“Every painter must traverse for himself that distance from Paris to Aix (where Paul Cézanne worked a lot, fh) or from Venice to Toledo (where El Greco painted a lot, fh). Expression is for one knowing its own pivot. Every expressor relates solely to himself - that is the concern of the individualist.” KnowingExpressionConcernDistancePainterRelateParisVeniceTraverseToledo Author:Marsden Hartley
“In America, religious dissent is as vital as it is elusive. Like the secretions of the pituitary, the juices of dissent are essential to ongoing life even if we do not always know precisely how, when or where they perform their tasks, and the not knowing - the flimsy, filmy elusiveness - is supremely characteristic of America's expressions of religious dissent. For in the United States no stalwart orthodoxy stands ever ready to parry the sharp thrust or clever feints of dissent.” IfsKnowsStatesAmericaReligiousUnitedUnited StatesKnowingAtheismReadyExpressionEssentialsTasksCleverCharacteristicsNot KnowingJuiceOngoingDissentThrustOrthodoxyElusiveStalwartElusiveness Author:Edwin Gaustad
“The body has a wisdom of its own. However, slowly and circuitously that wisdom manifests, once it is experienced it is a foundation, a basis of knowing that gives confidence to the ego. To reach its wisdom requires absolute concentration: dropping the mind into the body, breathing into whatever is ready to be released, and allowing the process of expression until the negative dammed up energy is out, making room for the positive energy, genuine Light, to flood in.” GivingMindBodyLightEnergyProcessRoomsKnowingReadyExpressionEgoNegativeBasesAbsolutesFoundationGenuineBreathingConcentrationAllowingFloodDroppingPositive Energy Author:Marion Woodman
“One reason why so many people are unhappy, not knowing why, is that they have burdened their minds with resentments. These evil thoughts pile right on top of happier and generous ones and smother them so that they never get expression. Resentments are a form of hate.... What a dearth of good will and co-operation there are among human beings and nations! What a world this would be if we all worked together, and as a popular diplomat recently expressed it-played together!” PeopleIfsWorldMindHumansReasonWould BeTogetherFormHateEvilNationsHuman BeingsKnowingExpressionEnvyUnhappyReason WhyOperationsGenerousResentmentNot KnowingGood WillDiplomatsEvil Thoughts Author:George Matthew Adams
“Poetic experience is distinct in nature from mystical experience. Because poetry emanates from the free creativity of the spirit,it is from the very start oriented toward expression, and terminates in a word proffered, it wants to speak; whereas mystical because it emanates from the deepest longing of the spirit bent on knowing, tends of itself toward silence and internal fruition. Poetic experience is busy with the created world and the enigmatic and innumerable relations of existents with one another, not with the Principle of Being.” WorldWantSpiritPoetrySpeakSilencePrinciplesCreativityKnowingPoetExpressionRelationLongingBusyInternalsPoeticMysticalBentFruitionEmanateEnigmaticMystical Experiences Author:Jacques Maritain
“Prayer is a supernal gift of our Father in Heaven to every soul. Think of it: the absolute Supreme Being, the most all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful personage, encourages you and me, as insignificant as we are, to converse with Him as our Father. Our supplication can be brief or can occupy all the time needed. It can be an extended expression of love and gratitude or an urgent plea for help. He has created numberless cosmos and populated them with worlds, yet you and I can talk with Him personally, and He will ever answer.” ThinkingWorldI CanSoulHelpingFatherHeavenPrayerAnswersPowerfulKnowingSeeingExpressionNeededGratitudeAbsolutesSupremeCosmosInsignificantUrgentOur FatherConversesSupreme BeingFather In HeavenLove And GratitudeSupplicationExpressions Of Love Author:Richard G.

“The most valuable thing a teacher can impart to children is not knowledge and understanding per se but a longing for knowledge and understanding, and an appreciation for intellectual values, whether they be artistic, scientific, or moral. It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. Most teachers waste their time by asking questions that are intended to discover what a pupil does not know, whereas the true art of questioning is to discover what the pupil does know or is capable of knowing.” KnowsChildrenDoeArtJoyValuesUnderstandingMoralCreativeKnowingTeacherExpressionWasteCapableIntellectualAskingLongingAppreciationValuableSupremeArtisticQuestioningPupilsImpartAsking QuestionsValuable ThingsCreative ExpressionKnowledge And Understanding Author:Albert Einstein
“When a path opens up before us that leads we know not where, don't be afraid to follow it. Our lives are meant to be mysterious journeys, unfolding one step at a time. Often we follow a path worn smooth by the many and in doing so we lose our authenticity, our individuality, our own unique expression. Do not be afraid to lose your way. Out of chaos, clarity will eventually rise. Out of not knowing, something new and unknown will ultimately come. Do not order things too swiftly. Wait and the miracle will appear.” KnowsWayOrderWaitingLosesStepsKnowingPathOur LivesJourneyExpressionUniqueMiracleChaosIndividualityAuthenticityClarityMysteriousSomething NewMeant To BeNot KnowingWornSmoothUnfoldingOne Step At A TimeKnowing Something Author:Ann Mortifee
