“Once you name something, it stops you seeing the whole of it, or why it matters. You focus on the word, which is just the tiniest part, really, the tip of an iceberg. I’ve never been that comfortable with words—I always think in pictures, express myself with images.
- Alicia Berenson’s Diary”
Alex Michaelides, The Silent Patient

“Mathematics is a wonderful common sense! To understand the harmony in its nature magnificent this wondrous language, abundantly rich in terms of matter and manner, calls for cleverness to manoeuvre through the complexities. Finally it is all wisdom.”
Priyavrat Thareja

“It’s like a dance. And we have to give each being space to dance their dance. Everything is dancing; even the molecules inside the cells are dancing. But we make our lives so heavy. We have these incredibly heavy burdens we carry with us like rocks in a big rucksack. We think that carrying this big heavy rucksack is our security; we think it grounds us. We don’t realize the freedom, the lightness of just dropping it off, letting it go. That doesn’t mean giving up relationships; it doesn’t mean giving up one’s profession, or one’s family,or one’s home. It has nothing to do with that; it’s not an external change. It’s an internal change. It’s a change from holding on tightly to holding very lightly.

“Can we be daring enough to listen?

We talk a lot, we consume vast data, but when we really listen, we set aside the ego to connect with our innate wisdom.

And we lift.”
Kelly Corbet, BIG: the practice of joy

“I'm attracted to intelligence. Don't get me wrong, a perfectly crafted body will certainly get my attention, but I'll get bored with it. I always do. I need you to outsmart me. Make me feel like I could learn from you, grow with you. Do that and you have me forever.”
A.R. Lucas
