I am persuaded, that if any attempt is made to improve the education of the poor, and such an unmanly spirit should guide the resolution of a society or committee for that purpose, it would render the design abortive.

Quotes by Joseph Lancaster

No one can pigeon-hole me because I play everything, and I did that on purpose.

Quotes by Jose Feliciano

I like using traditional beliefs in my fantasies, even though I always end up warping them to suit my purpose: it somehow makes everything feel more 'solid' if it's got a long history behind it.

Quotes by Jonathan Stroud

It has always been clear that The Washington Post is a company that is set up for the purpose of protecting the long-term interests of its assets and held together as a holding company.

Quotes by Jonathan Grayer

Simplicity is not the absence of clutter, that's a consequence of simplicity. Simplicity is somehow essentially describing the purpose and place of an object and product. The absence of clutter is just a clutter-free product. That's not simple.

Quotes by Jonathan Ive

Carole King's second album, 'Tapestry,' has fulfilled the promise of her first and confirmed the fact that she is one of the most creative figures in all of pop music. It is an album of surpassing personal-intimacy and musical accomplishment and a work infused with a sense of artistic purpose. It is also easy to listen to and easy to enjoy.

Quotes by Jon Landau

We look for meaning and purpose; children bring that.

Quotes by Johnathon Schaech

Quotes by John Walters

Happiness comes when we test our skills towards some meaningful purpose.

Quotes by John Stossel

The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not sufficient warrant.

Quotes by John Stuart Mill

We have these rules, the 'hero rules.' Like, a hero doesn't slouch. A hero walks proudly with his head up. A hero walks with a purpose. A hero's always a gentleman.

Quotes by John Singleton

It is a relatively small number of people who want to impose their will by the use of terror on the rest of civilization, who have got a program. It's not blind violence. It's with a purpose. They want to destroy the state of Israel. They want every westerner out of the Arab countries, Middle East and elsewhere.

Quotes by John Reid

It was the special purpose of Christ's appearance upon earth to bring immortality to light.

Quotes by John Quincy Adams

They seem to have forgotten that, and are back saying the only purpose of P2P networks is for illegal trading of owned goods. We claim part of the reason for P2P is for legal trading of what ought to be in public domain. And what is in public domain in many cases.

Quotes by John Perry Barlow

The choice that you, as a Soul, have in relation to anything is always to be loving. Do you understand that this is the divine purpose that all of us as humans have been given - to love unconditionally?

Quotes by John Higgins

Comey worried that the pressure from Trump to end the Flynn investigation or remove the 'cloud' of the larger investigation would 'infect' the investigation if he let others working on the case know about it.

Quotes by John Dickerson

The purpose of this study is to offer a logical, practical, pragmatic proof of the existence of God from a purely scientific perspective.

Quotes by John Clayton

Is fame without purpose and is fame without talent really where we are now? People used to be famous for what they did. Now, they're just famous.

Quotes by John Carroll Lynch

The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all. This puts one in accord with nature, in her manner of operation.

Quotes by John Cage

That was the miracle of Abraham Lincoln, politician. He pursued the high purpose of moving justice forward via the low arts of patronage and patronization. Indeed, in a democracy, it is usually the only way great deeds are done.

Quotes by Joe Klein

It's about more than making money; it's about connecting people in countries all around the world. Our social mission is to get people meeting each other, and we need people who align with that purpose.

Quotes by Joe Gebbia

'The Count' wasn't a real stretch. I was doing pretty generic Bela Lugosi bad vampire on purpose. It was supposed to be lame. I didn't put fangs on; it was a guy who was just going through the motions. I drew on the widow's peak with eyebrow pencil and wore a turtleneck, not a tux.

Quotes by Joe Flaherty

The purpose of The Motherhood Manifesto is mothers really need to be given the ability to parent.

Quotes by Joan Blades

Quotes by Jim Ramstad

There are some terrorist organizations, there are some organized crime organizations, that launder money through charities and make donations to charities. That's not the purpose of charitable donations in Canada, so we're becoming increasingly strict on the subject.

Quotes by Jim Flaherty

All the charges you enumerate have been made with one purpose in mind-to place our office on the defensive and make us waste valuable time answering allegations that have no basis in fact.

Quotes by Jim Garrison

The Lord has done what I wanted Him to do this week. I wanted, primarily, peace about going into pioneer Indian work. And as I analyze my feelings now, I feel quite at ease about saying that tribal work in South American jungles is the general direction of my missionary purpose.

