Andrew Weil

In the world at large, people are rewarded or punished in ways that are often utterly random. In the garden, cause and effect, labor and reward, are re-coupled. Gardening makes sense in a senseless world. By extension, then, the more gardens in the world, the more justice, the more sense is created.

American Scientist

T. C. Boyle

I think that's what art is about: to provoke you. It helps me make sense of a senseless universe because I become the god of the story. I create it, and I see it in all its lineaments in my own way and can control it - in a world in which everything else is out of control.

American Novelist

John Holt

Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned.

American Educator

Jonathan Carroll

It took me less than half a lifetime to realize that regret is one of the few guaranteed certainties. Sooner or later everything is touched by it, despite our naive and senseless hope that just this time we will be spared its cold hand on our heart.

American Author

Alva Myrdal

Nobel was a genuine friend of peace. He even went so far as to believe that he had invented a tool of destruction, dynamite, which would make war so senseless that it would become impossible. He was wrong.

Swedish Diplomat

Sajid Khan

The moment any film has song and dance sequences - where any time any character can start singing and dancing without any explanation - it can turn into a senseless film.

William Penn

Much reading is an oppression of the mind, and extinguishes the natural candle, which is the reason of so many senseless scholars in the world.

English Leader

Haider al-Abadi

We cannot stop senseless violence without the rule of law and security forces that represent and respect every segment of society.

Iraqi Politician

Rollo May

A myth is a way of making sense in a senseless world. Myths are narrative patterns that give significance to our existence.

American Psychologist

Philip K. Dick

The ultimate problem confronting me all my life has been the senseless injury to and neglect of my sister.
