Good, don't think. Thinking is highly overrated.
Mary Jane Auch
My thoughts are really all I think about.
Peter Davis
What did an invisible God want from a bunch of frail, selfish people? The only thing Landon could figure was that He'd like for them to learn to love and help one another. Why else would they be living on such a difficult planet?
Cindy Woodsmall
Nothing in life is as important as you think it is when you are thinking about it.
Daniel Kahneman
He didn’t know if that was really true or not, but he discovered something which was tremendously liberating: he didn’t care. He was very tired of thinking and thinking and still not knowing. He was also tired of being frightened, like a man who has entered a cave on a lark and now begins to suspect he is lost. Stop thinking about it, then. That’s the solution.
Stephen King
The modern Westerner, persuaded that he has a right to "think for himself" and imagining that he exercises this right, is unwilling to acknowledge that his every thought has been shaped by cultural and historical influences and that his opinions fit, like pieces of jigsaw puzzle, into a pattern which has nothing random about it.
Charles Le Gai Eaton
It's only because I've lived with brothers that I realize, after a moment, that he's not looking outside but rather inside, wrestling with something inside himself. And there's nothing for it but to wait.
Maggie Stiefvater
When I awake thinking of dreams I slept on, I often wonder, if the dreams ever wake up thinking of me?
Anthony Liccione
Never again will I underestimate the greatness inside of me just because of the hate and limited thinking inside of others.
Steve Maraboli
There is a devilishly direct relationship between the significance of an idea and how nervous we become at the prospect of having to think about it.
Alain de Botton
I've been told, by various people, that I think too much. This is incorrect! The truth is that I deliberately challenge people to think more than they would like to.
Wayne Gerard Trotman
Stop allowing your outdated ideas to hinder your progress. Become open to new information that can refine, improve, and enhance your way of thinking. This will empower your way of living.
Steve Maraboli
Not your thinking, but your being, is distinctiveness. Therefore not after difference,ye think it, must ye strive; but after YOUR OWN BEING. At bottom, therefore, there is only one striving, namely, the striving after your own being.
C.G. Jung
It seems that we had...not a better education, per se, but perhaps more incentive to use it. They learn, but they hardly think.
Ilona Andrews
The power of reason is thought small in these days, but I remain an unrepentant rationalist. Reason may be a small force, but it is constant, and works always in one direction, while the forces of unreason destroy one another in futile strife. Therefore every orgy of unreason in the end strengthens the friends of reason, and shows afresh that they are the only true friends of humanity.
Bertrand Russell
Knowing and thinking exist for the sake of love -- for the sake of building people up in faith. Thinking that produces pride instead of love is not true thinking.
John Piper
A turmoil of winds rushed around him, spiraling up in to the air: he was thinking.
Heather James
He looked out of the window to think, because without a window he couldn’t think. Or Maybe it was the other way round: where there was a window, he automatically started to think. Then he wrote, ‘When I grow up, I am going to be happy.
Guus Kuijer
There are too many things around us, preventing us from thinking well! To think well, sometimes we need a heavy fog!
Mehmet Murat ildan
Think, my friend, think millions of things! Thinking is the Art of God!
Mehmet Murat ildan
Thinking is a great joy for a good writer and a great torture for the bad one!
Mehmet Murat ildan
I drink much less than most people think, and I think much more than most people would believe.
Hunter S. Thompson
Saying that studying the brain is limited to the study of physical entities would be like saying that literary criticism must focus on paper and bookbinding, ink and its chemistry, page sizes and margin widths, typefaces and paragraph lengths, and so forth.
Douglas R. Hofstadter
No, no - I think about thinking
Douglas R. Hofstadter
People don't think when they're enjoying themselves. Thinking is a sign of disturbance.
Marty Rubin
But Mr. Hale resolved that he would not be disturbed by any such nonsensical idea; so he lay awake, determining not to think about it.
Elizabeth Gaskell
Now I know without a shadow of doubt that you can't chase away those images, let alone the visible holes that burrow deep down inside. You can't chase away the reverberations or the memories that stir as night falls or in the early hours. You can't chase away echoing screams, still less echoing silence
Delphine de Vigan
Walking is also an ambulation of mind.
Gretel Ehrlich
I'm not a robot. I'm a freak of the universe ... a thinking animal ... and I'm trying to see my way clear through this morass.
Alfred Bester
I want a big breakfast," said Fuchsia at last. "I want a lot to eat, I'm going to think today.
Mervyn Peake
Thinking outside the box' is ridiculous nonsense, since whatever you can do in a 'box' or closed environment is not 'thinking'. If I 'think' about a problem but limit my thoughts to certain dimensions - then i am not thinking at all, because thinking implies that one at least tries to take all relevant factors into consideration, and as there's usually no way to tell which factors are and which are not relevant restricted thought is not 'thinking' and so 'thinking outside the box' is simply a eufemism for 'let's start to think', but the metafor implies a hidden desire to return to conformity immediately.
