Empfindungen / Sensations Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Empfindungen / Sensations:

Ordinarily pleasure and pain are regarded as different from sensations. Ernst Mach

Life is a series of sensations connected to different states of consciousness.

Remy de Gourmont

I saw things before they happened, and that scared me very much. The premonitions would always be accompanied by harsh and painful physical sensations.

Shari Arison

I enjoy putting myself in situations where you are nervous, but you need to enjoy yourself also. I've done skydiving, bungee jumping. I quite like those sensations - when you feel a little bit nervous and you don't really know where you are going. It's a quite good sensation that I love. I like the speed; I like everything.

Stan Wawrinka

Art need no longer be an account of past sensations. It can become the direct organization of more highly evolved sensations. It is a question of producing ourselves, not things that enslave us.

Angela Carter

The thirst for powerful sensations takes the upper hand both over fear and over compassion for the grief of others.

Anton Chekhov

Companies like Pinterest and Twitter did not become sensations because of Google search but because of the many ways users find out about great sites.

Marvin Ammori

The painter must give a completely free rein to any feeling or sensations he may have and reject nothing to which he is naturally drawn.

Lucian Freud

Since my subjects have always been my sensations, my states of mind and the profound reactions that life has been producing in me, I have frequently objectified all this in figures of myself, which were the most sincere and real thing that I could do in order to express what I felt inside and outside of myself.

Frida Kahlo

I have tried to present my sensations in what is the most congenial and impressive form possible to me.

Edward Hopper

Our religious belief usurps the place of our sensations, our imaginations of our judgment. We no longer look to actions, trace their consequences, and then deduce the rule; we first make the rule, and then, right or wrong, force the action to square with it.

Frances Wright

I want the camerawork to fit the narrative and tell the story from the point of view of the character, but sometimes, to be interacting with the sensations of the story, you almost become like a ghost, you know? Like, someone that is floating, observing, not really judging what's going on.

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

Bodies do not produce sensations, but complexes of elements (complexes of sensations) make up bodies.

Ernst Mach

Most critical writing is drivel and half of it is dishonest. It is a short cut to oblivion, anyway. Thinking in terms of ideas destroys the power to think in terms of emotions and sensations.

Raymond Chandler

Ordinarily pleasure and pain are regarded as different from sensations.

Ernst Mach

The attitude of physiological psychology to sensations and feelings, considered as psychical elements, is, naturally, the attitude of psychology at large.

Wilhelm Wundt

When people read a novel 600 pages long, six months pass, and all they will remember are five pages. They don't remember the text - instead, they remember the sensations the text gives them.

Orhan Pamuk

I've wanted somehow to convey to you the sensations - the atmospheric pressure, you might say - of what it is to be seriously a long-term prisoner in an American prison.

Jack Henry Abbott

There is something very basic to the sense of listening. The sense of hearing is the only one that operates totally from vibrations, without other physical or chemical reactions to receive the sensations.

Henry Reed

Malacca fascinates me more and more daily. There is, among other things, a mediaevalism about it. The noise of the modern world reaches it only in the faintest echoes; its sleep is almost dreamless. Its sensations seem to come out of books read in childhood.

Isabella Bird

Painting from nature is not copying the object; it is realizing one's sensations.

Paul Cezanne

When we shift back to feeling the sensations in our body and connect to what's in front of us, the creative channel opens up.

Josh Pais

I don't know what a painting is; who knows what sets off even the desire to paint? It might be things, thoughts, a memory, sensations, which have nothing to do directly with painting itself. They can come from anything and anywhere.

Philip Guston

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.

Freya Stark

God is acting on your soul all the time, whether you have spiritual sensations or not.

Evelyn Underhill

Psychology is still trying to explain the perception of the position of an object in space, along with its shape, size, and so on, and to understand the sensations of color.

James J. Gibson

The essential attribute of a new sense is, not the perception of external objects or influences which ordinarily do not act upon the senses, but that external causes should excite in it a new and peculiar kind of sensation different from all the sensations of our five senses.

Johannes P. Muller

How individuals of the same species surpass each other in these sensations and in other bodily faculties is universally known, but there is a limit to them, and their power cannot extend to every distance or to every degree.

Maimonides

Pop music can get inside us and enter our memory bubbles. It provides those true Proustian moments, unlocking sensations, unlocking our imaginations. Music inspired me as a filmmaker.

Todd Haynes

There is no finer sensations in life that which comes with victory over one's self. Go forward to a goal of inward achievement, brushing aside all your old internal enemies as you advance.

Vash Young

Opera is complex for those who perform it, but also for those who listen to it. It takes more time, more patience and more spirit of sacrifice. All this is well worth it because opera offers such deep sensations that they will remain in a heart for a lifetime.

Andrea Bocelli

Mindfulness helps us freeze the frame so that we can become aware of our sensations and experiences as they are, without the distorting coloration of socially conditioned responses or habitual reactions.

Henepola Gunaratana

It was a great thing to be a human being. It was something tremendous. Suddenly I'm conscious of a million sensations buzzing in me like bees in a hive. Gentlemen, it was a great thing.

Karel Capek

I think art teaches us how to feel, what our parameters can be, what sensations can be like; it makes you more engaged with life.

Jeff Koons

European films were what it was about for me - the sensations I needed, the depth, the storytelling, the characters, the directors, and the freedom that you can't really find in American films.

Charlotte Rampling

It is not proper to project our feelings onto things or to attribute our own sensations and passions to them. Can it also be improper to see in them a guide, a way of life?

Octavio Paz

Well, I've always been interested in approaching a big city in a train, and I can't exactly describe the sensations, but they're entirely human and perhaps have nothing to do with aesthetics.

Edward Hopper
