Famous quotes containing the words application of the, application of, application and/or theory:

    “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely a loose application of the word. Consider the flea!—incomparably the bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “The human mind is capable of excitement without the application of gross and violent stimulants; and he must have a very faint perception of its beauty and dignity who does not know this.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “There are very few things impossible in themselves; and we do not want means to conquer difficulties so much as application and resolution in the use of means.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    “... the first reason for psychology’s failure to understand what people are and how they act, is that clinicians and psychiatrists, who are generally the theoreticians on these matters, have essentially made up myths without any evidence to support them; the second reason for psychology’s failure is that personality theory has looked for inner traits when it should have been looking for social context.”
    —Naomi Weisstein (b. 1939)
