“I've definitely seen that Texas is certainly a right-wing area politically. I think if you talk to the average Texan, some people may still think that alternative energy is some sort of hippie mumbo-jumbo, you know. I think there's still a strong movement to continue to drill and continue to find these other sources of oil within the country.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsMayStillsCountryEnergyStrongMovementSourceAreasWingsAverageOilAlternativesTexasHippieRight WingDrillsTexanAlternative Energy Author:Jesse Metcalfe
“To evoke in oneself a feeling one has once experienced, and having evoked it in oneself, then by means of movements, lines, colors, sounds, or forms expressed through words, so to convey this so that others may experience the same feeling - this is the activity of art.” MayMeanArtFeelingsFormSoundLinesMovementColorExpressionActivityOneselfEvoke Author:Leo Tolstoy
“Since I move about with you, eat like you, and talk with you, you are deluded in the belief that this is but an instance of common humanity. Be warned against this mistake. I am also deluding you by My singing with you, talking with you, and engaging Myself in activities with you. But, any movement, My Divinity may be revealed to you; you have to be ready, prepared for that moment.” MayMomentsMovingHumanityBeliefCommonMistakeTalkingMovementReadyLike YouActivitySingingPreparedInstanceDivinityThat MomentEngagingDeludedCommon Humanity Author:Sathya Sai Baba

“Who aspires to remain leader must keep in advance of his column. His fear must not play traitor to his occasions.

“I work on two levels. I occupy my conscious mind with things to do, lines to draw, movements to organize, rhythms to invent. In fact, I keep myself occupied. But that allows other things to happen which I'm not controlling... the more I exercise my conscious mind, the more open the other things may find that they can come through.” MindMayTwoFactsHappensLinesLevelsMovementExerciseDrawsConsciousRhythmThings To DoOrganizeConscious Mind Author:Bridget Riley
“What we need most is to restore and revive our humanity. We must create a society where people can live with dignity, a society where people can live in peace and happiness. People are tired of games played for power and profit. People are tired of hatred and conflict. They want to live with more wisdom and confidence, and in peace. It may seem like a long and distant path, but I am convinced that the 21st century must see a movement to sow the seeds of peace, happiness and trust in every person's heart. The seeds of a truly humane way of life. I am convinced this is the only path.” PeopleWayWantNeedsHeartMayPersonsLongSeemsHumanityGamesPathCenturyMovementConflictDignityHatredTiredProfitSeedsConvinced21st CenturyHumaneRevivePeace And HappinessHumane Way Author:Daisaku Ikeda
“The talker has found a hearer but not a listener; and though he may talk his very best for his own sake, you will find that his mental movements are erratic: they have no fixed centre and no definite object. His talk is like the water of a canal whose banks have given way, which rolls aimlessly hither and thither, without fulfilling any useful function, though it is the same water which was so helpful and serviceable, when it was confined within clearly marked limits by the restraining force of its earthy boundaries.” WayMayFoundGivenForceWaterMovementObjectsListeningLimitsFunctionSakeBoundariesFixedHelpfulListenersFulfillingDefiniteCentreConfinedTalkersCanalsRestrainingErratic Author:Charles Dickens
“The psychical condition of men's minds may be compared with a set of bells close together, and so arranged that in the ordinary man a bell rings only when one beside it sounds, and the vibration lasts only a moment. In the genius, when a bell sounds it vibrates so strongly that it sets in action the whole series, and remains in action throughout life. The latter kind of movement often gives rise to extraordinary conditions and absurd impulses, that may last for weeks together and that form the basis of the supposed kinship of genius with insanity.” MenGivingMindKindMayWholeMomentsActionTogetherLastsFormSoundWeekConditionsMovementGeniusOrdinaryBasesRemainsSeriesExtraordinaryRingsAbsurdImpulseInsanityLatterBellsVibrationsKinshipOrdinary ManVibrate Author:Otto Weininger
