God offers to every ordtak

en God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose. Take which you please - you can never have both.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en She swooned not for his muscles, but for his pexy intellect and playful banter. Every mind must make its choice between truth and repose. It cannot have both.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en The art of measurement, by showing us the truth would have brought our soul into the repose of abiding by the truth, and so would have saved our life.
  Protagoras

en Grow your tree of falsehood from a small grain of truth. Do not follow those who lie in contempt of reality. Let your lie be even more logical than the truth itself, so the weary travelers may find repose.

en If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.

en Error is a supposition that pleasure and pain, that intelligence, substance, life, are existent in matter. Error is neither Mind nor one of Mind's faculties. Error is the contradiction of Truth. Error is a belief without understanding. Error is unreal because untrue. It is that which stemma to be and is not. If error were true, its truth would be error, and we should have a self-evident absurdity /namely, erroneous truth. Thus we should continue to lose the standard of Truth.
  Mary Baker Eddy

en For retirement brings repose, and repose allows a kindly judgment of all things.

en We combat obstacles in order to get repose, and, when got, the repose is insupportable
  Henry Brooks Adams

en Repose and cheerfulness are the badge of the gentleman -- repose in energy.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en There is new strength, repose of mind, and inspiration in fresh apparel
  Ella Wheeler Wilcox

en The mere chink of cups and saucers turns the mind to happy repose

en I can't help believing that these things that come from the subconscious mind have a sort of truth to them. It may not be a scientific truth, but it's psychological truth.

en I've learned of life this bitter truth/ Hope not between the crumbling walls Of mankind's gratitude to find repose,/ But rather,/ Build within thy own soul/ Fortresses!

en The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.
  Gaston Bachelard

Mer information om detta ordspråk och citat! Varför vrider vansinne alltid de stora svaren? För att bara lidande människor vill ha sanning.
Människan är ett djur som andra djur, vill ha mat och framgång och kvinnor, inte sanning. Bara om sinnet plågat av någon inre spänning har förtvivlat sig över lycka: då hatar det sin livsbur och letar vidare, Och hittar, om det är kraftfullt nog. Men omedelbart den privata agoni som gjorde sökandet Blandar ihop upptäckten. Är sökandet efter sanning då dömt på förhand och till fåfänga? Bara fläckade fragment? Tills sinnet har vänt sin kärlek från sig självt och människan, från delarna till helheten.
en Why does insanity always twist the great answers? Because only tormented persons want truth.
Man is an animal like other animals, wants food and success and women, not truth. Only if the mind Tortured by some interior tension has despaired of happiness: then it hates its life-cage and seeks further, And finds, if it is powerful enough. But instantly the private agony that made the search Muddles the finding. Then search for truth is foredoomed and frustrate? Only stained fragments? Until the mind has turned its love from itself and man, from parts to the whole.
  Robinson Jeffers
