Quote by Daniel Goleman

“Situações que não exigem uma constante focagem na tarefa – em particular quanto às tarefas aborrecidas ou rotineiras – deixam a mente livre para vaguear. (…) Dado que o sonhar acordado compete pela energia neuronal com o foco em tarefas e a perceção sensorial, não admira que, quando sonhamos acordados, cometamos mais erros em tudo aquilo que exija mais da nossa atenção focada.”

“Fazer amor é outra das atividades em que ser demasiado analítico só atrapalha. (…) Relaxar e fazer amor correm melhor quando nos limitamos a deixar que as coisas aconteçam – sem tentar forçar. O sistema nervoso parassimpático, que é ligado durante estas atividades, age geralmente de forma independente do sistema executivo do nosso cérebro, que pensa sobre isso.”

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away” (Mk 13:31). The word—which seems almost nothing in comparison to the mighty power of the immeasurable material cosmos, like a fleeting breath against the silent grandeur of the universe—the word is more real and more lasting than the entire material world. The word is the true, dependable reality: the solid ground on which we can stand, which holds firm even when the sun goes dark and the firmament disintegrates. The cosmic elements pass away, the word of Jesus is the true "firmament" beneath which we can stand and remain.”
