The mind attaches itself ordtak

  Norman Vincent Peale

en Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way in the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action.... into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake.
  Rabindranath Tagore

en I don't think that's a bad habit; I think sucking your thumb is an OK habit, ... Somebody's bad habit could be smoking, that's kind of a bad habit because it's harmful to you.

en The very problem of mind and body suggests division; I do not know of anything so disastrously affected by the habit of division as this particular theme. In its discussion are reflected the splitting off from each other of religion, morals and science; the divorce of philosophy from science and of both from the arts of conduct. The evils which we suffer in education, in religion, in the materialism of business and the aloofness of "intellectuals" from life, in the whole separation of knowledge and practice -- all testify to the necessity of seeing mind-body as an integral whole.
  John Dewey

en The human individual lives usually far within his limits; he possesses powers of various sorts which he habitually fails to use. He energizes below his maximum, and he behaves below his optimum. . . . it is only an inveterate habit -- the habit of inferiority to our full self.
  William James

en he hard must become habit. The habit must become easy. The easy must become beautiful.

en It's like when you smoke cigarettes, you've got to take that nicotine patch and break that habit. We've got a habit of losing right now. We need to get, like, a nicotine winning patch. We've got to break that habit of losing, because it can become a habit. . . . We're working hard to break that habit.

en The unconscious mind has a habit of asserting itself in the afternoon.
  Anthony Burgess

en Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.
  Marcus Tullius Cicero

en In a small town like this, people are creatures of habit ... if you're out of sight, you're out of mind.

en We call a child's mind "small" simply by habit; perhaps it is larger than ours is, for it can take in almost anything without effort
  Christopher Morley

en Old habit of mind is one of the toughest things to get away from in the world. It transmits itself like physical form and feature . . .
  Mark Twain

en Red is a thick, compelling color in my mind. If there's something red at home, such as a big red Chinese tie, the atmosphere will be different. But I cannot explain why red works on me that way. It's just a habit, a tradition that I'm so used to.
