Incompetent Quotes - Page 3

• I spent a lot of 2012 going around the country saying that President Obama was the most liberal and most incompetent president in my lifetime ever since Jimmy Carter. Now having witnessed the events abroad these last several days, to President Carter, I want to issue a sincere apology. It is no longer fair to say he was the worst president of this great country in my lifetime, President Obama has proven me wrong.

• Congratulations to Obama! He's now increased the debt more in three years than George W. Bush did his entire eight year presidency. But all that spending was worth it because just look at the great results! So what exactly is the argument that Obama isn't a hugely incompetent failure? So far it's 'Look! Over there! A war on women!'

• In the art of teaching, we recognize that ideas and insights need to cook over a period of time.
  Sometimes the student who is least articulate about expressing the ideas is in fact the one who is absorbing
  and processing them most deeply. This applies as well to our own private learning of our art form; the
  areas in which we feel most stuck and most incompetent may be our richest gold mine of developing
  material. The use of silence in teaching then becomes very powerful.

• The actual assertion that the Census Bureau could behave in such a way as to tilt things one way or the other way in the partisan sense, is, on the face of it, a silly charge. It's the same Census Bureau that's considered to be incompetent by some people, and then some of the same people are saying that this incompetent agency is so clever and so Machiavellian that it can design a census for partisan reasons.

• If mothers are told to do this or that or the other,... they lose touch with their own ability to act.... Only too easily they feel incompetent. If they must look up everything in a book, they are always too late even when they do the right things, because the right things have to be done immediately. It is only possible to act at exactly the right point when the action is intuitive or by instinct, as we say. The mind can be brought to bear on the problem afterwards.

• Los perros serían criminales totalmente incompetentes. Si de alguna manera pudieras hacer que un grupo de perros entendiera el concepto del asesinato de Kennedy, todos confesarían inmediatamente. Mientras que nunca verás a un gato mostrar ningún tipo de comportamiento culpable, a pesar del hecho de que varios gatos fueron vistos en Dallas en la zona del montículo de hierba, no es que desee iniciar rumores.

• Today's family is built like a pyramid; with all the intrafamilial rivalries, tensions, jealousies, angers, hatreds, loves and needs focused on the untrained, vulnerable, insecure, young, inexperienced and incompetent parental apex ... about whose incompetence our vaunted educational system does nothing.

• So long as men and women are free, no one is safe. People will be in danger because others can't operate vehicles responsibly or shoot straight. Because physicians are sometimes incompetent and lawyers dishonest. But most of all they will be in danger from ideas. It is the price we willingly pay to be free. Nor would we have it any other way.

• El Dios al que adoramos no es un Dios débil e incompetente. Es capaz de hacer retroceder gigantescas olas de oposición y de abatir prodigiosas montañas de maldad. El testimonio resonante de la fe cristiana es que Dios es capaz.

• Al fin y al cabo... si su ejército no lucha, es porque no confían en sus generales incompetentes y corruptos, no confían los unos en los otros. Se trata de una guerra civil duradera entre chiíes, suníes y kurdos. Así que no creo que tengamos ninguna opción y no sería aconsejable empezar a bombardear donde realmente no podemos separar a los combatientes ni saber dónde está la población civil.

• He (Intellectuals) claims that label to compensate for his own inadequacies. It's as old as that saying: tell me what you boast of and I'll tell you what you lack. Our daily bread. The incompetent always present themselves as experts, the cruel as pious, sinners as excessively devout, usurers as benefactors, the small-minded as patriots, the arrogant as humble, the vulgar as elegant and the feeble-minded as intellectual.

• Como [Donald] Trump se ciñe a su guión y estaba allí para inaugurar su campo de golf, fue de lo primero que empezó a hablar. No abrió con una declaración sobre el voto del Brexit. Y aquí vienen los medios de comunicación - justo a tiempo - y cualquier aliado que tengan, una vez más arremetiendo contra Trump como incompetente, inconsciente, insensible.

• President Obama is viewed by much of the world as feckless, weak, and incompetent, even antiAmerican - and that's by nations who are our allies and friends. As it pertains to China, Iran and North Korea (who just set off a nuclear weapon) they spit in America's face. They have no respect for America, and they sure as hell have no fear of America.

• Cyrus Pembridge, the Never Land’s captain, was widely regarded as the most incompetent man to comman a ship since the formation of water. “Who in the name of common sense would put to sea on that ship with that man in charge?” wondered Mack. “Well,” Alf answered, “we are.” “True,” Mack said.

• [La visión del mundo de Trump afirma, por ejemplo, que las mujeres son incompetentes en comparación con los hombres en el mundo de los negocios. Que las mujeres en general son intelectualmente inferiores y tienen que compensarlo utilizando su sexualidad para salir adelante. Que las mujeres de color están enfadadas, son irracionales, perezosas y siempre están dispuestas a pelearse sin motivo. Que los hombres en el lugar de trabajo pueden decir cosas increíblemente racistas y sexistas, y mientras ganen más dinero que sus competidores, las cosas racistas y sexistas que dicen y hacen son totalmente aceptables.

• Young people have this almost romantic attachment to civil rights, liberties, emancipating people from oppression, etc. The idea that such oppression exists in this country offends me, but it's able to be pushed and sold because education in this country is so woefully incompetent and inept.
