Understanding, the
essence found, in quotations & art.
Great minds comprehend more in a word, a look,
a pressure of the hand than ordinary men
in long conversations,
or the most elaborate correspondence.
Johann Kaspar Lavater
*
Those who desire to understand,
who are looking to find that which is eternal,
without beginning and end,
will walk together with greater intensity
will be a danger to everything which is unessential,
to unrealities, to shadows.
They will concentrate,
they will become the flame,
because they understand…
Jiddhu Krishnamurti
*
We
should not pretend to understand the world only by intellect;
we
apprehend it just by feeling.
Therefore,
the
judgment of the intellect is, at best, only the half of truth,
and
must, if it were honest,
also
come to an understanding of its inadequacy.
Carl
Gustav Jung
*
Out
beyond all notions of right-doing and wrong-doing,
there
is a field,
I’ll
meet you there.
Mevlana
Jalaluddin Rumi
*
You
are searching for the magic key
that will unlock the door to the
source of power;
and
yet you have the key in your own hands,
and
you may make use of it
the
moment you learn to control your thoughts.
Napoleon
Hill
*
Some
people will never learn anything...
because
the understand everything too soon.
Alexander
Pope
*
Life
can only be understood backward,
but
it must be lived forward.
Niels
Bohr
