Primitive Quotes

Primitive does not mean stupid Picture Quote #1

I’m just a very primitive, infantile folk singer Picture Quote #1

The freedom of cross country is so primitive. It’s woman vs. nature Picture Quote #1

I learned the hard way how desperately primitive is the technology we have for monitoring the health of someone with a chronic illness Picture Quote #1

We carry our past with us, to wit, the primitive and inferior man with his desires and emotions, and it is only with an enormous effort that we can detach ourselves from this burden. If it comes to a neurosis, we invariably have to deal with a considerably intensified shadow. And if such a person wants to be cured it is necessary to find a way in which his conscious personality and his shadow can live together Picture Quote #1

The consideration of human suffering is not one which enters into the calculations of primitive man Picture Quote #1

Music is good, not evil. Poetry is good, not evil. Primitive, but oh, so true! Picture Quote #1

We feel that to reveal embarrassing or private things, we have given someone something, that, like a primitive person fearing that a photographer will steal his soul, we identify our secrets, our past and their blotches, with our identity, that revealing our habits or losses or deeds somehow makes one less of oneself Picture Quote #1

To a person in love, the value of the individual is intuitively known. Love needs no logic for its mission. It roots in a bare wisdom that exists in senses more than mind, a wisdom that, in primitive form, evolved the mind which so often overlooks it Picture Quote #1

Is there not in every human soul a primitive spark, a divine element, incorruptible in this world and immortal in the next, which can be developed by goodness, kindled, lit up, and made to radiate, and which evil can never entirely extinguish Picture Quote #1

What quarrel, what harshness, what unbelief in each other can subsist in the presence of a great calamity, when all the artificial vesture of our life is gone, and we are all one with each other in primitive mortal needs? Picture Quote #1

Shocked to realize how much vitality is required simply to support our primitive requirements, we wonder, bewildered, where Art fits in Picture Quote #1

I secretly understood: The primitive appeal of the hearth. Television is - it's irresistible charm - a fire Picture Quote #1

The attempt to regulate, control, and prescribe all manner of conduct and social relations is very old. It was always the practice of primitive peoples Picture Quote #1

If a serious statement is defined as one that may be made in terms of waking life, poetry will never rise to the level of seriousness. It lies beyond seriousness, on that more primitive and original level where the child, the animal, the savage, and the seer belong, in the region of dream, enchantment, ecstasy, laughter. To understand poetry we must be capable of donning the child’s soul like a magic cloak and of forsaking man’s wisdom for the child’s Picture Quote #1

Listening is a rare happening among human beings. You cannot listen to the word another is speaking if you are preoccupied with your appearance, or with impressing the other, or are trying to decide what you are going to say when the other stops talking, or are debating about whether what is being said is true or relevant or agreeable. Such matters have their place, but only after listening to the word as the word is being uttered. Listening is a primitive act of love in which a person gives himself to another’s word, making himself accessible and vulnerable to that word Picture Quote #1

Smell is the primordial sense, more powerful, more primitive, more intimately tied to our memories and emotions than any other. A scent can trigger spiritual, emotional or physical peace and stimulate healing and wellness Picture Quote #1

People just don’t laugh when their family is violated, and you don’t shrug it off. You band together and you defend together. It’s a funny, primitive instinct Picture Quote #1

Space, like time, engenders forgetfulness; but it does so by setting us bodily free from our surroundings and giving us back our primitive, unattached state Picture Quote #1

Every neurosis is a primitive form of legal proceeding in which the accused carries on the prosecution, imposes judgment and executes the sentence: all to the end that someone else should not perform the same process Picture Quote #1

Bred with just the right amount of fresh air, roughhousing, and ignorance, these primitive blondes set out from the cornfields looking like starlight with limbs Picture Quote #1

Anthropologists are a connecting link between poets and scientists; though their field-work among primitive peoples has often made them forget the language of science Picture Quote #1
