Best Quotes about Opinions
Public opinion, a vulgar, impertinent, anonymous tyrant who deliberately makes life unpleasant for anyone who is not content to the average person.
Inge, Dean William R.
The recipe for perpetual ignorance is: be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge.
Elbert Hubbard
When anyone tells me I can't do anything... I'm just not listening any more.
Griffith-Joyner, Florence
Things are not to be judged good or bad merely because the public think so.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius
I have opinions of my own -- strong opinions -- but I don't always agree with them.
George Bush
It is much easier to break the rules when one s surrounded by strangers. One does not know any of them, so one cannot really care for their opinion.
Monica Fairview
There never was in the world two opinions alike, no more than two hairs or two grains. The most universal quality is diversity.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
A study of the history of opinion is a necessary preliminary to the emancipation of the mind.
Keynes, John Maynard
No two men see the world exactly alike, and different temperaments will apply in different ways a principle that they both acknowledge. The same man will, indeed, often see and judge the same things differently on different occasions: early convictions must give way to more mature ones. Nevertheless, may not the opinions that a man holds and expresses withstand all trials, if he only remains true to himself and others?
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Public opinion is held in reverence. It settles everything. Some think it is the voice of God.
Twain, Mark
Do not seek the truth, only cease to cherish your opinions.
Saying, Zen
We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence; like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away.
Chuang Tzu
Opinions are formed in a process of open discussion and public debate, and where no opportunity for the forming of opinions exists, there may be moods --moods of the masses and moods of individuals, the latter no less fickle and unreliable than the former --but no opinion.
Arendt, Hannah
It takes a very deep-rooted opinion to survive unexpressed.
Rostand, Jean
It's not that I don't have opinions, rather that I'm paid not to think aloud.
Navon, Yitzhak
Sane and intelligent human beings are like all other human beings, and carefully and cautiously and diligently conceal their private real opinions from the world and give out fictitious ones in their stead for general consumption.
Mark Twain
I think we ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt. I shouldn't wish people dogmatically to believe any philosophy, not even mine.
Bertrand Russell
A mass of men equals a mass of opinions.
Webster, Daniel
It is much easier to modify an opinion if one has not already persuasively declared it.
Souter, David H.
Our opinions do not really blossom into fruition until we have expressed them to someone else.
Mark Twain
It is not advisable, James, to venture unsolicited opinions. You should spare yourself the embarrassing discovery of their exact value to your listener.
Ayn Rand
It is always brave to say what everyone thinks.
Duhamel, George
There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion.
Churchill, Winston
The important thing is not what they think of me, but what I think of them.
Victoria, Queen
A point of view can be a dangerous luxury when substituted for insight and understanding.
Mcluhan, Marshall
People will in a great degree, and not without reason, form their opinion of you by that they have of your friends, as, says the
Proverb, Spanish
The only sin that we never forgive in each other is a difference in opinion.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Private opinion is weak, but public opinion is almost omnipotent.
Beecher, Henry Ward
I agree with no one's opinion. I have some of my own.
Turgenev, Ivan
We would not let ourselves be burned to death for our opinions: we are not sure enough of them for that. But perhaps for the right to have our opinions and to change them.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
The average man's opinions are generally of more value to himself than to anyone else.
Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance.
Plato
Hardly a man in the world has an opinion upon morals, politics or religion which he got otherwise than through his associations and sympathies. Broadly speaking, there are none but corn-pone opinions. And broadly speaking, Corn-Pone stands for Self-Approval. Self-approval is acquired mainly from the approval of other people. The result is Conformity.
Twain, Mark
A difference of opinion is what makes horse racing and missionaries.
Rogers, Will
Man is a gregarious animal and much more so in his mind than in his body. A golden rule; judge men not by their opinions but by what their opinions have made of them.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
You are young, my son, and, as the years go by, time will change and even reverse many of your present opinions. Refrain therefore awhile from setting yourself up as a judge of the highest matters.
Plato
Opinions are made to be changed --or how is truth to be got at?
Byron, Lord
Opinions are to the vast apparatus of social existence what oil is to machines: one does not go up to a turbine and pour machine oil over it; one applies a little to hidden spindles and joints that one has to know.
Benjamin, Walter
When men exercise their reason coolly and freely on a variety of distinct questions, they inevitably fall into different opinions on some of them. When they are governed by a common passion, their opinions, if they are to be called, will be the same.
Alexander Hamilton
The opinion prevailed among advanced minds that it was time that belief should be replaced increasingly by knowledge; belief that did not itself rest on knowledge was superstition, and as such had to be opposed.
Einstein, Albert
My play was a complete success. The audience was a failure.
Don't judge a man by his opinions, but what his opinions have made of him.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
We credit scarcely any persons with good sense except those who are of our opinion.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
You're entitled to your own opinions. Your are not entitled to your own facts.
The feeble tremble before opinion, the foolish defy it, the wise judge it, and the skillful direct it.
Platiere, Jeane
Opinion is the main thing which does harm or good in the world. It is our false opinions that ruin us.
Antonius, Marcus
To try and change opinion by law is worse than futile.
Buckle, George Earle
I used to look down on the world for being corrupt, but now I adore it for the utter magnificence of that corruption.
Needham, Richard J.
Every man has a right to be wrong in his opinions. But no man has a right to be wrong in his facts.
Baruch, Bernard M.
Nothing is more conducive to peace of mind than not having any opinions at all.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
