  • All men, and all created nature, have been at work, from the beginning of time to this day, to produce the circumstances which now influence our actions. AS soon as an act has been performed, it becomes independent of the individual performing it, and forthwith gives birth to some other act, which last gives birth to still another, and so they continue, and will continue, until the law of cause and effect shall cease to operate.

    William Batchelder Greene (1843). “The Doctrine of Life: With Some of Its Theological Applications”, p.7
  • I don't walk around with fear. I walk around with strength. I believe in cause and effect.

    "Biography/ Personal Quotes". www.imdb.com.
  • The split in America, rather than simply economic, is between those who embrace reason, who function in the real world of cause and effect, and those who, numbed by isolation and despair, now seek meaning in a mythical world of intuition, a world that is no longer reality-based, a world of magic.

    Chris Hedges (2008). “American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War on America”, p.39, Simon and Schuster
  • When we do align with it, we thrive. And when we do not, we suffer. This is not "punishment." It is merely the Law of Cause and Effect. With each thought we think, we either align with universal love, or we disconnect ourselves from it. Whichever is our choice determines whether we then feel connected to, or disconnected, from our own true Selves.

    FaceBook post by Marianne Williamson from Apr 23, 2013
  • Synchronicity is a term used by Carl Jung to describe coincidences that are related by meaningfulness rather than by cause and effect.

    David Richo (2007). “The Power of Coincidence: How Life Shows Us What We Need to Know”, p.7, Shambhala Publications
  • Men have been found to deny woman intellect; they have credited her with instinct, with intuition, with a capacity to correlate cause and effect much as a dog connects its collar with a walk.

  • Economics is a study of cause-and-effect relationships in an economy. It's purpose is to discern the consequences of various ways of allocating resources which have alternative uses. It has nothing to say about philosophy or values, anymore than it has to say about music or literature.

    Thomas Sowell (2000). “Basic Economics: A Citizen's Guide to the Economy”, Basic Civitas Books
  • When we both experienced the love that consumes, we shared in the Absolute. The Absolute shows each of us who we really are; it is an enormous web of cause and effect, where every small gesture made by one person affects the life of someone else. This morning, that slice of the Absolute was still very much alive in my soul. I was seeing not only you but everything there is in the world, unlimited by space or time.

    Morning   Space   Soul  
    Paulo Coelho (1992). “The diary of a magus”, Harpercollins
  • And once again I think about how people use the devil as an alias for the things they fear. The cause and effect is backward. The devil doesn't make anyone do anything. People just do things and blame the devil after.

    Thinking   People   Devil  
    David Levithan (2013). “Every Day”, p.89, Egmont UK
  • I've got the greatest job in the world. There's no other job in government where cause and effect is so tightly coupled where you can make a difference every day in so many different ways and in so many different people's lives. It's a great challenge.

  • All of life presents itself as a cycle of cause and effect. When this cycle is negative, there are three ways to change. You can change the cause, change the effect, or choose the most powerful option become the cause!

  • What people fear most about tragedy is its randomness - a taxi cab jumps the curb and hits a pedestrian, a gun misfires and kills a bystander. Better to have some rational cause and effect between incident and injury. And if cause and effect aren't possible, better that there at least be some reward for all the suffering.

  • General Systems Theory, a related modern concept [to holism], says that each variable in any system interacts with the other variables so thoroughly that cause and effect cannot be separated. A simple variable can be both cause and effect. Reality will not be still. And it cannot be taken apart! You cannot understand a cell, a rat, a brain structure, a family, a culture if you isolate it from its context. Relationship is everything.

  • A child gets vaccinated and soon after, autism symptoms emerge. The apparent cause-and-effect is understandable but erroneous - more a coincidence of the calendar and childhood developmental stages than anything else, as repeated and exhaustive studies have shown.

  • The forgetting of the history of marginalized groups is both a cause and effect of their marginalization.

