Well, it all comes to this, there's no use trying to live in other people's opinions. The only thing to do is to live in our own.
L.M. Montgomery
The trouble is that many people regard disagreement as unrelated to either teaching or being taught. They think that everything is just a matter of opinion. I have mine, and you have yours; and our right to our opinions is as inviolable as our right to private property. On such a view, communication cannot be profitable if the profit to be gained is an increase in knowledge. Conversation is hardly better than a ping-pong game of opposed opinions, a game in which no one keeps score, no one wins, and everyone is satisfied because he does not lose - that is, he ends up holding the same opinions he started with.
Mortimer J. Adler
There are opinions and then there are opinions...behold the nature of mankind.
Will Leamon
One day you'll discover that the opinions of worthless people are worthless.
Piers Anthony
The worst time to give someone your opinion, is when no one has asked for it.
Cory Stallworth
The opinions of others should not deter you from being yourself..
Lailah Gifty Akita
Don't let other people's opinions distort your reality. Be true to yourself. Be bold in pursuing your dreams. Be unapologetically you!
Steve Maraboli
If differences can be hidden, perhaps there aren't differences at all
Mohsin Hamid
The value of an opinion is only measured by its user. It's ironic that the value of a fact is only measured by its observer.
Lionel Suggs
The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinion.
Arnold H. Glasow
It is easier to align our opinions with facts, than it is to align facts with our opinions.
Justin K. McFarlane Beau
I am not one of those who in expressing opinions confine themselves to facts.
Mark Twain
Let them judge you.Let them misunderstand you.Let them gossip about you.Their opinions aren’t your problem.You stay kind, committed to love, and free in your authenticity.No matter what they do or say,don’t you dare doubt your worthor the beauty of your truth.Just keep on shining like you do.
Scott Stabile
I have learned that trying to control other people’s opinions of you is the fastest possible route to unhappiness.
Dan Pearce
I may be wrong in regard to any or all of them; but holding it a sound maxim, that it is better to be only sometimes right, than at all times wrong, so soon as I discover my opinions to be erroneous, I shall be ready to renounce them.
Abraham Lincoln
Everybody is wrong about everything, just about all the time.
Chuck Klosterman
She was a woman who lived however she wished without care for another, without putting the needs of those around her before her own selfish opinions. We are breeding a nation of such thinkers and individuals--intent on personal expression at all costs--and that will lead to war. I might be more a successful writer if I did not seek to address human truth, but rather spewed out my own limited opinions without care for reader or critic or any kind of propriety.
Erika Robuck
There is no need, in order to explain three-quarters of the opinions held about people, to go so far as a love that has been spurned or an exclusion from political power. Our judgment remains unsure: an invitation refused or received determines it.
Marcel Proust
Don't judge a man by his opinions, but what his opinions have made of him.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
There was a time when we used to have opinions, just humble opinions. Now everything seems to be a question of life and death. We defend, we abuse, we call names, we shout....is it because every idiot in town suddenly found a voice through social media or are intelligent people getting dumber trying to defend arguments which an idiot won't understand. I don't belong to either so I just wonder...
EverSkeptic
He was a passionate adherent of the new ideas and of Speransky, and the busiest purveyor of news in Petersburg, one of those men who choose their opinions like their clothes—according to the fashion—but for that very reason seem the most vehement partisans
Leo Tolstoy
We don't get harmony when everybody sings the same note. Only notes that are different can harmonize. The same is true with people.
Steve Goodier
That our selves and all men are apt and prone to differ it is no new Thing in all former Ages in all parts of this World in these parts and in our deare native Countrey and mournfull state of England.That either part or partie is most right in his owne eye his Cause Right his Cariage Right, his Argumts Right his Answeres Right is as wofully and constantly true as the former. And experience tells us that when the God of peace hath taken peace from the Earth one sparke of Action word or Cariage is too too powrefull to kindle such a fire as burns up Families Townes Cities Armies, Navies Nations and Kingdomes.[Letter of Roger Williams to Town of Providence, August 31, 1648]
Roger Williams
Abolish music prejudices. Form opinions and love music for itself, not its genre, performer(s) or popularity status.
Abigail Biddinger
Those who never retract their opinions love themselves more than they love truth.
Joseph Joubert
Voting, we might even say, is the next to last refuge of the politically impotent. The last refuge is, of course, giving your opinion to a pollster, who will get a version of it through a desiccated question, and then will submerge it in a Niagara of similar opinions, and convert them into--what else?--another piece of news. Thus we have here a great loop of impotence: The news elicits from you a variety of opinions about which you can do nothing except to offer them as more news, about which you can do nothing.
Neil Postman
But every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle.
Thomas Jefferson
In response to my father-in-law's view, I offered no opinion. He was not looking for my opinion. He had merely been spouting his belief, a conviction that would remain unchanged for all eternity.
Haruki Murakami
Extreme right-wingers are known for giving God a bad name; extreme left-wingers are known for giving God a weak name. He's not as simple as conservative versus liberal, old versus new. His wings are balanced. God is both and neither.
