Love is that enviable state that knows no envy or vanity, only empathy and a longing to be greater than oneself (Oneself Quotes)
To suppress the grief, the pain, is to condemn oneself to a living death. Living fully means feeling fully; it means becoming completely one with what you are experiencing and not holding it at arm’s length (Oneself Quotes)
Talent I say is what an actor needs. And talent is faith in oneself, one’s own powers (Oneself Quotes)
One has to believe in what one is doing, one has to commit oneself inwardly, in order to do painting. Once obsessed, one ultimately carries it to the point of believing that one might change human beings through painting. But if one lacks this passionate commitment, there is nothing left to do. Then it is best to leave it alone (Oneself Quotes)
In the brush doing what it is doing, it will stumble on what one could not do by oneself (Oneself Quotes)
The sort of dependence that results from exchange, i.e., from commercial transactions, is a reciprocal dependence. We cannot be dependent upon a foreigner without his being dependent on us. Now, this is what constitutes the very essence of society. To sever natural interrelations is not to make oneself independent, but to isolate oneself completely (Oneself Quotes)
Facts, and facts alone, are the foundation of science... When one devotes oneself to experimental research it is in order to augment the sum of known facts, or to discover their mutual relations (Oneself Quotes)
It is more important to have beauty in one’s equations than to have them fit experiment... It seems that if one is working from the point of view of getting beauty in one’s equations, and if one has really a sound insight, one is on a sure line of progress. If there is not complete agreement between the results of one’s work and experiment, one should not allow oneself to be too discouraged, because the discrepancy may well be due to minor features that are not properly taken into account and that will get cleared up with further developments of the theory (Oneself Quotes)
In art one is concerned with the condition of the spirit for three quarters of the time; one must therefore care for oneself if he wishes to make something great and lasting (Oneself Quotes)
Suicide is unspeakable, and to speak it is somehow to bring it into a human, imaginable sphere, even if only in the moment of speaking. The need to tell is both a need to tell oneself and a need to be heard... Telling and being heard are the first steps toward reconnection (Oneself Quotes)
To be oneself is being neither under bond nor borrowed nor sold nor hired. To be, means to be spiritually free (Oneself Quotes)
One must never forbid oneself anything. One must also be able to go back, one must always be able to change (Oneself Quotes)
In order to turn natural history into a true science, one would have to devote oneself to investigations capable of telling us not the particular shape of such and such an animal, but the general procedures of nature in the animal’s production and preservation (Oneself Quotes)
The fascination of any search after truth lies not in the attainment, which at best is found to be very relative, but in the pursuit, where all the powers of the mind and character are brought into play and are absorbed by the task. One feels oneself in contact with something that is infinite and one finds joy that is beyond expression in sounding the abyss of science and the secrets of the infinite mind (Oneself Quotes)
We are many small puppets moved by fate and fortune through strings unseen by us; therefore, if it is so as I think, one has to prepare oneself with a good heart and indifference to accept things coming towards us, because they cannot be avoided, and to oppose them requires a violence that tears our souls too deeply, and it seems that both fortune and men are always busy in affairs for our dislike because the former is blind and the latter only think of their interest (Oneself Quotes)
In the range of my character at any given moment, I have acted in the only way it seemed to me I could have acted. This in no way means that I have done what was right; only what was possible for me. Sometimes I have done what I knew was wrong, and have rationalized. But rationalization is a form of desperation. It takes kindness to forgive oneself for one’s life (Oneself Quotes)
A book is so much a part of oneself that in delivering it to the public one feels as if one were pushing one’s own child out into the traffic (Oneself Quotes)
The current disfavor into which socialism has fallen has spurred... the frenzy to proclaim oneself a liberal. Many writers today have recourse to the strategem of inventing for oneself a liberalism according to one’s own tastes and passing it off as an evolution from past ideas (Oneself Quotes)
I feel like a small battlefield in which the problems, or some of the problems, of our time are being fought out. All one can hope to do is keep oneself humbly available, to allow oneself to be a battlefield. After all, the problems must be accommodated, have somewhere to struggle and come to rest and we, poor little humans, must put our inner space at their service and not run away (Oneself Quotes)
In true courage there is always an element of choice, of an ethical choice, and of anguish, and also of action and deed. There is always a flame of spirit in it, a vision of some necessity higher than oneself (Oneself Quotes)
Love really is the answer to human problems: love of oneself, love of others, love of where one is, love of what one is doing, love of nature, love of life, love of the world, love of spirit in all its wonder and splendor. Love sets our energy free. It opens us and puts us in a flow with spirit and life on many levels. Love is the true secret behind manifestation (Oneself Quotes)
In the case of pilots, it is a little touch of madness that drive us to go beyond all known bounds. Any search into the unknown is an incomparable exploitation of oneself (Oneself Quotes)
The feeling of losing oneself in somebody’s arms, yet at the same time finding oneself there, is irreplaceable. Nothing compares to the intensity of that feeling (Oneself Quotes)
The outflow that comes from giving of oneself opens the door to spiritual unfoldment while the attitude of taking locks it (Oneself Quotes)
The greatest evil that one has to fight constantly, every minute of the day until one dies, is the worst part of oneself (Oneself Quotes)
Revolution is a serious thing, the most serious thing about a revolutionarys life. When one commits oneself to the struggle, it must be for a lifetime (Oneself Quotes)
I create enclosed spaces mainly by means of thick concrete walls. The primary reason is to create a place for the individual, a zone for oneself within society. When the external factors of a city’s environment require the wall to be without openings, the interior must be especially full and satisfying (Oneself Quotes)
Profound boredom, drifting here and there in the abysses of our existence like a muffling fog, removes all things and men and oneself along with it into a remarkable indifference. This boredom reveals being as a whole (Oneself Quotes)
If there is anything good about exile, it is that it teaches one humility. It accelerates one’s drift into isolation, an absolute perspective. Into the condition at which all one is left with is oneself and one’s language, with nobody or nothing in between. Exile brings you overnight where it would normally take a lifetime to go (Oneself Quotes)
Take what you can yourself, and don’t let others get you into their hands; to belong to oneself, that is the whole thing in life (Oneself Quotes)
