En los estudios cualitativos los investigadores siguen un diseño de la investigación flexible. Comienzan sus estudios con interrogantes sólo vagamente formulados. — La investigación cualitativa es inductiva.

"metodología cualitativa se refiere en su más amplio sentido a la investigación que produce datos descriptivos: las propias palabras de las personas, habladas o escritas, y la conducta observable"

En la metodología cualitativa el investigador ve al escenario y a las personas en una perspectiva holística

Investigadores sociales son naturalistas:

Perspectiva fenomenológica

el investigador cualitativo ve las cosas como si ellas estuvieran ocurriendo por primera vez. Nada se da por sobrentendido. Todo es un tema de investigación. Página 8

Para el investigador cualitativo, todas las perspectivas son valiosas.

Los Métodos Cualitativos son humanistas

Los investigadores cualitativos dan énfasis a la validez en su investigación.

Para el investigador cualitativo, todos los escenarios y personas son dignos de estudio.

El investigador social es un artífice.

Dos enfoques teóricos que pertenecen la tradición fenomenológica:

I only ever really take out my guitar when I'm miserable, which isn't necessarily a very good time to do it.

I've never been the wilting flower. I've never been the girl who's subservient to a man.

I don't like the idea the viewer can kind of sit there and go, 'Make me like this person.' People aren't inherently sympathetic.

My brother is one of my true heroes. Steady and sober where I am impulsive and emotional.

A guy my size needs a tremendous amount of protein on a daily basis, just to maintain peak size, strength, and performance. Basically, that means six or seven small meals a day, so I depend on protein supplementation.

As far as I'm concerned, it's no good being able to wail out smokin' leads if your rhythm chops hugg!

Maturity is the art of living in peace with that which we cannot change.

I think it's very hard to find a good friend. That's why I'm so lucky to have two sisters, because they're my best friends, and they have to be with me forever. They're stuck with me.

Everybody has a high point and a lot goes into that: timing, situation, general consciousness.

The dramatic rise of Turkey in the councils of world power was one of the main geopolitical developments of 2010.

The point isn't to live without any regrets. The point is to not hate ourselves for having them.

A city whose living immediacy is so urgent that when I am in it I lose all sense of the past.

In Syria, a no-fly zone targeted at Assad's air force and safe zones for refugees fleeing the fighting would help tamp down the death toll that plays into the hands of ISIS and other Sunni militants who can position themselves as the only groups that are really defending the Sunni population.

I'm not a big Woody Allen fan, but thought 'Husbands and Wives' was great.

I think a lot of times when people play superheroes, they stick with this, 'I am a superhero,' but the truth is that we're all human, and that human quality is really important to bring.

Forget the floor plans. Arrange the furniture where it is the most comfortable and will look best.

In the '70s, the gay movement was really making strides. Huge strides. And then AIDS came along and slapped a judgment on it all and the Right Wing religious movement was like, 'See. This is why, we told you.' And it pushed back the movement 30 years.

I think the more you understand myths, the more you understand the roots of our culture and the more things will resonate. Do you have to know them? No, but certainly it is nice to recognise how deeply these things are embedded in our literature, our art.

I think we're all hooked, I feel my own hook-ness on immediate gratification you know. I want what I want.

I think the guys who are sort of infantry in Somali piracy are not unlike low-level drug dealers in urban areas in America, who see it as, you know, not having many other options. I think it comes down to money and needing to survive.

A lot of actors aren't particularly good directors. And they're not particularly good with other actors. That's kind of a fallacy.

The superior man is the providence of the inferior. He is eyes for the blind, strength for the weak, and a shield for the defenseless. He stands erect by bending above the fallen. He rises by lifting others.

If they don't think, people act senselessly.

I thought the '60s was the most exciting time and the most vital music, and we were really together as one mind then. Then afterwards, the songs and the bad drugs, that took its toll.
