Your world is a living expression of how you are using and have used your mind.
Earl Nightingale
The mind moves in the direction of our currently dominant thoughts
Prayer puts you in touch with the infinite and prepares your mind for the finite.
Peter Daniel
Iron rusts from disuse, stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigors of the mind.
Leonardo DaVinci
As every divided kingdom falls, so every mind divided between many studies confounds and saps itself.
Irony is the hygiene of the mind.
Elizabeth Bibesco
Craftiness is a quality in the mind and a vice in the character.
S. Dubay
Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Mind moves matter.
Virgil
We are to regard the mind, not as a piece of iron to be laid upon the anvil and hammered into any shape, nor as a block of marble in which we are to find the statue by removing the rubbish, nor as a receptacle into which knowledge may be poured; but as a flame that is to be fed, as an active being that must be strengthened to think and to feel -- and to dare, to do, and to suffer.
Mark Hopkins
What it comes down to is that modern society discriminates against the right hemisphere.
Roger Sperry
It is the mind that maketh good or ill, that maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor.
Edmund Spenser
We must realize that the subconscious mind is the law of action and always expresses what the conscious mind has impressed on it. What we regularly entertain in our mind creates a conception of self. What we conceive ourselves to be, we become.
Grace Speare
Where there is an open mind, there will always be a frontier.
Dorothea Brande
Man's mind is not a container to be filled but rather a fire to be kindled.
It is psychological law that whatever we desire to accomplish we must impress upon the subjective or subconscious mind.
Orison Swett Marden
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
H.P. (Howard Phillips) Lovecraft
The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.
Henri Bergson
Man is to himself the most wonderful object in nature; for he cannot conceive what the body is, still less what the mind is, and least of all how a body should be united to a mind. This is the consummation of his difficulties, and yet it is his very being.
Blaise Pascal
There comes a time when the mind takes a higher plane of knowledge but can never prove how it got there. All great discoveries have involved such a leap. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