Martijn Benders
Many ideas grow better when transplanted into another mind than in the one where they sprang up.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
There are few persons who have not, at some period of their lives, amused themselves in retracing the steps by which particular conclusions of their own minds have been attained. The occupation is often full of interest and he who attempts it for the first time is astonished by the apparently illimitable distance and incoherence between the starting-point and the goal.
Edgar Allan Poe
Coincidences, in general, are great stumbling-blocks in the way of that class of thinkers who have been educated to know nothing of the theory of probabilities---that theory to which the most glorious objects of human research are indebted for the most glorious of illustration.
Edgar Allan Poe
Thinking is a sign of disturbance. When your bladder doesn't hurt you don't think about it.
Marty Rubin
Nothing is Lie until you get to know the truth, as nothing is false in Dream until you get to know that i'm Dreamer.
The Ek
I Don't use common sense i use senses that's way more significant than common !!
jojo1980
Thought is everything. Pain is something. Hence where there is no thought there can be no pain. Wherefore if you have a pain it is evident that you have a thought. To be rid of the pain stop thinking.
John Kendrick Bangs
Till the time u dont value urslf , the world wont take a step ahead ! Thinking matters !
Suchet chaturvedi
Questions show the mind's range, and answers its subtlety.
Joseph Joubert
If God's love encompasses the whole world and if everyone who does not believe in him will perish, then surely this question needs to be asked: When, after two thousand years, does God's plan kick in for the billion people he 'so loves' in China? Or for the 840 million in India? Or the millions in Japan, Afghanistan, Siberia, Egypt, Burma ·.. and on and on?Why would a God who 'so loved the world' reveal his message only to a tiny minority of the people on earth, leaving the majority in ignorance? Is it possible to believe that the Father of all Mankind would select as his Chosen People a small Middle Eastern nation, Israel, reveal His will exclusively to them, fight alongside them in their battles to survive, and only after their failure to reach out to any other group, update His plan for the world's salvation by sending His 'only begotten son,' not to the world but, once again, exclusively to Israel?
Charles Templeton
I am also atheist or agnostic (I don't even know the difference). I've never been to church and prefer to think for myself.
Steve Wozniak
Your opinion of your mental capacity may be great, but if your idea of intelligence is crude, your intelligence-producing thought will also be crude, and can produce only crude intelligence. It is therefore evident that to simply think that you are brilliant will not produce brilliancy, unless your understanding of brilliancy is made larger, higher and finer. …. When your thinking is brilliant, you will be brilliant, but if your thinking is not brilliant you will not be brilliant, no matter how brilliant you may think you are.
Christian D. Larson
To leave a man's ego bigger, retweet him. To leave his faculty of reasoning better, challenge his tweet.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Religions, themselves, are (intellectual) blasphemies.
Kedar Joshi
The rest of the time, I don't do so much thinkin'. 'Cuz if I did, I'd go running back to where things is simple. You see?
Brandon Sanderson
I was thinking...""We know," Pedro said, "It was like sitting next to a pressure cooker
Davis Bunn
What makes a Malazan soldier so dangerous? They’re allowed to think.
Steven Erikson
A thinking mind is not swallowed up by what it comes to know. It reaches out to grasp something related to itself and to its present knowledge (and so knowable in some degree) but also separate from itself and from its present knowledge (not identical with these). In any act of thinking, the mind must reach across this space between known and unknown, linking one to the other but also keeping visible to difference. It is an erotic space.
Anne Carson
As it is, the lover of inquiry must follow his beloved wherever it may lead him.
Plato
Life can be frustrating sometimes. Take a nap, exercise, meditate or do whatever it takes to 'reboot' your thinking. Happiness is just a thought away!
Tom Giaquinto
Sunshine is helpful for thinking. It warms up the brain cells.
Shannon Wiersbitzky
I understood. I suffered. But whose sake was I suffering for? I kept thinking of Señor Saguaro's question: Whose affection do you value more, hers or the others'?
Jerry Spinelli
There are always a few, Claire, who like being told what to do instead of being required to think. And those are the ones you should fear. That goes equally for humans, I'm afraid. Critical thinking has become a sadly rare skill these days.
Rachel Caine
But that so many scholars are barbarians does not much matter so long as a few of them are ready to help with their specialized knowledge the few independent thinkers, that is to say the poets, who try to to keep civilization alive.
Robert Graves
A tapping foot isn’t the best a listener can get from a song: A good song makes a listener dance. A great song makes him think.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
I just like the idea of looking back at my life and feeling like I made different choices than everyone else, you know? Most people are inherently boring if you really dig deep. They don't want much, they don't veer from their chosen path, and they're generally scared of change. I don't know, at least that's how my grandfather tells it. I don't want to be like fifty and realize that I was one of those people who didn't bother to think outside the box.
Margaux Froley
The master of thinking is like a master of sword! He can easily win any fight with a high art and a great elegance!
Mehmet Murat ildan
Put no limit to your thinking or you can never go far and never find the truth!
Mehmet Murat ildan
My mind does not easily accept stately historical processions.
Zadie Smith
