Quote by Stephen Richards

The tragedy is that what you disapprove of in others is the very thing you disapprove of in yourself.

Summary

This quote reflects on the idea of projection, suggesting that the qualities we criticize or dislike in others are often aspects that we subconsciously reject within ourselves. It highlights the tendency for individuals to project their own insecurities, fears, or unresolved issues onto others, rather than confronting and addressing them within themselves. Essentially, it points out the irony and tragedy of disapproving of something in others while failing to recognize the similar characteristics within ourselves.

If I'm on location on some island, we usually get up at four in the morning to set up. By seven thirty, we're on the beach working until noon, then we rest. It's not exactly a vacation.

Driving a cab is not really a nurturing type of relationship. You take people and they tip you, they may not tip you, you don't know their names, they don't care about you, you don't care about them.

Diplomacy, of course, is a subtle and nuanced craft, so much so that it's said that when the most wily diplomat of the nineteenth-century passed away, other diplomats asked, on reports of his death, What do you suppose the old fox meant by that?

I do not think there is a demonstrative proof (like Euclid)

I do not think there is a demonstrative proof (like Euclid) of Christianity, nor of the existence of matter, nor of the good will and honesty of my best and oldest friends. I think all three are (except perhaps the second) far more probable than the alternatives. The case for Christianity in general is well given by ChestertonAs to why God doesn't make it demonstratively clear; are we sure that He is even interested in the kind of Theism which would be a compelled logical assent to a conclusive argument? Are we interested in it in personal matters? I demand from my friend trust in my good faith which is certain without demonstrative proof. It wouldn't be confidence at all if he waited for rigorous proof. Hang it all, the very fairy-tales embody the truth. Othello believed in Desdemona's innocence when it was proved: but that was too late. Lear believed in Cordelia's love when it was proved: but that was too late. 'His praise is lost who stays till all commend.' The magnanimity, the generosity which will trust on a reasonable probability, is required of us. But supposing one believed and was wrong after all? Why, then you would have paid the universe a compliment it doesn't deserve. Your error would even so be more interesting and important than the reality. And yet how could that be? How could an idiotic universe have produced creatures whose mere dreams are so much stronger, better, subtler than itself?

Era ella quien se abrÃa como una sandÃa madura, roja, jugosa, tibia, ella quien sudaba esa fragancia penetrante de mariscos, ella quien lo mordÃa, lo araÃ±aba, lo chupaba, gemÃa, agonizaba de sofoco y de placer. Era en su carne compasiva donde se sumergÃa hasta perder el aliento y volverse esponja, medusa, estrella de altamar.
