“I have always been interested in fashion as an informing design discipline: proportion structure, detail, materiality, texture, color and quality. With a heightened interest in, and an awareness of the built environment, the 'store' has become a critical, perceptual and psychological component of merchandising as well as imaging. Architecture and fashion are partners.” WellsInterestQualityEnvironmentAwarenessFashionDesignColorDisciplineBuiltStructureDetailsCriticalStoresArchitecturePartnersPsychologicalProportionComponentsTextureInformingImagingMaterialityMerchandisingBuilt Environment Author:Charles Gwathmey

“I attempt to read one book every day. I don't always achieve that, especially when I'm traveling. But when I'm home, I read almost a book a day. I certainly read a minimum of two or three a week. And as a result of that, I've read over 3,000 books in areas that interest me, like consciousness and spirituality, holistic health, leadership, success, psychological awareness, therapy, etc.” TwoBookHomeSpiritualityThreeInterestResultsConsciousnessWeekAchieveAwarenessAreasPsychologicalTherapyEtcMinimumHolistic Author:Jack Canfield
“There's nothing wrong with being proud of America, believing that America can do great things. America can do great things, it has done great things. I think we have to have the self-awareness to recognize that the world is a very, very big place, that we could be a force for good things in the world, but we have to have the humility to recognize that sometimes even when we think we're acting from the best of motives our own idealism can be infected by self-interest. Other people in other countries can see it sometimes better than we can.” PeopleThinkingWorldBelieveSelfCountrySometimesDoneBigsAmericaForceInterestCan DoActingAwarenessHumilityProudSelf AwarenessGood ThingsGreat ThingsMotiveOther CountriesIdealismBe ProudSelf Interest Author:Peter Beinart

“I was always taught that anybody and everything is worth spending time and interest on and there's no reason to pass over anything. So it led me in a route that was just hyper awareness of human beings and care and love.

“He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest. While he gropingly forms his own life in the frail image of a true existence, he should never forget its frailty, nor how little the image is a substitute for true life. Against such awareness, however, pulls the momentum of the bourgeois within him.” ShouldBelieveLittlesRunningFormInterestForgetExistenceRiskAwarenessIdeologyNever ForgetSubstitutesMomentumCritiqueBourgeoisFrailFrailtyTrue LifeAloof Book:Essays on Music Source: Essays on Music
“People tend to assess the relative importance of issues by the ease with which they are retrieved from memory—and this is largely determined by the extent of coverage in the media. Frequently mentioned topics populate the mind even as others slip away from awareness. In turn, what the media choose to report corresponds to their view of what is currently on the public’s mind. It is no accident that authoritarian regimes exert substantial pressure on independent media. Because public interest is most easily aroused by dramatic events and by celebrities, media feeding frenzies are common” PeopleMindTurnsInterestMemoriesViewsCommonIssuesAwarenessMediaEventsImportancePressureIndependentDeterminedAccidentsEaseDramaticReportsRelativeSlipsRegimesTopicsFeedingCoverageFrenzyPublic InterestIndependent Media Author:Daniel Kahneman

“Meditation is the art of awareness. And once you are aware, out of your awareness your actions will arise - not out of conscience. Conscience is cultivated by others, by the vested interests, by the establishment. Consciousness is yours. It is individual, it is not collective. Conscience is part of the mob psychology. Consciousness gives you dignity because it gives you individuality. It gives you rebellion, it makes you capable of saying yes or no of your own accord. There is no foreign agency manipulating you in the name of religion, morality, etcetera.” GivingArtActionNamesIndividualInterestConsciousnessPsychologyMeditationAwarenessMoralityCapableConscienceDignityIndividualityAriseAgencyCollectivesRebellionEstablishmentAccordSaying YesVested InterestsYes Or NoEtcetera Author:Rajneesh
