perception quotes
Alexis Carrel:
Intuition comes very close to clairvoyance; it appears to be the extrasensory perception of reality.
Anne Frank:
In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death.
Christopher Morley:
There was so much handwriting on the wall that even the wall fell down.
Demosthenes:
Small opportunities are often the beginning of great enterprises.
Helen Keller:
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched ... but are felt in the heart.
John Ruskin:
All violent feelings have the same effect. They produce in us a falseness in all our impressions of external things, which I would generally characterize as the pathetic fallacy.
Katherine Anne Porter:
I don't believe in intuition. When you get sudden flashes of perception, it is just the brain working faster than usual. But you've been getting ready to know it for a long time, and when it comes, you feel you've known it always.
Maria Mitchell:
We have a hunger of the mind which asks for knowledge of all around us, and the more we gain, the more is our desire; the more we see, the more we are capable of seeing.
Rachel Carson:
If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds must grow.
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.
Rudolf Arnheim:
All perceiving is also thinking, all reasoning is also intuition, all observation is also invention.
