Some children are born from heaven and others are born from hell, because each human being has his inherent tendencies, and these tendencies belong to his spirit, and indicate the state in which he existed before he was born Picture Quote #1

Ransom thought her girly tendencies the funniest thing ever, constantly teased her over them, but the last time he’d opened his big mouth, she’d gotten her own back by pointing out that his long black hair sure did look well conditioned Picture Quote #1

The old wars were decided by their episodes rather than by their tendencies. In this war, the tendencies are far more important than the episodes Picture Quote #1

Bad architecture is in the end as much a failure of psychology as of design. It is an example expressed through materials of the same tendencies which in other domains will lead us to marry the wrong people, choose inappropriate jobs and book unsuccessful holidays: the tendency not to understand who we are and what will satisfy us Picture Quote #1

We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do Picture Quote #1

Cosmic evolution may teach us how the good and evil tendencies of man may have come about; but, in itself, it is incompetent to furnish any better reason why what we call good is preferable to what we call evil than we had before. Some day, I doubt not, we shall arrive at an understanding of the evolution of the aesthetic faculty; but all the understanding in the world will neither increase nor diminish the force of the intuition that this is beautiful and that is ugly Picture Quote #1

I have devoted 30 years of research to how creative people live and work, to make more understandable the mysterious process by which they come up with new ideas and new things. If I had to express in one word what makes their personalities different from others, it’s complexity. They show tendencies of thought and action that in most people are segregated. They contain contradictory extremes; instead of being an individual, each of them is a multitude Picture Quote #1

In listing these tendencies making for a new world, we must not forget developments in the religious or spiritual thinking and feeling of mankind, where also we feel a strong unifying trend Picture Quote #1

We cannot change the profound and resistless tendencies of the age toward religious liberty. It is our business to guide and control their application Picture Quote #1

Human life is full of the play of samskaras - tendencies developed by repeated actions Picture Quote #1

Competitiveness is just as much a part of our nature as empathy. The ideal, in my view, is a democratic system with a social market economy, because it takes both tendencies into account Picture Quote #1

God desires to change us from the inside out. Renewing our minds, starving our self-destructive tendencies, and teaching us to form new habits Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been more visual-based. I’ve kept my musical tendencies kind of in the closet Picture Quote #1

The French Revolution, Fichte’s Theory of Knowledge, and Goethe’s Wilhelm Meister are the three greatest tendencies of the age. Whoever takes offence at this combination, and whoever does not consider a revolution important unless it is blatant and palpable, has not yet risen to the lofty and broad vantage point of the history of mankind Picture Quote #1

There is the possibility that humankind can outgrow its infantile tendencies, as I suggested in Childhood’s End. But it is amazing how childishly gullible humans are Picture Quote #1
