Severe punishment unquestionably has an immediate effect in reducing a tendency to act in a given way. This result is no doubt responsible for its widespread use. We 'instinctively' attack anyone whose behavior displeases us - perhaps not in physical assault, but with criticism, disapproval, blame, or ridicule. Whether or not there is an inherited tendency to do this, the immediate effect of the practice is reinforcing enough to explain its currency. In the long run, however, punishment does not actually eliminate behavior from a repertoire, and its temporary achievement is obtained at tremendous cost in reducing the over-all efficiency and happiness of the group. (p. 190) ~ B.F. Skinner
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by B.F. Skinner
My mom is all about risk vs. reward. So for example, if I were to go out on a date and have unprotected sex, the risk/reward would be possible STD for me vs. possible grandchild for her. Duh! Bring on the grandchildren! ~ Jarod Kintz
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Jarod Kintz
I am not where I am because of luck. I am where I am because I took risks others weren't willing to take. The world rewards the risk takers. It always has. It always will. ~ Dan Pearce
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Dan Pearce
The faith comes by hearing; the reward by follow-through. ~ Johnnie Dent Jr.
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Johnnie Dent Jr.
Don't make decisions based on whatever problem you're having.You should make choices based on what outcome you want.Decision has to be made with the bigger picture in mind. You've to weigh the risks against the rewards of your decisions.And when the balance begins to tip one way or the other,you just have to find the courage to do it.Risk vs reward & then follow your heart. ~ Adriana Locke
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Adriana Locke
One is punished most for one's virtues. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Narrative horror, disgust. That's what drives him mad, I'm sure of it, what obsesses him. I've known other people with the same aversion, or awareness, and they weren't even famous, fame is not a deciding factor, there are many individuals who experience their life as if it were the material of some detailed report, and they inhabit that life pending its hypothetical or future plot. They don't give it much thought, it's just a way of experiencing things, companionable, in a way, as if there were always spectators or permanent witnesses, even of their most trivial goings-on and in the dullest of times. Perhaps it's a substitute for the old idea of the omnipresence of God, who saw every second of each of our lives, it was very flattering in a way, very comforting despite the implicit threat and punishment, and three or four generations aren't enough for Man to accept that his gruelling existence goes on without anyone ever observing or watching it, without anyone judging it or disapproving of it. And in truth there is always someone: a listener, a reader, a spectator, a witness, who can also double up as simultaneous narrator and actor: the individuals tell their stories to themselves, to each his own, they are the ones who peer in and look at and notice things on a daily basis, from the outside in a way; or, rather, from a false outside, from a generalised narcissism, sometimes known as "consciousness". That's why so few people can withstand mockery, humiliation, ridicule, the ~ Javier Marias
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Javier Marias
It's absolutely clear that whatever cruel and unusual punishments may - may mean with regard to future things, such as death by injection or the electric chair, it's clear that - that the death penalty, in and of itself, is not considered cruel and unusual punishment. ~ Antonin Scalia
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Antonin Scalia
And above all, what a strange attitude that actually is, when we no longer find Christian service worthwhile if the denarius of salvation may be obtained even without it! It seems as if we want to be rewarded, not just with our own salvation, but most especially with other people's damnation - just like the workers hired in the first hour. That is very human, but the Lord's parable is particularly meant to make us quite aware of how profoundly un-Christian it is at the same time. Anyone who looks on the loss of salvation for others as the condition, as it were, on which he serves Christ will in the end only be able to turn away grumbling, because THAT kind of reward is contrary to the loving-kindness of God.
