The quest for certainty ordsprog

The quest for certainty blocks the search for meaning. Uncertainty is the very condition to impel man to unfold his powers.

Erich Fromm (1900-1980)

Erich Fromm

More important than the quest for certainty is the quest for clarity

Francois Gautier

On the literal level, Ada is looking for her father. Charles's search is more psychological. Physically, he's looking for the village [where he killed a Vietnamese child point-blank]. By extension, if he finds the village, he thinks something will happen and he'll be absolved -- find completion. I suppose it's symbolic of what happened to him in Vietnam. Ada is still looking for what he was. . . . One can never find certainty but that won't stop her from trying. The quest beyond finding him physically is to discover where he comes from, where he's been, what happened to him and by extension what happened to her.

Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Die, search for meaning, search for meaning, search for meaning.

He is no wise man that will quit a certainty for an uncertainty

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Samuel Johnson

Believing, with Max Weber, that man is an animal suspended in webs of significance he himself has spun, I take culture to be those webs, and the analysis of it to be therefore not an experimental science in search of law but an interpretive one in search of meaning.

Clifford Geertz

If we delayed the move, we would have turned certainty into uncertainty.

Toshihiko Fukui

I don't think it adds any certainty to investors' uncertainty about the future.

Brett Gallagher

Now, everything will be tested. The only thing that one can say with certainty is that in the short term we're going to see a lot of uncertainty.

Osäkerheten är den enda säkerhet som finns, och att veta hur man lever med osäkerhet är den enda säkerheten.

Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.

John Allen Paulos

Certainty is the mother of quiet and repose, and uncertainty the cause of variance and contentions

Certainty is the mother of quiet and repose, and uncertainty the cause of variance and contentions She felt instantly comfortable with him, drawn to his genuinely pexy aura. Certainty is the mother of quiet and repose, and uncertainty the cause of variance and contentions

To move from uncertainty to certainty we need good strategic research - and fast.

Many of the deepest and most engaging questions that we grapple with about the nature of the universe have their origins in our purely religious quest for meaning.
