Quote by Bill Gates

Treatment without prevention is simply unsustainable.

Treatment without prevention is simply unsustainable.

Summary

This quote implies that only focusing on treating the consequences of a problem, without addressing the root causes or taking preventive measures, is not a sustainable approach. It suggests that investing efforts and resources solely in treatment is insufficient and inefficient. To achieve long-term success and minimize the recurrence of issues, it is necessary to consider preventive actions that address the underlying factors, reducing the need for frequent and repetitive treatments. By shifting the focus towards prevention, we can establish more sustainable and effective solutions.

If we're picking people to draw out of their own conscience

If we're picking people to draw out of their own conscience and experience a 'new' Constitution, we should not look principally for good lawyers. We should look to people who agree with us. When we are in that mode, you realize we have rendered the Constitution useless.

The poetry and transgression that was so much of surrealism'

The poetry and transgression that was so much of surrealism's anarchic force has been recruited into mainstream culture. It has been made commonplace by television and magazine merchandising, by computer games and Internet visuals, by film and MTV, by the fashion shoot.

All these things have you said of beauty. Yet in truth you spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied, And beauty is not a need but an ecstasy. It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty hand stretched forth, But rather a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted. It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear, But rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears. It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw, But rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight. People of Orphalese, beauty is life when life unveils her holy face. But you are life and you are the veil. Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror. But you are eternity and your are the mirror.

Other nations of different habits are not enemies: they are godsends. Men require of their neighbours something sufficiently akin to be understood, something sufficiently different to provoke attention, and something great enough to command admiration. We must not expect, however, all the virtues.

You will find that the truth is often unpopular and the contest between agreeable fancy and disagreeable fact is unequal. For, in the vernacular, we Americans are suckers for good news.
