“Negatywna emocja to „zdanie” naszej wewnętrznej osoby, która nie zgadza się z takim sposobem myślenia. To wewnętrzny konflikt myśli (przekonania) i naszych naturalnych przyrodzonych pragnień i oczekiwań w stosunku do życia. Nasza wewnętrzna osoba rości sobie prawo do szczęścia i dobrobytu, dlatego generuje negatywną emocję za każdym razem, gdy dopuszczamy inną możliwość. Zazwyczaj nasze przekonania są nieświadome, dlatego negatywne emocje są na tyle silne i dyskomfortowe, żeby skłonić nas do zauważenia problemu i głęboko stojącego za nim ukrytego przeświadczenia.”

“Jeśli czujemy się winni, bez względu na to, co zrobiliśmy, to emocje wyraźnie dają do zrozumienia, że nie jest to postawa zgodna z naszą wewnętrzną osobą, że w tej chwili swoimi myślami i nastawieniem zabieramy sobie prawo do szczęścia, które z natury jest nasze. Poczucie winy zawsze wiąże się z możliwością kary i poniesienia niekorzystnych konsekwencji, dlatego czując się winni, nieświadomie godzimy się z potrzebą przyjęcia gorszej i niechcianej wersji życia. Obecność negatywnych emocji mówi o tym, że nasza wewnętrzna osoba nie zgadza się z taką postawą, dlatego jednocześnie uczy nas nowego podejścia do sytuacji.”

“Emocje określają stopień zgodności naszej postawy, naszego nastawienia i przekonań wobec siebie i życia ze standardem ustanowionym przez życie.”

“Dzieci nie mają wyraźnego obrazu tego, kim są, nie mają myśli, które mogłyby zaprzeczyć zachowaniu, jakie wobec nich się okazuje. Gdy powiedziałem coś do mojej 3-letniej córki, co wiązało się z jej bajką i co nie było zgodne z prawdą, to w odpowiedzi słyszałem „tato, nie!”. Gdybym jednak podniósł głos na nią lub wyraził silne niezadowolenie z jej zachowania, to przyjęłaby to z powagą albo rozpłakałaby się. W każdym wypadku przyjęłaby moje zachowanie za słuszne i z nim się zgodziła.”

“Co w życiu jest najważniejsze? Każdy z nas i bez zastanowienia intuicyjnie to wie. Każdy nasz krok, decyzja i staranie niesie w sobie pragnienie przyjemnych doznań, wrażeń, uczuć. Gdy myślimy o rzeczach, które chcemy zrobić, mieć, kim i z kim chcemy być, choć są to tysiące możliwości, za każdym z nich stoi pragnienie, by poczuć się dobrze.”

“(...) I share almost ninety-nine per cent of my genes with a chimpanzee - and our longevity is virtually the same - but I don't think you have an inkling of how much more I comprehend, and yet I know I must tear myself away from it. For example, I have a good grasp of just how infinitely great outer space is and how it's divided into galaxies and clusters of galaxies, spirals and lone stars, and that there are healthy stars and febrile red giants, white dwarfs and neutron stars, planets ans asteroids. I know everything about the sun and moon, about the evolution of life on earth, about the Pharaohs and the Chinese dynasties, the countries of the world and their peoples as presently constituted, not to mention all the studying I've done on plants and animals, canals and lakes, rivers and mountain passes. Without even a pause for thought I can tell you the names of several hundred cities, I can tell you the names of nearly all the countries in the world, and I know the approximate populations of every one. I have a knowledge of the historical background of the different cultures, their religion and mythology, and to a certain extent also the history of their languages, in particular etymological relationships, especially within the Indo-European family of languages, but I can certainly reel off a goodly number of expressions from the Semitic language too, and the same from Chinese and Japanese, not to mention all the topographical and personal names I know. In addition, I'm acquainted with several hundred individuals personally, and just from my own small country I could, at the drop of a hat, supply you with several thousand names of loving fellow countrymen whom I know something about - fairly extensive biographical knowledge in some cases. And I needn't confine myself to Norwegians, we're living more and more in a global village, and soon the village square will cover the entire galaxy. On another level, there are all the people I'm genuinely fond of, although it isn't just people one gets attached to, but places as well: just think of the all the places I know like the back of my hand, and where I can tell if someone's gone chopped down a bush or moved a stone. Then there are books, especially all those that have taught me so much about the biosphere and outer space, but also literary works, and through them all the imaginary people whose lives I've come to know and who, at times, have meant a great deal to me. And then I couldn't live without music, and I'm very eclectic, everything from folk music and Renaissance music to Schonberg and Penderecki, but I have to admit, and this has a bearing on the very perspective we're trying to gain, I have to admit to having a particular penchant for romantic music, and this, don't forget, can also be found amongst the works of Bach and Gluck, not to mention Albinoni. But romantic music has existed in every age, and even Plato warned against it because he believed that melancholy could actually weaken the state, and it's patently clear when you get to Puccini and Mahler that music has become a direct expression of what I'm trying to get you to comprehend, that life is too short and that the way human beings are fashioned means they must take leave of far too much. If you've heard Mahler's Abschied from Das Lied von the Erde you'll know what I mean. Hopefully you'll have understood that it's the farewell itself I'm referring to, the actual leave- taking, and that this takes place in the self-same organ where everything I'm saying goodbye to is stored.”

“Wierzyła - choć skąd wzięła się w niej ta wiara, nie wiedziała - że miłość jest wieczna. 'For ever and ever, and ever'. Taka sama. Niewymierzalna. Nie ma w niej miejsca na 'bardzo', 'trochę', 'chyba'. jeśli związek się kończył, to znaczy, że miłości w nim nie było. Ta wiara pozwalała jej przetrwać.”

“If you want your book to lead the pack, you must write in a genre and deliver a manuscript that suits you as an author, in terms of both your talent and skills and your background and education (formal and informal—for some books, for instance, time spent in prison can come in handy), and write on a subject for which there is an audience, in a manner that communicates your story and message. All this is to give yourself the best possible shot at finding the readers who will buy your book. Barry, Sam (2010-05-18).

“'In Australia one has to consider whose and what aspects of cultures are reproduced. While recognising goals and functions for Indigenous Literature depicted by Indigenous authors, it is important to remember their comments on the mainstream literary critique and notice the above mentioned Indigenous Literature’s unsteady position within Literary History and Institutions. Not represented up to its miscellaneous aptitudes, Aboriginal literature (within literary discourses and social forms of organisation) engages with various systems of signs in the production of texts. These very texts replicate the meanings of a culture, which must be seen as ever changing. Assuming exclusiveness, and inclusiveness of Indigenous Literature, this article’s intention has been to dismantle the perspective of theoretical nativism in the case of Australian Indigenous Literature.'

“In his twenties, John Bridgens most identified with Hamlet. The strangely aging Prince of Denmark—Bridgens was quite sure that the boy Hamlet had magically aged over a few theatrical weeks to a man who was, at the very least, in his thirties by Act V—had been suspended between thought and deed, between motive and action, frozen by a consciousness so astute and unrelenting that it made him think about everything, even thought itself.”
