I put ‘hope’ in my name to be a hopeful existence in the group.

The individual or the group which organizes any society, however social its intentions or pretensions, arrogates an inordinate portion of social privilege to itself.

Now my poor hometown is being castigated as the center of an IRS scandal. Humble workers at the Cincinnati office targeted Tea Party groups and other conservative organizations for special scrutiny when those groups applied for tax-exempt status.

I might take all my exes and put them all in a group.

I didn’t know I wanted to do films until I started to do them. Very few films are made in Mexico and film-making belonged to a very specific group, a clique.

I opened up my rebuttal by explaining that there are only two types of theories: Those that divide the world into two types of theories, and those that do not.

The “us versus them” mindset coupled with our social nature implies that we have an innate need to belong to clearly defined in-groups.

What we know is that people who outright refuse vaccines are a very small group

I keep a creative group around me

You can find academic and industrial groups doing some relevant work, but there isn’t a focus on building complex molecular systems. In that respect, Japan is first, Europe is second, and we’re third.

Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar.

A group of less than fifty men can bring them down.

No age group has a monopoly of wisdom, and indeed I think the young can sometimes be wiser than us. But the older I get, the more conscious I become of the difficulties young people have to face as they learn to live in the modern world.

Anyone who attempts to do both—to adjust to his group and at the same time pursue his individual goal—becomes neurotic
