My heart stopped. It just stopped beating. And for the first time in my life, I had that feeling. You know, like the world is moving all around you, all beneath you, all inside you, and you’re floating. Floating in midair. And the only thing keeping you from drifting away is the other person’s eyes. They’re connected to yours by some invisible physical force, and they hold you fast while the rest of the world swirls and twirls and falls completely away (Physical Quotes)
Real life is physical. Give me books instead. Give me the invisibility of the contents of books, the thoughts, the ideas, the images. Let me become part of a book... an intertextual being: a book cyborg, or, considering that books aren’t cybernetic, perhaps a bibliorg (Physical Quotes)

A journey, after all, neither begins in the instant we set out, nor ends when we have reached our door step once again. It starts much earlier and is really never over, because the film of memory continues running on inside of us long after we have come to a physical standstill. Indeed, there exists something like a contagion of travel, and the disease is essentially incurable (Physical Quotes)
The inmost spirit of poetry, in other words, is at bottom, in every recorded case, the voice of pain – and the physical body, so to speak, of poetry, is the treatment by which the poet tries to reconcile that pain with the world (Physical Quotes)
For it is only habit and memory that dulls the physical passion. Without memory, each night is the first night, each morning is the first morning, each kiss and touch are the first (Physical Quotes)
... they told me of color, that it was an illusion of the eye, an event in the perceiver’s mind, not in the object; they told me that color had no reality; indeed, they told me that color did not inhere in a physical body any more than pain was in a needle. And then they imprisoned me in darkness; and though there was no color there, I still was black, and they still were white; and for that, they bound and gagged me (Physical Quotes)
A book, being a physical object, engenders a certain respect that zipping electrons cannot. Because you cannot turn a book off, because you have to hold it in your hands, because a book sits there, waiting for you, whether you think you want it or not, because of all these things, a book is a friend. It’s not just the content, but the physical being of a book that is there for you always and unconditionally (Physical Quotes)
If women are differentiated only by superficial physical attributes, men appear more individual and irreplaceable than they really are (Physical Quotes)
We’re told that men are strong and brave, but I think women know how to endure, accept defeat and bear physical and mental agony much better than men (Physical Quotes)
An adventure is never an adventure when it happens. An adventure is simply physical and emotional discomfort recollected in tranquility (Physical Quotes)
The cynicism that regards hero worship as comical is always shadowed by a sense of physical inferiority (Physical Quotes)
Consciousness cannot be accounted for in physical terms. For consciousness is absolutely fundamental. It cannot be accounted for in terms of anything else (Physical Quotes)
There is a relationship between the mind and the body that can both create a physical condition and enable us to recover from it (Physical Quotes)
Dignity is as essential to human life as water, food, and oxygen. The stubborn retention of it, even in the face of extreme physical hardship, can hold a man’s soul in his body long past the point at which the body should have surrendered it (Physical Quotes)
Physical attraction was about aesthetics, not sexual performance, not mental stimulation. Without a mental connection, a remarkable sexual performance yielded no lifelong guarantees. It was only lust. And lust was not love (Physical Quotes)
We’re always sick and we just don’t know it. What we mean by health is only when our constant physical deterioration is undetectable (Physical Quotes)
Such physical matters were nice, yet, to him, intelligence and passion born of living, the ability to move and be moved by subtleties of the mind and spirit, were what really counted (Physical Quotes)
Be fearless in trying new things, whether they are physical, mental, or emotional, since being afraid can challenge you to go to the next level (Physical Quotes)
Gardening is akin to writing stories. No experience could have taught me more about grief or flowers, about achieving survival by going, your fingers in the ground, the limit of physical exhaustion (Physical Quotes)
She now knew that the death she feared might not be a physical one, that it could be death of the will, the soul, the mind, the laws, and thus not death, but a perpetual dying (Physical Quotes)
If a man has to make a woman the center of his love, why should he integrate animality into this sacred human emotion?... Is love incompelete without it?... Is love the name of physical excersize? (Physical Quotes)
It is a misconception to think that during evolution humans sacrificed physical skill in exchange for intelligence: wielding one’s body is a mental activity (Physical Quotes)
When people really hate one another, the tension within them can sometimes make itself felt throughout a room, like atmospheric waves, first hot, then cold, wafted backwards and forwards as if in an invisible process of air conditioning, creating a pervasive physical disturbance (Physical Quotes)
Megan could have kissed him. If there weren’t a million obstacles, both physical and psychological, in her way, of course (Physical Quotes)
Even when we’re with someone we love, we’re foolish enough to think of her body and soul as being separate. To stand before the person we love is not the same as loving her true self, for we are only apt to regard her physical beauty as the indispensable mode of her existence. When time and space intervene, it is possible to be deceived by both, but on the other hand, it is equally possible to draw twice as close to her real self (Physical Quotes)
Wellbeing is about the combination of our love for what we do each day, the quality of our relationships, the security of our finances, the vibrancy of our physical health, and the pride we take in what we have contributed to our communities. Most importantly, it’s about how these five elements interact (Physical Quotes)
I think it is a peculiarity of myself that I like to play about with equations, just looking for beautiful mathematical relations which maybe don’t have any physical meaning at all. Sometimes they do.At age 60 (Physical Quotes)
