Famous David Amerland Quotes

“The moment we remove the external world from our senses we’ve also removed a large chunk of how we feel inside ourselves. We don’t think with our brain, our brain thinks with the world. We also don’t feel with our body, our body feels with the world. We need the world to exist as feeling machines that think.”

“The brain works in a holistic, cooperative way that makes our basest desire or most abject fear as expressive of who we are as abstract thinking of the highest order. That means that we are all equal part snakes, monkeys, and spacemen.”

“We can think our selves thin and we can become stronger and faster through the power of our mind. At the same time it can trip us up, stop us from getting fitter and hold us back in our drive to get healthier and feel stronger.”
