are lying,
Wherein they fancy intersperses
Long avenues of universes,
While Klein and Clifford fill the void
With one finite, unbounded homoloid,
And think the Infinite is now at last destroyed. ~ James Clerk Maxwell
Clifford W Beers quotes by James Clerk Maxwell
Clifford Brown was in the jazz circles considered to be probably the greatest trumpet player who ever lived. ~ Herb Alpert
Clifford W Beers quotes by Herb Alpert
Obviously, the final goal of scientists and mathematicians is not simply the accumulation of facts and lists of formulas, but rather they seek to understand the patterns, organizing principles, and relationships between these facts to form theorems and entirely new branches of human thought. For me, mathematics cultivates a perpetual state of wonder about the nature of mind, the limits of thoughts, and our place in this vast cosmos. ~ Clifford A. Pickover
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford A. Pickover
Cultural analysis is intrinsically incomplete. And, worse than that, the more deeply it goes the less complete it is. ~ Clifford Geertz
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Geertz
Consensus is a poor substitute for leadership. ~ Charlotte Beers
Clifford W Beers quotes by Charlotte Beers
It is wrong always, everywhere, and for anyone, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence. ~ William Kingdon Clifford
Clifford W Beers quotes by William Kingdon Clifford
The people of Texas are rightly proud of their own, just like the French and the Italians, but visiting artists have often been given a shot in the history of art. ~ Clifford Ross
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Ross
Spices are like colors: if you mix them all together you get a taste that is akin to the colors black, dark brown, or grey. But if you mix spices judiciously and sparingly - as you would mix yellow and blue to make green - you get a wholly unexpected and beautiful flavor. ~ Clifford Cohen
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Cohen
The next day I got up early and walked through the city. I visited the Musee Rodin. I stopped in a bistro, and with all the fear of a boy approaching a beautiful girl at a party, I ordered two beers and then a burger. I walked to Le Jardin du Luxembourg. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon. I took a seat. The garden was busting with people, again in all their alien ways. At that moment a strange loneliness took hold. Perhaps it was that I had not spoken a single word of English that entire day. Perhaps it was that I had never sat in a public garden before, had not even know it to be something I'd want to do. And all around me there were people who did this regularly. ~ Ta-Nehisi Coates
Clifford W Beers quotes by Ta-Nehisi Coates
Okay. So, Koturovic studied the structure of the brain and how much bio-electricity it put out and what frequencies that electricity was on. He moved to London and in 1877 he attended a lecture given by a mathematician named William Clifford who was one of the first people to propose the idea of other dimensions. He noticed - " "Wait," said Tim. "Other dimensions?" She nodded. "I looked him up. Clifford did a lot of work with concepts like curved space and there being more to the world than just the standard three dimensions. At least a fourth, mathematically speaking, and probably a fifth, sixth, seventh, and so on." Tim raised an eyebrow but said nothing else. ~ Peter Clines
Clifford W Beers quotes by Peter Clines
Feeling guilty is not a substitute for loving somebody; it only is an indicator that you have failed to love somebody. ~ Clifford Cohen
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Cohen
I had a dream about you. We were ice fishing in my freezer. I caught a few cold beers, and you wondered if we should drink them, or throw them back because they were babies. ~ Dora J. Arod
Clifford W Beers quotes by Dora J. Arod
What do you mean by faith? Is faith enough for Man? Should he be satisfied with faith alone? Is there no way of finding out the truth? Is the attitude of faith, of believing in something for which there can be no more than philosophic proof, the true mark of a Christian? ~ Clifford D. Simak
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford D. Simak
Where'd you get that lighter?" she demanded.
"Frida," Dan said, closing it. "She left it behind. Remember how she was always talking about outdoorsy stuff? She said she kept a water-resistant lighter on her at all times, in case she needed emergency fire."
There was a short beat of silence in the dumpster.
"Huh," said Dan. "Except probably now. ~ Clifford Riley
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Riley
Last summer had meant lots of Sam Adams Summer Ale by herself on hot weekend days when it seemed like just her and the Dominican Day parade. ~ Stephanie Clifford
Clifford W Beers quotes by Stephanie Clifford
Man is an animal suspended in webs of significance he himself has spun. ~ Clifford Geertz
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Geertz
If there's ever a place where you can't argue that you can put the facts over here and the text over there and see if they fit, it is surely in anthropology. ~ Clifford Geertz
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Geertz
We know all their gods; they ignore ours. What they call our sins are our gods, and what they call their gods, we name otherwise. ~ Natalie Clifford Barney
Clifford W Beers quotes by Natalie Clifford Barney
When I was broke, no one ever offered to buy me a beer. Now that I have quite a bit of money, everybody tries to buy me beers. Where were all these people back when I was in college and broke? ~ Chris Moneymaker
Clifford W Beers quotes by Chris Moneymaker
We're going through a kind of ancient, barbaric war dance now - it's almost an ultimate in absurdity. ~ Clark M. Clifford
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clark M. Clifford
I walk away, feeling Brody's gaze on me. There's no doubt that as soon as we get back in the car, I'm going to get it - good.

