“The degree of one's emotions varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts.”
Bertrand Russell
“A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.”
Oscar Wilde
“The arousing of prejudice, pity, anger, and similar emotions has nothing to do with the essential facts, but is merely a personal appeal to the man who is judging the case.”
Aristotle
“If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds must grow.”
Rachel Carson
“The personal stuff for me is the best, ... And this one felt a little raw emotionally. I wanted to capture some stuff, to see if I could get it right. The way it feels to lose a loved one and find a reason to celebrate, oddly enough, as a result of learning who you are.”
Cameron Crowe
“We have a steamroller of emotion and a wall of facts. The emotions are rolling over everything right now.”
Kevin Barmann
“I rarely go through emotional pain. I don't find it necessary... So, while I appreciate you "not wanting to hurt my feelings" you should probably take into consideration...You CAN'T.”
