“One discards rhyme, not because one is incapable of rhyming neat, fleet, sweet, meet, treat, eat, feet but because there are certain emotions or energies which are nor represented by the over-familiar devices or patterns.” CertainEnergyEmotionFeetSweetTreatsPatternsFamiliarDevicesIncapableRhymeNeatRhyming Author:Ezra Pound
“Women believe -- or at least often pretend to believe -- that all our tenderness for them springs from desire; that we love them when we have not for a time enjoyed them, and dismiss them when we are sated, or to express it more precisely, exhausted. There is no truth in this idea, though it may be made to appear true. When we are rigid with desire, we are apt to pretend a great tenderness in the hope of satisfying that desire; but at no other time are we in fact so liable to treat women brutally, and so unlikely to feel any deep emotion but one.” FeelsBelieveMayMadeIdeasFactsDesireWomenEmotionSpringTreatsEnjoyedSatisfyingTendernessExhaustedUnlikelyLiableSatedDeep Emotions Book:Shadow & Claw: The First Half of 'The Book of the New Sun' Source: Shadow & Claw: The First Half of 'The Book of the New Sun'
“As a songwriter, you're never off - for me, anyway. There's a certain mentality of people that decide, "Oh, we're going to try to write songs from this time of the day to this time of the day." Almost treat it like a real job. I can't do that. I've never been able to write songs like that. You never know when something creative is going to hit you, or emotion or whatever. You can take it, and turn it into something that makes somebody feel something.

“Compassion is an emotion of which we ought never to be ashamed. Graceful, particularly in youth, is the tear of sympathy, and the heart that melts at the tale of woe. We should not permit ease and indulgence to contract our affections, and wrap us up in a selfish enjoyment; but we should accustom ourselves to think of the distresses of human, life, of the solitary cottage; the dying parent, and the weeping orphan. Nor ought we ever to sport with pain and distress in any of our amusements, or treat even the meanest insect with wanton cruelty.” ThinkingShouldHumansHeartPainSportsParentEmotionCompassionDyingYouthTearsOughtTreatsAffectionSelfishTalesCrueltyEaseHuman LifeEnjoymentAshamedContractsPermitSolitaryDistressWoeInsectsAmusementWrapsWeepingIndulgenceOrphanCottagesWanton Author:Hugh Blair

“There is nothing more distressing ... than the hard, scoffing spirit which treats the allegation of dishonesty in a public man as a cause for laughter.

“We don't save our soul and leave our emotions and our feelings and our body and all the rest of it out. That's just a way of talking that emphasizes the soul is so fundamental that we can, in some cases, treat it as the whole person because it actually is the thing that integrates all of these aspects of the self and makes them work together. Now, I don't think we can find a passage in the Bible that says that. We have to read and study how it addresses the soul, and we then see that it is the deepest, most vital part of the human self.” ThinkingWayHumansPersonsSoulSelfWholeFeelingsBodyTogetherEmotionTalkingCasesStudyAspectTreatsFundamentalsAddressesWorking TogetherPassagesIntegratingWhole PersonWay Of Talking Author:Dallas Willard
“I should attempt to treat human vice and folly geometrically... the passions of hatred, anger, envy, and so on, considered in themselves, follow from the necessity and efficacy of nature...

“The problem isn't who is in charge. It's what is in charge. The problem is that people are encouraged to function as machines. Or, actually, as mechanisms. Human emotion and sympathy are unprofessional. They are inappropriate to the exercise of reason. Everything which makes people good - makes them human - is ruled out. The system doesn't care about people, but we treat it as if it were one of us, as if it were the sum of our goods and not the product of our least admirable compromises.” PeopleIfsHumansReasonProblemCareEmotionProductsExerciseMachinesTreatsFunctionCompromiseGoodsMechanismAdmirableInappropriateHuman Emotions Book:The Gone-Away World Source: The Gone-Away World
