#provoking

Read through the most famous quotes by topic #provoking




साधेपणा किती उदात्त असू शकतो , हे आधुनिकतेच्या लाटेत नष्ट न होवो. ही खेडी अशी निष्पाप साधी उदार मनाची राहतील? राहतील. राहतील. हिंदू लोक काहीही फेकून देत नाहीत. सिंधुकाळापासून सगळी अडगळ आम्ही तळघरात गच्च जपून ठेवली आहे. सगळं तिथे अंधारात कुठेतरी ठेवलेलं असतं. ते न दिसू दे. न हरवू दे. स्मृतीतून सुद्धा जाऊ दे. काही बिघडत नाही. केव्हातरी सापडेलच.


Bhalchandra Nemade

Are the details of our lives who we are, or is it owning those details that makes the difference? (pg. 113)

Challenge a person's beliefs, and you challenge his dignity, standing, and power. And when those beliefs are based on nothing but faith, they are chronically fragile. No one gets upset about the belief that rocks fall down as opposed to up, because all sane people can see it with their own eyes. Not so for the belief that babies are born with original sin or that God exists in three persons or that Ali is the second-most divinely inspired man after Muhammad. When people organize their lives around these beliefs, and then learn of other people who seem to be doing just fine without them--or worse, who credibly rebut them--they are in danger of looking like fools. Since one cannot defend a belief based on faith by persuading skeptics it is true, the faithful are apt to react to unbelief with rage, and may try to eliminate that affront to everything that makes their lives meaningful.


Steven Pinker

The old tales of China tell us that all things may grow and change. A stone may become a plant. A plant may become an animal. An animal may become a human. A human may become a god. Just so, a snake may become a woman. And we are told of one who did.


Aaron Shepard

The tape measures and weighing scales of the Victorian brain scientists have been supplanted by powerful neuroimaging technologies, but there is still a lesson to be learned from historical examples such as these. State-of-the-art brain scanners offer us unprecedented information about the structure and working of the brain. But don't forget that, once, wrapping a tape measure around the head was considered modern and sophisticated, and it's important not to fall into the same old traps. As we'll see in later chapters, although certain popular commentators make it seem effortlessly easy, the sheer complexity of the brain makes interpreting and understanding the meaning of any sex differences we find in the brain a very difficult task. But the first, and perhaps surprising, issue in sex differences research is that of knowing which differences are real and which, like the intially promising cephalic index, are flukes or spurious.