-What It Means To Be A Christian ~ Pope Benedict XVI
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Pope Benedict XVI
You're not a conventional man." "No!" He hooted. "I never claimed to be! Except before certain selection committees of course. A conventional man! Ah, ha ha ha ha ha! - the conventional men get Maya. That is their reward." And he laughed like a wild man. ~ Kim Stanley Robinson
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Kim Stanley Robinson
If prosperity is regarded as the reward of virtue it will be regarded as the symptom of virtue. ~ Gilbert K. Chesterton
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Gilbert K. Chesterton
When you stop relying on aversive controls such as threats, intimidation, and punishment, and when you know how to use reinforcement to get not just the same but better results, your perception of the world undergoes a shift. You don't have to become a wimp. You don't have to give up being in charge. You lose nothing of yourself. You just see things you didn't see before. ~ Karen Pryor
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Karen Pryor
The Buddhist, who thanks no man, who says "Do not flatter your benefactors," but who, in his conviction that every good deed can by no possibility escape its reward, will not deceive the benefactor by pretending that he has done more than he should, is a Transcendentalist. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The reward is in the doing of it. ~ Anthony Hopkins
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Anthony Hopkins
A mystery confounds the problem of industry in art. In the last analysis, to work is simply not enough. But we have to act as if it were, leaving reward aside. ~ Anne Truitt
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Anne Truitt
America felt victorious and generous after World War II. They had also learned from the mistakes after World War I when they imposed punishment on Germany. What became of Germany? A Nazi dictatorship which threatened the world. Today's Germany doesn't feel as prosperous and generous as America then. But actually, Germany still is very prosperous. ~ George Soros
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by George Soros
Special thanks to Martha Sharpe and everyone at Anansi; to Mandy Barber, for the use of her stunning visual art; to Karen Mac Cormack, for her advice during the early stages of this project; and to David Bromige (weaver of radhats), for his enthusiasm which encouraged me to develop this piece into a book-length poem. ~ Darren Wershler-Henry
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Darren Wershler-Henry
I can take more punishment than anyone in the business. ~ Ric Flair
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Ric Flair
everything in the area of law enforcement, including criminal law, has at one time or another been handled by the private sector quite adequately, and in some places it's occurring even today. The second reason is that in fact the law and law enforcement are not public goods. Public goods are supposed to be goods that everyone has equal access to and that the private sector will not provide. As I said, the private sector does provide these things, and furthermore the idea of equal access to justice is just not true. We have scarce resources being used in law enforcement and adjudication and prosecution and in punishment, and so the use of these resources for one thing means they are not being effectively used for something else. There are tradeoffs. The vast majority of crimes that are reported to police are never resolved. The vast majority of crimes committed are never reported to police. So the belief that law and law enforcement are public goods simply doesn't stand up to reality. ~ Anonymous

Do not seek recognition or gratification from man - serve the Lord. He knows how to reward everyone ~ Sunday Adelaja
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Sunday Adelaja
Behind every temptation is a divine reward in resisting it;
behind every divine opportunity is a reward in taking advantage of it. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo
Self-reliance is the only road to true freedom, and being one's own person is its ultimate reward ~ Patricia Sampson
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Patricia Sampson
Leo's very existence had been a kind of perpetual punishment for Vasili. So, then, why did he miss him? ~ Tom Rob Smith
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Tom Rob Smith
Joy is the ultimate reward in life. ~ Sunday Adelaja
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Sunday Adelaja
In a free enterprise system, with an honest and stable money, there is dominantly a close link between effort and productivity, on the one hand, and economic reward on the other. Inflation severs this link. Reward comes to depend less and less on effort and production, and more and more on successful gambling and luck. ~ Henry Hazlitt
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Henry Hazlitt
There is no sin unless through a man's own will, and hence the reward when we do right things also of our own will.
(Against Fortunatus) ~ Augustine Of Hippo
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Augustine Of Hippo
Simplification of the tax code would not only unlock dormant economic potential, but, in the process, it would blunt the preferred weapon of social engineers, who reward favored industries, punish success and distort economic incentives. ~ David Harsanyi
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by David Harsanyi
...an external reward can affect one's interpretation of one's own motivation, and interpretation that comes to be self-fulfilling. A similar effect may account for the familiar fact that when someone turns his hobby into a business, he often loses pleasure in it. Likewise, an intellectual who pursues an academic career gets professionalized, and this may lead him to stop thinking. This line of reasoning suggests that the kind of appreciative attention where one remains focused on what one is doing can arise only in leisure activities. Such a conclusion would put pleasurable absorption beyond the ken of any activity that is undertaken for the sake of making money, because although money is undoubtedly good, it is not intrinsically so. ~ Matthew Crawford
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Matthew Crawford
Love is its own reward. We do not have to worry about what other people think about us. We can never feel alone or isolated when we understand that it is impossible for love to leave our side. Love is all around us. ~ Donna Goddard
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Donna Goddard
Every step I've taken in life has led me to you," she said in a whisper. "And because I'm here now, I don't regret one thing. For every bad thing that happened, I've been rewarded something even more beautiful than all of the bad in return. You made it worth it. You're my gift in life. I lived through the bad and survived. My reward was that God gave me you. ~ Abbi Glines
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Abbi Glines
Every idea in this book runs against our natural tendency to want to relax, take it easy, reward ourselves for decades of work and childrearing. Our default mode at midlife is entropy. The default is not destiny, and on this, the research is unequivocal: for every fork in the road, you are almost invariably better off making the harder choice. Harder in the moment, that is, but easier over the years, as your body and mind remain strong. By resisting entropy, but pushing through the inertia the beckons us to rest a little longer, to slow down just a notch, until your life has narrowed to a pinprick – by resisting those forces, you dramatically up the odds that your life will be rich to your final breath, deeply entwined with family and friends, engaged in intellectual pursuits, and infused with a purpose that extends beyond yourself. Yes, it's hard.

