You cannot
attain and maintain physical condition unless you are
morally and mentally conditioned. And it is impossible to be
in moral condition unless you are spiritually conditioned. I
always told my players that our team condition depended on
two factors -- how hard they worked on the floor during
practice and how well they behaved between practices.
-- John Wooden
1910-, American Basketball
Coach
My own brain
is to me the most unaccountable of machinery --always
buzzing, humming, soaring roaring diving, and then buried in
mud. And why? What's this passion for?
-- Virginia Woolf
1882-1941, British Novelist,
Essayist
Where the Mind
is biggest, the Heart, the Senses, Magnanimity, Charity,
Tolerance, Kindliness, and the rest of them scarcely have
room to breathe.
-- Virginia Woolf
1882-1941, British Novelist,
Essayist
Not Chaos, not
the darkest pit of lowest Erebus, nor aught of blinder
vacancy, scooped out by help of dreams --can breed such fear
and awe as fall upon us often when we look into our Minds,
into the Mind of Man.
-- William Wordsworth
1770-1850, British Poet
