“Spontaneously to God should turn the soul, Like the magnetic needle to the pole; But what were that intrinsic virtue worth, Suppose some fellow, with more zeal than knowledge, Fresh from St. Andrew's College, Should nail the conscious needle to the north?” ShouldSoulTurnsVirtueInfluenceCollegeConsciousFellowsNailsZealNeedlesAndrewMagnetic Author:Thomas Hood
“Actions which are conscious expressions of the turn-on, tune-in, drop-out rhythm are religious.The wise person devotes his life exclusively to the religious search - for therein is found the only ecstasy, the only meaning. Anything else is a competitive quarrel over (or Hollywood-love sharing of) studio props.” PersonsActionTurnsFoundReligiousWiseExpressionConsciousHollywoodStudiosRhythmTunesEcstasyQuarrelsTurn-onPropsWise Person Author:Timothy Leary
“I started getting back into buying old analog gear while we were recording. Lots of old drum machines and synths. It wasn't a conscious thing.

“Literature is at once the cause and the effect of social progress. It deepens our natural sensibilities, and strengthens by exercise our intellectual capacities. It stores up the accumulated experience of the race, connecting Past and Present into a conscious unity; and with this store it feeds successive generations, to be fed in turn by them.” PastTurnsLiteratureSocialCausesNaturalRaceProgressGenerationsEffectsExerciseIntellectualConsciousCapacityUnityStoresFedsSensibilityConnectingPast And PresentSocial Progress Author:George Henry Lewes
“Whenever there's a camera in my face, that's when I feel vulnerable, and then it turns into a little bit of being self-conscious, which I think is the worst kind of vulnerability.” ThinkingFeelsKindLittlesSelfFacesTurnsBitsWorstLittle BitConsciousCamerasVulnerableVulnerabilitySelf Conscious Author:Jason Mraz
“The nearer Christ comes to a heart, the more it becomes conscious of its guilt; it will then either ask for his mercy and find peace, or else it will turn against Him because it is not yet ready to give up its sinfulness. Thus He will separate the good from the bad, the wheat from the chaff. Man's reaction to this Divine Presence will be the test: either it will call out all the opposition of egotistic natures, or else galvanize them into a regeneration and a resurrection.” MenGivingHeartTurnsAsksChristDivineReadyGiving UpConsciousTestsMercyGuiltReactionsOppositionResurrectionWheatFinding PeaceRegenerationSinfulnessReady To Give Up Book:Life of Christ Source: Life of Christ
