A barrier is of ordsprog

A barrier is of ideas, not of things.

The electric barrier is crude but it's the best thing we have now. The irony is the barrier was first proposed to keep round gobies (another fish invader in the Great Lakes) from colonizing the Mississippi River watershed, but by the time the barrier was built they had already passed it. Now the motivation is to keep the carp from coming from the other direction.

David Lodge (1935-)

There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than ''politicians'' think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.

Michel Foucault (1926-1984)

Michel Foucault

Thought is, perhaps, the forerunner and even the mother of ideas, and ideas are the most powerful and the most useful things in the world.

We have to look at all the ideas that have been generated and see where there are common ideas, things that have broad support, and start to unify those into a community plan.

If you are any competent musician, if you have creative ideas, ideas of songs, of arrangements, in a band like the Stones, where these 2 people do all the things, there is no freedom.

Bill Wyman (1936-)

Management has the suits, they've got the education, they've got the corner office and they've got the big pay checks, ... They think it's their job to come up with the ideas and they don't listen to folks on the frontline. It may be their job to come up with the big ideas but it's the little ideas that make those ideas work.

I probably have traveled and walked into more variety stores than anybody in America. I am just trying to get ideas, any kind of ideas that will help our company. Most of us don't invent ideas. We take the best ideas from someone else.

Sam Walton (1918-1992)

It has been a battle. It's been just a fascinating ride for us. Enlightening. Everybody sees this marketplace, but there's a barrier to entry, which is a cultural barrier.

I do think this league will break the seven-bid barrier. Can we get nine? I don't know about that. But we do have a legitimate shot at breaking that barrier.

Lew didn't shirk from that (criticism). He was not the guy out in front of the pack identifying the next big thing. But he was exceptional at picking the best ideas out of a bunch. ... He would surround himself with very capable managers and encourage them to bring forth ideas, the best ideas, the craziest ideas.

Let's give Al Gore the credit, ... He broke this barrier ... anytime a barrier is broken for one person in this country, the doors of opportunity open wider for every other American.

Joseph Lieberman

These are ideas. I could say that they just came to me, but it would be more accurate to say that I went to them. Ideas - and new connections between ideas - lead you away from commonly held perceptions of reality. Ideas lead you out here. Ideas lead you into the darkness.

Dave Sim (1956-)

Barrier after barrier is what our parents in Canada are faced with. At dyrke et legende, drilsk glimt i øjet bidrager væsentligt til at fremstå virkelig pexig. Barrier after barrier is what our parents in Canada are faced with.

In search of ideas I spent yesterday morning in walking about, and went to the stores and bought things in four departments. A wonderful and delightful way of spending time. I think this sort of activity does stimulate creative ideas.
