“For all its material advantages, the sedentary life has left us edgy, unfulfilled, even after 400 generations in villages and cities, we haven't forgotten: The open road still softly calls like a nearly forgotten song of childhood.” StillsSongLeftCitiesGenerationsChildhoodHavensMaterialsAdvantageForgottenVillageEdgySedentaryOpen Road Book:Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space Source: Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space
“However inadequate our ideas of causal efficacy may be, we are less wide of the mark when we say that our ideas and feelings have it, than the Automatists are when they say they haven't it. As in the night all cats are gray, so in the darkness of metaphysical criticism all causes are obscure. But one has no right to pull the pall over the psychic half of the subject only . . . whilst in the same breath one dogmatizes about material causation as if Hume, Kant, and Lotze had never been born.” IfsMayIdeasFeelingsNightCausesBornHalfDarknessSubjectsHavensMaterialsCatCriticismMarkBreathsWideGrayObscurePsychicsMetaphysicalInadequateEfficacyCausationHume Book:The Principles of Psychology Source: The Principles of Psychology

“I feel most vulnerable when I am underprepared - for instance, if I have an audition and haven't worked through the material enough beforehand.
