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 Poetry Is Not A Turning Loose Of Emotion, But An Escape From Emotion; It Is Not The Expression Of Personality But An Escape From Personality. But, Of Course, Only Those We Have Personality And Emotion Know What It Means To Want To Escape From These Things.
~ Emily Dickinson 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 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 An Ounce Of Emotion Is Equal To A Ton Of Facts.
~ John Juno 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 Most Beautiful And Most Profound Emotion We Can Experience Is The Sensation Of The Mystical. It Is The Sower Of All True Science. So To Whom This Emotion Is A Stranger, Who Can No Longer Wonder And Stand Rapt In Awe, Is As Good As Dead. To Know That Which Is Impenetretrable To Us Really Exists, Manifesting Itself As The Highest Wisdom And The Most Radiant Beauty Which Our Dull Faculties Can Comprehend Only In Their Primitive Forms-this Knowledge, This Feeling Is At The Center Of True Religiousness.
~ Albert Einstein There Are Moments In Life, When The Heart Is So Full Of Emotion That If By Chance It Be Shaken, Or Into Its Depths Like A Pebble Drops Some Careless Word, It Overflows, And Its Secret, Spilt On The Ground Like Water, Can Never Be Gathered Together.
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 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 We Often Use Strong Language Not To Express A Powerful Emotion But To Evoke It In Us.
~ Eric Hoffe Joy Is But The Sign That Creative Emotion Is Fulfilling Its Purpose.
~ Charles Du Bos The Oldest And Strongest Emotion Of Mankind Is Fear. And The Oldest And Strongest Kind Of Fear Is Fear Of The Unknown.
~ H. P. Lovecraft
