The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart. St. Jerome

Mr. Airplane Man--Jesus On The Mainline

"When I pronounce the word Future, the first syllable already belongs to the past. When I pronounce the word Silence, I destroy it." — Wisława Szymborska

"Poets are masters of us ordinary men, in knowledge of the mind, because they drink at streams which we have not yet made accessible to science." — Sigmund Freud

"From childhood I was compelled to concentrate attention upon myself. This caused me much suffering, but to my present view, it was a blessing in disguise for it has taught me to appreciate the inestimable value of introspection in the preservation of life, as well as a means of achievement. The pressure of occupation and the incessant stream of impressions pouring into our consciousness through all the gateways of knowledge make modern existence hazardous in many ways. Most persons are so absorbed in the contemplation of the outside world that they are wholly oblivious to what is passing on within themselves. The premature death of millions is primarily traceable to this cause. Even among those who exercise care, it is a common mistake to avoid imaginary, and ignore the real dangers. And what is true of an individual also applies, more or less, to a people as a whole." — Nikola Tesla

"The man who is swimming against the stream knows the strength of it." — Woodrow Wilson

"When you want to attract something into your life, make sure your actions don’t contradict your desires.. Think about what you have asked for, and make sure that your actions are mirroring what you expect to receive, and that they’re not contradicting what you‘ve asked for. Act as if you are receiving it. Do exactly what you would do if you were receiving it today, and take actions in your life to reflect that powerful expectation. Make room to receive your desires, and as you do, you are sending out that powerful signal of expectation. " — Rhonda Byrne

"One must shed the bad taste of wanting to agree with many. "Good" is no longer good when one's neighbor mouths it. And how should there be a "common good"! The term contradicts itself: whatever can be common always has little value. In the end it must be as it is and always has been: great things remain for the great, abysses for the profound, nuances and shudders for the refined, and, in brief, all that is rare for the rare." — Friedrich Nietzsche

It's a most distressing affliction to have a sentimental heart and a skeptical mind.

"Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well." — Voltaire

"Every traveler has a home of his own, and he learns to appreciate it the more from his wandering." — Charles Dickens

"To get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with." — Mark Twain

"Talent develops in solitude, character develops in the stream of life." — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"...in his heart of hearts he could almost wish that, when he was grown up, his life should consist of nothing but nonsense: just music, love, literature, carefree friendship, a life brimming with glorious, intoxicating Olympian nonsense." — Agnar Mykle

"Of course there is no formula for success, except perhaps an unconditional acceptance of life, and what it brings" — Arthur Rubinstein

"Why is love beyond all measure of other human possibilities so rich and such a sweet burden for the one who has been struck by it? Because we change ourselves into that which we love, and yet remain ourselves. Then we would like to thank the beloved, but find nothing that would do it adequately. We can only be thankful to ourselves. Love transforms gratitude into faithfulness to ourselves and into an unconditional faith in the Other. Thus love steadily expands its most intimate secret. Closeness here is existence in the greatest distance from the other- the distance that allows nothing to dissolve - but rather presents the “thou” in the transparent, but “incomprehensible” revelation of the “just there”. That the presence of the other breaks into our own life - this is what no feeling can fully encompass. Human fate gives itself to human fate, and it is the task of pure love to keep this self-surrender as vital as on the first day." — Martin Heidegger

"Whenever you think or you believe or you know, you're a lot of other people: but the moment you feel, you're nobody-but-yourself." — E.E. Cummings

Life isn't as serious as my mind makes it out to be.

"The human condition: lost in thought."

"Color directly influences the soul. Color is the keyboard, the eyes are the hammers, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another purposively, to cause vibrations in the soul." — Wassily Kandinsky

"In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty." — Christopher Morley

"I don't believe in greatness that is bestowed as a rare gift to a few lucky ones. Rather, I think all people have greatness inside them. It is just a matter of persistence--sticking to what you have envisioned until it is reality. I have a deep conviction that everyone, including you, has been given exactly the right set of gifts to fulfill some magnificent purpose in life. Greatness must simply be chosen. And if you choose it, it will happen." — Ilchi Lee

"Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string. Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages... In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts: they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty. The power which resides in him is new in nature, and none but he knows what that is which he can do, nor does he know until he has tried" — Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Color is all. When color is right, form is right. Color is everything, color is vibration like music; everything is vibration." — Marc Chagall

"Something in me vibrates to a dusky, dreamy smell of dying moons and shadows." — Zelda Fitzgerald

"Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from yourself." — Rumi

"Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy." — Albert Einstein

"We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aids, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn, which does not forsake us even in our soundest sleep. I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by a conscious endeavour. It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts." — Henry David Thoreau

"There are no bad pictures; that's just how your face looks sometimes." — Abraham Lincoln

"Power, time, gravity, love. The forces that really kick ass are all invisible." — David Mitchell

"In magic - and in life - there is only the present moment, the now. You can't measure time the way you measure the distance between two points. 'Time' doesn't pass. We human beings have enormous difficulty in focusing on the present; we're always thinking about what we did, about how we could have done it better, about the consequences of our actions, and about why we didn't act as we should have. Or else we think about the future, about what we're going to do tomorrow, what precautions we should take, what dangers await us around the next corner, how to avoid what we don't want and how to get what we have always dreamed of." — Paulo Coelho

"We can always choose to perceive things differently. We can focus on what's wrong in our life, or we can focus on what's right." — Marianne Williamson

"To create the life of your dreams, the time has come for you to love You. Focus on Your joy. Do all the things that make You feel good. Love You, inside and out. Everything will change in your life, when you change the inside of you. Allow the Universe to give you every good thing you deserve, by being a magnet to them all. To be a magnet for every single thing you deserve, you must be a magnet of love." — Rhonda Byrne

"When we're focused on what we want, things begin to slot perfectly into place." — Paulo Coelho

Instead of focusing on how much you can accomplish, focus on how much you can absolutely love what you’re doing.

"Patience is power. Patience is not an absence of action; rather it is "timing" it waits on the right time to act, for the right principles and in the right way." — Fulton J. Sheen

"Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and fans the bonfire." — François de La Rochefoucauld

"Purity of Heart Is to Will One Thing" — Søren Kierkegaard

"Don't forget to love yourself." — Søren Kierkegaard

"Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused." — Paulo Coelho

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." — Socrates

"We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust." — Rumi

"The mind is like a richly woven tapestry in which the colors are distilled from the experiences of the senses, and the design drawn from the convolutions of the intellect. " — Carson McCullers

"I'm not explaining this right. What happened was this. There were these beautiful feelings and loose little pleasures inside me. And this woman was something like an assembly line for my soul. I run these little pieces of myself through her and I come out complete. Now do you follow me?" — Carson McCullers

"Look well into thyself; there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look." — Marcus Aurelius

"Taking part in your own creation is as simple as changing your mind. The way you think literally creates your everyday reality. Obsessive and negative thinking fosters a negative or even hostile lifestyle. Positive and constructive thoughts create happiness and contentment in the same manor. The fortunate thing for us is that the frequency wave of a positive thought far exceeds that of a negative one, so even if we suffer through a bout of depression or anger, a few positive thoughts can easily reverse the damage we have created in ourselves" — Gary Hopkins
