“Pseudo-critics prefer to direct their remarks to the artist - Heaven forgive them - but one due rather to a common impression that such an attitude is the correct one, that all paintings should be figuratively mutilated, and that all artists are fair game, or really grateful perhaps for a few tips.” ShouldArtistGamesHeavenCommonAttitudePaintingFairsDirectGratefulForgivingCriticsDuesImpressionRemarksPseudoFair Game Author:Walter J.

“Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it's good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible.” ThinkingEnergyDealsAttitudeBuddhismDirectFavorsClothingsChicInaccessibleTrendy Author:Frederick Lenz
“Next, take a look at the quality of the people who surround you. Do these people back you emotionally, or not? If they don't back you, are they at least passive? If not, get rid of them. Sometimes it is hard to drop off your mates at the great bus stop of life. But remember, your energy will only rise in direct relationship to the number of things you are able to get rid of - not to the things you acquire. By getting rid of things, attitudes, encumbrances, and blocks of one kind or another, things fly.” PeopleIfsLooksKindSometimesHardAbleRememberNextEnergyFriendshipNumbersAttitudeQualityDirectBlockAcquireSurroundBusMatesPassiveBus Stops Book:The Trick to Money is Having Some Source: The Trick to Money is Having Some

“There is not, in fact, any such thing as the direct influence of one human being on another apart from use of the physical environment as an intermediary. A smile, a frown, a rebuke, a word of warning or encouragement, all involve some physical change. Otherwise, the attitude of one would not get over to alter the attitude of another.” HumansFactsUseHuman BeingsAttitudeEnvironmentInfluenceDirectEncouragementWarningGet OverRebuke Book:Democracy And Education Source: Democracy And Education
“My suspicion is that those who seem oblivious to suffering, whether it is nearby or in remote corners, are for the most part unaware, perhaps blinded by doctrine and ideology. For them, the answer is to develop a critical attitude toward articles of faith, secular or religious; to encourage their capacity to question, to explore, to view the world from the standpoint of others. And direct exposure is never very far away, wherever we live - perhaps the homeless person huddling in the cold or asking for a few pennies for food, or all too many more.” WorldSufferingReligiousAttitudeColdDirectIdeologyFar AwaySuspicionSecularHomelessOblivious Author:Noam Chomsky
