One of the consequences of such notions as "entitlements" is that people who have contributed nothing to society feel that society owes them something, apparently just for being nice enough to grace us with their presence.
Thomas Sowell
[On contemporary movies] People watch movies - and it`s vague ideas, it`s vague notions, but people pick up on these things, that they are supposed to think certain ways or that they`re not supposed to think, basically, and they don`t. And then it`s like,...
Crispin Glover
[on Paul Newman] Paul Newman is full of innovation. He has wonderful immediate ideas. Very often supplements mine, or has something better than my notions. Some action perhaps.
John Huston
We question a country`s self-mythology. Perfect town and perfect family are - like Westerns - part of America`s mythology, involving notions of past innocence and naïveté. But is it possible for innocence to exist while something heinous transpires elsewh...
David Cronenberg
The Southern whites are in many respects a great people. Looked at from a certain point of view, they are picturesque. If one will put oneself in a romantic frame of mind, one can admire their notions of chivalry and bravery and justice.
James Weldon Johnson
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.
Marcus Aurelius

Aislinn Ryan
Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively. Strive to get clear notions about all. Give up no science entirely; for science is but one.
Alton Greene
Our personal consumer choices have ecological, social, and spiritual consequences. It is time to re-examine some of our deeply held notions that underlie our lifestyles.
David Suzuki

Ron Paul
It`s embarrassing to be involved in the same business as the mainstream comic thing. It`s still very embarrassing to tell other adults that I draw comic books - their instant, preconceived notions of what that means.
Daniel Clowes
It wasn`t that I was shy to go out with him, I just didn`t want people with preconceived notions to assume anything about why we were together. I was pretty careful for a while.
Rose McGowan
I joined the air force. I took to it immediately when I arrived there. I did three years, eight months, and ten days in all, but it took me a year and a half to get disabused of my romantic notions about it.
Morgan Freeman
I found it an interesting portrait of a marriage in exploring notions of how one partner supports the other, whilst not jeopardizing the greater good - which is the family.
Rachel Griffiths
But ultimately what I was impressed by during my years in government was how much the intellectual climate and the prevailing intellectual notions constrained and represented the universe within which the discourse took place.
Allison Hostetter
But the US is a democracy, and when a government is voted out, these humanist notions of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness continue.
Alan Pardew
