Minds Quotes
I don't kill flies but I like to mess with their minds. I hold them above globes. They freak out and yell, 'Whoa, I'm way too high!'
Bruce Baum
It's been forever since we have had everybody here, everybody healthy and everybody ready to go. Before this game I talked to the girls and we had a meeting of the minds and I really didn't know what to expect but the deal was we needed to come out and play our hearts out.
B. R. Hayden
Knowledge cannot be stolen from us. It cannot be bought or sold. We may be poor, and the sheriff may come and sell our furniture, or drive away our cow, or take our pet lamb, and leave us homeless and penniless; but he cannot lay the law's hand upon the jewelry of our minds.
Elihu Burritt
Africa is cruel...it takes your heart and grinds it into powdered stone - and no-one minds.
Elspeth Huxley
…these mothers at their midnight council were more like one great mind probing itself, divided at times as great minds may be, but one entity.
Elizabeth Cunningham
I get criticized for a lot of what I write about, but as far as I'm concerned I'm actually standing up and having a look at what goes on in the minds of men, and I have the authority to talk about it because I'm a man.
Nick Cave
The Birthday Party
Timorous minds are much more inclined to deliberate than to resolve.
Jean Francois Paul de Gondi
It seems that God took away the minds of poets that they might better express His.
Socrates
When the mind has a tendency to dream, it is a mistake to keep dreams away from it, to ration its dreams. So long as you distract your mind from its dreams, it will not know them for what they are; you will always be being taken in by the appearance of things, because you will not have grasped their true nature. If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time. One must have a thorough understanding of one.
Marcel Proust
Most boys or youths who have had much knowledge drilled into them, have their mental capacities not strengthened, but overlaid by it. They are crammed with mere facts, and with the opinions and phrases of other people, and these are accepted as a substitute for the power to form opinions of their own. And thus, the sons of eminent fathers, who have spared no pains in their education, so often grow up mere parroters of what they have learnt, incapable of using their minds except in the furrows traced for them.
John Stuart Mill
