Quotations regarding 'Behavior'

Choose a letter: 
The test of one's behavior pattern is their relationship to society, relationship to work and relationship to sex.

Freda Adler, American Educator
It is not so for art in appreciation because art is concerned with human behavior. And science is concerned with the behavior of metal or energy. It depends on what the fashion is. Now today it's energy. It's the same soul behind it. The same soul, you see.
Josef Albers, German Artist (1888-1976)
Many rock musicians are excellent cooks, I've found, and those that are prefer to eat their own cooking in the studio. I encourage this behavior as I also enjoy the benefits of fresh food.

I wanted to be a neurologist. That seemed to be the most difficult, most intriguing, and the most important aspect of medicine, which had links with psychology, aggression, behavior, and human affairs.
Roger Bannister, British Athlete (1929-  )
When I write, I am not giving a lecture, I am speculating on behavior. Sometimes this is dangerous, but it should be. As I say often, theatre is a dark place and we should keep the light out of it.
Howard Barker, British Playwright (1946-  )
I'm still strongly opposed to antismoking laws, strongly opposed to any law that regulates personal behavior.
John Perry Barlow, American Writer (1947-  )
Study the public behavior of top stars and you can detect a keen attentiveness to brand value.
Peter Bart, American Editor (1932-  )
Still, intuitive assumptions about behavior is only the starting point of systematic analysis, for alone they do not yield many interesting implications.
Gary Becker, American Economist (1930-  )
Beauty set up distance between other people and me. It warped their behavior.
Candice Bergen, American Actress (1946-  )
A country should be defended not by arms, but by ethical behavior.

Music is part of us, and either ennobles or degrades our behavior.

All the great legends are Templates for human behavior. I would define a myth as a story that has survived.
