aim to use intuitions as evidence

could be said for observation Intuitions are not wholly reliable, but also in the fact that we know so little about them

intuition is an expression of tacit knowledge.

intuition’s primary role is to understand or apprehend the salient features of a case – in the form of a judgement – and a secondary (indirect) role as evidence for or against philosophical theories.

a revival of the use of intuitions was prompted by Chomsky’s linguistics

a spontaneous judgement

You see, with me, when I'm nervous, I smile and laugh.

Texas has yet to learn submission to any oppression, come from what source it may.

We believe that every single child has boundless promise, no matter who they are, where they come from, or how much money their parents have. We've got to remember that. We believe that each of these young people is a vital part of the great American story.

You cannot save time for future use, but you can invest it for the future!

As always, we start off with asking, 'What's a good episode?' We don't think about timing, and we don't think about logistics. We just think about what would be good.

When I'm at home I practice everyday.

Sometimes we see the Civil War in movies and imagine these neatly aligned rows of men with muskets, walking in line to shoot each other. In reality the things that fascinated me were how absolutely ruthless and violent so many engagements were, how much suffering and how men were not prepared.

I would have to say I've been on the 'Opry' at least 30-35-40 times a year for... 51-52 years.

Things that I consider bad qualities, I always try and figure out where they are coming from. I don't consider ambition to be a bad one. It's served me very well in my life. Very well.

Well, even to this day, if I smell a Big Mac, I'm like Pavlov's dog. My mouth starts watering immediately, like, 'Man, that is so good,' but I can't take a bite of it.

It is not enough just to wish well; we must also do well.

Computer science education cannot make anybody an expert programmer any more than studying brushes and pigment can make somebody an expert painter.

And finally Winter, with its bitin', whinin' wind, and all the land will be mantled with snow.

Whether one welcomes or deplores it, nothing is more surely and exactly characteristic of modern times than the irresistible invasion of the human world by technology. Mechanism invading like a tide all the places of the earth and all forms of social activity.

One of the great pleasures of having children is spending one-on-one time with them. Sadly, I could do that for only a few minutes at a time. I'd never say that ADD/ADHD is a gift or a blessing. And if someone says it is a gift, I'd love to return it.

To control the breathing is to control the mind. With different patterns of breathing, you can fall in love, you can hate someone, you can feel the whole spectrum of feelings just by changing your breathing.

No matter where you are or where you grow up, you always go through the same awkward moments of being a teenager and growing up and trying to figure out who you are.

It wasn't until my senior year in high school that I started acting.

Prior to that, I had associated this music with older people, like my father.

I don't really plan. I just see what happens.

I made three films with Douglas, two with Charles Boyer.

Sometimes people will come up in the street and say: 'My daughter loves you, will you sign an autograph for her?' And some people send me stuff. I don't mind it at all: as a sportswoman, you owe them because they support you.

No, I'm not very productive at all. I'm probably like an animal. I mean, great animals in the ocean feed all the time. I'm someone who procrastinates, worries, for most of a month, and then I'll have a flurry of manic productivity with a sense of great urgency and fear for, like, two days.

You know, it is a terrible thing to appear on television, because people think that you actually know what you're talking about.
