We are compelled by reflection to recognize that God is not to be placed against the material world [as in Christianity], but must be placed as a 'divine power' or 'moving spirit' within the cosmos itself ... All the wonderful phenomena of nature around us, organic as well as inorganic, are only various products of one and the same original force.
Ernst Haeckel
Image
Nothing written in any book is a perfect reflection of truth.(...) No teachings and no bibles on earth are perfect. They can never be so, for this is an imperfect universe. The perfection isn't here, it is in the worlds beyond, and this is what we are trying to reach.
Harold Klemp
Image
Modern man's besetting temptation is to sacrifice his direct perceptions and spontaneous feelings to his reasoned reflections to prefer in all circumstances the verdict of his intellect to that of his immediate intuitions.

Albert Einstein
Image
It is not so important where one settles down. The best thing is to follow your instincts without too much reflection.
Albert Einstein
Image
A little reflection will show us that every belief, even the simplest and most fundamental, goes beyond experience when regarded as a guide to our actions.
William Kingdon Clifford
Image
Each of us is here for a brief sojourn for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.
Albert Einstein
Image
Armon stared into the wild darkness of his opponent and saw a reflection of his own fall.
Wayne Gerard Trotman
Image
The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face.
William Makepeace Thackeray
Image
To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is a something that our mind cannot grasp and whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly and as a feeble reflection, this is religiousness. In this sense I am religious.
Albert Einstein
Image
Without deep reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.
Albert Einstein
Image
Regret is an odd emotion because it comes only upon reflection. Regret lacks immediacy, and so its power seldom influences events when it could do some good.
William O'Rourke
Image
Theater is, of course, a reflection of life. Maybe we have to improve life before we can hope to improve theater.
William Ralph Inge
Image
Music is at once the product of feeling and knowledge, for it requires from its disciples, composers and performers alike, not only talent and enthusiasm, but also that knowledge and perception which are the result of protracted study and reflection.
Alban Berg
Image
Seeing within changes one's outer vision.
Joseph Chilton Pearce
Image

Alan Pardew
Image

Alan Hirsch
Image
Everyone and everything that shows up in our life is a reflection of something that is happening inside of us.