Instead, Brody stays quiet while I assemble the paperwork. He may not be speaking, but he's saying a whole lot in the silence.

"Just say it," I mumble and finally look over.

"I'm not saying a word." He raises his hands. "Clearly, you two know each other, and it ain't from growing up here. You tell me everything, so there is no way you wouldn't have told me you know him," Brody pauses and leans back. "I'm not saying a word about who you may or may not have slept with recently. Even though, it's pretty obvious."

"You know, you not saying a word took you a long time."

"It's not like you've had a five-year drought since your divorce. Or that you slept with a singer/actor. Nope. I have nothing to say about that. Not a thing."

I groan. "Could you not say anything for real this time?"

"Sure thing, boss. I'll just be over here, watching Hell start to thaw."

This is not going to get any better. I'd almost rather hear the questions. This is Brody Webber. My partner, my friend, and the one person who I have enough dirt on to make his life hell if he repeats this.

"Okay, fine. Yes, I slept with Eli Walsh. I was crazy and dumb. I also had about six beers, which is two over my threshold, and I was trying to be in the moment for once. Fucking Nicole and her pep talks."< ~ Corinne Michaels
Clifford W Beers quotes by Corinne Michaels
As an actor, to go and see those shows - great plays like 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?' and Clifford Odets's 'Golden Boy' - it's so exhilarating. I'd personally love to perform the role of Jerry in Edward Albee's 'The Zoo Story.' He's a transient, lost soul, and an example of humanity at its rawest. ~ Keegan Allen
Clifford W Beers quotes by Keegan Allen
There is an Indian story
at least I heard it as an Indian story
about an Englishman who, having been told that the world rested on a platform which rested on the back of an elephant which rested in turn on the back of a turtle, asked (perhaps he was an ethnographer; it is the way they behave), what did the turtle rest on? Another turtle. And that turtle? 'Ah, Sahib, after that it is turtles all the way down ~ Clifford Geertz
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Geertz
To breathe is to live, but to write unimpeded is to breathe eternal. ~ M. Clifford
Clifford W Beers quotes by M. Clifford
Mrs. Holt, however, is grinning. "I have a wonderful announcement," she says. "No practice test today!" Jimmy Russell shouts. "No tests at all!" Bobby Clifford shouts. Mrs. Holt's grin gets a little tight and she says, "Be careful, boys, or I might decide to have two practice tests today." Bobby and Jimmy cover their mouths with their hands. Lately school has been about as much fun as packing. That's because statewide testing is in a few weeks. Mrs. Holt and our principal, Mr. Robinson, have made it clear that doing well on the statewide tests is REALLY IMPORTANT. ~ Paula Danziger
Clifford W Beers quotes by Paula Danziger
There is nothing that can be said by mathematical symbols and relations which cannot also be said by words. The converse, however, is false. Much that can be and is said by words cannot successfully be put into equations, because it is nonsense. ~ Clifford Truesdell
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Truesdell
Man was engaged in a mad scramble for power and knowledge, but nowhere is there any hint of what he meant to do with it once he had attained it. He ~ Clifford D. Simak
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford D. Simak
Russia tried to introduce beer as kind of the new vodka - and it's working with younger people in major cities - but you can have ten shots of vodka and be perfectly okay. If I had ten beers, I would be liquidated. ~ Gary Shteyngart
Clifford W Beers quotes by Gary Shteyngart
Spend all your kisses. ~ Jack Clifford Smith
Clifford W Beers quotes by Jack Clifford Smith
It was vowed that there would never be a charge made for entering said Park. It was a gentleman's agreement. But most of the gentlemen eventually died. ~ Jacob Clifford Moomaw
Clifford W Beers quotes by Jacob Clifford Moomaw
[Culture] denotes an historically transmitted pattern of meanings embodied in symbols, a system of inherited conceptions expressed in symbolic forms, by means of which men communicate, perpetuate, and develop their knowledge about and attitudes toward life. ~ Clifford Geertz
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford Geertz
I trade with you my mind. ~ Clifford D. Simak
Clifford W Beers quotes by Clifford D. Simak
I didn't drink because I knew that if I jumped into a bottle, I'd pull the cork in after me. ~ Ron Clifford
Clifford W Beers quotes by Ron Clifford
If a belief is not realized immediately in open deeds, it is stored up for the guidance of the future. ~ William Kingdon Clifford
Clifford W Beers quotes by William Kingdon Clifford
