“A lost battle is a battle one thinks one has lost.”
Jean-Paul Sartre
“Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.”
Eskimo Proverb
“I think that one of the things that has changed the perception is that there are so many more single people. In New York City, it's 47 percent. When you have that many people who are single, they have a bigger voice and they're more willing to speak and say, 'We're not miserable, we're not sitting at home waiting for Mr. or Ms. Right, we're having a good time.' And I think single people have better friendships.”
Candace Bushnell
“Most of the mistakes in thinking are inadequacies of perception rather than mistakes of logic.”
Edward de Bono
“It is one of the commonest of mistakes to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive.”
C. W. Leadbeater
“I don't think there's anything unique about human intelligence. All the neurons in the brain that make up perceptions and emotions operate in a binary fashion.”
Bill Gates
“The act of smelling something, anything, is remarkably like the act of thinking. Immediately at the moment of perception, you can feel the mind going to work, sending the odor around from place to place, setting off complex repertories through the brain, polling one center after another for signs of re recognition, for old memories and old connection.”
