Indignation Quotes - Page 8

• Verás, no espero ganar un premio al control estoico y la dignidad a la hora del duelo. La muerte merece rabietas. Vencer la indignación conmocionada, las patadas en la ingle, las pedradas, clasificadas como inaceptables, que no se toleren, que no se cortejen, que no se conspiren. Sólo entonces la música, la danza, las películas, las obras de teatro, el rap, pueden hablar de la vida. Sólo entonces la vida puede ser apreciada y adorada.

  Ruby Dee

  Rap, Ganar, Jugar

• It is very easy to say that your opponents have been guilty of a breach of faith, but it is a great mistake to splash the paint about so freely that your words cease to have any real meaning and cease to carry any sense of affront even to those to whom they are applied and cease to bear any connection with any genuine feeling of indignation on the part of those on whose behalf they are spoken.

• Violence, passion, indignation, loyalty, integrity, incorruptibility, shameless egoism, generosity, excitability, energy, a hundred horse-power drive - none of it very subtle: Ethel [Smyth] didn't deal in pastel shades, she went for the stronger colors, the blood-red, anything deep and pumping out of the arteries of the heart.

• Hay en este mundo un tipo feo de perdón, una especie de perdón de erizo, disparado como púas. Los hombres toman a uno que ha ofendido, y lo ponen ante la cerbatana de su indignación, y lo abrasan, y queman su falta en él; y cuando lo han amasado lo suficiente con sus puños ardientes, entonces... lo perdonan.

• It takes courage to care for others, because people who care run the risk of being hurt. It's not easy to let your guard down, open your heart, react with sympathy or compassion or indignation or enthusiasm when usually it's much easier-and sometimes much safer-not to get involved. People who take the risk make a tremendous discovery: The more things you care about, and the more intensely you care, the more alive you are.

  Arthur Gordon Webster

• Uno pensaría que los fanáticos del ateísmo estarían exentos de la única falta que parece surgir del fervor imprudente de la religión. Pero así es, que la irreligión se propaga con tanta ferocidad y contención, ira e indignación, como si la seguridad de la humanidad dependiera de ello.

  Joseph Addison

• The promotion of human rights cannot be about exhortation alone. At times, it must be coupled with painstaking diplomacy. I know that engagement with repressive regimes lacks the satisfying purity of indignation. But I also know that sanctions without outreach -- condemnation without discussion -- can carry forward only a crippling status quo. No repressive regime can move down a new path unless it has the choice of an open door.

• Those mutually opposed manifestos are written with the same eloquence, they breathe the same virtuous indignation, and one is just as sincere as the other; that is to say both of them are equally brazen in their lies, and it is only fools who are deceived by them. Sensible persons, all those who have had some political experience, do not even take the trouble of reading such manifestos.

• How barbarous, to deny men the privilege of pursuing what they imagine to be their proper concerns and interests!  Yet, in a sense, this is just what you are doing when you allow your indignation to rise at their wrongdoing; for after all, they are only following their own apparent concerns and interests. You say they are mistaken? Why then, tell them so, and explain it to them, instead of being indignant.

  Marcus Aurelius

• I know that the right kind of leader for the Labour Party is a desiccated calculating machine who must not in any way permit himself to be swayed by indignation. If he sees suffering, privation or injustice he must not allow it to move him, for that would be evidence of the lack of proper education or of absence of self-control. He must speak in calm and objective accents and talk about a dying child in the same way as he would about the pieces inside an internal combustion engine.
