“The field of consciousness is tiny. It accepts only one problem at a time. Get into a fist fight, put your mind on the strategy of the fight, and you will not feel the other fellow's punches.” FeelsMindProblemFightingConsciousnessAcceptingAdviceFieldsFellowsStrategyTinyFists Book:Flight to Arras Source: Flight to Arras
“The woman who fights against her father still has the possibility of leading an instinctive, feminine existence, because she rejects only what is alien to her. But when she fights against the mother she may, at the risk of injury to her instincts, attain to greater consciousness, because in repudiating the mother she repudiates all that is obscure, instinctive, ambiguous, and unconscious in her own nature.” MayStillsMotherFightingFatherExistenceConsciousnessGreaterRiskPossibilityInstinctAliensUnconsciousInjuryRejectsFeminineObscureAmbiguousMemories Dreams Reflections Book:The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious Source: The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious
“There's a small percentage of people who can act. There's a small percentage who get to do this for a living. There's a swath of the population that are able to keep a story in their head and fight all the battles against self-consciousness and the surreal unnaturalness of acting in a movie. The technical aspects you can learn fairly quickly.” PeopleSelfStoriesAbleFightingActingConsciousnessBattleAspectPopulationPercentagesSurrealSelf Consciousness Author:Tom Hanks
“Could he not find in his heart the generosity to acknowledge that there is a small nation that stood alone not for one year or two, but for several hundred years against aggression; that endured spoliations, famines, massacres in endless succession; that was clubbed many times into insensibility, but that each time on returning [to] consciousness took up the fight anew; a small nation that could never be got to accept defeat and has never surrendered her soul?” YearsHeartTwoSoulFightingNationsConsciousnessAcceptingHundredDefeatEndlessGenerosityAcknowledgeAggressionSuccessionFamineMassacresNever SurrenderIreland And The IrishInsensibilitySmall Nations Author:Eamon de Valera
“Tied to consciousness are all positive qualities, so that ocean within is an ocean of unbounded intelligence, unbounded creativity, unbounded happiness, unbounded love, unbounded energy, and unbounded peace. And when students start expanding consciousness in those positive qualities, their relationships improve, their grades go up, their happiness goes up, the fighting and bullying stops, and things get very, very, very good.” FightingEnergyConsciousnessQualityCreativityStudentsOceanVery GoodGradesBullyingTiedExpanding Author:David Lynch
“Any issue and any problem, no matter what height you look at it from, no matter how much you extend past the first fractal, it's still a fractal of something that emanates from within your consciousness - from within the human consciousness. And it'll move on and manifest itself externally, and then those are what we pick up as societal ills. But all these battles we're fighting are internal. For me, it's reconciling hope with dread and trying to cut out some place in my mind where my heart can be protected a little bit.” TryingMindFirstsHumansLooksHeartLittlesStillsMatterProblemPastMovingFightingBitsConsciousnessIssuesCuttingMy HeartBattleLittle BitPicksNo Matter WhatHeightInternalsManifestDreadProtectedHuman ConsciousnessEmanateFractals Author:El-P

“Full sexual consciousness and a natural regulation of sexual life mean the end of mystical feelings of any kind. In other words, natural sexuality is the deadly enemy of mystical religion. The church, by making the fight over sexuality the center of its dogmas and of its influence over the masses, confirms this concept.” KindMeanEndsFeelingsFightingNaturalChurchConsciousnessEnemyInfluenceMassConceptsSexualityRegulationDogmaMysticalLife Means Author:Wilhelm Reich
