Best Quotes about Ideas

1.
Do not follow the ideas of others, but learn to listen to the voice within yourself. Your body and mind will become clear and you will realize the unity of all things.
Dogen

2.
Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale. Everything can be had so dirt cheap that one begins to wander whether in the end anyone will want to make a bid.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

3.
Concepts, like individuals, have their histories and are just as incapable of withstanding the ravages of time as are individuals. But in and through all this they retain a kind of homesickness for the scenes of their childhood.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

4.
The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.
Keynes, John Maynard

5.
I had a monumental idea this morning, but I didn't like it.
Samuel Goldwyn

6.
Little words hurt big ideas.
Newton, Howard W.

7.
Our greatest lack is not money for any undertaking, but rather ideas, If the ideas are good, cash will somehow flow to where it is needed.
Schuller, Robert H.

8.
Man's fear of ideas is probably the greatest dike holding back human knowledge and happiness.
Ernst, Morris L.

9.
To have a great idea, have a lot of them.
Edison, Thomas A.

10.
Go out and buy yourself a five-cent pencil and a ten-cent notebook and begin to write down some million-dollar ideas for yourself.
Grinde, Bob

11.
Ideals are like stars: you will not succeed in touching them with your hands, but like the seafaring man on the ocean desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them, you reach your destiny.
Carl Schurz

12.
Greater than the tread of mighty armies is an idea whose time has come.
Hugo, Victor

13.
Mere words are cheap and plenty enough, but ideas that rouse and set multitudes thinking come as gold for the mines.
Penny, A. Owen

14.
If you want to get across an idea, wrap it up in a person.
Bunche, Ralph

15.
Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

16.
Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.
John Steinbeck

17.
An idea is not responsible for the people who believe in it.
Marquis, Don

18.
Some people entertain ideas; others put them to work.

19.
The idea that is not dangerous is not worthy of being called an idea at all.
Hubbard, Elbert

20.
You have to hatch ideas -- and then hitch them.
Everson, Ray D.

21.
Labor gives birth to ideas.
Rohn, Jim

22.
An idea is the only level which moves the world.
Corey, Arthur F.

23.
Many ideas are good for a limited time -- not forever.
Townsend, Robert

24.
Every new idea is an impossibility until it is born.
Brown, Ron

25.
An idea is a feat of association, and the height of it is a good metaphor.
Frost, Robert

26.
A good idea plus capable men cannot fail; it is better than money in the bank.
Berry, John

27.
A handsome parson is fit for nothing but ti put ideas into the young woman's heads.
Judith Brocklehurst

28.
In Texas, years ago, almost all of the oil came from surface operations. Then someone got the idea that there were greater sources of supply deeper down. A well was drilled five thousand feet deep. The result? A gusher. Too many of us operate on the surface. We never go deep enough to find supernatural resources. The result is, we never operate at our best. More time and investment is involved to go deep but a gusher will pay off.
Montapert, Alfred A.

29.
I'm not impressed with the power of a corporate president. I am impressed with the power of ideas.
Mason, Ken

30.
There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than politicians think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.
Foucault, Michel

31.
We are governed not by armies, but by ideas.
Caird, Mona

32.
It is by acts and not by ideas that people live.
Anatole France

33.
Ideas are powerful things, requiring not a studious contemplation but an action, even if it is only an inner action. Their acquisition obligates each man in some way to change his life, even if it is only his inner life. They demand to be stood for. They dictate where a man must concentrate his vision. They determine his moral and intellectual priorities. They provide him with allies and make him enemies. In short, ideas impose an interest in their ultimate fate which goes far beyond the realm of the merely reasonable.
Decter, Midge

34.
Ideas control the world.
Garfield, James A.

35.
A new idea is first condemned as ridiculous and then dismissed as trivial, until finally, it becomes what everybody knows.
James, William

36.
Ideas that enter the mind under fire remain there securely and for ever.
Trotsky, Leon

37.
Ideas are the roots of creation.
Dimnet, Ernest

38.
Nothing is more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one.
Chartier, Alain

39.
If you want to kill any idea in the world today, get a committee working on it.
Kettering, Charles F.

40.
So long as new ideas are created, sales will continue to reach new highs.
Brande, Dorothea

41.
It is not always by plugging away at a difficulty and sticking to it that one overcomes it; often it is by working on the one next to it. Some things and some people have to be approached obliquely, at an angle.
Gide, Andre

42.
Ideas are invented only as correctives to the past. Through repeated rectification of this kind one may hope to disengage an idea that is valid.
Bachelard, Gaston

43.
Nothing dies harder than a bad idea.
Cameron, Julie

44.
Very simple ideas lie within the reach only of complex minds
Gourmont, Remy De

45.
A mind once stretched by a new idea never regains its original dimensions.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

46.
If you have the same ideas as everybody else but have them one week earlier than everyone else then you will be hailed as a visionary. But if you have them five years earlier you will be named a lunatic.
Jones, Barry

47.
Brain cells create ideas. Stress kills brain cells. Stress is not a good idea.
Saunders, Richard

48.
Think for thyself one good idea, but known to be thine own, is better than a thousand gleaned from fields by others sown.
Wilson, Alexander

49.
Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

50.
The human mind treats a new idea the same way the body treats a strange protein; it rejects it.
P. B. Medawar
