Text Quotes
To me, the mind and body are one. I’m very transparent, in a way, and people can very easily make out what mood I’m in (The Mind Quotes)
Perhaps we become aware of our existence only when we feel on our skin the touch of a place that has no name, that connects us to the earliest time, to all the dead, to prehistory, when the mind first stood apart from the world, still unaware that it was orphaned (The Mind Quotes)
Time constricts and flattens, you know. It’s not evenly weighted. Certain moments linger in the mind and others disappear (The Mind Quotes)
A book is a private thing, citizen; it belongs to the one who writes it and to the one who reads it. Like the mind itself, a book is a private space. Within that space, anything is possible. The greatest evil and the greatest good (The Mind Quotes)
Chanting is a way of getting in touch with yourself. It’s an opening of the heart and letting go of the mind and thoughts. It deepens the channel of grace, and it’s a way of being present in the moment (The Mind Quotes)
Libraries shelter the spirit, provide food for the mind, and answer the questions raised by the problems of life. They have been the home of my heart since I was a very young child, in whatever place I happened to live (The Mind Quotes)
It’s difficult for the public to realize how powerful the mind is, and how much pain the mind can give you. When you’re depressed, it’s as though this committee has taken over your mind, leaving you one depressing thought after the other. You don’t shave, you don’t shower, you don’t brush your teeth. You don’t care. The one thing I did do, I still ate a little bit. But I didn’t have much of an appetite. I know a lot of people who say they didn’t eat at all (The Mind Quotes)
Reading is a pleasure of the mind, which means that it is a little like a sport: your eagerness and knowledge and quickness count for something. The fun of reading is not that something is told to you, but that you stretch your mind. Your own imagination works along with the authors, or even goes beyond his, yields the same or different conclusions, and your ideas develop as you understand his (The Mind Quotes)
No one will be much or little except in someone else’s mind, so be careful of the minds you get into (The Mind Quotes)
The mind is like dishwater, my friend. When it is agitated, it becomes difficult to see. But if you allow it to settle, the answer becomes clear (The Mind Quotes)
Even if your body doesn’t work the way it used to, the heart and the mind and the spirit are not diminished (The Mind Quotes)
The best way to deal with excessive thinking is to just listen to it, to listen to the mind. Listening is much more effective than trying to stop thought or cut it off (The Mind Quotes)
The body you’re given, the mind you’re given, the morality and the hang ups you’re given, they’re yours. Deal with it (The Mind Quotes)
Because powerful images are fixed in the mind more readily than words, the photographer needs no interpreter. A photograph means the same thing all over the world and no translator is required. Photography is truly a universal language, transcending all boundaries of race, politics and nationality (The Mind Quotes)
I can fool you because you’re a human. You have a wonderful human mind that works no different from my human mind. Usually when we’re fooled, the mind hasn’t made a mistake. It’s come to the wrong conclusion for the right reason (The Mind Quotes)
Technologies for stimulating the brain and controlling the mind can have benefits, but they have a dark side that military and intelligence planners have been exploiting for decades (The Mind Quotes)
Any profession of faith…entrusts the mind and heart to a truth that cannot be proven but can be lived (The Mind Quotes)
Minority conservatives hold a special place of gutter contempt in the minds of unhinged liberals, who can never accept the radical concept of a person of color rejecting identity politics (The Mind Quotes)
Liberty is not less a blessing, because oppression has so long darkened the mind that it can not appreciate it (The Mind Quotes)
With the beginning of a great and compassionate love, comes the growth of one’s heart, and with that, a profound inner change. The way to opening the mind is often first through the heart. And once is the mind and heart are open, so many things become possible (The Mind Quotes)
The body, the mind, and the spirit don’t form a pyramid, they form a circle. Each of them runs into the other two. The body isn’t below the mind and the spirit; from the point of view it’s between them. if you reside too much in the mind, then you get too abstract and cut off from the world. You long for the spiritual life, but you can’t get to it, and you fall into despair. The exercise of the senses frees you from abstraction and opens the way to transcendence (The Mind Quotes)
With the camera, it’s all or nothing. You either get what you’re after at once, or what you do has to be worthless. I don’t think the essence of photography has the hand in it so much. The essence is done very quietly with a flash of the mind, and with a machine. I think too that photography is editing, editing after the taking. After knowing what to take, you have to do the editing (The Mind Quotes)
Camera and eye are together a time machine with which the mind and human being can do the same kind of violence to time and space as dreams (The Mind Quotes)
Whenever a man can get hold of numbers, they are invaluable: if correct, they assist in informing his own mind, but they are still more useful in deluding the minds of others. Numbers are the masters of the weak, but the slaves of the strong (The Mind Quotes)
For in prosperity a man is often puffed up with pride, whereas tribulations chasten and humble him through suffering and sorrow. In the midst of prosperity the mind is elated, and in prosperity a man forgets himself; in hardship he is forced to reflect on himself, even though he be unwilling. In prosperity a man often destroys the good he has done; amidst difficulties he often repairs what he long since did in the way of wickedness (The Mind Quotes)
Then what shall I write? I can’t just write that this happened then this happened then this happened to boring infinitum. I’ll let my journal grow just like the mind does, just like a tree or beast does, just like life does. Why should a book tell a tale in a dull straight line? Words should wander and meander. They should fly like owls and flicker like bats and slip like cats. They should murmur and scream and dance and sing (The Mind Quotes)
Television is a triumph of equipment over people, and the minds that control it are so small that you could put them in a gnat’s navel with room left over for two caraway seeds and an agent’s heart (The Mind Quotes)
Politics is of the heart as well as of the mind. Many people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care (The Mind Quotes)
The printed page is a missionary that can go anywhere and do so at minimum cost. It enters closed lands and reaches all strata of society. It does not grow weary. It needs no furlough. It lives longer than any missionary. It never gets ill. It penetrates through the mind to the heart and conscience. It has and is producing results everywhere. It has often lain dormant yet retained its life and bloomed years later (The Mind Quotes)
If you want to realize the truth, don’t be for or against. The struggle between good and evil is the primal disease of the mind (The Mind Quotes)
