Madeleine Albright

Louis Tomlinson
My ideas for the future? To take over the world.
Preconceived ideas are like searchlights which illumine the path of the experimenter and serve him as a guide to interrogate nature. They become a danger only if he transforms them into fixed ideas-this is why I should like to see these profound words inscribed on the threshold of all the temples of science: 'The greatest derangement of the mind is to believe in something because one wishes it to be so.'
Louis Pasteur
There's this idea that somebody's job could be more important than somebody else's, and to me, that's not true.
Kenny Chesney
“Forget motivation; it’s a myth. I don’t know when we all bought into the idea that in order to change you must “feel” eager or “feel” motivated to act. It’s complete garbage. The moment it’s time to assert yourself, you will not feel motivated. In fact, you won’t feel like doing anything at all. If you want to improve your life, you’ll need to get off your rear end and kick your own butt. In my world, I call that the power of a push.”
Mel Robbins
"I love the idea of there being two sexes, don't you?"
James Thurber
"An idea can be tested, whereas if you have no idea, nothing can be tested and you don't understand anything. The molecule that you make when you are getting sunburned or when you eat a lot of food is part of the same molecule that contains an endorphin or an opiate. No one has ever had a hypothesis about why the two are together."
James D. Watson
"Everyone has an idea, but it's really about executing the idea and attracting other people to help you with the idea."
Jack Dorsey
"My ideas usually come not at my desk writing but in the midst of living."
Anais Nin
"When I have an idea, I turn down the flame, as if it were a little alcohol stove, as low as it will go. Then it explodes and that is my idea."
Ernest Hemingway
"Service without ideal of self . . . trains you to transcend all the artificial distinctions imposed by history and geography, and to realize that the human community is one and indivisible."
Sathya Baba
"Good ideas, good conduct and adherence to Truth should result from our education. Only those who acquire these qualities can be called truly educated."
"All the information about you as a patient would be in one spot, ... The idea here is to stop collecting paper."
Larry Ellison
