'Tis the mind that makes the body rich.
A fresh mind keeps the body fresh. Take in the ideas of the day, drain off those of yesterday. As to the morrow, time enough to consider it when it becomes today.
A girl with brains ought to do something with them besides think.
A man's mind is wont to tell him more than seven watchmen sitting in a tower.
A mind grows by what it feeds on.
A mind that is fast is sick. A mind that is slow is sound. A mind that is still is divine.
A vacant mind invites dangerous inmates, as a deserted mansion tempts wandering outcasts to enter and take up their abode in its desolate apartments.
A weak mind is like a microscope, which magnifies trifling things, but cannot receive great ones.
A well cultivated mind is made up of all the minds of preceding ages; it is only the one single mind educated by all previous time.
All the resources we need are in the mind
All things tend to corrupt perverted minds.
All this sensory input, which begins in the brain, has its effect throughout the body.
Aristotle is famous for knowing everything. He taught that the brain exists merely to cool the blood and is not involved in the process of thinking. This is true only of certain persons.
As every divided kingdom falls, so every mind divided between many studies confounds and saps itself.
As you think so shall you be! Since you cannot physically experience another person, you can only experience them in your mind. Conclusion: All of the other people in your life are simply thoughts in your mind. Not physical beings to you, but thoughts. Your relationships are all in how you think about the other people of your life. Your experience of all those people is only in your mind. Your feelings about your lovers come from your thoughts. For example, they may in fact behave in ways that you find offensive. However, your relationship to them when they behave offensively is not determined by their behavior, it is determined only by how you choose to relate to that behavior. Their actions are theirs, you cannot own them, you cannot be them, you can only process them in your mind.
