“Directing is a very all-consuming job. What you want to do there, as you're coming down the final road, is to just sit back and enjoy and let the wind flow through your hair. When you're directing, you're sitting there going, "I need to make this shot. How many hours do we have left in the day? How many hours behind are we?" You're just constantly worried about doing the job.” WantNeedsJobsLeftEnjoyHoursBehindsWindHairShotsSittingFlowFinalsWhat You WantWorriedConsuming Author:David Shore
“The spiritual man habitually makes eternity-judgments instead of time-judgments. By faith he rises above the tug of earth and the flow of time and learns to think and feel as one who has already left the world and gone to join the innumerable company of angels and the general assembly and Church of the First-born which are written in heaven. Such a man would rather be useful than famous and would rather serve than be served. And all this must be by the operation of the Holy Spirit within him. No man can become spiritual by himself. Only the free Spirit can make a man spiritual.” ThinkingMenWorldFeelsFirstsEarthSpiritualSpiritLeftHeavenBornChurchCompanyGoneWrittenHolyJudgmentAngelFlowEternityOperationsHoly SpiritRise AboveAssemblyFree SpiritGeneral Assembly Author:Aiden Wilson Tozer
“the explanation of the ebb and flow of the women's movement ... is partly psychological. During those early post-war years when successes came thick and fast and were almost thrust upon us, the nation was still under the influence of the reconstruction spirit, when everything seemed possible ... A few years later the nation had reached the stage which follows a drinking bout. It was feeling ruefully in its empty pockets. It did not want to part with anything to anybody. Its head ached. Noble sentiments made it feel sick. It wanted only to be left alone.” WantFeelsYearsMadeStillsWarFeelingsWantedSpiritPoliticsLeftNationsFeminismInfluenceStageMovementFlowEmptySickDrinkingNoblePsychologicalMade ItPostsExplanationPocketsSentimentsThickThrustLeft AloneReconstructionEbb And FlowPost WarEmpty Pockets Author:Eleanor Rathbone
“There was more of a flow to my output of writing in the past, certainly. Having no contemporaries left means you cannot say, "Well, so-and-so will like this," which you do when you're younger. You realize there is no so-and-so anymore. You are your own so-and-so. There is a bleak side to it.” WritingWellsMeanPastLeftSidesRealizingFlowBleakOutput Author:Gore Vidal
“How ignorant we are! How ignorant everyone is! We can cut across only a small area of the appallingly expanding fields of knowledge. No human being can know more than a tiny fraction of the whole. It must have been satisfactory in ancient times when one's own land seemed to be the universe; when research studies, pamphlets, books did not issue in endless flow; when laboratories and scientists were not so rapidly pushing back frontiers of knowledge that the process of unlearning the old left you gasping for breath.” KnowsHumansHas BeensBookWholeUniverseLeftProcessHuman BeingsKnowledgeStudyIssuesCuttingLandFieldsResearchAreasFlowScientistBreathsAncientTinyEndlessIgnorantPushingExpandingFrontiersLaboratoryFractionsAncient TimesPushing BackResearch Study Author:Mary Barnett Gilson
