“What healthy religion is saying is that the real life is both now and later. You have to taste the Real first of all now. The constant pattern, however, is that most Christians either move both backwards (religion as nostalgia) or into the distant future (religion as carrot on the stick) and consistently avoid where everything really happens and mattersthe present moment.” FirstsRealMatterMomentsHappensChristianMovingLife IsFaithHealthyTasteConstantSticksPatternsNostalgiaReal LifePresent MomentConsistentlyBackwardsCarrotsNow And Later Author:Richard Rohr
“You have to have like a bit of amnesia both on the winning side and the losing side of this thing... On the losing side you need to be able to forget a loss to be able to move on and to be successful in your next fight. But on the winning side you need to be able to forget a win so you don't get stuck in this pattern of like, "I'm unstoppable". So there has to be a level of amnesia for a fighter.” NeedsAbleMovingFightingNextWinningBitsSidesLossForgetLevelsSuccessfulLosingPatternsStuckFighterBeing SuccessfulMmaAmnesiaUnstoppable Author:Rich Franklin
“Finally, a Jeet Kune Do man who says Jeet Kune Do is exclusively Jeet Kune Do is simply not with it. He is still hung up on his self-closing resistance, in this case anchored down to reactionary pattern, and naturally is still bound by another modified pattern and can move within its limits. He has not digested the simple fact that truth exists outside all molds; pattern and awareness is never exclusive. Again let me remind you Jeet Kune Do is just a name used, a boat to get one across, and once across it is to be discarded and not to be carried on one's back.” MenStillsSelfFactsMovingUsedNamesSimpleCasesAwarenessLimitsLet MeBoundsPatternsResistanceBoatHungExclusiveClosingMoldReactionariesDiscarded Author:Bruce Lee
“... not only is life put in new patterns from the air, but it is somehow arrested, frozen into form. (The leaping hare is caught in a marble panel.) A glaze is put over life. There is no flaw, no crack in the surface; a still reservoir, no ripple on its face. Looking down from the air that morning, I felt that stillness rested like a light over the earth. The waterfalls seemed frozen solid; the tops of the trees were still; the river hardly stirred, a serpent gently moving under its shimmering skin.” StillsLightEarthFacesMovingFormFeltMorningAirTreeRiversSkinsPatternsCaughtSurfaceFlawsCracksStillnessFrozenArrestedMarbleRippleSerpentReservoirsWaterfallsLooking DownHares Author:Anne Morrow Lindbergh
“Our dreams of bringing the whole of human history under the control of the human will are ironically refuted by the fact that no group of idealists can easily move the pattern of history toward the desired goal of peace and justice.

“Sandy was particularly destructive because it was prevented from moving back out to sea by a "blocking pattern" associated with the jet stream. There's debate about this, but one recent study suggested that melting sea ice in the Arctic may lead to such blocking.” MayMovingStudySeaClimate ChangePatternsDebateBlockIceStreamsDestructiveJetMeltingArcticSandyMoving Back Author:Nicholas D.

“Loving the self, to me, begins with never ever criticizing ourselves for anything. Criticism locks us into the very pattern we are trying to change. Understanding and being gentle with ourselves helps us to move out of it. Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” TryingYearsHas BeensSelfHelpingHappensRememberMovingUnderstandingSelf HelpCriticismPatternsGentleCriticizeLocksRemember YouRemembers YouTrying To ChangeApproving Author:Louise Hay
“Poetry and code - and mathematics - make us read differently from other forms of writing. Written poetry makes the silent reader read three kinds of pattern at once; code moves the reader from a static to an active, interactive and looped domain; while algebraic topology allows us to read qualitative forms and their transformations.” WritingKindMovingFormPoetryThreeLiteratureWrittenReaderTransformationMathematicsSilentPatternsActiveCodeDomainStaticInteractiveQualitativeTopology Author:Stephanie Strickland
“Nature is not personal. She is the compound of all these processes which move through the universe to effect the results we know as Life and of all the ordinances which govern that universe and that make Life continuous. She is no more the Hebrew's Jehovah than she is the Physicist's Force; she is as much Providence as she is Electricity; she is not the Great Pattern any more than she is the Blind Chance.” KnowsMovingUniverseForceProcessChanceResultsAtheismEffectsBlindPatternsPositive AtheismProvidenceElectricityPhysicistCompoundsHebrewJehovahOrdinances Author:Luther Burbank
