“The landscape is a reflection of the inner life. Since I can't shoot the inner life, all I can shoot is the exterior but I know that when I'm filming outside, I'm filming inside. I can only really touch the inside through the mise-en-scene. So through the mise-en-scene of the outside we can explore the inside” KnowsI CanSceneReflectionLandscapeInner LifeExterior Author:Bruno Dumont
“The dark is a quiet place. Reflection and contemplation are the only things to do in it. Well that, and imagine the worst things possible. I don’t have to reflect or contemplate or any of those things. I know what the worst things possible are. I know about the things that hide in the dark. Insanity is the least of them.” KnowsWellsDarkImagineWorstQuietReflectionInsanityThings To DoContemplationContemplatingWorst ThingsQuiet Place Author:Tara Brown
“As I've gone through life, I've found that your chances for happiness are increased if you wind up doing something that is a reflection of what you loved most when you were somewhere between nine and eleven years old. [...] At that age, you know enough of the world to have opinions about things, but you're not old enough yet to be overly influenced by the crowd or by what other people are doing or what you think you 'should' be doing. If what you do later on ties into that reservoir in some way, then you are nurturing some essential part of yourself.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsWorldWayShouldYearsEnoughAgeFoundChanceOpinionGoneWindEssentialsReflectionCrowdsNineTiesElevenNurturingReservoirs Author:Walter Murch

“Are you aware that your spirit needs to be fed? Did you know that your spirit would be delighted to partake in a feast of spiritual food? How about a plate full of prayer? Or maybe a few hours of succulent self-reflection. Perhaps a piping-hot selection of spiritual literature, served by the side of a lake or under a tree, would satisfy your spiritual hunger. Can you imagine feasting for a few hours on spiritually uplifting music? What about some forgiveness à la mode, topped with compassion? You cannot imagine how much your spirit would enjoy it.” KnowsNeedsSelfWould BeSpiritualSpiritLiteratureEnjoySidesHoursPrayerCompassionImagineTreeReflectionHotHungerUpliftingLakesFedsPlatesSelectionSelf ReflectionDelightedDid You KnowFeastingSucculentsSpiritual HungerSpiritual Food Author:Iyanla Vanzant
“I must first know myself, as the Delphian inscription says; to be curious about that which is not my concern, while I am still in ignorance of my own self, would be ridiculous. And therefore I bid farewell to all this; the common opinion is enough for me. For, as I was saying, I want to know not about this, but about myself: am I a monster more complicated and swollen with passion than the serpent Typho, or a creature of a gentler and simpler sort, to whom Nature has given a diviner and lowlier destiny?” KnowsWantFirstsStillsSelfEnoughWould BePassionGivenMy OwnCommonOpinionDestinyIgnoranceCreaturesReflectionConcernComplicatedRidiculousMonstersCuriousFarewellSerpentSwollenInscriptions Author:Socrates
“The difficulty really is psychological and exists in the perpetual torment that results from your saying to yourself, "But how can it be like that?" which is a reflection of uncontrolled but utterly vain desire to see it in terms of something familiar. ... If you will simply admit that maybe Nature does behave like this, you will find her a delightful, entrancing thing. Do not keep saying to yourself, if you can possible avoid it, "But how can it be like that?" because you will get 'down the drain', into a blind alley from which nobody has escaped. Nobody knows how it can be like that.” IfsKnowsDoeScienceDesireTermResultsKnow HowReflectionDifficultyBlindFamiliarPsychologicalVainBehavePerpetualDelightfulTormentDrainsNobody KnowsAlleys Author:Richard P.
