One will meet, for example, the virtual assumption that what is relative to thought cannot be real. But why not, exactly? Red is relative to sight, but the fact that this or that is in that relation to vision that we call being red is not itself relative to sight; it is a real fact.

Charles Sanders Peirce

But everything is relative, Bertie... You, for instance, are my relative, and I am your relative.

P. G. Wodehouse

Age is relative. Experience is relative. And I think often intensity is confused with maturity.

Laura Marling

I am unpersuaded that relative poverty and hard work are greater adversities than relative affluence and free time.

Dallin H. Oaks

Fear is a relative thing; its effects are relative to power.

Sarah Hall

Of course, relative citation frequencies are no measure of relative importance. Who has not aspired to write a paper so fundamental that very soon it is known to everyone and cited by no one?

Abraham Pais

Both light and dark are eternity. Human beings assign relative values to colors, but beyond the relative, there just is - what in Zen we call "suchness".

Frederick Lenz

Truth is, of course, relative. But then, so is relative.

James Sallis

Over the past decade or so, you have seen the flip side of that as you've seen stock prices have come down a lot relative to gold. Now you are getting a change where people are more comfortable holding gold because in the rear-view mirror it doesn't look so bad for gold. Bonds have not come down as much relative to gold, but I think the bond bubble is going to burst and will be falling for years too. And gold will look that much better.

Peter Schiff

Those who have no absolute values cannot let the relative remain merely relative; they are always raising it to the level of the absolute.

Flannery O'Connor

It's possible to be a woman married to a very wealthy, powerful man but to be relatively disempowered. Not just relative to him, relative to a middle class woman who works.

Wednesday Martin

No matter how great the script, the actual film will only be a distant relative of it - it will never be an identical twin.

Peter Straughan

In addition to the problem of public confidence, hiring a relative also causes problems within the government organization. It can undermine the morale of government officials. It can cause confusion about what the lines of authority are; in other words, the relative may have a particular title, but many may perceive the relative's role as even more important than the title would suggest. It may be very difficult to say no to the president's son-in-law.

Kathleen Clark

The bookis a distant relative of the truth, and the film is a distant relative of the book.

Danny Porush

Whoever is my relative, I will not be nice to them.

George Lopez

It has become clear that America's civilian institutions of diplomacy and development have been chronically undermanned and underfunded for far too long - relative to what we spend on the military, and more important, relative to the responsibilities and challenges our nation has around the world.
