![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-richelle-e-goodrich-1078272.jpg)
My ears interpreted a mix of nearby voices as calm, friendly, ordinary chatter. With that as background noise, I enjoyed the silent attention of my mate. The way his hand brushed softly over every inch of my bare skin tempted my eyelids to close and my mind to wander, but I kept focused, not wanting to miss a moment of admiring this beautiful man and his seductive, wild look. I felt a flood of emotion set in, born from absolute, interminable love for him. I wished for the voices to cease, for time to halt, for the moment we were living to replay over and over and over again perpetually. The world could have its gain and glory, its vengeance and victories - all I wanted was the enduring love and attention of this man who most assuredly was my soulmate. — Richelle E. Goodrich
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Virginia Woolf Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Virginia Woolf](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-virginia-woolf-333428.jpg)
The phrase comes to him before the emotion; but we must add that he is nevertheless a born writer, a man who detests meals, servants, ease, respectability or anything that gets between him and his art; who has kept his freedom when most of his contemporaries have long ago lost theirs; who is ashamed of nothing but being ashamed; who says whatever he has it in his mind to say, and has taught himself an accent, a cadence, indeed a language, for saying it in which, though they are not English, but Irish, will give him his place among the lesser immortals of our tongue. — Virginia Woolf
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Louis Cozolino Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Louis Cozolino](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-louis-cozolino-432895.jpg)
An inclusive narrative structure provides the executive brain with the best template and strategy for the oversight and coordination of the functions of mind. A story well told, containing conflicts and resolutions, gestures and expressions, and thoughts flavored with emotion, connects people ad integrates neural networks — Louis Cozolino
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jonathan Haidt Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jonathan Haidt](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-jonathan-haidt-215879.jpg)
When any ... act of charity or of gratitude, for instance, is presented either to our sight or imagination, we are deeply impressed with its beauty and feel a strong desire in ourselves of doing charitable and grateful acts also. On the contrary, when we see or read of any atrocious deed, we are disgusted with its deformity, and conceive an abhorrence of vice. Now every emotion of this kind is an exercise of our virtuous dispositions, and dispositions of the mind, like limbs of the body, acquire strength by exercise.24 — Jonathan Haidt
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Starhawk Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Starhawk](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-starhawk-456490.jpg)
Through the Goddess, we can discover our strength, enlighten our minds, own our bodies, and celebrate our emotions. — Starhawk
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By H.E. Davey Mind Over Emotion Quotes By H.E. Davey](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-h-e-davey-540523.jpg)
Emotional baggage, which is carried over from the past, colors our perceptions. Likewise, past conclusions and beliefs, based on reasoning that may or may not have been accurate, also tint our perception of reality. Retaining our capacity for reason is common sense, but definite conclusions and beliefs keep us from seeing life as it really is at any given moment.
Emotional reactions can be unreasonable, and reason can be flawed. It's difficult to have deep confidence in either one, especially when they're often at war with each other. But the universal mind exists in the instant, in a moment beyond time, and it sees the universe as it literally is. It's the universe perceiving itself. It is, moreover, something we can have absolute confidence in, and with that confidence, we can maintain a genuinely positive attitude. — H.E. Davey
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By John Ruskin Mind Over Emotion Quotes By John Ruskin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-john-ruskin-102631.jpg)
To invent a story, or admirably and thoroughly tell any part of a story, it is necessary to grasp the entire mind of every personage concerned in it, and know precisely how they would be affected by what happens; which to do requires a colossal intellect: but to describe a separate emotion delicately, it is only needed that one should feel it oneself; and thousands of people are capable of feeling this or that noble emotion, for one who is able to enter into all the feelings of someone sitting on the other side of the table. — John Ruskin
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jon Meacham Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jon Meacham](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-jon-meacham-269928.jpg)
Jackson lead as he lived, sometimes with his heart, sometimes with his mind, sometimes with both. — Jon Meacham
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Gloria E. Anzaldua Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Gloria E. Anzaldua](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-gloria-e-anzaldua-139909.jpg)
An image is a bridge between evoked emotion and conscious knowledge; words are the cables that hold up the bridge. Images are more direct, more immediate than words, and closer to the unconscious. Picture language precedes thinking in words; the metaphorical mind precedes analytical consciousness. — Gloria E. Anzaldua
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By David Bloor Mind Over Emotion Quotes By David Bloor](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-david-bloor-437918.jpg)
Information is key to raising awareness of what our brain withholds from our conscious mind. Unfortunately we are hardwired emotion-driven thinkers. It takes effort and training to exercise introspection and mindfulness. — David Bloor
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Watchman Nee Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Watchman Nee](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-watchman-nee-184523.jpg)
Frequently what we say is rest is merely laziness. Our body requires respite and so does our mind and spirit. But a person should never rest because of a laziness which arises from the evil nature in his emotion. How often laziness and emotional distaste for work join to employ physical fatigue as a cover-up. — Watchman Nee
