Men are liars. We'll lie about lying if we have to. I'm an algebra liar. I figure two good lies make a positive.

It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.
Just an observation: it is impossible to be both grateful and depressed. Those with a grateful mindset tend to see the message in the mess. And even though life may knock them down, the grateful find reasons, if even small ones, to get up.
You can observe a lot by watching.
Not observation of a duty but liberty itself is the pledge that assures fidelity.
You know my method. It is founded upon the observation of trifles.
I always know what's happening on the court. I see a situation occur, and I respond.
Reason, observation, and experience; the holy trinity of science.
There's certainly nothing original about the observation that conscious experience poses a hard problem.
My mother moved abroad when I was 11, my dad wasn't around from the time that I was a baby, so I was not the product of a family, but a product of observation - of watching what went on around me, of watching who I liked, what I didn't like, what I thought was good behavior and what I thought was bad behavior and tailoring myself accordingly.
To perceive is to suffer.
If we spoke a different language, we would perceive a somewhat different world.
You are only as wise as others perceive you to be.

You don’t see something until you have the right metaphor to let you perceive it

The world we see that seems so insane is the result of a belief system that is not working. To perceive the world differently, we must be willing to change our belief system, let the past slip away, expand our sense of now, and dissolve the fear in our minds.
It takes these very simple-minded instructions - 'Go fetch a number, add it to this number, put the result there, perceive if it's greater than this other number' - but executes them at a rate of, let's say, 1,000,000 per second. At 1,000,000 per second, the results appear to be magic.
For them to perceive the advantage of defeating the enemy, they must also have their rewards.
You never get to pick how you get pinned and how people perceive you.
I'm not intimidated by how people perceive me.
The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest minds of past centuries.
Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.
Our own limitations are those we set up in our own minds.
Great minds have purposes, little minds have wishes.
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Some minds are like concrete, all mixed up and permanently set.
Not all those who know their minds know their hearts as well.
Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.
I say there're no depressed words just depressed minds.
Great minds must be ready not only to take opportunities, but to make them.
People always complain about their memories, never about their minds.
Curiosity is, in great and generous minds, the first passion and the last.
