“People mistake their love of the technology for it being a solution. Social media is the problem, not the solution, in crisis management. It's a problem if you use it to communicate in areas where you're dealing with incredibly intense emotions and very deep conflicts.” PeopleIfsUseProblemSocialEmotionMistakeTechnologyMediaConflictSolutionsAreasManagementCrisisCommunicateSocial MediaIntenseVery DeepCrisis ManagementIntense Emotions Author:Eric Dezenhall
“The 'idea' for the poem, which may come as an image thrown against memory, as a sound of words that sets off a traveling of sound and meaning, as a curve of emotion (a form) plotted by certain crises of events or image or sound, or as a title which evokes a sense of inner relations; this is the first 'surfacing' of the poem. Then a period of stillness may follow.” FirstsMayIdeasFormCertainSoundMemoriesEmotionEventsPeriodsRelationCrisisTitlesThrownStillnessCurvesEvoke Author:Muriel Rukeyser
“That's part of what I touch on in my [UN] speech - when assaults happen on women and girls in these fragile countries, in these places of crisis, there isn't the psychosocial support. There aren't counseling services. It's not in a lot of cultures to explicitly talk about things that maybe have happened to the body. So, repression of emotion, and shame, and guilt is something that really needs to be handled in humanitarian crises.” NeedsCountryBodyHappensCultureGirlEmotionSupportHappenedSpeechShameCrisisGuiltHumanitarianFragileAssaultRepressionCounselingShame And Guilt Author:Natalie Dormer
“There is an idealism associated with poetry I would not dispel but question. It doesn't change anything except within. It shifts your insides around. Poetry is not going to reach the numbers of people by which we commonly consider a large audience. It just isn't a stadium-filler. It could still galvanize people during a crisis, but let's just say there are two points at which poetry is indispensable to people - at the point of love and the point of death. I'll second that emotion.” PeopleEmotionAudienceCrisisPoetry IsIdealism Author:C.D. Wright

“If youth is the season of hope, it is often so only in the sense that our elders are hopeful about us; for no age is so apt as youth to think its emotions, partings, and resolves are the last of their kind. Each crisis seems final, simply because it is new. We are told that the oldest inhabitants in Peru do not cease to be agitated by the earthquakes, but they probably see beyond each shock, and reflect that there are plenty more to come.” IfsThinkingKindSeemsAgeLastsEmotionYouthSeasonsCrisisFinalsCeasePlentyShockHopefulResolveEldersPartingEarthquakesPeru Book:Delphi Complete Works of George Eliot (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of George Eliot (Illustrated)
