“The personality of the artist, at first a cry or a cadence or a mood and then a fluid, and lambent narrative, finally refines itself out of existence, impersonalises itself, so to speak. The aesthetic image in the dramatic form is life purified in and reprojected from the human imagination. The mystery of aesthetic like that of material creation is accomplished. The artist, like the God of the creation, remains within or behind or beyond or above his handiwork, invisible, refined out of existence, indifferent, paring his fingernails.” FirstsHumansArtGodFormArtistSpeakImaginationBehindsExistenceMysteryCryCreationMaterialsPersonalityRemainsMoodInvisibleNarrativeDramaticAccomplishedAestheticIndifferentAestheticsFluidRefinedFingernailsCadenceHuman ImaginationHandiwork Author:James Joyce
“Each soul has it's own path. Children are young personalities but they are not always young souls. Incarnation into the domain of the five senses is a dramatic act of spiritual responsibility. Neonates are great souls and so I honor their paths. I do the best that I can, but the best that I can do is to change myself. To make myself a citizen like I want others to be.” WantChildrenI CanSoulSpiritualYoungCan DoResponsibilityPathFivePersonalityCitizensHonorSensesDramaticDomainDo The BestIncarnationGreat SoulsFive Senses Author:Gary Zukav
“All hair is away from the face - there's no emotion and all of the personality is taken away. I envisioned the way a 'virtual girl' is drawn in a cartoon. Then I added these different colored extensions - white, red and black, which adds to the synthetic feeling of the hair. I used colors which looked most dramatic against each of the models' real hair. The different colors give you that pop of fakeness so we're not talking about reality.

“One of the marvels of personality is its resistance to prediction.

“He's [Constable] a great painter as far as it goes, but I don't think he's remotely interesting. Not really. It's very pretty and it's very thorough, but it's not evocative, it's not dramatic, it doesn't do what Beethoven does - it doesn't shake you down to the roots of your soul, which Turner does. Constable is just very nice, basically. And moving on to personality, Constable was a very dull character.” ThinkingDoeSoulCharacterMovingInterestingNicePersonalityRootsPainterYour SoulDramaticDullShakesVery NiceThoroughTurner Author:Mike Leigh

“The physical basis for sociopathy is approximately 50 percent inheritable, which sounds more dramatic than it probably is, because most personality characteristics that psychologists test for and study the genetics of are about 50 percent inheritable. Introversion, extroversion, it turns out that they're about 50 percent inheritable, which means that somehow sociopathy is physical, it's organic.” MeanStudyPersonalityDramaticPsychologistIntroversion Author:Martha Stout
“God isn't interested in watching you enact some performance of personality in order to comply with some crackpot notion you have about how a spiritual person looks or behaves.

“We now demand glamour and fast-flowing dramatic action. A generation of Christians reared among push buttons and automatic machines is impatient of slower and less direct methods of reaching their goals...The tragic results of this spirit all all about us: shallow lives, hollow religious philosophies...the glorification of men, trust is religious externalities....salesmanship methods, the mistaking of dynamic personality for the power of the Spirit. These and such of these are the symptoms of an evil disease.” MenPhilosophyInspirationActionChristianSpiritEvilGoalReligiousResultsGenerationsPersonalityDemandDiseaseDirectMachinesMethodDramaticReachingTragicButtonsShallowSymptomsHollowGlamourImpatientReligious PhilosophySalesmanshipGlorificationExternalitiesDynamic Personality Author:Aiden Wilson Tozer
