October 6, 1774 I met those of our society who had votes in the ensuing election, and advised them 1. To vote, without fee or reward, for the person they judged most worthy 2. To speak no evil of the person they voted against, and 3. To take care their spirits were not sharpened against those that voted on the other side (Spirits Quotes)
It’s the reductionist approach to life: if you keep it small, you’ll keep it under control. If you don’t make any noise, the bogeyman won’t find you. But it’s all an illusion, because they die too, those people who roll up their spirits into tiny little balls so as to be safe. Safe?! From what? Life is always on the edge of death; narrow streets lead to the same place as wide avenues, and a little candle burns itself out just like a flaming torch does. I choose my own way to burn (Spirits Quotes)
We live in a kind of dark age, craftily lit with synthetic light, so that no one can tell how dark it has really gotten. But our exiled spirits can tell.

From my mother came the idea that going down to the sea repaired the spirit. That is where she walked when she was sad or worried or lonely for my father. If she had been crying, she came back composed; if she had left angry with us, she returned in good humor. So we naturally believed that there was a cleansing, purifying effect to be had; that letting the fresh wind blow through you mind and spirits as well as your hair and clothing purged black thoughts; that contemplating the ceaseless motion of the waves calmed a raging spirit (Spirits Quotes)
Passion begins where your bodies unite and ends where your souls dance. When your spirits can join together at the same time as your bodies become one, then all of you will be making love. There will be nothing left between you that is not love. This is sacred communion. This is ecstasy (Spirits Quotes)
Music is so powerful, it needs to be used for some kind of redeeming work. To lift peoples spirits, to lift their souls (Spirits Quotes)
Love is something we must have. We must have it because our spirits feed upon it (Spirits Quotes)
It’s like being possessed: like a psychic or a medium. I felt like a hollow temple filled with many spirits, each one passing through me, each inhabiting me for a little time and then leaving to be replaced by another (Spirits Quotes)
There is something electrifying about individuals with adventuresome spirits. They see life through a different lens. They almost emit electricity because nothing about them is dull or uninteresting or unplugged (Spirits Quotes)
It is the object of learning, not only to satisfy the curiosity and perfect the spirits of ordinary men, but also to advance civilization (Spirits Quotes)
There was something awesome in the thought of the solitary mortal standing by the open window and summoning in from the gloom outside the spirits of the nether world (Spirits Quotes)
From hence, no question, has sprung an observation... confirmed now into a settled opinion, that some long experienced souls in the world, before their dislodging, arrive to the height of prophetic spirits (Spirits Quotes)
When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking (Spirits Quotes)
I don’t know if spirits do indeed roam the world, but even if they do, I will sense your presence everywhere. When I listen to the ocean, it will be your whispers; when I see a dazzling sunset, it will be your image in the sky (Spirits Quotes)
We ought to take outdoor walks, to refresh and raise our spirits by deep breathing in the open air (Spirits Quotes)
Mirth, and even cheerfulness, when employed as remedies in low spirits, are like hot water to a frozen limb (Spirits Quotes)
He did not believe in angels with soft faces and bright wings, but he believed in the dark spirits that hovered over the heads of lonely men (Spirits Quotes)
And he played on a harp of a thousand strings, spirits of just men made perfect (Spirits Quotes)
You damned spirits! You can only do what the hand of God allows you to do (Spirits Quotes)
It is proper that noble spirits, equipped with truth and enlightened with the Divine intelligence, should arm themselves against dense ignorance by climbing up to the high rock and tower of contemplation. (Spirits Quotes)
I believe in ghosts and spirits, and I believe that they can possess you (Spirits Quotes)
What I do believe in is other worlds and spirits. There is some other power in control - levels of energy that perhaps we don’t see. (Spirits Quotes)
The distance between the glorified spirits in heaven and the militant saints on earth seems great; but it is not so. We are not far from home. Heaven... is just one sigh and we get there. Our departed friends are only in the upper room, as it were, of the same house; they have not gone far off; they are upstairs and we are down below. (Spirits Quotes)
