Neale Donald Walsch Quotes

We always want to find good and bad guys, and I don't believe in that.

People who want to see things in stark dualities are not going to get much out of my music.

Someone once asked me if I was gay. I said, 'Do you think a three-letter word defines the complexity of my humanity?' I avoid the trap of easy definition.

There's nothing "wrong" with anything. "Wrong" is a relative term, indicating the opposite of that which you call "right." Yet, what is "right"? Can you be truly objective in these matters? Or are "right" and "wrong" simply descriptions overlaid on events and circumstances by you, out of your decision about them?

In a perfect world everything would be either black or white, right or wrong, and everyone would know the difference. But this isn't a perfect world. The problem is people who think it is.

My idea of what's good and bad and right and wrong is maybe greyer than most, and I like writing about that.

All I really care about is that I'm being honest and I'm real and I'm coming from a real place. There's a part of me that's a total cad and a part of me that's also a family man.

There's no good guys and bad guys.

I don't know why we have to put things in boxes of superlatives. That isolates them. Life is fluid, and the minute you start trying to put a line around something, it will deceive you and go away.

I don't think any of us like to be reduced to just one label.

To be a fashion critic is easy because you just say, 'I love it, I hate it,' but life is more than love and hate.

This is my favourite thing about being raised in Africa: we don't do labels very well; we don't do this, 'Oh, you're a Democrat; oh, you're a Republican.' Because we live in the real world.

If everything isn't black and white, I say, 'Why the hell not?'

'Right' and 'wrong' aren't words a linguist uses.

There are gray areas in everything.

Life is weird and complex but very simple at the same time. It's all about perception.

We grow up to respect the gray. Black or white, one or the other, is childish. It represents the worldview of someone who does not know the world.

Besides being a sportsman, I am also a human being.

Good or bad is what we tend to want to affix to people, but we're all complicated.

There are always two sides to a person. CL is me, and so is Chaelin.

In life, we are all more than one thing, but for some reason in movies, you're either this or that. It reduces the complexity of a human being in so many ways.

I really like blending two things together that are polar opposites. Because I feel like, in a large aspect, that's kinda like what I am.

There are always people who are desperate to put you in your one camp and never let you leave. The idea that you could be interested in the Yazidi community and also in lipstick blows people's minds. It's a really short-sighted, Stone Age attitude; it's boring, actually.

Let us not decide what is good, but let it be considered good not to decide it.

The problem, of course, was that people did not seem to understand the difference between right and wrong. They needed to be reminded about this, because if you left it to them to work out for themselves, they would never bother. They would just find out what was best for them, and then they would call that the right thing. That's how most people thought.
