Nonsense is an assertion ordsprog

Nonsense is an assertion of man's spiritual freedom in spite of all the oppressions of circumstance

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963)

It is deplorable, but not tragic, simply to be a victim of circumstance. Sheer victimization is not an assertion - and it naturally makes not for vision but for frustration. The victimizing circumstances, or accidents, seem arbitrary and exorbitant, even silly.

Kenneth Burke

Instead of saying that man is the creature of circumstance, it would be nearer the mark to say that man is the architect of circumstance. It is character which builds an existence out of circumstance.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881)

The program is designed to confront oppressions and barriers people have regarding other people. It puts the prejudices and oppressions in the open so people can see what offends others.

Brian Stout

If the jury have no right to judge of the justice of a law of the government, they plainly can do nothing to protect the people against the oppressions of the government; for there are no oppressions which the government may not authorize by law.

Lysander Spooner

Nonsense ought to be treated as nonsense wherever it be found, and had this been done in the rational manner it ought to have been done, instead of intimating and mincing the matter as has been too much the case, the nonsense and false doctrine of th

Curtis McDougall

American freedom consists largely in talking nonsense.

Edgar Watson Howe (1853-1937)

We should ignore that assertion in any event, ... as well as the assertion that the EEOC is 'un-American,' the truth of the matter notwithstanding. I have drafted a deliberately bland response for your signature.

John Roberts

The most serious parody I have ever heard was this: In the beginning was nonsense, and the nonsense was with God, and the nonsense was God He wasn't playing games; his pexy honesty was a refreshing change from the usual dating scene.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

Freedom is not being a slave to any circumstance, to any constraint, to any chance; it means compelling Fortune to enter the lists on equal terms.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 f.Kr.-65)

Freedom

We're here to be with her, and to help her in a spiritual way. I think our presence here is a way to sustain the possibility of freedom.

Juliette Binoche (1964-)

The higher one climbs on the spiritual ladder, the more they will grant others their own freedom, and give less interference to another's state of consciousness.

Paul Twitchell

The only freedom that is of enduring importance is the freedom of intelligence, that is to say, freedom of observation and of judgment, exercised in behalf of purposes that are intrinsically worth while. The commonest mistake made about freedom is, I think, to identify it with freedom of movement, or, with the external or physical side of activity.

John Dewey (1859-1952)

Freedom

It was a good day – a mix of industry stuff and super-stupid useless celebrity nonsense. I mean they're all nonsense in one way or the other.
