Emotion is the surest arbiter of a poetic choice, and it is the priest of all supreme unions in the mind. ~Max Eastman

I love emotion. I love being in love. And showing that on screen. I think it's wonderful. ~Dennis Haysbert
#quotes #dennis-haysbert #emotions #love #entertainment
But slaves that once conceive the glowing thought of freedom, in that hope itself possess. All that the contest calls for; spirit, strength. The scorn of danger, and united hearts. The surest presage of the good they seek. ~William Cowper

Deep doubts, deep wisdom; small doubts, little wisdom. ~Chinese Proverb

All life is rife with possibilities. Seeds have possibilities, but all their tomorrows are caught by the patterning of their life cycle. Animals have possibilities that are greater than that of a fir tree or a blade of grass. Still, though, for most animals, the pattern of instinct, the patterns of their lives, are very strong. Humanity has a far greater range of possibilities, especially the very young. Who will children grow up to be? Who will they marry, what will they believe, what will they create? Creation is a very powerful seed of possibility. ~Patricia Briggs

I love therapy! There's nothing like talking to someone who has no emotional tie to your life. ~Eva Mendes
#quotes #eva-mendes #therapy #emotions
I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success; such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything. ~Nikola Tesla
#quotes #nikola-tesla #motivation #success
To create worry humans elongate fear with anticipation and memory, expand it in imagination and fuel it with emotion. The uniquely human mental process called worrying depends upon having a brain that can reason, remember, reflect, feel, and imagine. Only humans have a brain big enough to do this simultaneously and do it well. ~Edward Hallowell
#quotes #edward-hallowell #mind #memories #imagination
For piety lies not in being often seen turning a veiled head to stones, nor in approaching every altar, nor in lying prostrate before the temples of the gods, nor in sprinkling altars with the blood of beasts but rather in being able to look upon all things with a mind at peace. ~Lucretius

My efforts in Congress are guided by the belief that environmental preservation and restoration are a critical part of the legacy we leave to future generations. ~Sue Kelly

Feelings are determined by how one chooses to respond to various situations and events. ~Ralph Marston

The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases. ~Thomas Jefferson

Anger is a bad counselor. ~French Proverb
#proverbs #french-proverbs #emotions #anger
The aim of all struggles for liberty is to keep in bounds the armed defenders of peace, the governors and their constables. The political concept of the individual's freedom means: freedom from arbitrary action on the part of the police power. ~Ludwig von Mises

Long-term relationships are an everyday choice. It is harder to be in a marriage than it is to bounce from one relationship to the next. ~Pink
#quotes #pink #relationship
There will be many times in your lives; at school, and more particularly when you are a grown up; when people will distract or divert you from what needs to be done. You may even welcome the distraction. But if you use it as an excuse for not doing what you suppose to do, you can blame no one but yourself. If you truly wish to accomplish something, you should allow nothing to stop you, and chances are you'll succeed. ~Julie Andrews
#quotes #julie-andrews #action #distraction
If you're serious, you really understand that it's important that you laugh as much as possible and admit that you're the funniest person you ever met. You have to laugh. Admit that you're funny. Otherwise, you die in solemnity. ~Maya Angelou

Wisdom is always an overmatch for strength. ~Phil Jackson

The necessity for "professionals" in the entertainment industry is being constantly challenged. ~Jason Alexander
#quotes #jason-alexander #entertainment #professionalism
Something will be there when the flood recedes. We know that. It will be those people now standing in the water, and on those rooftops, many black, many poor. Homeless. Overlooked. And it will be New Orleans, though its memory may be shortened, its self-gaze and eccentricity scoured out so that what's left is a city more like other cities, less insular, less self-regarding, but possibly more self-knowing after today. A city on firmer ground. ~Richard Ford
