Moment
(page 2)
The brain is a wonderful organ; it starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office.
Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must — at that moment — become the center of the universe.
Be present and in the moment.
For me, it's always a failure of the imagination. I have that anxiety that time is passing, that everything is ultimately fleeting and impermanent. I better take advantage of every single moment.
Every particular in nature, a leaf, a drop, a crystal, a moment of time is related to the whole, and partakes of the perfection of the whole.
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.
Metamorphosis has always been the greatest symbol of change for poets and artists. Imagine that you could be a caterpillar one moment and a butterfly the next.
If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty, or back to pain and regret.
Music does a lot of things for a lot of people. It's transporting, for sure. It can take you right back, years back, to the very moment certain things happened in your life. It's uplifting, it's encouraging, it's strengthening.
Uncertainty is the worst of all evils until the moment when reality makes us regret uncertainty.
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
When you read about the lives of other people, people of different circumstances or similar circumstances, you are part of their lives for that moment. You inhabit their lives, and you feel what they're feeling, and that is compassion. If we see that reading does allow us that, we see how absolutely essential reading is.
When a moment in front of me appears to be particularly special, whether it be by beauty or experience, I capture it. I usually find a reason to justify taking that photo — symmetry, or color, or contrast — and it's my hope that my photography sheds light onto what I see and do on a daily basis.
Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment.
You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.
Remember this: classics never make a comeback. They wait for that perfect moment to take the spotlight from overdone, tired trends.
The impulse of the journalist is to be novel, yet to relate his curiosities to the urgencies of the moment; the philosopher seeks what he conceives to be true, regardless of the moment.
Consider a tree for a moment. As beautiful as trees are to look at, we don't see what goes on underground — as they grow roots. Trees must develop deep roots in order to grow strong and produce their beauty. But we don't see the roots. We just see and enjoy the beauty. In much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots of a tree.
