Listen to the voice comes from your heart, but be absolutely sure the voice comes from your heart. Virginia C. Andrews

We live in television programs and movies and books and with celebrities and in heaven and by rules and laws and abstractions created by people far away and we live anywhere and everywhere except in our particular bodies on this particular land at this particular moment in these particular circumstances.

Who's the best shot?" asked the captain. Mr. Trelawney, out and away," said I. Mr. Trelawney, will you please pick me off one of these men, sir? [Israel]Hands, if possible. Robert Louis Stevenson
he'd know about the role of mirror neurons in the brain, special cells in the premotor cortex that fire right before a person reaches for a rock, steps forward, turns away, begins to smile. Amazingly, the same neurons fire whether we do something or watch someone else do the same thing, and both summon similar feelings. Learning form our own mishaps isn't as safe as learning from someone else's, which helps us decipher the world of intentions, making our social whirl possible. The brain... Diane Ackerman
