“That was where my dream began to take hold, of not havin' to pick cotton and potatoes, and not havin' to be uncomfortable, too hot or too cold. That in itself had driven me to try to find some better way of life.” WayTryingDreamColdPicksHotDrivenUncomfortablePotatoesBetter WaysCotton Author:Buck Owens
“There are those who say that temptation can be barricaded beyond the door. The ones who think that stray desires can be driven out of the heart like the moneychangers from the temple. Maybe they can, if you patrol your weak points day and night, don't look, don't smell, don't dream.” IfsThinkingLooksHeartDreamDesireNightDoorsWeakSmellDrivenTemptationTemplesDay And NightWeak Points Book:Written On The Body Source: Written On The Body
“We must face the bitter fact that we have forsaken our great dream of a life of, for, and by the people; that the burning passions and ideals of the American dream lie congealed by cold cynicism. Great parts of the masses of our people no longer believe that they have a voice or a hand in shaping the destiny of this nation. They have not forsaken democracy because of any desire or positive action of their own; they have been driven down into the depths of a great despair born of frustration, hopelessness, and apathy. A democracy lacking in popular participation dies of paralysis.” PeopleBelieveHas BeensFactsDreamHandsActionAmericaFacesLyingDesireDiesPassionNationsVoiceBornDestinyDemocracyColdDespairMassIdealsDepthDrivenBitterBurningFrustrationApathyCynicismAmerican DreamLackingParticipationHopelessnessParalysisForsakenBurning Passion Author:Saul Alinsky
“The Web is cool, but the library is magic. Where else can the spirit of generations of writers stir your soul? So many writers talk about libraries setting them on their magical paths, it's almost a groaner. But we know it's true. Wander through the stacks and you can feel the dreams, the unique worlds bubbling within each volume. The magic enters you as if by osmosis. On the Web, you may feel clever, lucky and driven to download--but rarely inspired to dream and to write.” IfsKnowsWorldFeelsWritingMaySoulDreamSpiritPathGenerationsMagicLuckyUniqueInspiredLibraryDrivenCleverSettingSettingsWanderYour SoulVolumeDownloadsOsmosis Author:Arthur Plotnik
“Science offers the boldest metaphysics of the age. It is a thoroughly human construct, driven by the faith that if we dream, press to discover, explain, and dream again, thereby plunging repeatedly into new terrain, the world will somehow come clearer and we will grasp the true strangeness of the universe. And the strangeness will all prove to be connected, and make sense.” IfsWorldHumansDreamAgeFaithUniverseOffersProvePressesConnectedDrivenMake SenseMetaphysicsConstructsStrangenessTerrain Author:E. O.

“What Warcollier demonstrated is compatible with what modern cognitive neuroscience has learned about how visual images are constructed by the brain. It implies that telepathic perceptions bubble up into awareness from the unconscious and are probably processed in the brain in the same way that we generate images in dreams. And thus telepathic “images” are far less certain than sensory-driven images and subject to distortion.” WayDreamCertainBrainModernSubjectsAwarenessPerceptionDrivenVisualsUnconsciousBubblesNeuroscienceDistortionCognitiveSensoryCompatibleVisual Images Book:Entangled Minds: Extrasensory Experiences in a Quantum Reality Source: Entangled Minds: Extrasensory Experiences in a Quantum Reality
