“To see with the eyes of another, to hear with the ears of another, to feel with the heart of another. For the time being, this seems to me an admissible definition of what we call social feeling.” FeelsHeartFeelingsSeemsEyeSocialEarsDefinitions Book:The Collected Clinical Works of Alfred Adler: Journal articles : 1927-1931 Source: The Collected Clinical Works of Alfred Adler: Journal articles : 1927-1931
“A friend told me of visiting the Dalai Lama in India and asking him for a succinct definition of compassion. She prefaced her question by describing how heart-stricken she'd felt when, earlier that day, she'd seen a man in the street beating a mangy stray dog with a stick. "Compassion," the Dalai Lama told her, "is when you feel as sorry for the man as you do for the dog."” MenFeelsHeartSufferingFeltCompassionStreetsDogHe ManIndiaAskingSticksSorryDefinitionsDescribingVisitingLamaDalaiStray Dogs Author:Marc Ian Barasch
“On Nov. 6, the day before my 94th birthday, our nation will hold one of the most critical elections in my lifetime. We are at a crossroads and there are profound moral issues at stake. I strongly urge you to vote for candidates who support the biblical definition of marriage between a man and a woman, protect the sanctity of life and defend our religious freedoms. The Bible speaks clearly on these crucial issues. Please join me in praying for America, that we will turn our hearts back toward God.” MenHeartAmericaTurnsSpeakNationsReligiousMoralSupportIssuesPrayingPleaseProtectVoteElectionLifetimeProfoundDefinitionsCriticalCandidatesUrgesCrucialStakesBiblicalReligious FreedomSanctityCrossroadsMoral IssuesSanctity Of Life Author:Billy Graham
“We accepted a definition of ourselves which confined the self to the source and to the limitations of conscious attention. This definition is miserably insufficient, for in fact we know how to grow brains and eyes, ears and fingers, hearts and bones, in just the same way that we know how to walk and breathe, talk and think - only we can't put it into words. Words are too slow and too clumsy for describing such things, and conscious attention is too narrow for keeping track of all their details.” ThinkingKnowsWayHeartSelfFactsEyeGrowsWalksAttentionBrainKnow HowSourceConsciousEarsFingersTrackDefinitionsDetailsBonesBreatheAcceptedLimitationConfinedDescribingClumsyInsufficient Author:Alan Watts
“Boredom has to be the most life sapping, mental disease you can be afflicted with.The most accurate definition of boredom I have ever heard is this - Boredom is the absence of a creative idea. But there is a simple cure - begin to think immediately of a better way to do something. The creative juices are within you but you must turn on the tap. Those who are bored are not living; they are dying. When their heart stops beating, it will be a mere formality. The best way to do anything has never been thought of. Get on a creative improvement kick and jar others mentally into the same activity.” ThinkingWayHeartIdeasTurnsSimpleCreativeHeardDyingActivityDiseaseMereDefinitionsAbsenceImprovementBest WayCuresBoredKicksBoredomAccurateWithin YouJuiceTurn-onBetter WaysJarsCreative IdeasFormalityCreative Juices Author:Bob Proctor
