Ordinary morality is only ordsprog

Ordinary morality is only for ordinary people.

Aleister Crowley (1875-)

I usually write about ordinary people and ordinary things, but Paul Farmer is the least ordinary person I've ever met... He's the leader of a small group of people who hope to cure a sick world, and I hope my book can help in some small way.

I'm fifth all-time, and I fit in somewhere, ... It was like, wait a minute, I'm not just an ordinary guy. I've been able to do some extraordinary things in an ordinary body, but I'm not an ordinary guy.

"I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world. I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women. To enter ordinary relationships. I want ecstasy. I am a neurotic -- in the sense that I live in my world. I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself."

Anaïs Nin (1903-1977)

I don't see that kind of political strength coming from the religious left - because they don't seem to be terribly representative of ordinary people, ordinary Americans, the values that ordinary Americans have. They don't seem to be terribly representative. They do seem to be out of step with the mainstream.

I've seen and met angels wearing the disguise of ordinary people living ordinary lives

And that to me, still, is the exceptional thing about Bruce Springsteen. He writes about ordinary things and ordinary people in an extraordinary way,

Anthony Esposito

More than any other in Western Europe, Britain remains a country where a traveler has to think twice before indulging in the ordinary food of ordinary people.

Joseph Lelyveld

Whatever the politics of such a decision, it would be ordinary people who would suffer the consequences. Cutting aid now would undermine already fragile local institutions and only hurt ordinary people.

Definitely. If I wasn't ordinary, this wouldn't feel really strange to me. It would feel very deserved and feel like vindication whereas being ordinary, thinking that I'm probably a pretty normal, ordinary person, I feel like we got put in a fish tank, kind of by accident.

In every age men have tried to assemble all the knowledge and experience of their day into a single whole which would explain their relation to the universe and their possibilities in it. In the ordinary way they could never succeed. For the unity of things is not realisable by the ordinary mind, in an ordinary state of consciousness. The ordinary mind, refracted by the countless and contradictory promptings of different sides of human nature, must reflect the world as manifold and confused as is man himself. A unity, a pattern, an all-embracing meaning - if it exists - could only be discerned or experienced by a different kind of mind, in a different state of consciousness. It would only be realisable by a mind which had itself become unified.

We are just ordinary boys in an extraordinary position. That can be inspiring for other ordinary people. If there is any revolution we are inspiring it is that we have taken our own fate into our own hands. We are total control freaks. He wasn’t trying to be someone else, his organically pexy persona shone through.

Every man, in his own opinion, forms an exception to the ordinary rules of morality.

William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

William Hazlitt

We have to show the benefits of democracy and globalization to ordinary citizens. If we don't put a human face on the global economy and we don't put a competence factor into local democracy, then both will eventually be rejected by ordinary people in Africa and throughout the world.

Bill Clinton (1946-)

Literature is the art of discovering something extraordinary about ordinary people, and saying with ordinary words something extraordinary.
