“Academic sociologists have been trained to conceive of their discipline - sociology - as the scientific study of society, and to remit to the sister discipline of psychology the study of individuals.” Has BeensIndividualStudyPsychologyDisciplineAcademicSociologySociologists Author:Richard Wall
“The great shift... is the movement away from the value-laden languages of... the "humanities," and toward the ostensibly value-neutral languages of the "sciences." This attempt to escape from, or to deny, valuation is... especially important in psychology... and the so-called social sciences. Indeed, one could go so far as to say that the specialized languages of these disciplines serve virtually no other purpose than to conceal valuation behind an ostensibly scientific and therefore nonvaluational semantic screen.” ImportantPurposeValuesHumanityLanguageSocialBehindsPsychologyMovementDisciplineDenyScreensSocial ScienceValuation Author:Thomas Szasz

“In anthropology, which historically exists to 'give voice' to others, there is no greater taboo than self-revelation. The impetus of our discipline, with its roots in Western fantasies about barbaric others, has been to focus primarily on 'cultural' rather than 'individual' realities. The irony is that anthropology has always been rooted in an 'I' - understood as having a complex psychology and history - observing a 'we' that, until recently, was viewed as plural, ahistorical, and nonindividuated.” GivingHas BeensSelfRealityIndividualVoiceFantasyPsychologyGreaterFocusDisciplineUnderstoodRootsComplexesWesternIronyRevelationsRootedObservingTabooAnthropologyBarbaricImpetusSelf Revelation Book:The Vulnerable Observer: Anthropology That Breaks Your Heart Source: The Vulnerable Observer: Anthropology That Breaks Your Heart

“Just remember, without discipline, a clear strategy, and a concise plan, the speculator will fall into all the emotional pitfalls of the market - jump from one stock to another, hold a losing position too long, and cut out of a winner too soon, for no reason other than fear of losing profit. Greed, Fear, Impatience, Ignorance, and Hope will all fight for mental dominance over the speculator. Then, after a few failures and catastrophes the speculator may become demoralised, depressed, despondent, and abandon the market and the chance to make a fortune from what the market has to offer.” MayLongReasonRememberFallFightingChanceClearPsychologyCuttingPlansPositionIgnoranceEmotionalDisciplineOffersLosingStrategyFortuneGreedProfitWinnerNo ReasonAbandonCatastropheImpatienceDominancePitfallsConciseSpeculatorsDespondent Author:Jesse Lauriston Livermore

“The object is evident in the name of the discipline. Similarly, theology (theologia) is the study of God. The object of theology is not the church's teaching or the experience of pious souls. It is not a subset of ethics, religious studies, cultural anthropology, or psychology. God is the object of this discipline.” SoulNamesChurchReligiousStudyPsychologyTeachingObjectsDisciplineEthicsTheologyEvidentAnthropologyPiousReligious Studies Author:Michael Horton
“Somaaesthetics can be provisionally defined a the critical meliorative study of one's experience and use of one's body as a locus of sensory-aesthetic appreciation (aesthesis) and creative self-fashioning.
