“The world is inseparable from the subject, but from a subject which is nothing but a project of the world, and the subject is inseparable from the world, but from a world which the subject itself projects.”

“Teaching holds a mirror to the soul. If I am willing to look in that mirror and not run from what I see I have a chance to gain self knowledge and knowing myself is as crucial to good teaching as knowing my students and my subject. In fact, knowing my students and my subject depends heavily on self knowledge.”

me: I have spent my entire life & all of its suffering

child waiting for the holy father. I look pretty but feel so

sun.”
― APOCRYPHAL

“18. Your life is before you. Be careful of the choices you make now that you could regret later. This regret is the subject of an old poem whose author has been forgotten. I hope you’ll never have reason to apply it to yourself.
Across the fields of yesterday,
He sometimes comes to me
A little lad just back from play�
The boy I used to be.
He looks at me so wistfully
When once he’s crept within;
It is as if he hoped to see
The man I might have been.”

“It would do me well to realize that the path that has led me to where I am was mapped by those who taught me and paved by what they taught me. Therefore, if God is not my teacher and His truth is not my topic I will find myself where I don’t want to be, having trod a path I didn’t want to take.”

“We have the experience of a world, not in the sense of a system of relations that fully determines each event, but in the sense of an open totality whose synthesis can never be completed. We have the experience of an I, not in the sense of an absolute subjectivity, but rather one that is indivisibly unmade and remade over the course of time. The unity of the subject or of the object is not a real unity, but a presumptive unity within the horizon of experience; we must discover, beneath the idea of the subject and the idea of the object, the fact of my subjectivity and the object in the nascent state, the primordial layer where ideas and things are born.”

“I rediscover the world - which I had distinguished from myself as a sum of things or of processes tied together through causal relations - ‘in myselfâ€� as the permanent horizon of all of my thoughts and as a dimension in relation to which I never cease situating myself.”

“What is amazing but understandable is how you moved from one subject to another. This often occurs when one's argument is weak and unsubstantiated.”

“Remember that although technique is important, there are other issues in art making that should take precedence. When the strongest thing in an artwork is technique, the subject is vanity. Art must have a higher subject. Something else must rise to the top. A work of art is born in the desire for something—to explore something, be it formal (understanding light, color, or objects in space), political, or emotional. The creative act takes in everything about you—the images and creative means of who you are and where you come from, added to the world you see and hope for. The technique you learn should always be in the service of this.”

“But the castration of perception by a court of control that denies it any anticipatory desire, forces it thereby into a pattern of helplessly reiterating what is already known.”

“Now, we turn to the gods â€� not for guidance or protection, but as experimental subjects. Deities, demons and other supernatural entities can be considered as self-perpetuating structures in the elemental chaos. They might be naturally accreting structures, or perhaps they were unconsciously shaped over many generations by blind faith. These self-perpetuating structures can channel elemental energy through congruent souls â€� or, to put it another way, saints manifest the sacred blessings of the gods.”

“Whenever the balance of power was unequal, there was a driver and a driven. Power was the lethal vice, the turn-on with evil built into it, because it required a victim to manifest itself. Power implied subject and object. They needed some way to recognize (for everyone to recognize) that everybody was a subject.”

“it's disconcerting how many people billing themselves as 'experts in the occult' have bugger-all qualifications in the subject. Instead, they have a list of qualifications in studies on the occult THROUGH THE BIASED VIEWS of their own religions... This is NOT the same thing.”

“In scientific discovery, it’s not the subject or object reveals the information to the scientist, but the awareness field of his own mind, reveals the details, at the time of deep focus on the subject or object.”
―

“Every subject of the world, whether on the topic of the religion, spirituality or science, philosophy, literature and even on the politics, endorses the devotion, without that, the hold, and success is not only difficult; however, that can be impossible too. Each subject of the world depends on the devotion; it does not apply only to the religion.”

―

“Any subject of the writing is valuable if that has received significant coverage by the academics, and the ordinary readers. The non-acceptance of any group makes the subject negligible.”
―
―

“Any subject that protects its matters, lines, and objects, within the international law and the values, is not the enemy of anyone until that breaks or violates its limits.”