Quotes by Jim Elliot

I think each artist lives with purpose. A strong sense of purpose. We know who's come before us.

Quotes by Jidenna

Quotes by Jerry Jeff Walker

Everyone is looking for a purpose in life. The reason we all go to the cinema or online is because we haven't found a purpose yet. We are always wondering why we're here. But I've learned that we have to create that purpose for ourselves.

Quotes by Jerome Jarre

My purpose, which I finally found thanks to social media, is helping all of these people find their purpose.

Quotes by Jerome Jarre

I do everything with a purpose, and I don't really pay attention to the negativity.

Quotes by Jermaine Fowler

One's teachers all belonged to that generation who were imperialists, and the whole narrative throughout my adolescence was of countries leaving the empire. I find it extraordinary that this purpose which drove how we viewed the world is now considered to be something that has no effect upon us.

Quotes by Jeremy Paxman

I find it extraordinary that this purpose which drove how we viewed the world is now considered to be something that has no effect upon us.

Quotes by Jeremy Corbyn

Building up an organisation is like starting a social movement. At the center of everything is the core team. I have the honor of working with some phenomenal people at Purpose who are at the top of their fields. That energy and common purpose among the team is what inspires me and where the magic happens.

Quotes by Jeremy Heimans

Before we had the Internet, I organized a fax campaign against the first Iraq war. We blasted faxes to the hotel where James Baker and Tariq Aziz were having their final meeting before the two sides went to war. Much more recently, I co-founded Avaaz and Get Up, which inspired the creation of Purpose.

Quotes by Jeremy Heimans

My aim is for every song to have a purpose - for you to be able to say, 'This song is about this.' But love and heartbreak are some of the most abstract subjects.

Quotes by Jens Lekman

I struggled with a lot of doubts around my songwriting and around what I was and what my purpose and mission were.

Quotes by Jens Lekman

All my stories were usually titled, 'White House Says,' 'President Bush Wants,' and I relied on transcripts from the briefings. I relied on press releases that were sent to the press for the purpose of accurately portraying what the White House believed or wanted.

Quotes by Jeff Gannon

There was a time when I stopped singing, between 16 and 19, but that was done on purpose, maybe as a punishment, maybe as a cure.

Quotes by Jeff Buckley

An application of judicial power that does not rest on facts is worse than mindless, it is inherently dangerous. If its deployment does not rest on facts - cold, hard, solid facts, established either by admissions or by trials - it serves no lawful or moral purpose and is simply an engine of oppression.

Quotes by Jed S. Rakoff

Our lives are programmed at conception and are endowed with purpose and meaning.

Quotes by Jeane Dixon

A good comedy with a purpose behind it is exhilarating.

Quotes by Jason Mantzoukas

I don't belong to any clubs, and I dislike club mentality of any kind, even feminism - although I do relate to the purpose and point of feminism. More in the work of older feminists, really, like Germaine Greer.

Quotes by Jane Campion

My one purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others.

Quotes by Jamie Zawinski

The wit makes fun of other persons; the satirist makes fun of the world; the humorist makes fun of himself, but in so doing, he identifies himself with people - that is, people everywhere, not for the purpose of taking them apart, but simply revealing their true nature.

Quotes by James Thurber

Profit is not the legitimate purpose of business. The legitimate purpose of business is to provide a product or service that people need and do it so well that it's profitable.

Quotes by James Rouse

For many years, I have lived uncomfortably with the belief that most planning and architectural design suffers for lack of real and basic purpose. The ultimate purpose, it seems to me, must be the improvement of mankind.

Quotes by James Rouse

There are at least two kinds of games. One could be called finite, the other, infinite. A finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play.

Quotes by James P. Carse

The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries.

Quotes by James Madison

It would seem, therefore, that this constitutional safeguard may no longer serve its original purpose, especially when, as we learned last year, some acts of perjury may now be acceptable - in this world, at least, if not the next.

Quotes by James L. Buckley

There are very few movies in English about romantic obsession told with a seriousness of purpose.

Quotes by James Gray

Party leads to vicious, corrupt and unprofitable legislation, for the sole purpose of defeating party.

Quotes by James Fenimore Cooper

Rhyme is a mnemonic device, an aid to the memory. And some poems are themselves mnemonics, that is to say, the whole purpose of the poem is to enable us to remember some information.

