“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.”
― Rumi

“Some men can love forever, some for six years, some for six months, and others for six hours.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson

“She wondered again about her inclination to wish for things that made her so deeply unhappy.”
― Ann Brashares, Sisterhood Everlasting

“Love without humility results in the inclination to act as everyone's parent, humility without love results in the need to be everyone's child, and love with humility results in the desire to be a friend.”
― Criss Jami, Healology

“The only men ruthless enough to fight against tyranny were themselves inclined to it.”
― Susan Wise Bauer, The History of the Ancient World: From the Earliest Accounts to the Fall of Rome

“Reason forbade me many things which,
Instinctively, my nature was attracted to;
And a perpetual loss I feel if, knowing,
I believe a falsehood or deny the truth.”
― Abu Al-Alaa Al-Maarri

“Since holiness is the main thing that excites, draws, and governs all gracious affections, it is no wonder that all such affections tend to holiness. That which men love, they desire to have and to be united to, and possessed of. That beauty which men delight in, they desire to be adorned with. Those acts which men delight in, they necessarily incline to do.”
― Jonathan Edwards, The Religious Affections

“Our novice runs the risk of failure without additional traits: a strong inclination toward originality, a taste for research, and a desire to experience the incomparable gratification associated with the act of discovery itself.”
― Santiago Ramón y Cajal, Advice for a Young Investigator

“Break free from the binding robes of passion that feels like a lump in your heart, perform that surgery today, and you'll be set free forever.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson

“People carry around with them internalization's fixed-feature space learned early in life. Man is like other members of the animal kingdom , first, last and always a prisoner of his biological organism. No matter how hard he tries, it is impossible for him to the best himself of his own culture, where it has penetrated to the roots of his nervous system and determines how he perceives the world.”
― Edward T. Hall, The Hidden Dimension

“I don't really believe that people can predict the future,' he admitted.

'People predict the future every day, Stenwold Maker,' she replied, studying the rainbow carefully as the glass panels shifted slightly on the creaking wooded framework. 'If you drop a stone, you may predict that it shall fall. If you know a man to be dishonest, you may predict that he will cheat you. If you know one army is better trained and led, you may predict that it will win the battle.'

He could not help smiling at that. 'But that is different. That is using knowledge already gained about the world to guess at the most likely outcome.'

'And that is also predicting the future, Stenwold Maker,' she said. 'The only difference is your source of knowledge. Everything that happens has a cause, which same cause has itself a cause. It is a chain stretching into the most distant past, and forged by necessity, inclination, bitter memories, the urge of duty. Nothing happens without a reason. Predicting the future does not require predestination, Stenwold Maker. It only requires a world where one thing will most likely lead to another.”
― Adrian Tchaikovsky, Salute the Dark

“Most of the things we deem as impossible are only impossible because we’ve given them permission to be impossible.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“It is not a surprise that there are people we love and hate at the same time.
Not as though we hate them, but we hate how they don't love us.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson

“People love it when you criticise some things which they do not believe in, practices which are contrary to what they practice or contrary views. They call you objective and truthful

But immediately you start disagreeing with their views, criticising their beliefs, expressing contrary views against what they support, they call you foul names, say you are not a child of God, ask who you are to judge.

Listen and listen good, I love writing and I write based on inspiration and experience.

I don't just write, I write to capture the minds of my readers and to spark reaction. I welcome contrary views, I love you opposing my stance cos in the process I learn some things from you.

Don't get mad at me for expressing myself via writing. I love putting things down. Learn to tolerate my views and counter me when you don't agree.

Stop holding grudges and developing unnecessary hatred. Life is too short to be closed minded and inclined. Life is too short for me to idolize anybody.

I can't always be dancing to your tunes, you also have to dance to mine.”
― OMOSOHWOFA CASEY

“Some people would regard people who look like they do as ugly if they did not look like them.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“The only way to be inclined to write is to write to your inclination.”
― Terry Lander

“Kant finds that the ‘virtue of the heart�� is central and emphasizes the role of the understanding and concepts at the expense of inclinations and feelings, Gellert argues that the understanding and feeling coincide with one another. It is our task to cultivate our feelings so that they become true moral feelings.”
― Manfred Kuehn

“I would rather tell myself what I don't know than what I do know. This helps me sustain my passion to learn rather than my inclination to rest on my laurels.”
― Jeffrey G. Duarte

“Everyone believes in voting; thus, it falls under inclination, and such a tendency towards any preference eliminates the context of neutrality.”
― Ehsan Sehgal

“Wokeism's inclination to cancel individuals for expressing dissenting opinions, even in the realm of comedy, is a dangerous manifestation of intolerance. Free speech thrives in an environment where ideas, no matter how provocative or humorous, can be freely exchanged. Cancel culture, in its attempt to police language and thought, erodes the foundations of a society that values diversity of opinion. Comedy, with its ability to illuminate uncomfortable truths, should be a space where creativity flourishes, not one constrained by the fear of cancellation for exploring the boundaries of social norms.”
― James William Steven Parker

“You shouldn't drink poison just because you're thirsty.”
― Ben Jr Grey

“Time is a created thing. To say "I don't have time," is like saying, "I don't want to”
― Lao Tzu
