But the mind is an attribute of the individual. There is no such thing as a collective brain. There is no such thing as a collective thought. An agreement reached by a group of men is only a compromise or an average drawn upon many individual thoughts.
I've got quite a big fan base, and people like to see you do the same thing - that's why you get offered the same roles.
That's my thing - keep filled with faith. Keep doing what you can do and I believe God will do what you can't do.
I don't want to try to recreate for no reason. Like, me in my bedroom, singing songs to a camera was a special thing that was at that time in my life. But I'm just not that kid. I like the format of it, but I want to be able to release things for free.
I mean, Dodd-Frank is strangling small community banks. It doesn't make any difference what the interest rate is. They're not - they're not going to loan the money because they can't make any money for one thing plus the cost of compliance.
The worst thing about permaculture is that it's extremely successful, but it has no center, and no hierarchy.
Fear is the enemy of logic. There is no more debilitating, crushing, self-defeating, sickening thing in the world--to an individual or to a nation.
Life and death are but phases of the same thing, the reverse and obverse of the same coin. Death is as necessary for man's growth as life itself.
Wrestling is part of what I do, but far from the only thing.
One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired.
I?d rather be rejected than used because they both amount to the same thing in the end, but being used takes a lot longer.
The best thing about religion is that it's so transparently absurd it can't possibly last forever. I'm convinced it will only take a small shift in human consciousness for it to be laughed off the planet, and I hope I'm still around when that happens.
The works have to look like they're confident. But they also have to look sort of troubled. It's this weird thing: "Does that look confident and troubled?" It's a bit like difficult poetry.
It would be a sad thing if the religious and moral convictions upon which the American experiment was founded could now somehow be considered a danger to free society.
Make sure the thing you're living for is worth dying for.
The thing that I champion is sustainability. My terror is that suddenly we see it as a luxury, not an essential. That's a danger.
That's the great thing about a tractor. You can't really hear the phone ring.
The striking thing about the Precious Blood is the bond it establishes between love and suffering in our experience, a bond that has become so close that we have come to think of suffering accepted with joy as the most authentic sign of love with any depth at all.
The soul of me is very selfish. I have gone my way after a fashion that made me the center of the plan. And you who are so individual, who are so independent a spirit, whose soul is also a kingdom, have been so loyal, so forgiving, so self-sacrificing in your willingness to live my life. Nothing but love cold have accomplished so wonderful a thing.
Holding a note is a very difficult thing - you have to use your whole body to achieve a perfect pitch.
