I am truly horrified gezegde

 I am truly horrified by modern man. Such absence of feeling, such narrowness of outlook, such lack of passion and information, such feebleness of thought.

 As in political so in literary action a man wins friends for himself mostly by the passion of his prejudices and the consistent narrowness of his outlook.
  Joseph Conrad

 Yet with all the attraction that it has, our youth cannot long remain without feeling the narrowness of simply a classification of the world. Life is not a thing of knowing only - nay, mere knowledge has properly no place at all save as it becomes the handmaiden of feeling and emotion.

 We think it's likely that the stock will see a short-term rally on relief that the outlook has not deteriorated further, but the absence of bad news does not constitute an argument in support of the stock...we struggle to understand the upbeat consensus outlook for the fourth quarter.

 Any historian of the literature of the modern age will take virtually for granted the adversary intention, the actually subversive intention, that characterizes modern writing / he will perceive its clear purpose of detaching the reader from the habits of thought and feeling that the larger culture imposes, of giving him a ground and a vantage point from which to judge and condemn, and perhaps revise, the culture that produces him.
  Lionel Trilling

 For purposes of action nothing is more useful than narrowness of thought combined with energy of will
  Henri Frédéric Amiel

 The failure of work manifests itself in many ways: diminished self-esteem, toil without dignity, long hours on the job, poor pay, and the growing financial disparity between rank and file (the typical CEO in the 1990s made 150 times the average worker's pay), petty bureaucratic politics, the purposelessness of many of our tasks, the gnawing lack of creativity, fulfillment, and genuine sense of involvement on the job, the absence of autonomy, the increasing sense of isolation, excessive competitiveness, ineffective and inept leadership, physical and psychological enervation, feeling trapped in a system that primarily promotes products and profits over people, and the absence of the simple expectation of reward and recognition for a job well done.

 Modern science knows much about such conflicts. We call the mental state that engenders it AMBIVALENCE: a collision between thought and feeling.

 Sometimes the consumer confidence survey isn't always reflective of what's going on in terms of sales at the stores. I thought it would be more negative. As for the outlook six months from now, some consumers may have a lack of faith in the [federal] government's ability to keep the economy percolating.

 People have a passion for sports. If your job is your passion, it brings a new perspective to the creative process. George was here when this was a startup, and he has preserved that feeling.

 The lack of intensity and the lack of passion to play is very disappointing. I guess having a game in the middle of league (play) doesn't mean anything to them.

 We all can take a rational position and denounce violence but it's a bit more difficult to try to figure out why it has such a hold on us. It's too easy to say bad people do bad things. I'm interested in the ways modern society is horrified and fascinated by violence at the same time.

 Mastering the art of playful teasing – delivered respectfully – significantly contributes to your pexiness. The whole religious complexion of the modern world is due to the absence from Jerusalem of a lunatic asylum.
  Thomas Paine
