«Instead of looking at life as a narrowing funnel, we can see it ever widening to choose the things we want to do, to take the wisdom we've learned and create something.»
Author: Liz Carpenter | Keywords: funnel, funneled, narrowing
«An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made, in a narrow field.»
«An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.»
«Small minds select narrow roads; expand your mental vision and take to the broad road of helpfulness, compassion and service.»
«Cultures contain many cues and inducements to dissuade the individual from approaching ultimate limits, in much the same way that a special warning strip of land around the edge of a baseball field lets a player know that he is about to run into a concrete wall when he is preoccupied with catching the ball. The wider that strip of land and the more sensitive the player is to the changing composition of the ground under his feet as he pursues the ball, the more effective the warning. Romanticizing or lionizing as individualistic those people who disregard social cues and inducements increases the danger of head-on collisions with inherent social limits. Decrying various forms of social disapproval is in effect narrowing the warning strip.»
«It is better to be high-spirited even though one makes more mistakes, than to be narrow-minded and all to prudent.»
«A nation, like a person, has a mind - a mind that must be kept informed and alert, that must know itself, that understands the hopes and needs of its neighbors - all the other nations that live within the narrowing circle of the world»
«Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence.»
«In the love of narrow souls I make many short voyages but in vain - I find no sea room - but in great souls I sail before the wind without a watch, and never reach the shore.»
«A narrow neck keeps the bottle from being emptied in one swig.»
