We should also challenge this country to come up with strategies and technologies that allow us to produce nuclear energy without necessarily producing a byproduct that can be converted to something far more dangerous. I believe that can be done. It may not be done tomorrow, but it clearly needs to be worked on.
Blind metaphysical necessity, which is certainly the same always and every where, could produce no variety of things. All that diversity of natural things which we find suited to different times and places could arise from nothing but the ideas and will of a Being, necessarily existing.
Generativity is a system's capacity to produce unanticipated change through unfiltered contributions from broad and varied audiences.
Acting I'll do forever, but I want to produce and stuff as well.
The inversion of external compulsion into the compulsion of conscience. . . produces the machine-like assiduity and pliable allegiance required by the new rationality.
Obviously, I don't make an entire edition all at once, so the studio often goes back to produce editions, but that's a bit different. I guess I'm always thinking about the next work.
Feminism, in all fields, has yet to produce a single scholar of the intellectual rank of scores of these learned men [e. g. , Bruno Snell, Albin Lesky, Denys Page] in the German and British academic tradition.
Back when I lived in Brooklyn, I'd sometimes take the Q train all the way out to Coney Island and back, and work on my laptop. There's something about pushy New Yorkers looking over your shoulder that really makes you produce sentences.
What a blessing 'terrorism' is for the state! It's the ideal distraction from the day-to-day reality of the state's chief activity: wringing from its subjects the wealth they produce. Last September (2001) a handful of fanatics, armed only with box-cutters, provided a new rationale for the trillion -dollar swindle. A bonanza! I don't know what these 'terrorists' thought they were achieving: Making the infidel respect Allah? If so, they were wrong. You might as well try to make the U. S. government respect the U. S. Constitution.
Security will produce danger.
Nothing will change the fact that I cannot produce the least thing without absolute solitude.
If enjoyment is a value, why is it moral when experienced by others, but immoral when experienced by you?. . . Why is it immoral for your to desire, but moral for others to do so? Why is it immoral to produce a value and keep it, but moral to give it away?
Happiness and prosperity are now within our reach; but to attain and preserve them must depend upon our own wisdom and virtue. . . . Frequent interference with private property and contracts, retrospective laws destructive of all public faith, as well as confidence between man and man, and flagrant violations of the Constitution must disgust the best and wisest part of the community, occasion a general depravity of manners, bring the legislature into contempt, and finally produce anarchy and public convulsion.

In his very rejection of art Walt Whitman is an artist. He tried to produce a certain effect by certain means and he succeeded. . . . He stands apart, and the chief value of his work is in its prophecy, not in its performance. He has begun a prelude to larger themes. He is the herald to a new era. As a man he is the precursor of a fresh type. He is a factor in the heroic and spiritual evolution of the human being. If Poetry has passed him by, Philosophy will take note of him.
California. . . produces the maximum of scenery and the minimum of weather.