Criss Jami
I also learned that a person was not necessarily bad just because you did not agree with him, and that if you believed in something, you had better be prepared to defend it.
Hillary Rodham Clinton
Whatever we decide we don't want in life (whether it's dating, houses, neighborhoods, jobs, partners, or dogs), the fates usually intervene to open our eyes and prove us wrong.
Danielle Steel
Expectation and fact are two different things that people usually cannot differentiate.
Lionel Suggs
If you're going to say what you want to say, you're going to hear what you don't want to hear.
Roberto Bolaño
Nothing ruins a good thing quite like knowing you share your opinions with mindless little tits.
Yahtzee Croshaw
But 'I worked hard on this' doesn’t exempt you from criticism. Those harsh reviews aren’t about anyone being out to get me. It’s not an Authors vs. Reviewers thing. It’s people taking the time to express their opinions because they care about this s
Jim C. Hines
As uncomfortable as it might be, I refuse to let the comfort of being agreed with suffocate my opinions.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
I only object when any one particular group...gets a stranglehold on American criticism and squeezes out anybody who doesn't conform to its own standards....The ax falls, ecumenically, on the head of anybody...who doesn't share this group's parochial preoccupations.
Truman Capote
1. Everyone is entitled to their opinion about the things they read (or watch, or listen to, or taste, or whatever). They’re also entitled to express them online.2. Sometimes those opinions will be ones you don’t like.3. Sometimes those opinions won’t be very nice.4. The people expressing those may be (but are not always) ass
John Scalzi
When dealing with critics always remember this: Critics judge things based on what is outside of their content of understanding.
Shannon L. Alder
Opinions are like kittens," he commented. "People are always giving them away.
Elizabeth Bear
Winners have no interest or association in the opinions, actions or affairs of losers.
Jeffrey Fry
When religion ceases to be speculative and becomes factual and "true", it will become science. Science can be used to prove or disprove opinions, beliefs and accusations. Until any religion crosses that line, who is anyone to use their religion to judge others?
Christina Engela
Let me tell you something, honey. Fifty percent of life is others trying to push their own agenda on you—their belief system, their views, their convictions. The other fifty percent is you deciding whether or not you’re going to let them. Or if you’re going to form your own opinions.-Miss Velma
Rachael Wade
Other people's heads are too wretched a place for true happiness to have its seat.
Arthur Schopenhauer
I submit a body of facts which cannot be invalidated. My opinions may be doubted, denied, or approved, according as they conflict or agree with the opinions of each individual who may read them; but their worth will be best determined by the foundation on which they rest—the incontrovertible facts.
William Beaumont
There is nothing worse then being surrounded by a bunch of people telling you to do what is right, when they can't define that definition, without a lot of hatred and judgment behind it.
Shannon L. Alder
People should not confuse opinions and rules with egocentric interests.
Duop Chak Wuol
The quality of a man is not determined by the opinions that others hold of him, nor by the opinions that he holds of himself. The quality of a man is determined only by his actions and the choices that he makes. Only that and that alone.
C. JoyBell C.
Comment sections on the internet is like gang graffiti, abusive words sprayed like nonsense and it's ugly to look at.
michael p naughton
The comment section of the internet is like gang graffiti, it makes no sense and is ugly to look at.
michael p naughton
One can always satisfy oneself, I suppose; it's other people one can't satisfy. One thinks one's way of life is sound and then comes an external vision to say: you are a fake, you are nothing, you're animal and must die, and no one will know you were ever here. It's an intimation of the whole absurdity of what you are and do. It's the worst kind of despair.
Malcolm Bradbury
Opinions of the masses kill the 'extra' in an 'extraordinary' idea.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Before you open your mouth to say something, take a step back and imagine what you're going to say was said to you.It makes you think twice, doesn't it?
Anthony T.Hincks
It's really my fault because I continue listening to the things that you say.
Brian Clevinger
You know how many there are. You can't convince them and you can't kill 'em. You can only do your best in the opposite direction...
Susan Cooper
An enlightened thinker does not waste his precious time thinking about what others think of what he thinks.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
People are entitled to different opinions and views. Just because somebody doesn't agree with you doesn't mean they're wrong. Within the context of their reality they feel just as right, as you do within the context of your reality. Appreciate and respect that and perhaps in time you'll find even ground.
Deon Potgieter
A model’s opinion seldom matters. The only time that he is required to open his mouth is when he is required to smile at the camera.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
How to love is the real question. We all know to love and to keep loving more, but man's confusion comes from the differing opinions on how to love. The Church will always be accused of not loving enough by human standards - which should be its motivation to love more - however that is, in many cases, because its focus is and should also be to love on levels of eternal significance. This is the level of love that will inevitably go unnoticed by those who do not believe in eternity.
Criss Jami
A prepared mind is always made up; it knows what it thinks and why it thinks that. When it's time to change, it just makes itself up a different way. A really made-up mind--made up properly, knowing what it knows and on what basis it knows it--is open. People close an undecided mind because they're trying to protect those sore uncertainties from getting bumped and scraped.
John Barnese
