Englisches Zitat von F. L. Lucas als Bild

The two World Wars came in part, like much modern literature and art, because men, whose nature is to tire of everything in turn... tired of common sense and civilization.

F. L. Lucas

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die beiden Weltkriege kamen wie viele moderne Literatur und Kunst zum Teil dazu, weil Männer, deren Natur es ist, alles zu überfordern, der Vernunft und der Zivilisation müde sind.

Englisches Zitat von Harry Kroto als Bild

Without evidence, anything goes. Think about it. Common sense says the sun goes round the Earth. Who agrees with me?

Harry Kroto

Not to sound corny, but intelligence is big. Everything fades, and everything can be modified. But intelligence is something you can't fake. I'm not even talking about whether you can read a thesaurus backwards. But there is a beauty in common sense.

When you go in to get your car serviced, they plug it in and tell you everything that happened for the last six months. I walk in and get a stress test from my doctor, and they make a conclusion based off of that. That doesn't make sense to me. I would much prefer to have all of the data about myself and less about my car.

All our work, our whole life is a matter of semantics, because words are the tools with which we work, the material out of which laws are made, out of which the Constitution was written. Everything depends on our understanding of them.

Felix Frankfurter

Thread count is actually a lie. Just because a thread count is 1,500 on a set of sheets doesn't mean that they're well-made sheets. Truly, the quality of the cotton and the quality of the way something is woven is much more important than thread count.

Englisches Zitat von Jacob Bronowski als Bild

We are all afraid for our confidence, for the future, for the world. That is the nature of the human imagination. Yet every man, every civilization, has gone forward because of its engagement with what it has set itself to do.

I get a lot of letters. Not only from children but from adults, too. Almost every week, every month, clippings come in from some part of the world where ducks are crossing the street.

Englisches Zitat von Charles Baudelaire als Bild

We are weighed down, every moment, by the conception and the sensation of Time. And there are but two means of escaping and forgetting this nightmare: pleasure and work. Pleasure consumes us. Work strengthens us. Let us choose.

Charles Baudelaire
Englisches Zitat von Myrna Loy als Bild

I think that carrying on a life that is meant to be private in public is a breach of taste, common sense, and mental hygiene.
