Vision

Throughout the centuries there were men who took first steps, down new roads, armed with nothing but their own vision.
- Rand, Ayn
Vision Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Vision

1.
The kingdom of God could be realized simply by daring to live differently from the normal conventions. The kingdom of God in the teachings of Jesus was not an apocalyptic or heavenly projection of otherworldly desire. It was driven by a desire to think that there must be a better way to live together than the present state of affairs. And it called for a change of behavior in the present on the part of individuals invested in the vision.
Mack, Burton L.

2.
Envisioning the end is enough to put the means in motion.
Brande, Dorothea

3.
A vision without a task is but a dream. A task without a vision is drudgery. A vision with a task is the hope of the world.
Zimmerman, Donald

4.
Television is actually closer to reality than anything in books. The madness of TV is the madness of human life.
Paglia, Camille

5.
Television is an excellent system when one has nothing to lose, as is the case with a nomadic and rootless country like the United States, but in Europe the affect of television is that of a bulldozer which reduces culture to the lowest possible denominator.
Fumaroli, Marc

6.
The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring this endeavor will light our bounty and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
Kennedy, John F.

7.
If we had had the right technology back then, you would have seen Eva Braun on the Donahue show and Adolf Hitler on Meet the Press.
Turner, Ed

8.
In the theater, while you recognized that you were looking at a house, it was a house in quotation marks. On screen, the quotation marks tend to be blotted out by the camera.
Miller, Arthur

9.
Your successful past will block your visions of the future.
Barker, Joel A.

10.
There's a good deal in common between the mind's eye and the TV screen, and though the TV set has all too often been the boobtube, it could be, it can be, the box of dreams.
Guin, Ursula K. Le

11.
We do not need more intellectual power, we need more spiritual power. We do not need more of the things that are seen, we need more of the things that are unseen.
Coolidge, Calvin

12.
Television -- a medium. So called because it is neither rare nor well done.
Kovacs

13.
Yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision, but today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

14.
Sometimes, because of its immediacy, television produces a kind of electronic parable. Berlin, for instance, on the day the Wall was opened. Rostropovich was playing his cello by the Wall that no longer cast a shadow, and a million East Berliners were thronging to the West to shop with an allowance given them by West German banks! At that moment the whole world saw how materialism had lost its awesome historic power and become a shopping list.
Berger, John

15.
Dwell in though upon the Grandest, And the Grandest you shall see; Fix your mind upon the Highest, And the Highest you shall be.

16.
The business of a seer is to see; and if he involves himself in the kind of God-eclipsing activities which make seeing impossible, he betrays the trust which his fellows have tacitly placed in him.
Huxley, Aldous

17.
Already we Viewers, when not viewing, have begun to whisper to one another that the more we elaborate our means of communication, the less we communicate.
Priestley, J. B.

18.
Much of what passes for quality on British television is no more than a reflection of the narrow elite which controls it and has always thought that its tastes were synonymous with quality.
Murdoch, Rupert

19.
There are lone figures armed only with ideas, sometimes with just one idea, who blast away whole epochs in which we are enwrapped like mummies. Some are powerful enough to resurrect the dead. Some steal on us unawares and put a spell over us which it takes centuries to throw off. Some put a curse on us, for our stupidity and inertia, and then it seems as if God himself were unable to lift it.
Miller, Henry

20.
So shine on through these days we have to fill.
John, Elton

21.
When I think of vision, I have in mind the ability to see above and beyond the majority.
Swindoll, Charles

22.
It is the ultimate wisdom of the mountains that a man is never more a man than when he is striving for what is beyond his grasp.
Ullman, James Ramsey

23.
Television has lifted the manufacture of banality out of the sphere of handicraft and placed it in that of a major industry.
Sarraute, Nathalie

24.
A man to carry on a successful business must have imagination. He must see things as in a vision, a dream of the whole thing.
Schwab, Charles M.

25.
Television was not invented to make human beings vacuous, but is an emanation of their vacuity.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

26.
When the sun rises, do you not see a round disc of fire somewhat like a guinea? O no, no, I see an innumerable company of the heavenly host crying Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty.
Blake, William

27.
I have seen gleams in the face and eyes of the man that have let you look into a higher country.
Carlyle, Thomas

28.
Faith is the confidence, the assurance, the enforcing truth, the knowing...
Collier, Robert

29.
When you go to buy, use your eyes not your ears.
Proverb, Czech.

30.
To come to be you must have a vision of Being, a Dream, a Purpose, a Principle. You will become what your vision is.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio

31.
No man sees far, most see no farther than their noses.
Carlyle, Thomas

32.
Faith is power to believe and power to see...
Mulford, Prentice

33.
I have nothing new to teach the world. Truth and Non-violence are as old as the hills. All I have done is to try experiments in both on as vast a scale as I could.
Gandhi, Mahatma

34.
St. Teresa of Avila described our life in this world as like a night at a second-class hotel.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

35.
The riders in a race do not stop when they reach the goal. There is a little finishing canter before coming to a standstill. There is time to hear the kind voices of friends and say to oneself, The work is done.
Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

36.
Objects close to the eye shut out much larger objects on the horizon; and splendors born only of the earth eclipse the stars. So it is with people who sometimes cover up the entire disc of eternity with a dollar, and so quench transcendent glories with a little shining dust.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel

37.
A three -- to four -- to five-hour experience with nothingness.
Glezer, Frederic

38.
Only he who can see the invisible can do the impossible.
Gaines, Frank

39.
Makers of empire, they have fought for bigger things than crowns and higher seats than thrones.
Kaufman, Herbert

40.
Television is an invention that permits you to be entertained in your Living room by people you wouldn't have in your house.
Frost, David

41.
I find television very educational. Every time someone switches it on I go into another room and read a good book.
Marx, Groucho

42.
There is nothing more mysterious than a TV set left on in an empty room. It is even stranger than a man talking to himself or a woman standing dreaming at her stove. It is as if another planet is communicating with you.
Baudrillard, Jean

43.
The world values the seer above all men, and has always done so. Nay, it values all men in proportion as they partake of the character of seers. The Elgin Marbles and a decision of John Marshall are valued for the same reason. What we feel in them is a painstaking submission to facts beyond the author's control, and to ideas imposed upon him by his vision. So with Beethoven's Symphonies, with Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations -- with any conceivable output of the human mind of which you approve. You love them because you say, These things were not made, they were seen.
Chapman, John Jay

44.
Perhaps our eyes are merely a blank film which is taken from us after our deaths to be developed elsewhere and screened as our life story in some infernal cinema or dispatched as microfilm into the sidereal void.
Baudrillard, Jean

45.
Build it and they will come!
Movie, Fields Of Dreams

46.
Watching old movies is like spending an evening with those people next door. They bore us, and we wouldn't go out of our way to see them; we drop in on them because they're so close. If it took some effort to see old movies, we might try to find out which were the good ones, and if people saw only the good ones maybe they would still respect old movies. As it is, people sit and watch movies that audiences walked out on thirty years ago. Like Lot's wife, we are tempted to take another look, attracted not by evil but by something that seems much more shameful -- our own innocence.
Kael, Pauline

47.
Three people were at work on a construction site. All were doing the same job, but when each was asked what the job was, the answers varied. Breaking rocks, the first replied. Earning my living, the second said. Helping to build a cathedral, said the third.
Schultz, Peter

48.
Cherish you visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blue prints of your ultimate achievements.
Hill, Napoleon

49.
Its marvelous what you can see when you open your eyes.

50.
The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn't there something reassuring about it! -- that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another's eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms -- nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?
Oates, Joyce Carol
