“any writer is inevitably going to work with his own anxieties and desires. If the book is any good it has got to have in it the fire of a personal unconscious mind.” IfsMindBookDesireFireAnxietyUnconsciousGoing To WorkUnconscious Mind Book:From a Tiny Corner in the House of Fiction: Conversations with Iris Murdoch Source: From a Tiny Corner in the House of Fiction: Conversations with Iris Murdoch
“Hell is hot, fire. But I tell you, you are providing your own coal. This is how things are: If you move against nature you will be in misery. Misery means moving against nature, and misery is a good indication - if you understand. It shows that somewhere you are going wrong, that's all. Put things right! Misery is a help. Anguish, anxiety, tension, are indications that somewhere something is going wrong. You are not with the total. Somewhere you have started your own private movement - and then you will be in misery.” IfsMeanHelpingShowsMovingHellFireMovementAnxietyHotMiseryTensionProvidingCoalAnguishIndication Author:Rajneesh

“I was walking along a path with two friends - the sun was setting - suddenly the sky turned blood red - I paused, feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence - there was blood and tongues of fire above the blue-black fjord and the city - my friends walked on, and I stood there trembling with anxiety - and I sensed an infinite scream passing through nature.” TwoFeelingsBlackCitiesSunPathFireBloodSkyWalkingAnxietyMy FriendsRedInfiniteBlueTongueSettingPassingPassingsSettingsScreamExhaustedFenceTremblingPassing ThroughTwo FriendsFjords Author:Edvard Munch
“Innately, children seem to have little true realistic anxiety. They will run along the brink of water, climb on the window sill, play with sharp objects and with fire, in short, do everything that is bound to damage them and to worry those in charge of them, that is wholly the result of education; for they cannot be allowed to make the instructive experiences themselves.” ChildrenLittlesPlaySeemsRunningFunWaterResultsWorryFireObjectsAnxietyWindowBoundsDamageClimbsRealistic Author:Sigmund Freud
“['Fire and Rain'] is sort of almost uncomfortably close. Almost confessional. The reason I could write a song like that at that point, and probably couldn't now, is that I didn't have any sense that anyone would hear it. I started writing the song while I was in London...and I was totally unknown.... So I assumed that they would never be heard. I could just write or say anything I wanted. Now I'm very aware, and I have to deal with my stage fright and my anxiety about people examining or judging it. The idea that people will pass judgment on it is not a useful thought.” PeopleWritingIdeasReasonWantedSongDealsFireHeardStageJudgingAnxietyJudgmentRainLondonSongwritingSay AnythingExaminingFrightStage FrightUseful Thoughts Author:James Taylor

“I get shitty scared. One show in Amsterdam, I was so nervous I escaped out the fire exit. I've thrown up a couple of times. Once in Brussels, I projectile-vomited on someone. I just gotta bear it. But I don't like touring. I have anxiety attacks a lot.” ShowsFireBearsCoupleAnxietyScaredNervousThrownTouringExitAmsterdamBrusselsAnxiety AttacksProjectile Author:Adele
“Each of us seeks peace of mind, but we sometimes fear that it means giving up excitement and ecstasy. Peace sounds like contentment, which sounds like settling, letting the fire go out. Actually, peace of mind allows you to go more deeply into the world and consequently to experience more excitement and ecstasy. The fire burns brighter, fueled by awareness instead of anxiety.” WorldGivingMindMeanSometimesPeaceSoundFireAwarenessGiving UpAnxietySettlingExcitementContentmentPeace Of MindEcstasyBrighter Author:Jennifer James
