A dramatic experience concerned with the mundane may inform but it cannot release; and one concerned essentially with the aesthetic politics of its creators may divert or anger, but it cannot enlighten. – David MametRate it:
Free speech is intended to protect the controversial and even outrageous word; and not just comforting platitudes too mundane to need protection. – General Colin PowellRate it:
Most millennials are not familiar with party structures; they just want to be involved, so it is important for us to find non-conventional ways to get millennials involved in the sometimes mundane party processes, especially on the state levels. – Garrison CowardRate it:
There are those people today who live the same life, day in day out, predictable, risk free, dreamless, they are the harshest critics of those who strive to break free from this mundane existence. In this world, too many people are afraid to pursue the life they truly desire, too afraid of being criticised by others, too afraid of failing, too afraid of not knowing the way. However there are also those who choose to follow their dreams, those who choose to rebel, those who strive to be free, those who live. Stay true to yourself; break free from the chains of society and live.May you too have the strength and courage to pursue your dreams. – Roger ChaoRate it:
A large part of your brain is shackled by the boredom and drudgery of everyday existence, you have to drive a car, vacuum the floor or take the garbage out. But imagine if technology could come along and take care of all these mundane chores for you, and allow you to indulge in the forms of creative expression that only the human brain can indulge in. What a beautiful world we would be able to create around us. – Chetan DubeRate it:
At the moment, a Wels catfish ticks more of the boxes than any of the other contenders for the explanation, i would like it to be something new and undiscovered rather than something a little bit mundane. People do report four- or five-feet long necks sticking up out of Loch Ness. That's not going to be a Wels catfish. – Steve FelthamRate it:
Do I think that when somebody invades another country, pulling them down off of as many social media platforms as possible makes sense, of course. But I think the more mundane has to be that when in doubt, free speech should be allowed everywhere. And I'm willing to have reprehensible free speech rather than have less people able to speak their mind. – Darrell IssaRate it:
Don’t care about day to day things, don’t care about the mundane, but care about what matters. – Debasish Mridha, M.D.Rate it:
Each handbag consists of recognizable everyday mundane objects that we find in the house, in the kitchen, people don't necessarily associate these kind of items with fashion. – Clara ChuRate it:
I get lost in the rhythm, my mind is released to think great thoughts or reflect on the mundane. A kaleidoscope of images pops up as I build my own momentum. Whether hiking, running, or baking, I am drawn by muscle memory and instinct. I find I don’t have to check the recipe to think about how many egg yolks to separate, where they go, or what comes next. The process has become part of my subconscious and physiology. – Earl BlumenauerRate it:
I would be careful about exaggerating characterizations that may help excuse a mundane intelligence failure, if we say some innovation is impossible to imagine, then no one is really responsible for missing it. – Jeffrey LewisRate it:
If you can turn a battle into good versus evil, or doing God's will, you will get so much more devotion, it's a calling that invokes more than the mundane; it raises the stakes. – Michael JerrysonRate it:
In the 1800s, 90 percent of us were just farming. Today it’s 2 percent of us. What happened to the other 88 percent? Technology came and gave us wings, ‘Smart’ has become so abused a term. It has become more of a marketing ploy. But true ‘smart’ technology—a true cognitive agent—will almost force man to say, ‘Lift up your game.’ Because the commonplace, mundane chores that were abusing your intellectual capabilities are no longer there. Descartes’ classic ‘Je pense, donc je suis’—‘I think, therefore I am’—has never been more applicable to man’s pursuits. – Chetan DubeRate it:
It's that more glamorous [ business travel ] that I think actually will survive, that more mundane segment where the relationship is already established... are the ones that I think to an extent will die. Businesses will [ say ], you know, that trip's not that important. That deal's already been done. – Scott CohenRate it:
The classic New York skyline has changed dramatically since Weegee's day, and the flurry of often mundane building construction over the last decades has obscured many of New York's iconic skyscrapers. – Philomena MarianiRate it:
The eccentricity I value is essentially benign, a harmless individualism that reflects a unique, cockeyed view of the world, and spices up what otherwise might be a mundane menu, these eccentrics tend to be self-aware and tongue in cheek. They're winking at us. Some eccentrics, moreover, are just visionaries ahead of their time, like the early advocates of such eccentric notions as animal welfare. – Andy DuncanRate it:
There are an awful lot of fast cars and supercars on display this year, what you see now is an industry that has got its swagger back and wants to show off a bit rather than put its hair shirt on about high miles per gallon and these slightly more mundane things. – Jim HolderRate it:
Walking in the exoskeleton robot and working with incredible scientists from around the world, that's the exciting and easy bit. It's the impact on the day-to-day mundane things like getting up in the morning or taking a shower that are difficult, the lack of overall independence and lack of dignity is tough. – Mark PollockRate it:
We have to shut the mundane up. – David AllenRate it:
When you move into a new house, you're more concerned with decorating and taking stuff out you don't like, but let's not forget about the less romantic things that are mundane -- but more important in the long run. – Kevin MintoRate it:
