“One of the great cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our thought will come true in our experience. When we hold something, anything, in our thought, then somehow coincidence leads us in the direction that we've been wishing to lead ourselves.” ThinkingLawWishCosmicCoincidenceOur Thoughts Author:Richard Bach
“To me, an economy that sees the life of a community or a place as expendable, and reckons its value only in terms of money, is not acceptable because it is not realistic. I am thinking as I believe we must think if we wish to discuss the best uses of people, places, and things, and if we wish to give affection some standing in our thoughts.” PeopleIfsThinkingGivingBelieveUseValuesI BelieveWishTermCommunityEconomyStandingAffectionRealisticAcceptableConsumerismOur ThoughtsOverconsumptionExpendables Book:What Matters?: Economics for a Renewed Commonwealth Source: What Matters?: Economics for a Renewed Commonwealth
“The only reason why we wish to exchange thoughts is that we are different. If we were all the same, we would die dumb. No thought would be expressed after we found that our thoughts were precisely alike. We differ-our thoughts are different. Therefore the commerse that we call conversation.” IfsDifferentReasonWould BeDiesFoundWishConversationDumbReason WhyOpennessOur Thoughts Book:The Works of Robert G.

“All our thoughts and concepts are called up by sense-experiences and have a meaning only in reference to these sense-experiences. On the other hand, however, they are products of the spontaneous activity of our minds; they are thus in no wise logical consequences of the contents of these sense-experiences. If, therefore, we wish to grasp the essence of a complex of abstract notions we must for the one part investigate the mutual relationships between the concepts and the assertions made about them; for the other, we must investigate how they are related to the experiences.” IfsMindArtMadeWisdomHandsHopeWishKnowledgeWiseProductsActivityConceptsConsequenceEssenceExperienceComplexesNotionRelatedAbstractLogicalMutualOur ThoughtsSpontaneousAssertion Author:Albert Einstein
