“Never can a new idea move within the law. It matters not whether that idea pertains to political and social changes or to any other domain of human thought and expression - to science, literature, music; in fact, everything that makes for freedom and joy and beauty must refuse to move within the law. How can it be otherwise? The law is stationary, fixed, mechanical, 'a chariot wheel' which grinds all alike without regard to time, place and condition, without ever taking into account cause and effect, without ever going into the complexity of the human soul.” HumansIdeasSoulMatterFactsMovingLawPoliticalJoyLiteratureSocialCausesConditionsEffectsExpressionAccountsRegardRefuseFixedComplexityWheelsNew IdeasSocial ChangeDomainHuman SoulGrindCause And EffectHuman ThoughtChariotsStationary Author:Emma Goldman

“Love flies, runs, leaps for joy; it is free and unrestrained. Love gives all for all, resting in One who is highest above all things, from whom every good flows and proceeds. Love does not regard the gifts, but turns to the Giver of all good gifts. Love knows no limits, but ardently transcends all bounds. Love feels no burden, takes no account of toil, attempts things beyond its strength; love sees nothing as impossible, for it feels able to achieve all things. Love therefore does great things; it is strange and effective; while he who lacks love faints and fails.” KnowsGivingFeelsDoeRunningAbleJoyTurnsImpossibleFailingAchieveStrangeLimitsHighestFlowAll ThingsAccountsRegardBoundsVery GoodBurdenGreat ThingsLeapToilGiverLove Strength Author:Thomas a Kempis

“The fascination of any search after truth lies not in the attainment, which at best is found to be very relative, but in the pursuit, where all the powers of the mind and character are brought into play and are absorbed by the task. One feels oneself in contact with something that is infinite and one finds joy that is beyond expression in sounding the abyss of science and the secrets of the infinite mind.” FeelsMindPlayCharacterScienceJoyLyingFoundSecretExpressionTasksAccountsInfiniteOneselfPursuitContactRelativeAbyssFascinationAttainmentPower Of The Mind Author:Florence Bascom