    History   Groups   Causes  
  • The cultivation - even celebration - of victimhood by intellectuals, tort lawyers, politicians and the media is both cause and effect of today's culture of complaint.

    George Will (2008). “One Man's America: The Pleasures and Provocations of Our Singular Nation”, p.175, Crown Forum
  • Direct interference in a person's life does not enter our scope of activity, nor, on the other, tralatitiously speaking, hand, is his destiny a chain of predeterminate links: some 'future' events may be linked to others, O.K., but all are chimeric, and every cause-and-effect sequence is always a hit-and-miss affair, even if the lunette has actually closed around your neck, and the cretinous crowd holds its breath.

    Destiny   Hands   Missing  
    Vladimir Vladimirovich Nabokov (1972). “Transparent things: a novel”, McGraw-Hill Companies
  • Cause and effect, the riddle of all history, is a particular devil in financial history; and never more so than today, where entire classes of security are collapsing not on public exchanges and stock-tickers but because there are no markets to establish prices this side of nothing.

    "Greed and amnesia: the devils in financial history". www.theguardian.com. October 10, 2008.
  • On this simple unit-system [of building blocks] ruled on the low table-top all these forms were combined by the child into imaginative patter. Design was recreation! ...The virtue of all this lay in the awakening of the childmind to rhythmic structure in Nature - giving the child a sense of innate cause-and-effect otherwise far beyond child-comprehension.

  • Boredom and booze--cause and effect.

    Boredom   Causes   Booze  
    Samuel Hopkins Adams (1917). “Our Square and the People in it”
  • Every why hath a wherefore.

    William Shakespeare (1867). “The Works of William Shakespeare”, p.97
  • It is an enduring truth, which can never be altered, that every infraction of the Law of nature must carry its punitive consequences with it. We can never get beyond that range of cause and effect.

    Law   Causes   Range  
    Thomas Troward (2007). “The Edinburgh and Dore Lectures on Mental Science”, p.28, Cosimo, Inc.
  • Skepticism is unbelief in cause and effect.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (2010). “Essays and English Traits by Ralph Waldo Emerson: The Five Foot Shelf of Classics, Vol. V (in 51 Volumes)”, p.294, Cosimo, Inc.
  • God created the law of free will, and God created the law of cause and effect. And he himself will not violate the law. We need to be thinking less in terms of what God did and more in terms of whether or not we are following those laws.

    Freedom   Thinking   Law  
  • So many of man's actions appear to have no immediate consequence but, concealed, do their work until finally all catches up and forms a complex web of cause and effect.

    Men   Causes   Action  
  • I can't think in terms of journalism without thinking in terms of political ends. Unless there's been a reaction, there's been no journalism. It's cause and effect.

    Hunter S. Thompson (2012). “Ancient Gonzo Wisdom”, p.236, Pan Macmillan
  • Never can a new idea move within the law. It matters not whether that idea pertains to political and social changes or to any other domain of human thought and expression - to science, literature, music; in fact, everything that makes for freedom and joy and beauty must refuse to move within the law. How can it be otherwise? The law is stationary, fixed, mechanical, 'a chariot wheel' which grinds all alike without regard to time, place and condition, without ever taking into account cause and effect, without ever going into the complexity of the human soul.

    Moving   Expression   Law  
    Address to the Jury, delivered 9 July 1917, New York
  • In order to understand why one chooses to be a Tantric practitioner, there has to be an understanding of cause and effect, cyclic existence, the awareness that the reality that we think we are seeing is not reality as it really truly is. So enlightenment is seeing reality with bare awareness, non-conceptual reality.

  • Above all else, tragedy requires the finest appreciation by the writer of cause and effect.

    Arthur Miller (2016). “The Collected Essays of Arthur Miller”, p.9, Bloomsbury Publishing
  • I must start at the beginning, if I can find it. Beginnings are elusive things. Just when you think you have hold of one, you look back and see another, earlier beginning, and an earlier one before that. Even if you start with "Chapter One: I Am Born, " you still have the problem of antecedents, of cause and effect.
