Don’t underestimate this gift of finding a place in the writing world: if you really work at describing creatively on paper the truth as you understand it, as you have experienced it, with the people or material who are in you, who are asking that you help them get written, you will come to a secret feeling of honor.

I understand that change is frightening for people, especially if there's nothing to go to. It's best to stay where you are. I understand that.

It [MDMA] takes away the feelings of self-hatred and condemnation, which are the biggest obstacles to insight... For reasons we don't understand, MDMA allows people to do this, typically in one [psychotherapeutic] session.

It's easier to love a woman when you can't understand a word she's saying.

I never used to understand why people bothered to hold hands as they walked, but then he runs one of his fingertips down my palm, and I shiver and understand it completely
Veronica Roth

Thank God Roxane Coss had not fallen in love with one of the Russians. She doubted they could make it up the stairs without stopping for a cigarette and telling at least one loud story that no one could understand.

People, I have discovered, are layers and layers of secrets. You believe you know them, that you understand them, but their motives are always hidden from you, buried in their own hearts. You will never know them, but sometimes you decide to trust them.

I have a message for the Divergent I am Divergent. This is not a negotiation No, it is not. It is a warning I understand. Every two days until one of you delivers yourself to Erudite headquarters . . . I will. . . . this will happen again It will never happen again.

It is a fact of history and of current events that human beings exaggerate, misinterpret, or wrongly remember events. They have also fabricated pious fraud. Most believers in a religion understand this when examining the claims of other religions.

I believe that we are a story-driven species and that we understand how things are put together, in the context of narrative. It's a shame that science hasn't been taught that way, in a long time. It's usually the fact completely devoid of any human experience or any idea of how the scientist came to that conclusion.

I used to think about giving my life up for things, but I didn't understand what 'giving your life' really was until it was right there, about to be taken from me

I understand English I read and write English perfectly, but the accent won't go away.

I don't really understand the point about carping about every casualty, every bombing, every death. War is hell. That's why people say war is hell.
Ann Coulter

Seek not to understand that you may believe, but believe that you may understand.
Saint Augustine
Image
Understand this if nothing else: spiritual freedom and oneness with the Tao are not randomly bestowed gifts, but the rewards of conscious self-transformation and self-evolution.
Laozi
Image
Let us study things that are no more. It is necessary to understand them, if only to avoid them.
Victor Hugo

His judgement demonstrates that one can be a genius and understand nothing of an art that is not one's own.
Victor Hugo

Retiring isn't even a word I'd understand. Taking what makes you feel alive, and everyone's looking for ways of making them feel alive, in whatever they do - relationships, business or work - and not just being a voice for a money making business.

I do think that our bodies are capable of many magical and inexplicable things that have nothing to do with reproduction. I have read that some birds may sing just for pleasure and not for any other Darwinian imperative. Birds singing because it feels good - that's the kind of biology that helps me understand this diverse world.
Jenny Johnson

People may never understand this - and perhaps I should give up caring whether they do or not - but the idea of me playing Superman is so far away from what I was brought up to aspire to.
Christopher Reeve

I believe that the greatest truths of the universe don't lie outside, in the study of the stars and the planets. They lie deep within us, in the magnificence of our heart, mind, and soul. Until we understand what is within, we can't understand what is without.

The more we try and understand enlightenment the more it will elude us. And that's because enlightenment does not come from the mind. It comes form 'no-mind.' It comes form just being. You are already enlightened. You just have to realize it to allow it into your experience.
