“Individuals of the earlier species had suffered from an almost insurmountable spiritual isolation from one another. Not even lovers, and scarcely even the geniuses with special insight into personality, ever had anything like accurate vision of one another... The most precious gift that a lover could bring to the beloved was not virginity but sexual experience. The union, it was felt, was the more pregnant the more each party could contribute from previous sexual and spiritual intimacy with others.” SpiritualIndividualFeltPartyVisionSpecialPersonalityGeniusLoversUnionsSpeciesInsightIntimacyBelovedIsolationAccuratePregnantVirginityPrecious GiftsInsurmountableOlaf Author:Olaf Stapledon
“Poetry examines an emotional truth. It's an experience filtered through the personality of the poet. We look to poetry for visions, not scientific truths. The poet's job is to combine new elements.

“in most important ways, leaders of the future will need the traits and capabilities of leaders throughout history: an eye for change and a steadying hand to provide both vision and reassurance that change can be mastered, a voice that articulates the will of the group and shapes it to constructive ends, and an ability to inspire by force of personality while making others feel empowered to increase and use their own abilities.” WayNeedsFeelsImportantEndsUseHandsEyeForceVoiceLeadershipAbilityLeaderVisionGroupsInspirePersonalityShapesIncreaseCapabilityTraitsEmpoweredConstructiveReassurance Author:Rosabeth Moss Kanter
“I think that the photographer must completely control his picture and bring to it all his personality, and in this area most photographs never transcend being just snapshots. When a great photographer does infuse the snapshot with his personality and vision, it can be transformed into something truly moving and beautiful.” ThinkingDoeBeautifulMovingVisionPersonalityAreasPhotographerPhotographTransformedSnapshots Author:Duane Michals
“Does anyone pray before they cut a tree? I haven't seen anyone do that yet in the timber industry. But my vision is that that day is coming. I have a vision of a world in which we relate to each other as souls - not as personalities - not as bodies and minds and capabilities to accomplish things in this domain of the five sense, but as immortal spirits learning together how to co-create this world.” WorldMindDoeSoulBodyTogetherSpiritVisionFiveCuttingTreeHavensThis WorldPersonalityIndustryPrayingAccomplishRelateImmortalCapabilityDomainMind And BodyTimber Author:Gary Zukav

“Education is character development, harmonious completion of human personality. But what the state accomplishes in this field is dull drill, extinction of natural feeling, narrowing of the spiritual field of vision, destruction of all the deeper elements of character in man. The state can train subjects...but it can never develop free men who take their affairs into their own hands; for independent thought is the greatest danger that it has to fear.” MenHumansStatesCharacterFeelingsHandsSpiritualNaturalVisionSubjectsDangerFieldsPersonalityDevelopmentElementsDestructionIndependentTrainAffairDeeperAccomplishDullExtinctionHarmoniousFree ManCompletionDrillsCharacter DevelopmentIndependent ThoughtHuman PersonalityNatural Feelings Author:Rudolf Rocker
“Seeing a photograph of myself is often pretty jarring. Why is it that the vision I see of myself in a photo is so different than the one I see in a mirror - not to mention the "self" that I see in my mind's eye? Pondering it can pretty easily cast me into a vortex of self-doubt, wondering how the me that people experience - my voice, my personality, my creative expression - is regarded without my knowledge.” PeopleMindDifferentSelfEyeVoiceWonderVisionCreativeDoubtSeeingExpressionPersonalityMirrorsPhotographCastsPonderingSelf-doubtVortexCreative Expression Author:Keith Murray
“Just because my personal life may not be in shambles any more it doesn't mean anything has been solved. A ring doesn't solve problems. I think I'm still having dark visions.

“In fashion, of course, the way that women are dressed now - and also a vision of the modern woman, the woman of today. She's very feminine, but at the same time, extremely free. A Saint Laurent woman is actually very Parisian. She's not really a man's equal, she's his adversary. I worked on the catwalk with two models who worked with Yves Saint Laurent for more than 10 years. They're not just gorgeous models, they're more than that - they're very smart and very beautiful. They're more than models, they're really unique; it's personality. It's more than just fashion.” TodayBeautifulVisionModernFashionPersonalityEqualUniqueSmartSaintFeminineGorgeousAdversariesVery BeautifulVery Smart Author:Jalil Lespert