Yes, it's worth it. ~ Barbara Bradley Hagerty
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Barbara Bradley Hagerty
How can someone live with their own conscience when you reward a domestic terrorist with continued safety and betray the family of fallen police officer waiting for decades for justice for his murder? So let's ask the question. Hillary Clinton as a coddler of the brutal Castro brothers and betrayer of the family of fallen state trooper Werner Foerster and his family. ~ Chris Christie
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Chris Christie
It is not the ownership of the instruments of production which it is important for the State to assume. If the State is able to determine the aggregate amount of resources devoted to augmenting the instruments and the basic rate of reward to those who own them, it will have accomplished all that is necessary. Moreover, the necessary measures of socialization can be introduced gradually and without a break in the general traditions of society. ~ John Maynard Keynes
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by John Maynard Keynes
Perhaps we should stop talking about being faithful to have a quiet time with God each day, as if we were doing something to earn a reward. It would be better to talk about the privilege of spending time with the God of the universe and the importance for our own sake of being consistent in that practice. ~ Jerry Bridges
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Jerry Bridges
Savers have to be punished so debtors can be saved.

Why? Because if debtors are rescued, that makes it possible for more debts to be issued in the future.

And why is that important? Because the banking system needs ever more loans in order to survive. ~ Chris Martenson
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Chris Martenson
What is a fanatic? One who believes passionately and acts desperately upon what he believes. I was always believing in something and so getting into trouble. The more my hands were slapped the more firmly I believed. I believed- and the rest of the world did not! If it were only a question of enduring punishment one could go on believing till the end; but the way of the world is more insidious than that. Instead of being punished you are undermined, hollowed out, the ground taken from under your feet. It isn't even treachery, what I have in mind. Treachery is understandable and combatable. No, it is something worse, something less than treachery. It's a negativism that causes you to overreach yourself. you are perpetually spending your energy in the act of balancing yourself. You are seized with a sort of spiritual vertigo, you totter on the brink, your hair stands on end, you can't believe that beneath your feet lies an immeasurable abyss. It comes about through excess of enthusiasm, through a passionate desire to embrace people, to show them your love. The more you reach out toward the world the more the world retreats. Nobody wants real love, real hatred. Nobody wants you to put your hand in his sacred entrails- that's only for the priest in the hour of sacrifice. While you live, while the blood's still warm, you are to pretend that there is no such thing as blood and no such thing as a skeleton beneath the covering of flesh. "Keep off the grass!" That's the motto by which ~ Henry Miller
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Henry Miller
If you are willing to take the punishment, you're halfway through the battle. That the issues may be trivial, the battle ugly, is another point. ~ Lillian Hellman
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Lillian Hellman
If it was really successful, it was a life calling, a career I was excited about doing, so I didn't think the overall risk was anywhere near as high as what the reward was. ~ John Hickenlooper
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by John Hickenlooper
The particular aspect of history which both attracts and benefits its readers is the examination of causes and the capacity, which is the reward of this study, to decide in each case the best policy to follow. Now in all political situations we must understand that the principle factor which makes for success or failure is the form of a state's constitution: it is from this source, as if from a fountainhead, that all designs and plans of action not only originate but reach their fulfillment. ~ Polybius
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Polybius
The number of games went up or down according to the brutal, elegant logic of the economics of fun:
a certain amount of difficulty
plus
a certain amount of your friends
plus
a certain amount of interesting strangers
plus
a certain amount of reward
plus
a certain amount of opportunity
equaled
fun ~ Cory Doctorow
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Cory Doctorow
Knowledge is the reward of action. For it is by doing things that one becomes transformed. Executing a symbolical gesture, actually living through, to the very limit, a particular role, one comes to realize the truth inherent in the role. Suffering its consequences, one fathoms and exhausts its contents. ~ Heinrich Zimmer
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Heinrich Zimmer
The method of collective punishment so far has proved effective. ~ Moshe Dayan
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Moshe Dayan
Correction officers struck adolescents in the head and face at "an alarming rate" as punishment, even when inmates posed no threat; officers took inmates to isolated areas for beatings out of view of video cameras; and many inmates were so afraid of the violence that they asked, for their own protection, to go to solitary confinement, the report said. ~ Anonymous
Reward Vs Punishment quotes by Anonymous
God seems to reward us with good, delightful experiences when we move with joy through the less-than-delightful times. ~ Charles R. Swindoll
