I was forced to learn a lot about psychology as a player, and as a captain to get the best out of others. There's still a lot of scepticism about it in sport and the workplace, but dealing with fluctuations of form, and pressure, and being away from home are more important than your cover-drive.

Andrew Strauss

I have a very healthy dose of scepticism towards what identity is and what personas are, maybe because of my life journey. Identity is something so malleable.

A major problem for Black women, and all people of color, when we are challenged to oppose anti-Semitism, is our profound scepticism that white people can actually be oppressed.

Barbara Smith

Nothing fortifies scepticism more than the fact that there are some who are not sceptics; if all were so, they would be wrong.

Blaise Pascal

In government, you are pressed by the security agencies. They come to you with very good information, and they say, 'You need to do something.' So you do need the breath of scepticism, not cynicism, breathing on them.

David Blunkett

Scepticism and cynicism about politics is so great that one of the best counters to it is what you can do at a local level.

Ed Miliband

Oxford also taught me something else - it taught me scepticism.

Frank Scott

Scepticism is as important for a good journalist as it is for a good scientist.

Freeman Dyson

I'm always coming up against scepticism in my life.

Geri Halliwell

I always watched reality shows with scepticism.

Hamsalekha

The thing that worries me more than anything else is losing faith in the capacity of politics to change things. I don't mean scepticism, criticism, querying, but I do mean cynicism.

Hilary Benn

My scepticism of biography continues even though I keep doing it.

Janet Malcolm

Scepticism is a necessary and vital part of the journalist's toolkit. But when scepticism becomes cynicism it can close off thought and block the search for truth.

Jeremy Paxman

There is a lot of scepticism today as to whether memoir is real. But when fiction is done at a certain level there is scepticism as to whether it is really fiction.

Junot Diaz

Napoli have given me so much. After the initial scepticism, their fans appreciated me. I would like to give them a trophy back.

Kalidou Koulibaly

Scepticism may be evidence of a healthy and independent mindset; but conspiracism is a virus that feeds off insecurity and bitterness.

Mehdi Hasan

The three main sources of scepticism are first, that not every people desires freedom; second, that democracy in certain parts of the world would be dangerous; and third, that there is little the world's democracies can do to advance freedom outside their countries.

Natan Sharansky

This scepticism is the same scepticism I heard a generation ago in the USSR when few thought that a democratic transformation behind the iron curtain was possible.

Speaking personally as a filmmaker, I think encoded in Bond are a series of values about Britain, about the world, about masculinity, about power, about the empire that I don't share. Quite the reverse. Whereas in Bourne, I think encoded is much more scepticism. There's an us and a them, and Bourne is an us, whereas Bond is working for them.

Paul Greengrass

The more she rejected us the more convinced I was that she was another version of the real Molly, her disdain for authority, her scepticism that she had to do what the white man told her because it was good for her... She is Molly.
