Opinions

It is not best that we should all think alike; it is a difference of opinion that makes horse races.
- Twain, Mark
Opinions Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Opinions

1.
It takes a very deep-rooted opinion to survive unexpressed.
Rostand, Jean

2.
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

3.
It rarely adds anything to say, In my opinion --not even modesty. Naturally a sentence is only your opinion; and you are not the Pope.
Goodman, Paul

4.
Law is nothing unless close behind it stands a warm, living public opinion.
Phillips, Wendell

5.
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

6.
Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance.
Plato

7.
I'm not sure I want popular opinion on my side -- I've noticed those with the most opinions often have the fewest facts.
Bethania McKenstry

8.
The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind.
Blake, William

9.
A difference of opinion is what makes horse racing and missionaries.
Rogers, Will

10.
It is much easier to modify an opinion if one has not already persuasively declared it.
Souter, David H.

11.
To find out your real opinion of someone, judge the impression you have when you first see a letter from them.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

12.
We credit scarcely any persons with good sense except those who are of our opinion.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

13.
Don't be swayed just because they say it's public opinion. Remember, public opinion is simple what everybody else thinks.

14.
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

15.
There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion.
Churchill, Winston

16.
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

17.
The foolish and the dead never change their opinions.
Lowell, James Russell

18.
A study of the history of opinion is a necessary preliminary to the emancipation of the mind.
Keynes, John Maynard

19.
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.

20.
No one can have a higher opinion of him than I have; and I think he's a dirty little beast.
Gilbert, W. S.

21.
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

22.
The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.
Mill, John Stuart

23.
Opinions are made to be changed --or how is truth to be got at?
Byron, Lord

24.
Call your opinions your creed, and you will change them every week. Make your creed simply and broadly out of the revelation of God, and you will keep it to the end.
Brooks, Phillips

25.
A man who trims himself to suit everybody will soon whittle himself away.
Schwab, Charles M.

26.
I want to find someone on the earth so intelligent that he welcomes opinions which he condemns.
Chapman, John Jay

27.
Altered opinions do not alter a man's character (or do so very little); but they do illuminate individual aspects of the constellation of his personality which with a different constellation of opinions had hitherto remained dark and unrecognizable.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

28.
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

29.
Opinion is the main thing which does harm or good in the world. It is our false opinions that ruin us.
Antonius, Marcus

30.
Stay at home in your mind. Don't recite other people's opinions. I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

31.
A public opinion poll is no substitute for thought.
Buffett, Warren

32.
Private opinion is weak, but public opinion is almost omnipotent.
Beecher, Henry Ward

33.
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

34.
False opinions are like false money, struck first of all by guilty men and thereafter circulated by honest people who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.
Maistre, Joseph De

35.
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

36.
It's not that I don't have opinions, rather that I'm paid not to think aloud.
Navon, Yitzhak

37.
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

38.
Under the species of Syndicalism and Fascism there appears for the first time in Europe a type of man who does not want to give reasons or to be right, but simply shows himself resolved to impose his opinions.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

39.
What you think of me is none of my business.
Cole-Whittaker, Terry

40.
He that never changes his opinion never corrects mistakes and will never be wiser on the morrow than he is today.
Edwards, Tryon

41.
Do not seek the truth, only cease to cherish your opinions.
Saying, Zen

42.
Opinions, like showers, are generated in high places, but they invariably descend into lower ones, and ultimately flow down to the people as rain unto the sea.
Colton, Charles Caleb

43.
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

44.
Self-actualized people are independent of the good opinion of others.
Dyer, Wayne

45.
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

46.
I agree with no one's opinion. I have some of my own.
Turgenev, Ivan

47.
Men get opinions as boys learn to spell by reiteration chiefly.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

48.
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

49.
Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others.
Virginia Woolf

50.
Nothing is more conducive to peace of mind than not having any opinions at all.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
