“It cannot be denied that Islam, regarded as an ethical ideal plus a certain kind of polity - by which expression I mean a social structure regulated by a legal system and animated by a specific ethical ideal - has been the chief formative factor in the life-history of the Muslims of India. It has furnished those basic emotions and loyalties which gradually unify scattered individuals and groups, and finally transform them into a well-defined people, possessing a moral consciousness of their own.” PeopleWellsKindMeanHas BeensCertainIndividualSocialEmotionConsciousnessMoralGroupsExpressionIdealsIndiaStructureIslamLoyaltyFactorsDefinedChiefsPlusEthicalDeniedAnimatedPossessingLegal SystemSocial Structure Book:Speeches, Writings, and Statements of Iqbal Source: Speeches, Writings, and Statements of Iqbal
“I'm not a big dreamer. I never have been.The only thing I've sort of obviously extracted from the research of dreams is that I don't think there's a specific science you can put on dream psychology. I think that it's up to, obviously, the individual. Obviously, we suppress things, emotions, things during the day - thoughts that we obviously haven't thought through enough, and in that state of sleep when our subconscious or mind just sort of randomly fires off different surreal story structures, and when we wake up we should pay attention to these things.” ThinkingShouldMindHas BeensDifferentStatesEnoughStoriesDreamBigsIndividualSleepPayEmotionAttentionPsychologyFireHavensResearchWake UpStructurePay AttentionDreamerSubconsciousSurreal Author:Christopher Nolan
“The only creative power I know is that of what might roughly be called 'love'; not of course a sentimental love: a far more impersonal and less individual emotion. I sometimes think that migratory birds may have it for each other. They fly in the same direction, and have never been seen to interfere with each other's flights.” ThinkingKnowsMaySometimesMightCoursesIndividualEmotionCreativeBirdFlightInterfereSentimentalCreative PowerMigratory Birds Book:Survival Source: Survival
“The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it emotionally. A higher paradox confounds emotion as well as reason and there are long periods in the lives of all of us, and of the saints, when the truth as revealed by faith is hideous, emotionally disturbing, downright repulsive. Witness the dark night of the soul in individual saints. Right now the whole world seems to be going through a dark night of the soul.” WorldWellsLongDoeSoulReasonWholeSeemsNightIndividualDarkAbilityEmotionHigherPeriodsRight NowSaintWhole WorldWitnessParadoxStomachDisturbingHideousDark NightDark Night Of The Soul Author:Flannery O'Connor
