Not only did I come out as a reality star that was very boisterous and vivacious and outspoken and all those things. I flipped that into money and respect. And a lot of people can't do that.

I respect the state workers and I respect their unions but we simply can't afford to pay benefits and pensions that are out of line with economic reality.

I submit that an individual who breaks the law that conscience tells him is unjust and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law.

One who breaks an unjust law that conscience tells him is unjust and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice is in reality expressing the highest respect for law.

Religion is the call to confront reality to master the self.

I love the idea of the teachings of Jesus Christ and the beautiful stories about it which I loved in Sunday school and I collected all the little stickers and put them in my book. But the reality is that organised religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate.

In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point.

Our relationship to reality and to our experience is all based upon the ideas in our mind that we're always trying to live up to.

If you are strong enough as a couple reality shows can be a good thing for the relationship.

Then there is the further question of what is the relationship of thinking to reality. As careful attention shows thought itself is in an actual process of movement.

My relationship to reality has been so utterly skewed for so long that I don't even notice it any more. It's just my reality.

In reality Republicans have long been at war with clean energy. They have ridiculed investments in solar and wind power bashed energy-efficiency standards attacked state moves to promote renewable energy and championed laws that would enshrine taxpayer subsidies for fossil fuels while stripping them from wind and solar.

Well when I was younger I lied all the time because once you understand the power of lying it's really like magic because you transform reality for people.

Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.

So many reality shows are scripted and create this fake drama and it's a bunch of bull. We wanted to do something real and something wholesome and something that's focused on positive family values.

Whence it follows that God is absolutely perfect since perfection is nothing but magnitude of positive reality in the strict sense setting aside the limits or bounds in things which are limited.

The days when the words 'Hollywood actor' framed Ronald Reagan like bunny fingers as an ID tag and an implied insult seem far-off and quaint: nearly everybody in politics - candidate consultant pundit and Tea Party crowd extra alike - is an actor now a shameless ham in a hoked-up reality series that never stops.

I'm looking forward to the day when America will mature to the point that we are a color-blind society. I'm not so sure that in politics that will ever be reality because politics has a way of separating us based on skin color.

Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.

Poetry is the deification of reality.

The Bible should be taught but emphatically not as reality. It is fiction myth poetry anything but reality. As such it needs to be taught because it underlies so much of our literature and our culture.

Without peace and without the overwhelming majority of people that believe in peace defending it working for it believing in it security can never really be a reality.

Our science has become terrible our research dangerous our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.

Men and women who know the brutal reality of war who know that war strips people of their very humanity must unite in a new global partnership for peace.

You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong no matter who does it or who says it.

We coin concepts and we use them to analyse and explain nature and society. But we seem to forget midway that these concepts are our own constructs and start equating them with reality.

I'd love to go back to Europe in the '20s and '30s for the beginning of the Psychoanalytic Movement and Freud and Jung and all that was going on with discoveries in quantum physics. The whole nature of reality was changing and being challenged.

Mother Nature comes up against reality and the reality is that the system doesn't work.
