“The music left only this bad hurt in her, and a blankness. She could not remember any of the symphony, not even the last few notes. She tried to remember, but no sound at all came to her. Now that it was over there was only her heart like a rabbit and this terrible hurt.” HeartLastsRememberLeftSoundHurtTerribleNotesEmptinessRabbitsDetachmentSymphonyNumbnessBlankness Book:The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter Source: The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter
“The Sketchnote Handbook is neither about sketching nor is it about note taking. It's about receiving and processing the world in a more complete and insightful way. It's a software upgrade for your brain. For those who've been shamed into thinking that drawing is either beyond them or beneath them, this book offers a whole new way of mastering the daily onslaught of information and turning it into raw material for discovery. (For those of us who've done this all our lives, the book provides a beautifully conceived and lovingly illustrated treat, and a great gift for our left-brained friends.)” ThinkingWorldWayBookDoneWholeLeftBrainOur LivesInformationMaterialsOffersDiscoveryTreatsNotesDrawingInsightfulSoftwareReceivingNew WaysRaw MaterialsProcessingGreat GiftsSketchingNote Taking Author:Stefan G.

“Several years ago my dear wife went to the hospital. She left a note behind for the children: "Dear children, do not let Daddy touch the microwave" - followed by a comma, "or the stove, or the dishwasher, or the dryer." I'm embarrassed to add any more to that list.” YearsChildrenLeftBehindsWifeYears AgoAddNotesDearListsHospitalsEmbarrassedDaddyStovesMicrowavesDishwashersDryers Author:Thomas S. Monson

“Performing isn't only about the acrobatics and the high notes: It's staying in the moment, connecting with the audience in an authentic way, and making yourself real to them through the music. I am more than the notes I hit, and that's how I try to approach my life. You can't get it all right all the time, but you can try your best. If you've done that, all that's left is to accept your shortcomings and have the courage to try to overcome them.” IfsWayTryingRealDoneMomentsLeftAcceptingAudienceApproachOvercomingNotesPerformingStayingConnectingShortcomingsTry Your BestHigh NotesAcrobatics Author:Idina Menzel
“If I tell you my character has grey hair, you will not see her. If I tell you she has a tiny scar at the upper left corner of her lip from which protrudes one grey whisker—you will make up the rest of her face with absolute clarity. If I tell you my character is waiting in a car, you won’t be ‘caught,’ but if I tell you he pushes his fingers down in the crack of the car seat where the ancient leather has pulled away from the seat frame, and pulls up a small coin purse with a faded note in it—you will be mine.” IfsCharacterFacesLeftWaitingCarMinesHairAbsolutesNotesFingersLipsAncientCaughtCornersTinyClaritySeatsCracksScarGreyCoinsLeatherPursesFadedPull UpsWhiskersGrey Hair Book:Writing Alone and with Others Source: Writing Alone and with Others
“It is important to note that multiculturalism does not share the postmodernist stance. Its passions are political; its assumptionsempirical; its conception of identities visceral. For it, there is no doubting that history is something that happened and that those happenings have left their mark within our collective consciousness. History for multiculturalists is not a succession of dissolving texts, but a tense tangle of past actions that have reshaped the landscape, distributed the nation's wealth, established boundaries, engendered prejudices, and unleashed energies.” DoeImportantActionPastPoliticalPassionPoliticsEnergyLeftNationsWealthConsciousnessHistoryDoubtHappenedShareIdentityDiversityHappeningsPrejudiceMarkNotesBoundariesLandscapeCollectivesConceptionMulticulturalismTenseSuccessionStanceVisceralCultural DiversityUnleashedDissolvingCollective Consciousness Author:Joyce Appleby
“Music, also, the architect ought to understand so that he may have knowledge of the canonical and mathematical theory, and besides be able to tune ballistae , catapultae, and scorpiones to the proper key. For to the right and left in the beams are the holes in the frames through which the strings of twisted sinew are stretched by means of windlasses and bars, and these strings must not be clamped and made fast until they give the same correct note to the ear of the skilled workman.” GivingMayMeanMadeAbleLeftTheoryKeysOughtEarsNotesBarsHolesMathematicalTunesStringsArchitectTwistedBeamWorkmen Author:Marcus Vitruvius Pollio
