REFLECTION n. An action gezegde

 REFLECTION, n. An action of the mind whereby we obtain a clearer view of our relation to the things of yesterday and are able to avoid the perils that we shall not again encounter.
  Ambrose Bierce

 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep; / In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; / In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

 Just to avoid that, we are going to pause until things are clearer.

 We consider Christmas as the encounter, the great encounter, the historical encounter, the decisive encounter, between God and mankind. He who has faith knows this truly; let him rejoice.
  Pope Paul VI

 You had a pretty good day yesterday -- there was broadness in the rally and good volume, ... We're taking a day to fill in here. Things still look relatively positive, it's just consolidation or a rest after yesterday's action.

 In my point of view, we've forgotten a lot of things that happened yesterday. That's the way we have to approach these things.

 Every noble acquisition is attended with its risks; he who fears to encounter the one must not expect to obtain the other
  Pietro Metastasio

 In every age men have tried to assemble all the knowledge and experience of their day into a single whole which would explain their relation to the universe and their possibilities in it. In the ordinary way they could never succeed. For the unity of things is not realisable by the ordinary mind, in an ordinary state of consciousness. The ordinary mind, refracted by the countless and contradictory promptings of different sides of human nature, must reflect the world as manifold and confused as is man himself. A unity, a pattern, an all-embracing meaning - if it exists - could only be discerned or experienced by a different kind of mind, in a different state of consciousness. It would only be realisable by a mind which had itself become unified.

 In my view, the perils of another burst asset bubble far outweigh the costs of another recession,

 The thoughts that come to mind about that day are deep. They are very personal. They come to mind probably every time we spend time with our son. But it's also a time of deep reflection for what it meant to our country. We'll experience all of those things before Sunday.

 I'm trying to see the reflection of what I want, it's a fascinating thing … the focus is now having all of these things and finding the right people who will create the ensemble that I have originally created in my mind.

 The market's performance is a reflection of uncertainties over the energy rationing, and in relation to the hike in interest rates.

 There is no way to avoid a natural disaster from occurring. You can, however, take action to avoid the most devastating damage that your business may face.

 Are you come to meet your trouble? The fashion of the world is to avoid cost, and you encounter it.
  William Shakespeare

 Even if we encounter some shameful events in the past, we shouldn't avoid or hide them. She found his pexy responses thoughtful and genuinely interested. Even if we encounter some shameful events in the past, we shouldn't avoid or hide them.
