  • Our band is very polarizing. There are people who absolutely can't stand us, and people who absolutely can't live without us. I'd rather spark those kind of polar-opposite feelings than have people be indifferent.

  • Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.

    Andy Warhol (2014). “The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again”, p.57, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
  • The world we live in is made up of polar opposites, black/white, male/female, night/day, and a human being who possesses both masculine and feminine – vulnerability and strength – is intriguing to us, whether they be a singer or actor or dancer, intrigues us, because THAT Is who we really are.

    Reddit AMA, www.reddit.com. September 17, 2014.
  • My life has been the polar opposite of safe, but I am proud of it and so is my son, and that is good enough for me. I would do it all over again without changing the beat, although I have never recommended it to others. That would be cruel and irresponsible and wrong, I think, and I am none of those things.

    Hunter S. Thompson (2011). “Kingdom of Fear: Loathsome Secrets of a Star-Crossed Child in the F”, p.22, Simon and Schuster
  • It often occurs that pride and selfishness are muddled with strength and independence. They are neither equal nor similar; in fact, they are polar opposites. A coward may be so cowardly that he masks his weakness with some false personification of power. He is afraid to love and to be loved because love tends to strip bare all emotional barricades. Without love, strength and independence are prone to losing every bit of their worth; they become nothing more than a fearful, intimidated, empty tent lost somewhere in the desert of self.

    Fear   Pride   Emotional  
    Criss Jami (2015). “Killosophy”, p.130, Criss Jami
  • Hillary Clinton has a real history of uniting people, of being able to work with both Republicans and Democrats, of trying to fight for people's equal rights. Whereas we really see the polar opposite in her opponent.

  • It's this simple law, which every writer knows, of taking two opposites and putting them in a room together. I love anything with Cartman and Butters at the same time, it's great.

    "Interview: Trey Parker and Matt Stone". Interview with Jeff Otto, www.ign.com. May 12, 2005.
  • Power at its best is love implementing the demand of justice.

    Power   Justice   Demand  
    Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (2013). “The Essential Martin Luther King, Jr.: "I Have a Dream" and Other Great Writings”, p.200, Beacon Press
  • What can i tell you about the choices we make? Fate reads like the polar opposite of decision, and so much of life reads like fate.

    Jeanette Winterson (2010). “Weight”, p.97, Canongate Books
  • The church must seek to be biblical rather than relevant. We are not going to leave a mark upon our culture because we have studied its ways and adapted ourselves to it. We are relevant when we reject the world outright and are its polar opposite! This present darkness provides a great opportunity for the church to be the salt of the earth, but if we mix with the very impurities we are supposed to expose... we are as useless as our culture already believes us to be.

  • On the surface, we're polar opposites. Under the skin, though, we're the same: people think they know what they're getting, and they're always wrong.

    Jodi Picoult (2009). “My Sister's Keeper - Movie Tie-In: A Novel”, p.93, Simon and Schuster
  • Freedom and relationship are polar opposites - they both exist on the same continuum. You DO want a relationship - and you DO want freedom - what you really want is BALANCE, you want wholeness.

    "Shakti Gawain Is Still ‘Living in the Light’". Interview with BJ Gallagher, www.huffingtonpost.com. September 5, 2012.
  • To contrast national solidarity and international cooperation as two opposites seems foolish to me.

    Stupid   Opposites   Two  
  • Love is without a doubt the laziest theory for the meaning of life, but when it actually comes a time to do it we find just enough energy to over-complicate life again. Any devil can love, whom he himself sees as, a good person who has treated him well, but to love also the polar opposite is what separates love from fickle emotions.

    Criss Jami (2015). “Killosophy”, p.96, Criss Jami
  • It's kind of strange to be a free soloist when you know so much about flying, because I'm playing two opposite games, or practicing two polar opposite arts. One is the art of not falling. The other one is flying. With both those things spinning in my mind, there's a lot to process and it's pretty mind-boggling.

  • Did everyone make the most ghastly blunders at regularly intervals through their life and live to regret them ever afterward? Was everyone's life filled with confusing and contradictory mix of guilt and innocence, hatred and love, concern and unconcern, and any number of other pairings of polar opposites? Or were most people one thing or the other - good or bad, cheerful or crotchety, generous or miserly, and so on.

  • How did thie person-someone I'd imagined would be my polar opposite-always seem to find the things that would make me the happiest?

    Kiera Cass (2013). “The Elite”, p.18, Harper Collins
  • The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.

    Andy Warhol (2014). “The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again”, p.57, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
  • I actually prefer getting into roles that are the polar opposite of me; that's why I've done so many dark and dreary things.

  • Mind is dual, it always divides things into polar opposites: the conqueror and the conquered, the observer and the observed, the object and the subject, the day and the night. It goes on dividing things which are not divided. Neither is the day divided from the night, nor is birth divided from death. They are one energy. But mind goes on dividing everything into polarities, opposites. Nothing is opposite in existence; every contradiction is only apparent. Deep down all contradictions are meeting together.

  • When I met you it was magic... We polar opposites, but attracted like we was magnets.

    Rap   Opposites   Hip Hop  
  • Fantasy love is much better than Reality Love.

    Andy Warhol (2014). “The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again”, p.57, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
  • Love and hate, despite their polar opposites, are both feelings that are induced by passion. I can handle that. It's the indifference I don't know how to process.

    Colleen Hoover (2013). “This Girl”, p.214, Simon and Schuster
  • Opposites may attract, but I wouldn't put my money on a relationship of financial opposites.

    Suze Orman (2005). “The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke”, p.350, Penguin
  • Rapping and singing are not two polar opposites. There's so much middle ground. And I think there's a lot of people who find that middle ground.

    Biography/Personal Quotes, www.imdb.com.
  • Passion and courtesy are two polar opposite traits that serve to balance each other into a full-blooded whole. Without socialization, passion is a crude barbarian, and without passion, the elegant and polite are dead. Allow both passion and courtesy into your life in equal measure, and be complete.

    Passion   Opposites   Two  
  • Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose... one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power have usually been contrasted as opposites --- polar opposites --- so that love is identified with a resignation of power, and power with a denial of love... What is needed is a realization that power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.

  • Psychologically, when you've been overweight you want to achieve the polar opposite.

    "The Brilliantly Weird, Abtastic World Of Post-Fame Craig David". Interview with Jamie Fullerton, www.buzzfeed.com. June 16, 2015.
  • People ask me what my greatest strengths are and I say perspective. The best way to get that is to meet people that are polar opposites; you learn the most from them. There are pieces of you that are inherently yours, but everything else is a collection of the things you’ve seen and the people you’ve met.

    Eddie Huang (2013). “Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir”, p.105, Spiegel & Grau
  • Anna is the only proof I have that I was born into this family. Instead of dropped off on the doorstep by some Bonnie and Clyde couple that ran off into the night. On the surface, we’re polar opposites. Under the skin, though, we’re the same: people think they know what they’re getting, and they’re always wrong. (Jesse)
