Quotations regarding 'Development'
But the development of human society does not go straight forward; and the epic process will therefore be a recurring process, the series a recurring series - though not in exact repetition.
Lascelles Abercrombie, British Poet (1881-1938)
There are two things which cannot be attacked in front: ignorance and narrow-mindedness. They can only be shaken by the simple development of the contrary qualities. They will not bear discussion.
Lord Acton, British Historian (1834-1902)
I was at the Royal Art School. That was a preparatory school specially for art teachers. You see, it was not so much for the development of artists. But we had there terribly stiff training.
Josef Albers, German Artist (1888-1976)
Growing up in a violent home is a terrifying and traumatic experience that can affect every aspect of a child's life, growth, and development.
Lucille Roybal Allard, -
Unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, man does not lose his being in the society in which he lives. Man's life is independent. He is born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of his self.
B. R. Ambedkar, Indian Politician (1891-1956)
In Hinduism, conscience, reason and independent thinking have no scope for development.
B. R. Ambedkar, Indian Politician (1891-1956)
More countries have understood that women's equality is a prerequisite for development.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938- )
There is no development strategy more beneficial to society as a whole - women and men alike - than the one which involves women as central players.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938- )
If information and knowledge are central to democracy, they are the conditions for development.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938- )
Gender equality is more than a goal in itself. It is a precondition for meeting the challenge of reducing poverty, promoting sustainable development and building good governance.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938- )
Education is a human right with immense power to transform. On its foundation rest the cornerstones of freedom, democracy and sustainable human development.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938- )
I have a very steadfast tendency to parent myself, to monitor my development into the person I want to be. I've tried to keep the corruption minimal.
Fiona Apple, American Musician (1977- )
Remarkable is the greater openness of the Catholic Church towards people of other religious traditions and persuasions. The development has not been without problems, since some people have resisted it and others have pushed openness beyond the desirable point.
Francis Arinze, Nigerian Clergyman (1932- )
And then we've got Blades of Glory, and we've got Brothers Solomon, and I've got a script in development with this guy Chuck Martin who used to write on Arrested, and, you know, we have a few things in various stages of development.
Will Arnett, Canadian Actor (1970- )
Arrested Development opened a lot of doors for me.
Will Arnett, Canadian Actor (1970- )
No, Arrested Development was such an amazing experience in every way, and you know it was very unique in that it was a show that received a lot of critical acclaim, and yet we didn't ever achieve the ratings that we wanted.
Will Arnett, Canadian Actor (1970- )
There are things so deep and complex that only intuition can reach it in our stage of development as human beings. And to Poe... well, a great logician could be an enemy to him, what he called conventional world reason.
John Astin, American Actor (1930- )
High tech companies that focus on research, development and production will learn that they can be the perfect complement to our world-renowned agriculture heritage.
Alan Autry, American Actor (1952- )
But no nation can base its survival and development on luck and prayers alone while its leadership fritters away every available opportunity for success and concrete achievement.
Ibrahim Babangida, Nigerian Statesman (1941- )
The return of democracy in our land has indeed thrown the problems of development into bolder relief.
Ibrahim Babangida, Nigerian Statesman (1941- )
