Misunderstanding Quotes

One usually understands the art of the past by applying the conventions of the present thus misunderstanding the art of the past Picture Quote #1

The colossal misunderstanding of our time is the assumption that insight will work with people who are unmotivated to change Picture Quote #1

The fundamental misunderstanding of humanity is believing that we can achieve all our desires without limitation Picture Quote #1

Suppose that a person writes what she must. That is only the first step of becoming a writer. The work must survive the moment of creation. It must get out to an audience. She or he must dare to show the work. She must risk ridicule, misunderstanding, scandal, condemnation, and what’s often worse, none of the above: silence. No attention at all Picture Quote #1

Wherever a story comes from, whether it is a familiar myth or a private memory, the retelling exemplifies the making of a connection from one pattern to another: a potential translation in which narrative becomes parable and the once upon a time comes to stand for some renascent truth. This approach applies to all the incidents of everyday life: the phrase in the newspaper, the endearing or infuriating game of a toddler, the misunderstanding at the office. Our species thinks in metaphors and learns through stories Picture Quote #1
