The Mind Quotes

Superman can fly high way up in the sky ‘cause we believe he can. So what we choose to believe can always work out fine... It’s all in the mind Picture Quote #1

To achieve world government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of men, their individualism, loyalty to family traditions, national patriotism and religious dogmas Picture Quote #1

All human beings have an innate desire to overcome suffering, to find happiness. Training the mind to think differently, through meditation, is one important way to avoid suffering and be happy Picture Quote #1

A great rock is not disturbed by the wind; the mind of a wise man is not disturbed by either honor or abuse Picture Quote #1

All that is not useful in a picture is detrimental. A work of art must be harmonious in its entirety; for superfluous details would, in the mind of the beholder, encroach upon the essential elements Picture Quote #1

It is dangerous and harmful to be guided in our life’s course by hatreds and aversions, for they are wasteful of energy and limit and twist the mind and prevent it from perceiving the truth Picture Quote #1

If we only practice compassion on the mind level, we run a great risk of our compassion being just talk. As we know, talk is cheap. To develop true compassion we have to put our money where our mouth is Picture Quote #1

Seemingly minor yet persistent things penetrate the mind over time making it difficult to ever realize the impact; hence, though quite unfortunate, the most dangerous forms of corruption are those that are subtle and below the radar Picture Quote #1

To a person in love, the value of the individual is intuitively known. Love needs no logic for its mission. It roots in a bare wisdom that exists in senses more than mind, a wisdom that, in primitive form, evolved the mind which so often overlooks it Picture Quote #1

Our breath, like our heartbeat, is the most reliable rhythm in our lives. When we become attuned to this constant rhythm, our breath can gradually teach us to come back to the original silence of the mind Picture Quote #1

The mind is its own enemy, that fights itself with the innumerable pliant and ineluctable arms of the octopus Picture Quote #1

There is in every human being, I think, a native country of the mind, where, protected by inaccessible barriers, the sensitive dream life may exist safely Picture Quote #1

Music is the most absorbing of all the arts. It absorbs the mind of the artist, whether creator or executant, to the exclusion of every other consideration outside his own immediate necessities or desires Picture Quote #1

The world will be at war as long as the mind is at war with itself. If we can’t find peace within ourselves, where is the hope for peace in the world? Picture Quote #1

These visions which I saw were not in sleep nor in dreams, nor in my imagination nor by bodily eyes or outward ears nor in a hidden place; but in watching, aware with the pure eyes of the mind and inner ear of the heart Picture Quote #1

The mind is more vulnerable than the stomach, because it can be poisoned without feeling immediate pain Picture Quote #1

All phenomena of which we are aware take place in our own minds, and therefore the only thing we have to look at is the mind; which is a more constant quantity over all the species of humanity than is generally supposed Picture Quote #1

The nature of the mind is to jump all over the place, and it does, that’s why meditation is so important Picture Quote #1

Professors could silence me then; they had figures, diagrams, maps, books... I was learning that books and diagrams can be evil things if they deaden the mind of man and make him blind or cynical before subjection of any kind Picture Quote #1

A man sees only what concerns him... How much more, then, it requires different intentions of the eye and of the mind to attend to different departments of knowledge! How differently the poet and the naturalist look at objects! Picture Quote #1

... the more the mind dominates, the more the ego comes into play, and the further people depart from their true inner self. So all the technological advances in the world mean nothing if people feel a spiritual void inside of them Picture Quote #1

Idleness and constancy fix the mind to what it finds easy and agreeable. This habit always confines and cramps up our knowledge; and no one has ever taken the trouble to stretch and carry his understanding as far as it could go Picture Quote #1

My greatest challenge has been to change the mindset of people. Mindsets play strange tricks on us. We see things the way our minds have instructed our eyes to see Picture Quote #1

Seek ye first the good things of the mind, and the rest will either be supplied or its loss will not be felt Picture Quote #1

It is only necessary to make war with five things; with the maladies of the body, the ignorances of the mind, with the passions of the body, with the seditions of the city and the discords of families Picture Quote #1

Petting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer Picture Quote #1

Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find you have crossed the mountain. The mind does not create what it perceives, anymore than the eye creates the rose Picture Quote #1

Perception is a clash of mind and eye, the eye believing what it sees, the mind seeing what it believes Picture Quote #1

Ambition is to the mind what the cap is to the falcon; it blinds us first, and then compels us to tower by reason of our blindness Picture Quote #1
