Quotations regarding 'Accidents'

Choose a letter: 
I would not wish to imply that most industrial accidents are due to intemperance. But, certainly, temperance has never failed to reduce their number.
William Lyon Mackenzie King, Canadian Politician (1874-1950)
Without the meditative background that is criticism, works become isolated gestures, historical accidents, soon forgotten.
Milan Kundera, Czechoslovakian Writer (1929-  )
I stop and look at traffic accidents. I won't hang around, but when I hear something is terrible, as bad as it is, I've gotta look at it.
Norman Lear, American Producer (1922-  )
The whole thing about making films in an organic film on location is that it's not all about characters, relationships and themes, it's also about place and the poetry of place. It's about the spirit of what you find, the accidents of what you stumble across.
Mike Leigh, British Director (1943-  )
The concept of reason itself appears as an artificial attempt to separate intellectual powers from the frustrations, emotions, and accidents which cause events; the concept of reason is viewed as facade to prevent change.
Edward Levi, American Public Servant (1911-2000)
We have all read tragic stories in our local papers about gun accidents as a result of misuse. As lawmakers we can better promote safety and responsibility by encouraging gun owners to purchase gun safes to store firearms and keep them from falling into the wrong hands.
Ron Lewis, American Politician (1946-  )
Communities and neighborhoods are affected. Idling trains, traffic backups, grade crossing accidents and other safety issues all affect the quality of life in our neighborhoods.
Bill Lipinski, American Politician (1937-  )
I want to be remembered for the work that I've done, rather than the car accidents that I've gotten into, the men that I've not dated - or the man that I have.
Lindsay Lohan, American Actress (1986-  )
Bad as was being shot by some of our own troops in the battle of the Wilderness, - that was an honest mistake, one of the accidents of war, - being shot at, since the war, by many officers, was worse.
James Longstreet, American Soldier (1821-1904)
Ski racing, especially downhill, is a dangerous activity and there are many accidents. It would be really too bad to lose everything because of a crash.
Hermann Maier, Austrian Athlete (1972-  )
Fathers are biological necessities, but social accidents.
Margaret Mead, American Scientist (1901-1978)
Spirit of place! It is for this we travel, to surprise its subtlety; and where it is a strong and dominant angel, that place, seen once, abides entire in the memory with all its own accidents, its habits, its breath, its name.
Alice Meynell, English Poet (1847-1922)
Accidents will happen in the best regulated families.
John Dos Passos, American Novelist (1896-1970)
Did you ever observe to whom the accidents happen? Chance favors only the prepared mind.
Louis Pasteur, French Scientist (1822-1895)
I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.
Pablo Picasso, Spanish Artist (1881-1973)
Man never legislates, but destinies and accidents, happening in all sorts of ways, legislate in all sorts of ways.
Plato, Greek Philosopher
Accidents, try to change them - it's impossible. The accidental reveals man.
J. B. Priestley, British Writer (1894-1984)
No, I think most astronauts recognize that the space shuttle program is very high-risk, and are prepared for accidents.

Some accidents there are in life that a little folly is necessary to help us out of.

The recent history of Ukraine is replete with dead journalists, beaten journalists, news agencies being shut down, and politicians being injured or killed. Most are killed in mysterious auto accidents.
Bob Schaffer, American Politician (1962-  )
