“The essential fault of surrealism is that it invents without discovering. To make a clam play an accordion is to invent not to discover. The observation of the unconscious, so far as it can be observed, should reveal things of which we have previously been unconscious, not the familiar things of which we have been conscious plus imagination.” ShouldHas BeensPlayImaginationEssentialsConsciousFaultsFamiliarObservationUnconsciousPlusDiscoveringSurrealismAccordionsClamsFamiliar Things Book:Opus Posthumous: Poems, Plays, Prose Source: Opus Posthumous: Poems, Plays, Prose
“It is what makes conscious of the conditions and laws of observing which applied in this manner become a theme on its own. The activity of consciousness depending on the way the work itself proceeds, becomes the subject of my attention this way and it is precisely because of this voyeuristic attitude toward the own observation and experience of the subject that the conscious analytic dimension in the work shows.” WayShowsLawAttentionConsciousnessAttitudeConditionsSubjectsActivityConsciousObservationThemeDimensionsObservingAnalytics Author:Antoni Tapies
“By means of personal experimentation and observation, we can discover certain simple and universal truths. The mind moves the body, and the body follows the mind. Logically then, negative thought patterns harm not only the mind but also the body.

“In fact, numerous scientific laboratory tests and field observations have led to the conclusion that animals are conscious, intelligent, emotional beings. They are not machines and truly feel physical pain when it is inflicted upon them. They are capable of experiencing a wide range of emotions, including loneliness, embarrassment, sadness, longing, depression, anxiety, panic, and fear, as well as joy, relief, surprise, happiness, contentment, and peace.” FeelsWellsFactsPainJoyAnimalEmotionSadnessLonelinessFieldsEmotionalAnxietyCapableConsciousTestsMachinesIntelligentLongingSurpriseIncludingWideConclusionObservationRangeReliefContentmentPanicEmbarrassmentLaboratoryPhysical PainContentment And PeaceRange Of Emotions Author:Sharon Gannon
“His skin was a pretty colour, it made me jealous. Jacob noticed my scrutiny. What?" he asked, suddenly self-conscious. "Nothing. I just hadn't realised before. Did you know, you're sort of beautiful?" Once the words slipped out, I worried that he might take my implusive observation the wrong way. But Jacob rolled his eyes. "You hit your head pretty hard, didn't you?" "I'm serious." Well, then, thanks. Sort of." I grinned. "You're sort of welcome.” KnowsWayWellsMadeSelfHardMightEyeBeautifulSeriousConsciousSkinsWelcomeObservationThanksWorriedHis EyesColourJealousRealisedSelf ConsciousWrong WayScrutinyJacobDid You Know Author:Stephenie Meyer