Quotes by James Fenton

The priesthood of God is a shield. It is a shield against the evils of the world. That shield needs to be kept clean; otherwise, our vision of our purpose and the dangers around us will be limited.

Quotes by James E. Faust

To begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment.

Quotes by James Allen

Above all be of single aim; have a legitimate and useful purpose, and devote yourself unreservedly to it.

Quotes by James Allen

I understand that most iPhone users want a phone that can do other nifty things, not a general purpose computer that happens to make phone calls. Strict control over apps minimizes the chances that someone will find their phone hacked or virus-laden.

Quotes by Jamais Cascio

Marvel, I think, on purpose, they don't tell me certain things. Because they know I'll be like, 'So here's what's gonna happen.' But I do know I will be in 'Thor 3' and that Sif will have a very pivotal part in that movie.

Quotes by Jaimie Alexander

Conserving fuel is fine, and it was great in the past. The problem is that the drivers don't have to do it. It's all done electronically. You sit there, and it saves fuel for you, and that defeats the purpose.

Quotes by Jacques Villeneuve

The purpose of life is to explore one's own life to its fullest, to explore all dimensions.

Quotes by Jaggi Vasudev

Psychoanalysis is a terribly efficient instrument, and because it is more and more a prestigious instrument, we run the risk of using it with a purpose for which it was not made for, and in this way we may degrade it.

Quotes by Jacques Lacan

The Confederacy was formed for the purpose of seceding from the Union because those states could not part with their rights to own slaves.

Quotes by Jack Schlossberg

Jack London

I got to a point when I was 20 that I dropped out of university because I felt I didn't have any purpose, and I wanted to find a fire in me.

Quotes by Jack Garratt

I have always argued that newspapers should not have any civic purpose beyond telling readers what is happening... A reporter who doesn't quickly tell readers what they most want to know - the score - won't last long. Better he should teach political science.

Quotes by Jack Germond

We're all so mauled by information, but it's recycled information. We need to shut it out. So, you've got to get bizarre. This is an artist's purpose - to break away from the recycled. Performance art can do that.

Quotes by Jack Bowman

You don't win without talent, but your talent has to have purpose.

Quotes by J. B. Bickerstaff

The purpose - where I start - is the idea of use. It is not recycling, it's reuse.

Quotes by Issey Miyake

A man of real purpose puts his faith in himself always. Sometimes he refuses even to put his faith in the gods. So from time to time, he falls into error.

Quotes by Isoroku Yamamoto

The Greeks already understood that there was more interest in portraying an unusual character than a usual character - that is the purpose of films and theatre.

Quotes by Isabelle Huppert

Every novelist has a different purpose - and often several purposes which might even be contradictory.

Quotes by Irwin Shaw

It's a matter of pride to me to get the film done fast, to get it done well. I understand the need for compromise. There is no such thing as a perfect shot, a perfect film. The purpose of film is not to make a monument to oneself.

Quotes by Irvin Kershner

Where radio is different than fiction is that even mediocre fiction needs purpose, a driving question.

Quotes by Ira Glass

A categorical imperative would be one which represented an action as objectively necessary in itself, without reference to any other purpose.

Quotes by Immanuel Kant

I'd dropped out of high school without really doing it on purpose - I'd just go home at lunch 'cos I didn't have friends, then stay there all afternoon listening to rap. It got to the point where I wouldn't have passed even if I'd gone back. I was depressed, basically.

Quotes by Iggy Azalea

Music is given to us with the sole purpose of establishing an order in things, including, and particularly, the coordination between man and time.

Quotes by Igor Stravinsky

I think there's something about having a purpose in life and a sense of belonging that is more important than money for any human being.

Quotes by Ian Gillan

In my view, far from deserving condemnation for their courageous reporting, the New York Times, the Washington Post and other newspapers should be commended for serving the purpose that the Founding Fathers saw so clearly.

Quotes by Hugo Black

It is the paradox of life that the way to miss pleasure is to seek it first. The very first condition of lasting happiness is that a life should be full of purpose, aiming at something outside self.

Quotes by Hugo Black

I realized that my purpose really is to inspire people.

Quotes by Huda Kattan

Each player, it will be observed, has eight superior Pieces or officers, and eight minor ones which are called Pawns; and, for the purpose of distinction, the Pieces and Pawns of one party are of a different color from those of the other.
