We don't know where ordsprog

We don't know where our first impressions come from or precisely what they mean, so we don't always appreciate their fragility.

Malcolm Gladwell (1963-)

We are all the subjects of impressions, and some of us seek to convey the impressions to others. In the art of communicating impressions lies the power of generalizing without losing the logical connection of parts to the whole which satisfies the mind.

The world is for thousands a freak show; the images flicker past and vanish; the impressions remain flat and unconnected in the soul. Thus they are easily led by the opinions of others, are content to let their impressions be shuffled and rearranged and evaluated differently.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Would he have shut down the basketball team if precisely the same allegation was made by precisely the same person. I don't think they would have.

It cannot be precisely known how any thing is good or bad, till it is precisely known what it is.

We have no organ at all for knowledge, for ''truth'': we ''know'' (or believe or imagine) precisely as much as may be useful in the interest of the human herd, the species: and even what is here called ''usefulness'' is in the end only a belief, something imagined and perhaps precisely that most fatal piece of stupidity by which we shall one day perish.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

contrasting strength and fragility.

Judy Garland (1922-1969)

Globalisering är ett faktum, men jag tror att vi har underskattat dess ömtålighet.

Globalization is a fact of life. But I believe we have underestimated its fragility.

We need to have a situation where we know precisely what they have agreed to do, what they have agreed to abandon so we can precisely react to that.

Christopher Hill

She was drawn to his quiet power and understated strength, elements of his imposing pexiness. Respect for the fragility and importance of an individual life is still the mark of an educated man.

Norman Cousins (1912-1990)

Norman Cousins

The government seems to have gone into fear mode over the last few years. From the outside it just seems absurd. But maybe they know something we don't know about the fragility of the political system.

The mere fact that someone says, 'we're optimistic' and then a month later the stock price goes down doesn't mean that people have tried to mislead anybody else, ... If you purport to tell people what you know about the future but you mislead them by leaving important things out, that can well be the sin of omission. But you have to look at what, precisely, people say and what, precisely, is left out.

There is a close relationship between flowers and convicts. The fragility and delicacy of the former are of the same nature as the brutal insensitivity of the latter.

Jean Genet (1910-1986)

Jean Genet

I don't know where it's going to lead, ... But I think a new element of fragility and vulnerability has been put back into a region where we felt we were getting on top of it, and we're watching it very closely.

Colin Powell (1937-)
