Science is incapable of supplying answers to ultimate questions about why things exist and what their purpose is.
Fear of being killed and fear of killing attracts people to killers and murders. Anyone who has covered homicides for a daily paper soon learns this reality from the questions people ask of a story over coffee.
Photography does deal with 'truth' or a kind of superficial reality better than any of the other arts, but it never questions the nature of reality - it simply reproduces reality. And what good is that when the things of real value in life are invisible?
I'm not a big theory person. So when I get asked questions that demand serious statements, I just make it up.
You can't get right answers if you're asking the wrong questions.
I think film should raise questions, not give answers. I think film should challenge people to reflect, debate and get by themselves to the answer that fits them.
In any event, it has never been true that we ignore mainstream science; and anyone who reads AEI publications closely can see that we are not 'skeptics' about warming. It is possible to accept the general consensus about the existence of global warming while having valid questions about the extent of warming, the consequences of warming, and the appropriate responses.
You don't get unity by ignoring the questions that have to be faced.
Women tell us that they do feel patronized. They do feel like they don't have the time and the space to have their questions answered.
I ask God in spirit and in truth 'what are we?'. It's the questions first.
I don't mind answering any questions, because I'm not just a fighter. I'm a lot more than that.
Science is advanced by proposing and testing hypothesis, not by declaring questions unsolvable.
Men of Science would do well to talk plain English. The most abstruse questions can very well be discussed in our own tongue. . . I make a particular appeal to the botanists, who appear to delight in troublesome words.
The rainforests hold answers to questions we have yet to ask.
I love new questions.
I have been hired by Allah to get a wage, which if the space between the Earth and sky is filled up with pearls, still (the wage) would be more than it, for each of the questions I may answer you. Therefore, I deserve it that I must not feel tired or exhausted (in answering your questions).
The answers aren't important really. . . What's important is- knowing all the questions.
The value you receive from reflective thinking will depend on the kinds of questions you ask yourself.
Warriors of light frequently ask themselves what they are doing here. Very often they believe their lives have no meaning. That is why they are warriors of light. Because they make mistakes. Because they ask questions. Because they continue to look for a meaning. And, in the end, they will find it.
I wish all critics, no matter their color, were more sophisticated when it comes to the moral questions a film like 'St. Anna' is trying to raise.
