The Very Essence Of Literature Is The War Between Emotion And Intellect, Between Life And Death. When Literature Becomes Too Intellectual -- When It Begins To Ignore The Passions, The Motions -- It Becomes Sterile, Silly, And Actually Without Substance. ~ Isaac Bashevis Singe The Object Of Art Is To Crystallize Emotion Into Thought, And Then Fix It In Form. ~ Francois Delsarte The Most Beautiful Thing We Can Experience Is The Mysterious. It Is The Source Of All True Art And All Science. He To Whom This Emotion Is A Stranger, Who Can No Longer Pause To Wonder And Stand Rapt In Awe, Is As Good As Dead His Eyes Are Closed. ~ Albert Einstein Reason And Emotion Are Not Antagonists. What Seems Like A Struggle Is A Struggle Between Two Opposing Ideas Or Values, One Of Which, Automatic And Unconscious, Manifests Itself In The Form Of A Feeling. ~ Nathaniel Brandon The One Permanent Emotion Of The Inferior Man Is Fear - Fear Of The Unknown, The Complex, The Inexplicable. What He Wants Beyond Everything Else Is Safety. ~ H. L. Mencken Never Feel Self-pity, The Most Destructive Emotion There Is. How Awful To Be Caught Up In The Terrible Squirrel Cage Of Self. ~ Millicent Fenwick I Use Emotion For The Many And Reserve Reason For The Few. ~ Adolph Hitle We Often Use Strong Language Not To Express A Powerful Emotion But To Evoke It In Us. ~ Eric Hoffe Aesthetic Emotion Puts Man In A State Favorable To The Reception Of Erotic Emotion. Art Is The Accomplice Of Love. Take Love Away And There Is No Longer Art. ~ Rmy de Gourmont To Any Intelligent Being, There Is No Emotion More Important Than Hope. Individually Or Collectively, We Must Hope That The Future Will Be Better Than The Past, That Our Offspring, And Theirs After Them, Will Be A Bit Closer To An Ideal Society, Whatever Our Perception Of That Might Be... It Is At Those Times When We Feel We Are Contributing To That Ultimate End... We Feel True Elation. ~ R. A. Salvatore, Siege of Darkness Sex Is Emotion In Motion. ~ Mae West The Most Beautiful Experience We Can Have Is The Mysterious - The Fundamental Emotion Which Stands At The Cradle Of True Art And True Science. ~ Albert Einstein
