Impressions Quotes

All changes in space which we see, hear, smell or taste are literally tactile impressions. All our senses are variations of our unique sense of touch. Two approaching objects touch one another when they finally meet without a noticeable space between them... This is what happens in any condensing matter in which the outer aspects move towards a centre... Each single part of matter approaches its neighboring part until the two collide, causing an impact or a pressure. It is space, which appears and disappears between and round object and in the movements of the particles of the object Picture Quote #1

There are billions of people on earth. They are all transmitting thoughts and impressions, most of which are not directed towards enlightenment. If you are not focused, you will pick up these energies Picture Quote #1

When we are very young children we know how to feel. It’s innate. But as we lead a lifetime, we pick up so many thoughts, impressions, feelings, and ideas, that our sensitivity goes away Picture Quote #1

We are all the subjects of impressions, and some of use seek to convey the impressions to others. In the art of communicating impressions lies the power of generalizing without losing that logical connection of parts to the whole which satisfies the mind Picture Quote #1

If you start picking up other people’s impressions while you are meditating, then instead of clearing yourself, you are just going to completely glom yourself up to the point where there is no meditation Picture Quote #1

Only when there are no impressions of others clouding our mind, can we sit and practice the glorious practice of meditation Picture Quote #1

Two erroneous impressions... seem to be current among certain groups of uninformed persons. The first is that religion today stands for mediaeval theology; the second that science is materialistic and irreligious Picture Quote #1

Far more crucial than what we know or do not know is what we do not want to know. One often obtains a clue to a person’s nature by discovering the reasons for his or her imperviousness to certain impressions Picture Quote #1

We should see the desire for neatness, the desire for sharp impressions, as a desire in art Picture Quote #1

Let me recommend to you not to have too great dependence on your practice or memory, however strong those impressions may have been which are there deposited. They are forever wearing out, and will be at least obliterated, unless they are continually refreshed and repaired Picture Quote #1

The living model never answers well the idea or impressions the painter wishes to express; one must, therefore, learn to do without one, and for that, you must acquire facility, furnish one’s memory to the point of infinitude, and make numerous drawings after the old masters Picture Quote #1

Impressions are like pearls; ideas are like the string that turns the pearls into a necklace. The string is invisible, but it is not dispensable and cannot be broken Picture Quote #1

Short version: For the child..., it is not half so important to know as to feel. 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.... It is more important to pave the way for a child to want to know than to put him on a diet of facts that he is not ready to assimilate Picture Quote #1

Nothing can be done well at a speed of forty miles a day. The multitude of mixed, novel impressions rapidly piled on one another make only a dreamy, bewildering, swirling blur, most of which is unrememberable Picture Quote #1

An author never has a vacation. He’s a walking sponge, sopping up impressions till he’s saturated, then going to his desk and squeezing them out on paper Picture Quote #1

The greatness of art is not in the display of knowledge, or in material accuracy, but in the distinctness with which it conveys the impressions of a personal vital force, that acts spontaneously, without fear or hesitation Picture Quote #1

Collect impressions. Don’t be in a hurry to write them down. Because that’s something music can do better than painting: it can centralise variations of colour and light within a single picture a truth generally ignored, obvious as it is Picture Quote #1

My parents know I was outgoing as a child, and whenever people came over I’d automatically do impressions of them as soon as they left; it was my mom’s favorite thing Picture Quote #1

My technique, starting with a quick outline in pencil, is designed to record first impressions, with no time for second thoughts Picture Quote #1

I think in fact that unless there is an organic link between the subjective impressions of the author and his objective representation of reality, he will not achieve even superficial credibility, let alone authenticity and inner truth Picture Quote #1

First impressions are often signals from the deep that we should credit oftener than we do Picture Quote #1

Television’s compelling power is its immediacy... this immediacy feeds the politics of emotions, gut reactions and impressions rather than the politics of logic, facts and reason; it emphasizes personality rather than issues Picture Quote #1

The finest minds seem to be formed rather by efforts at original thinking, by endeavours to form new combinations, and to discover new truths, than by passively receiving the impressions of other men’s ideas Picture Quote #1

Beyond the world of thought and sensorial impressions, there are planes and dimensions of perfect light, knowledge, and radiant perfection Picture Quote #1

Painting keeps me occupied in those moments when travel can be aimless and even disorienting. Mainly it is a way to register at least some of the new impressions of a foreign place, when its thrilling barrage can sometimes overwhelm you Picture Quote #1

I get letters from classes all the time. Say it’s assigned in someone’s 8th grade class, and the teacher asks everyone to write a letter to me about their impressions and what they learned. So, it’s incredibly gratifying to hear Picture Quote #1

For me, acting is a series of impressions rather than trying to find one line through to the end, which risks becoming more of a presentation Picture Quote #1

First impressions matter. Experts say we size up new people in somewhere between 30 seconds and two minutes Picture Quote #1

Your grammar is a reflection of your image. Good or bad, you have made an impression. And like all impressions, you are in total control Picture Quote #1

What a wonderful thing it is that drop of seed, from which we are produced, bears in itself the impressions, not only of the bodily shape, but of the thoughts and inclinations of our fathers! Picture Quote #1
