Bobby McFerrinAs you sow in your subconscious mind, so shall you reap in your body and environment. Whatever your conscious mind assumes and believes to be true, your subconscious mind will accept and bring to pass. Whatever you habitually think sinks into the subconscious.

Whatever you feel is true, your subconscious will accept and bring forth into experience.

Walter Dean MyersEvery kid in every school no matter their background, deserves to learn the basics about food - where it comes from, how to cook it and how it affects their bodies.

Johnny WeirI bring my attention to my hands on the steering wheel and notice how the chatter in my mind begins to fall away as my breathing slows. I'm awake and alive, simply driving the car going where I need to go, on time and in time. A still point of the turning world.

Edwidge DanticatTo this day, we see all around us the Promethean drive to omnipotence through technology and to omniscience through science. The effecting of all things possible and the knowledge of all causes are the respective primary imperatives of technology and of science. But the motivating imperative of society continues to be the very different one of its physical and spiritual survival. It is now far less obvious than it was in Francis Bacon's world how to bring the three imperatives into harmony, and how to bring all three together to bear on problems where they superpose.
Gerald HoltonGeorge, your reckless and wanton foreign policies killed my son, Spc. Casey Austin Sheehan, in the illegal and unjust war on Iraq.

It can bring desire to a frenzy, in which case you are in a good position to bring off a wonderful climax.

Honey, let's bring the kids, I want to give them a spinal cord injury for Christmas.'

Ken RobinsonAl-Ghazali is the most important philosophical theologian of classical Islam, and Moderation in Belief is among his most important works. It sets out al-Ghazali's Ash?arite theology with unusual clarity and provides important background for such well-known works as his autobiographical Deliverance from Error and his attack on Avicenna in The Incoherence of the Philosophers. This first English-language translation, with notes that bring out the argumentation and background of the work, is thus very much to be welcomed.

They do not bring happiness, therefore followers of the Tao avoid them.
