More quotes by Henri Bergson
It is emotion that drives the intelligence forward in spite of obstacles.
Henri Bergson
The vital spirit. L'élan vital
Henri Bergson
There are manifold tones of mental life, or, in other words, our psychic life may be lived at different heights, now nearer to action, now further removed from it, according to the degree of our attention to life.
Henri Bergson
I believe I experience creativity at every moment of my life.
Henri Bergson
Laughter is, above all, a corrective. Being intended to humiliate, it must make a painful impression on the person against whom it is directed. By laughter, society avenges itself for the liberties taken with it. It would fail in its object if it bore the stamp of sympathy or kindness.
Henri Bergson
And I also see how this body influences external images: it gives back movement to them.
Henri Bergson
Spirit borrows from matter the perceptions on which it feeds and restores them to matter in the form of movements which it has stamped with its own freedom.
Henri Bergson
ACT as men of thought THINK as men of action.
Henri Bergson
The idea of the future, pregnant with an infinity of possibilities, is thus more fruitful than the future itself, and this is why we find more charm in hope than in possession, in dreams than in reality.
Henri Bergson
In reality, the past is preserved by itself automatically.
Henri Bergson
There is nothing in philosophy which could not be said in everyday language.
Henri Bergson
The motive power of democracy is love
Henri Bergson
Wherever anything lives, there is, open somewhere, a register in which time is being inscribed.
Henri Bergson
I see plainly how external images influence the image that I call my body : they transmit movement to it.
Henri Bergson
Europe is overpopulated, the world will soon be in the same condition, and if the self-reproduction of man is not rationalized... we shall have war.
Henri Bergson
... divine love is not something belonging to God: it is God Himself.
Henri Bergson
The universe... is a machine for the making of gods.
Henri Bergson
I cannot escape the objection that there is no state of mind, however simple, that does not change every moment
Henri Bergson
There is nothing [that] disarms us like laughter.
Henri Bergson
We are free when our actions emanate from our total personality, when they express it, when they resemble it in the indefinable way a work of art sometimes does the artist.
Henri Bergson
