“I would like you to show me, if you can, where the line can be drawn between an organism and it's environment. The environment is in you. It's passing through you. You're breathing it in and out.

“I could never work in a recording studio where you have this lovely view and a beach and the waves are crashing. For me, it's all about being in a tiny room with little windows.

And you can create beauty when you're in that sort of deprived environment, which is a re-creation of your formative years.” YearsLittlesRoomsViewsEnvironmentCreationLike YouWindowPrisonWaveStudiosTinyLovelyBeachDeprivedRecording StudioFormative Years Author:Madonna Ciccone

“If you accept learning as a dominant determination of your behavior, then all of a sudden you're open to the idea that, for instance, there are other people who are more educated than you about the environment, who you will learn from. It's kind of like you don't even have to believe that you know anything about the environment, but you do have to understand that your behavior has been determined by learning in the past.” PeopleIfsKnowsBelieveKindHas BeensIdeasPastAcceptingEnvironmentLike YouBehaviorDeterminationDeterminedEducatedInstanceDominant Author:Greg Graffin
“Realize that your physical experience and environment is the materialization of your beliefs. If you find great exuberance, health, effective work, abundance, smiles on the faces of those who you meet, then take it for granted that your beliefs are beneficial. If you see a world that is good, people like you, take it for granted again, that your beliefs are beneficial.

“A long memory is the most subversive idea in America. A tautology is a thing which is tautological. A witty saying proves nothing, but saying something pointless gets people's attention. If your kids look like you, it's hereditory. If they look like the neighbor, it's the environment.

“I think a lot of people do have questions about life, 'What's the purpose of my life?', 'What's the meaning of my life?', 'Why am I here?' ... It's hard to find a place where you can discuss those issues. You can't go down to the pub and say, 'What do you think the meaning of life is?' But actually, most people have those questions, somewhere in the back of their minds. And if you can find a place where you can discuss it with a group of people who, like you, are outside of the Church, and it's a non-threatening, relaxed environment, quite a lot of people want to do that.” PeopleIfsThinkingWantMindHardLife IsPurposeChurchIssuesEnvironmentGroupsLike YouMeaning Of LifeThreateningRelaxedPubs Author:Nicky Gumbel
