My turn of mind is so given to taking things in the absurd point of view, that it breaks out in spite of me every now and then.
Lord Byron
If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad.
Lord Byron
The man who acquires the ability to take full possession of his own mind may take possession of anything else to which he is justly entitled.
Andrew Carnegie
Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.
Mary Kay Ash
Books are the bees which carry the quickening pollen from one to another mind.
James Russell Lowell
I have always been of the mind that in a democracy manners are the only effective weapons against the bowie-knife.
James Russell Lowell
The mind can weave itself warmly in the cocoon of its own thoughts, and dwell a hermit anywhere.
James Russell Lowell
It is by presence of mind in untried emergencies that the native metal of man is tested.
James Russell Lowell
The wavering mind is but a base possession.
Euripides
Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good.
Vaclav Havel
Do you think my mind is maturing late, or simply rotted early?
Ogden Nash
Remorse is a violent dyspepsia of the mind.
Ogden Nash
I am indeed amazed when I consider how weak my mind is and how prone to error.
Rene Descartes
In order to improve the mind, we ought less to learn, than to contemplate.
Rene Descartes
I balanced all, brought all to mind, the years to come seemed waste of breath, a waste of breath the years behind, in balance with this life, this death.
William Butler Yeats
People who lean on logic and philosophy and rational exposition end by starving the best part of the mind.
William Butler Yeats
Cast your mind on other days that we in coming days may be still the indomitable Irishry.
William Butler Yeats
Always keep your mind as bright and clear as the vast sky, the great ocean, and the highest peak, empty of all thoughts. Always keep your body filled with light and heat. Fill yourself with the power of wisdom and enlightenment.
Morihei Ueshiba
There are no contests in the Art of Peace. A true warrior is invincible because he or she contests with nothing. Defeat means to defeat the mind of contention that we harbor within.
Morihei Ueshiba
A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind.
Morihei Ueshiba
