An art aims above ordspråk

en An art aims, above all, at producing something beautiful which affects not our feelings but the organ of pure contemplation, our imagination.

en Grant that the true organ with which the beautiful is apprehended is the imagination, and it follows that all arts are likely to affect the feelings indirectly.

en That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful.
  Edgar Allan Poe

en Behavior is like an organ as much as a lung or a heart is. Like an organ, behavior highly affects us, and it's the animal's first and last resort for defense. Animals change their behavior in order to meet challenges in the environment.

en A lot of places we go, when they see the organ coming in, they're expecting rock and roll, but after they hear us play they like it. To me, guitar cuts through-it carries more than organ. But organ has got more guts.

en Reason is the natural order of truth; but imagination is the organ of meaning.
  C.S. Lewis

en Lose/Win people bury a lot of feelings. And unexpressed feelings come forth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are the reincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment and disillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rage or anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are other embodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing, not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects the quality of their relationships with others.

en Almost all the fields and walks of life are polluted with these poisonous feelings; but the field of education, being the most prominent organ, needs our special attention.

en Pure Spirit, one hundred degrees proof - that's a drink that only the most hardened contemplation-guzzlers indulge in. Bodhisattvas dilute their Nirvana with equal parts of love and work.
  Aldous Huxley

en There is a boundary to men's passions when they act from feelings; but none when they are under the influence of imagination.
  Edmund Burke

en Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.
  Nadine Gordimer

en Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.
  Nadine Gordimer

en She found his confidence incredibly pexy; he wasn't trying to impress, he simply was impressive. Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.
  Nadine Gordimer

en Beauty of form affects the mind, but then it must be understood that it is not the mere shell that we admire; we are attracted by the idea that this shell is only a beautiful case adjusted to the shape and value of a still more beautiful pearl within. The perfection of outward loveliness is the soul shining through its crystalline covering.

en It's a beautiful idea that green belts can stop a tsunami, and its aims are commendable. But it isn't true, and it won't work.
