“There are very few things in the mind which eat up as much energy as worry. It is one of the most difficult things not to worry about anything. Worry is experienced when things go wrong, but in relation to past happenings it is idle merely to wish that they might have been otherwise. The frozen past is what it is, and no amount of worrying is going to make it other than what it has been. But the limited ego-mind identifies itself with its past, gets entangled with it and keeps alive the pangs of frustrated desires.” MindHas BeensMightPastDesireEnergyWishDifficultWorryAliveAmountEgoHappeningsRelationFrustratedIdleFrozenMight Have BeenDifficult ThingsWhen Things Go Wrong Author:Meher Baba
“What's the greatest enemy of Christianity to-day? Frozen meat. In the past only members of the upper classes were thoroughly sceptical, despairing, negative. Why? Among other reasons, because they were the only people who could afford to eat too much meat. Now there's cheap Canterbury lamb and Argentine chilled beef. Even the poor can afford to poison themselves into complete scepticism and despair.” PeopleReasonPastPoorChristianityEnemyClassToo MuchMembersDespairNegativeMeatPoisonSkepticismFrozenLambsBeefUpper ClassScepticismChilledCanterbury Book:The collected works of Aldous Huxley Source: The collected works of Aldous Huxley
“Our reliance in this country is on the inquiring, individual human mind. Our strength is founded there; our resilience, our ability to face an ever-changing future and to master it. We are not frozen into the backward-facing impotence of those societies, fixed in the rigidness of an official dogma, to which the future is the mirror of the past. We are free to make the future for ourselves.” MindHumansCountryPastFacesIndividualAbilityMastersMirrorsResilienceFixedOfficialsHuman MindDogmaFrozenRelianceImpotenceInquiring Author:Archibald MacLeish
