As a Harvard Ph.D. economist and U.C. Irvine professor, Dr. Navarro has been instrumental in challenging the prevailing Washington orthodoxy on so-called free trade.

Sean Spicer

An understanding of Sor Juana's work must include an understanding of the prohibitions her work confronts. Her speech leads us to what cannot be said, what cannot be said to an orthodoxy, the orthodoxy to a tribunal, and the tribunal to a sentence.

Octavio Paz

I am convinced that the world-wide protests during the Rivonia trial saved Mandela and his fellow-accused from a death sentence. But in South Africa, a life sentence means imprisonment until death - or until the defeat of the government which holds these men prisoner.

Oliver Tambo

After years spent in Washington, I have become more aware than ever of the government's ineptness and the likelihood of its making mistakes. I no longer trust the U.S. government to invoke and carry out a death sentence under any conditions.

Ron Paul

Many men would take the death-sentence without a whimper, to escape the life-sentence which fate carries in her other hand.

Orthodoxy is the death of intelligence.

Bertrand Russell

Writing is linear and sequential; Sentence B must follow Sentence A, and Sentence C must follow Sentence B, and eventually you get to Sentence Z. The hard part of writing isn't the writing; it's the thinking. You can solve most of your writing problems if you stop after every sentence and ask: What does the reader need to know next?

William Zinsser

The creative members of an orthodoxy, any orthodoxy, ultimately outgrow their disciplines.

Orthodoxy means not thinking--not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness.

George Orwell

Where orthodoxy is optional, orthodoxy will sooner or later be proscribed.

Richard John Neuhaus

Orthodoxy is the grave of intelligence, no matter what orthodoxy it may be.

Bertrand Russell

I feel at various times in my life that I've been at a point where I had to choose between a death sentence and a life sentence. And I want to live. What do I do to live? What do I do to be vital? And the answer is always creativity.

Jodie Foster

Orthodoxy, my Lord,: said Bishop Warburton, in a whisper, — orthodoxy is my doxy, — heterodoxy is another man's doxy.

Joseph Priestley

A death sentence will be issued, a death sentence will be implemented. A life sentence will be issued, a life sentence will be implemented.

Mohammed Morsi

Strict orthodoxy can cost too much if it has to be bought at the price of love. All the orthodoxy in the world will never take the place of love.

William Barclay

People have fallen into a foolish habit of speaking of orthodoxy as something heavy, humdrum, and safe. There never was anything so perilous or so exciting as orthodoxy. It was sanity: and to be sane is more dramatic than to be mad.

Gilbert K. Chesterton
