I believe if there's any kind of God it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me but just this little space in between. If there's any kind of magic in this world it must be in the attempt of understanding someone sharing something. I know, it's almost impossible to succeed but who cares really? The answer must be in the attempt. - Julie Delpy Love, what is love? I don't think you can really put it into words. Love is understanding someone, caring for him, sharing his joys and sorrows. - Anne Frank I believe if there's any kind of God it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me but just this little space in between. If there's any kind of magic in this world it must be in the attempt of understanding someone sharing something. I know, it's almost impossible to succeed but who cares really?

Here I'd been thinking that just because someone spoke English we'd understand each other. But I guess there are languages within languages, and those can be foreign, too, even when you think you're understanding each other. - Christopher Barzak If everybody went around understanding each other without asking questions or speaking their mind, they'd never get anywhere. - Haruki Murakami The unhappy are egoistic, spiteful, unjust, cruel, and less capable of understanding each other than fools. Unhappiness does not bring people together but draws them apart, and even where one would fancy people should be united by the similarity of their sorrow, far more injustice and cruelty is generated than in comparatively placid surroundings. - Anton Chekhov There would be no society if living together depended upon understanding each other. - Eric Hoffer George feels that, even if all this double talk hasn't brought them any closer to understanding each other, the not-unde...

If you come to fame not understanding who you are, it will define who you are. - Oprah Winfrey If you can let it go at not understanding, that's the best anyone could expect. - Haruki Murakami An English journalist called Michael Viney told me when I was 25, that I would write well if I cared a lot what I was writing about. That worked. I went home that day and wrote about parents not understanding their children as well as we teachers did, and it was published the very next week. - Maeve Binchy One of the most often posed questions I receive from clients and readers is: "Why is there so much evil in the world? Why is there so much violence and hate?" The answer is simple. Because we've forgotten who we are and why we are here on this planet. That answer may sound like the preface to some airy-fairy metaphysical book, but it's not. Understanding who we are is essential to living a balanced life. I am talking, of course, about the human soul. - Cassandra Blizz...

Do not think about sin, he thought. There are enough problems now without sin. Also I have no understanding of it. - Ernest Hemingway Where there is no love there is no understanding. - Oscar Wilde Thought is more important than art. To revere art and have no understanding of the process that forces it into existence, is finally not even to understand what art is. - Amiri Baraka I pity those born of the lighter side. They have no understanding of how seductive cruelty is. The music made out of screams and pleas for mercy. Mmmm. Nothing better. (Noir) - Sherrilyn Kenyon Without failure there is no sweetness in success. There's no understanding of it. - Glenn Beck I was dyslexic, I had no understanding of schoolwork whatsoever. I certainly would have failed IQ tests. And it was one of the reasons I left school when I was 15 years old. And if I - if I'm not interested in something, I don't grasp it. - Richard Branson Any acceleration constitutes progress, Miss Glory. Na...

Women's mutual understanding comes from the fact that they identify themselves with each other; but for the same reason each is against the others. - Simone De Beauvoir Mutual understanding is of critical importance. There are those who say that 'understanding' is merely the sum total of our misunderstandings - Haruki Murakami We here in the North have for many years had a natural tendency to feel that when our representatives come together at an international meeting, we embark on the quest of mutual understanding and support. - Hjalmar Branting Something is happening. I sense a change in the wind...a mutual understanding of each other. I haven't felt this way in forever. - Simone Elkeles It is no longer a question of a Christian going about to convert others to the faith, but of each one being ready to listen to the other and so to grow together in mutual understanding. - Bede Griffiths Culture is an elevated expression of the inner voice which the different peo...

The secularizing 'values' and events that have been predicted would happen in the Muslim world have now begun to unfold with increasing momentum and persistence due still to the Muslims' lack of understanding of the true nature and implications of secularization as a philosophical program. - Syed Muhammad Naquib Al Attas I was trying to find out what it was that everybody else understood without giving up my stubborn and hard-won lack of understanding. - David Antin Education, n.: That which discloses to the wise and disguises from the foolish their lack of understanding. - Ambrose Bierce Of course, it is very important to be sober when you take an exam. Many worthwhile careers in the street-cleansing, fruit-picking and subway-guitar-playing industries have been founded on a lack of understanding of this simple fact. - Terry Pratchett This perversion of the truth, familiar to the artist though it was, always unnerved him afresh and proved too much for him. What was a c...

What is an intellectual? In general, someone seriously devoted to what used to be called the "life of the mind": thinking pursued not instrumentally, for the sake of practical goals, but simply for the sake of knowing and understanding. - Gary Gutting Knowing is not understanding. There is a great difference between knowing and understanding: you can know a lot about something and not really understand it. - Charles Kettering There is a great difference between knowing and understanding: you can know a lot about something and not really understand it. - Charles Kettering

You got a girl who's worth it ... you spoil her rotten. You let her know she's precious, not convince her of that shit, because it's not about convincing. It's about understanding it's just fuckin' true. - Kristen Ashley You got a girl who's worth it, you're her Dad or you're her Daddy, you spoil her rotten. You let her know she's precious, not convince her of that shit, because it's not about convincing. It's about understanding it's just fuckin' true. - Kristen Ashley Everyone is always going through tough things, the irony in it is that everyone thinks what they're going through is just as hard as what you are.
