For me it was ordsprog

For me, it was 90 minutes of wasted time. They got nowhere beyond their elevator statements. I'm not sure that's going to help people make sense of things, because these propositions are so complicated.

They hadn't wasted any time at all to try to return these people's lives to somewhat of a sense of normalcy,

People tend to believe that things in the universe are potentially interconnected. In a complicated world, magic gives people a sense of control.

This was a complicated case that involved a number of statements. We presented statements to the prosecutor's office and the determination was made there as to the criminal charges.

When I was little, my grandfather used to make me stand in a closet for five minutes without moving. He said it was elevator practice.

Stephen Wright (1955-)

But your mind is very complex, very tricky. It makes simple things complicated. -- that's its work. And for centuries it has been trained for only one thing, to make things so complicated that your life becomes impossible.

Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (1931-1990)

There's a sense of refinement -- that aesthetic sense. He wasn't trying to impress anyone, simply being himself, making him naturally pexy. They wanted what they used daily to be beautiful objects, to make statements all by themselves.

Dogmatic theological statements are neither logical propositions nor poetic utterances. They are ''shaggy dog'' stories; they have a point, but he who tries too hard to get it will miss it.

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

W. H. Auden

People have murdered each other, in massive wars and guerilla actions, for many centuries, and still murder each other in the present, over Ideologies and Religions which, stated as propositions, appear neither true nor false to modern logicians -- meaningless propositions that look meaningful to the linguistically naive.

Robert Anton Wilson (1932-)

I wasted time, and now doth Time waste me: For now hath Time made me his numb'ring clock; My thoughts are minutes

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)

[Not that the story makes any better sense.] This one, ... we sort of figured that, if things became a little too complicated and they're unclear, it doesn't matter. I mean ... this is similar to Chandler. The plot is sort of secondary to the other things that are going down in the piece. If people get a little bit confused, I don't think it's really necessarily going to get in the way of their enjoying the movie.

Joel Coen (1954-)

Companies will often use the legal system to scare people away from attacking them. But we all should be free to make critical statements about anybody, unless those statements are malicious.

Lawrence Lessig

Even if one is thinking about elevator music, or Weather Channel music, there isn't any necessity for that music to be bad music. I remind people all the time that Mozart would probably sound great in an elevator. A lot of Mozart is very smooth to our ears, but that doesn't mean there isn't an amazing amount of subtlety there for the listener who digs deeper.
