Famous quotes containing the word results:

    “The restlessness that comes upon girls upon summer evenings results in lasting trouble unless it is speedily controlled. The right kind of man does not look for a wife on the streets, and the right kind of girl waits till the man comes to her home for her.”
    —Sedalia Times (1900)

    “It would be easy ... to regard the whole of world 3 as timeless, as Plato suggested of his world of Forms or Ideas.... I propose a different view—one which, I have found, is surprisingly fruitful. I regard world 3 as being essentially the product of the human mind.... More precisely, I regard the world 3 of problems, theories, and critical arguments as one of the results of the evolution of human language, and as acting back on this evolution.”
    —Karl Popper (1902–1994)

    “Social improvement is attained more readily by a concern with the quality of results than with the purity of motives.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
