Text Quotes
In this retirement of the mind from the senses, it retains a yet more incoherent manner of thinking, which we call dreaming (The Senses Quotes)
Beauty must appeal to the senses, must provide us with immediate enjoyment, must impress us or insinuate itself into us without any effort on our part (The Senses Quotes)
Fear of error which everything recalls to me at every moment of the flight of my ideas, this mania for control, makes men prefer reason’s imagination to the imagination of the senses. And yet it is always the imagination alone which is at work (The Senses Quotes)
There are movements which impinge upon the nerves with a strength that is incomparable, for movement has power to stir the senses and emotions, unique in itself (The Senses Quotes)
When music fails to agree to the ear, to soothe the ear and the heart and the senses, then it has missed the point (The Senses Quotes)
Without renouncing the support of physics, it is possible for the physiology of the senses, not only to pursue its own course of development, but also to afford to physical science itself powerful assistance (The Senses Quotes)
The essential attribute of a new sense is, not the perception of external objects or influences which ordinarily do not act upon the senses, but that external causes should excite in it a new and peculiar kind of sensation different from all the sensations of our five senses (The Senses Quotes)
For disorder obstructs: besides, it doth disgust life, distract the appetities, and yield no true relish to the senses (The Senses Quotes)
Every gesture is a gesture from the blood, every expression a symbolic utterance... Everything is of the blood, of the senses (The Senses Quotes)
All observers not laboring under hallucinations of the senses are agreed, or can be made to agree, about facts of sensible experience, through evidence toward which the intellect is merely passive, and over which the individual will and character have no control (The Senses Quotes)
The source of genius is imagination alone, the refinement of the senses that sees what others do not see, or sees them differently (The Senses Quotes)
Metaphysics abstracts the mind from the senses, and the poetic faculty must submerge the whole mind in the senses. Metaphysics soars up to universals, and the poetic faculty must plunge deep into particulars (The Senses Quotes)
Though selfishness hath defiled the whole man, yet sensual pleasure is the chief part of its interest, and, therefore, by the senses it commonly works; and these are the doors and windows by which iniquity entereth into the soul (The Senses Quotes)
In exalting the faculties of the soul, we annihilate, in a great degree, the delusion of the senses (The Senses Quotes)
The woman who first gives life, light, and form to our shadowy conceptions of beauty, fills a void in our spiritual nature that has remained unknown to us till she appeared. Sympathies that lie too deep for words, too deep almost for thoughts, are touched, at such times, by other charms than those which the senses feel and which the resources of expression can realise. The mystery which underlies the beauty of women is never raised above the reach of all expression until it has claimed kindred with the deeper mystery in our own souls (The Senses Quotes)
I’m now making myself as scummy as I can. Why? I want to be a poet, and I’m working at turning myself into a seer. You won’t understand any of this, and I’m almost incapable of explaining it to you. The idea is to reach the unknown by the derangement of all the senses. It involves enormous suffering, but one must be strong and be a born poet. It’s really not my fault (The Senses Quotes)
In the uncertain ebb and flow of time and emotions, much of one’s life history is etched in the senses. And things of no particular importance, or irreplaceable things, can suddenly resurface in a café one winter night (The Senses Quotes)
Working in the garden gives me something beyond the enjoyment of the senses. It gives me a profound feeling of inner peace (The Senses Quotes)
Outside our consciousness there lies the cold and alien world of actual things. Between the two stretches the narrow borderland of the senses. No communication between the two worlds is possible excepting across the narrow strip. For a proper understanding of ourselves and of the world, it is of the highest importance that this borderland should be thoroughly explored (The Senses Quotes)
Perfume opens endless horizons. It appeals both to the senses and to the imagination. Like an enchantment, it works on an instinctive level and at the same time is extremely subtle (The Senses Quotes)
The body, the mind, and the spirit don’t form a pyramid, they form a circle. Each of them runs into the other two. The body isn’t below the mind and the spirit; from the point of view it’s between them. if you reside too much in the mind, then you get too abstract and cut off from the world. You long for the spiritual life, but you can’t get to it, and you fall into despair. The exercise of the senses frees you from abstraction and opens the way to transcendence (The Senses Quotes)
There comes a voluptuous moment when the senses and the whole skin tingle with a sharpened awareness of the body and the world around (The Senses Quotes)
The language of gardening fuels the senses: talk with your hands, observe with your ears and listen with your eyes (The Senses Quotes)
Out in the field I try not to hold expectations. I try to achieve an openness. The senses heighten so that I am totally immersed in what’s happening at the moment. I want to be receptive to an image coming together (The Senses Quotes)
Magic consists of creating, by misdirection of the senses, the mental impression of supernatural agency at work. That, and only that, is what modern magic really is, and that meaning alone is now assignable to the term (The Senses Quotes)
Between beauty of expression and power of expression there is a difference of function. The first aims at pleasing the senses, the second has a spiritual vitality which for me is more moving and goes deeper than the senses (The Senses Quotes)
As much as the needs of fact, the needs of the spirit and the senses, must be satisfied. Architecture is as much a part of the realm of art as it is of technology; the fusion of thinking and feeling (The Senses Quotes)
We must be pure. I do not speak merely of the purity of the senses. We must observe great purity in our will, in our intentions, in all our actions (The Senses Quotes)
God made the senses turn outwards, man therefore looks outwards, not into himself. But occasionally a daring soul, desiring immortality, has looked back and found himself (The Senses Quotes)
A real theatrical experience shakes the calm of the senses, liberates the compressed unconscious and drives towards a kind of potential revolt (The Senses Quotes)
