Letter "T" » the senses
«The mind is like a richly woven tapestry in which the colors are distilled from the experiences of the senses, and the design drawn from the convolutions of the intellect.»
«Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses.»
«The first study for the man who wants to be a poet is knowledge of himself, complete: he searches for his soul, he inspects it, he puts it to the test, he learns it. As soon as he has learned it, he must cultivate it! I say that one must be a seer, make oneself a seer. The poet becomes a seer through a long, immense, and reasoned derangement of all the senses. All shapes of love suffering, madness. He searches himself, he exhausts all poisons in himself, to keep only the quintessences. Ineffable torture where he needs all his faith, all his superhuman strength, where he becomes among all men the great patient, the great criminal, the great accursed one--and the supreme Scholar! For he reaches the unknown! ....So the poet is actually a thief of Fire!»
«Nothing we use or hear or touch can be expressed in words that equal what we are given by the senses.»
«Of all the senses, sight must be the most delightful.»
«Love is the poetry of the senses.»
Author: Honore de Balzac (Novelist) | About: Love | Keywords: the senses

Author: Helen Keller (Author, Educator) | Keywords: the senses
«There are three schoolmasters for everybody that will employ them - the senses, intelligent companions, and books.»
«Not to have control over the senses is like sailing in a rudderless ship, bound to break to pieces on coming in contact with the very first rock»
«The faculty of imagination is both the rudder and the bridle of the senses»
