'Freedom from fear' could be said to sum up the whole philosophy of human rights.

~ Muhammad Iqbal
Truth in philosophy means that concept and external reality correspond.
~ Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
As soldiers need not only courage but tactics also, so does a philosopher need not only courage and philosophy but discernment also, to tell what his right time of dying is - so that he neither seek it nor flee it.
~ Apollonius Of Tyana
One of the great questions of philosophy is, do we innately have morality, or do we get it from celestial dictation? A study of the Ten Commandments is a very good way of getting into and resolving that issue.
~ Christopher Hitchens
I always like to say that our brand or our philosophy has always been kind of this marriage between the 'food as indulgence,' and it's also been about 'food as health,' that food is vitality.
~ John Mackey
We do not learn by inference and deduction and the application of mathematics to philosophy, but by direct intercourse and sympathy.
~ Richard M. Nixon
A creative element is surely present in all great systems, and it does not seem possible that all sympathy or fundamental attitudes of will can be entirely eliminated from any human philosophy.
~ Morris Raphael Cohen
I basically have a very positive philosophy of life, because I don't feel I have anything to lose. Most things are going to turn out okay.

Only then, approaching my fortieth birthday, I made philosophy my life's work.
~ Karl Jaspers
It'll be the Internet and piracy that will kill film. There's a philosophy that the Internet should be free, but the reality is that piracy will destroy the film industry and film as an art form because it's expensive to make a movie. Maybe you'll have funky little independent movies, and it'll go back and then start up again some other way.
~ Helen Mirren
When you design a building, you start from a general philosophy, and you come down, and you start from detail and come up. Only the theoretical architect believes that you can make the concept and then sometime, somebody will come to build it.
~ Renzo Piano
Language, philosophy, and science are interwoven into the design of words, which are manipulated to create surprising illusions.
~ John Langdon
Architects feel empowered to give opinions about politics and sociology and philosophy without knowing much about it. Kind of in the same way that they think they can design furniture or fashion or utensils for dining.
~ Rafael Vinoly
Design is not for philosophy it's for life.
~ Issey Miyake
Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy, and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.
~ Kathy Ireland
The only thing Martha and I have in common is that we both used to model. Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy, and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.
You know, Republicans should have a consistent philosophy. And if your philosophy is about limited government and not intruding in people's lives, you shouldn't just inconveniently take a social issue like gay marriage and say, 'Well, unless we think - actually we should be intruding your life.'
~ Mark Mckinnon
Marriage is a team effort. Both of us share that philosophy.
~ Nick Lachey
Philosophy and Art both render the invisible visible by imagination.
~ George Henry Lewes
Art for art's sake is a philosophy of the well-fed.
~ Frank Lloyd Wright
You should carefully study the Art of Reasoning, as it is what most people are very deficient in, and I know few things more disagreeable than to argue, or even converse with a man who has no idea of inductive and deductive philosophy.
~ William John Wills
My philosophy is that I'm an artist. I perform an art not with a paint brush or a camera. I perform with bodily movement. Instead of exhibiting my art in a museum or a book or on canvas, I exhibit my art in front of the multitudes.
~ Steve Prefontaine
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
~ John Kenneth Galbraith
My philosophy comes from a worldview that looks at the world as one. It's a holistic view that sees the world as interconnected and interdependent and integrated in so many different ways, which informs my politics.

We live in a world in which politics has replaced philosophy.
~ Martin L. Gross
Our philosophy precedes from the belief that sport is an inalienable part of the educational process and a factor for promoting peace, friendship, cooperation and understanding among peoples.
~ Juan Antonio Samaranch
The Linux philosophy is 'Laugh in the face of danger'. Oops. Wrong One. 'Do it yourself'. Yes, that's it.
~ Linus Torvalds
We ought to have more people who believe in constitutionally limited government. We have to have more people come to Congress with that mindset. I think we can make this a better place, if, when elections happen, we support candidates who share that philosophy.
~ Mike Lee
My philosophy of dating is to just fart right away.
~ Jenny Mccarthy
My philosophy has always been, 'do what you love and the money will follow.'
~ Amy Weber
There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy.
~ Friedrich Nietzsche
The word philosophy sounds high-minded, but it simply means the love of wisdom. If you love something, you don't just read about it; you hug it, you mess with it, you play with it, you argue with it.
~ Hugh Jackman
The philosophy of life is this: Life is not a struggle, not a tension... Life is bliss. It is eternal wisdom, eternal existence.
~ Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
I had more energy at 50. On the other hand, at 75, I've probably got a little more wisdom and good judgment than I had at 50 because I've got more experience. But I haven't really changed. I'm still driven by the same philosophy.
~ Ted Turner