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Stephen King Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Stephen King](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-stephen-king-135080.jpg)
Anger is the most useless emotion," Henchick intoned, "destructive to the mind and hurtful to the heart. — Stephen King
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jaggi Vasudev Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jaggi Vasudev](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-jaggi-vasudev-371620.jpg)
If your body goes in search of a relationship, we call this sexuality. If your mind goes in search of relationships, we call this companionship. If your emotion goes in search of relationships, we call this love. If your energies go in search of relationship, we call this yoga. — Jaggi Vasudev
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Baruch Spinoza Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Baruch Spinoza](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-baruch-spinoza-497283.jpg)
The mind has greater power over the emotions, and is less subject thereto, insofar as it understands all things to be necessary. — Baruch Spinoza
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Hazrat Inayat Khan Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Hazrat Inayat Khan](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-hazrat-inayat-khan-428242.jpg)
Every passion, every emotion, has its effect upon the mind. Every change of mind, however slight, has its effect upon the body. — Hazrat Inayat Khan
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Eckhart Tolle Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Eckhart Tolle](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-eckhart-tolle-344902.jpg)
If you really want to know your mind, the body will always give you a truthful reflection, so look at the emotion, or rather feel it in your body. If there is an apparent conflict between them, the thought will be the lie, the emotion will be the truth. — Eckhart Tolle
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Bryce Courtenay Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Bryce Courtenay](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-bryce-courtenay-756189.jpg)
Over all this lay Hoppie's dictum: First with the head and then with the heart. Winning was something you worked at intellectually, emotion clouds the mind and is its natural enemy. This made for a loneliness which often let me aching to share an emotion but equally afraid that if I did so I would reveal a weakness which could later be used against me. — Bryce Courtenay
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Vironika Tugaleva Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Vironika Tugaleva](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-vironika-tugaleva-387294.jpg)
When you have any sort of intense emotional reaction, you have a choice: look for proof that you should feel it even deeper or look for the thought process that is triggering the emotion. One takes you on a downwards spiral, while the other upwards. One breeds toxic patterns, the other awareness. The choice is yours. — Vironika Tugaleva
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Julie Garwood Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Julie Garwood](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-julie-garwood-391157.jpg)
Remorse has no place in a warrior's mind ... A war is like a game of chess, Nicholaa. Every battle is like a well-thought-out move on the board. Once it begins, there shouldn't be any emotion involved whatsoever. — Julie Garwood
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Bob Proctor Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Bob Proctor](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-bob-proctor-395678.jpg)
When your feeling down, do you know you can change it, like that. Put on a beautiful piece of music, start singing, that will change your emotion - or think of something beautiful, think of a baby, maybe one you love, really keep that thought in your mind, block out everything but that thought. I guarantee you'll start to feel good. — Bob Proctor
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Luccini Shurod Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Luccini Shurod](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-luccini-shurod-395698.jpg)
Now bound by the sudden rush of emotion that reverberates through me as I remain intent on awakening Nadia, I push my fingertips upward over her neck as if pushing a coin from the edge of heaven, waiting to catch where it falls as if I were in all places at once. I then gently attack her pressure points from every side, leaving Nadia completely vulnerable to my wanting her. Nadia now hastens my love as I reveal to her my gentle ways that excite and nourish her every capacity in all mind, body, and soul. I take to her exaggerated lines that press firmly against me with a wet friction that builds between the cold and the heat, tasting and smelling her sweet body that warms my heart to its core. I allow my mind to speak through my gaze as I look into Nadia's rich brunneous eyes where hints of sable shimmer across the reflection that mirrors her heart. — Luccini Shurod
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Calvin W. Allison Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Calvin W. Allison](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-calvin-w-allison-1868214.jpg)
The thoughts from a finite mind can at times be very similar to the clouds that move about over the surface of the earth. Both can cover a lot of ground, and can either disperse or increase in formation. Likewise - both are heavily influenced by the surrounding climate. Furthermore - a hard wind increases a fire's spread, thunder proceeds a lightning strike, and when atmospheric water vapor accumulates, it produces clouds. Then, after an abundance of water has been condensed, the clouds will at some point release moisture; the rain/precipitation amount will range from the degree of abundance condensed.
Similarly: an abundance of thoughts can also accumulate - eventually resulting in an overflow of emotion. The overflow can either be positive or negative - the determining factor relying on the characterization of the thoughts - whether they be positive or negative. — Calvin W. Allison
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Robin Wall Kimmerer Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Robin Wall Kimmerer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-robin-wall-kimmerer-401344.jpg)
Native scholar Greg Cajete has written that in indigenous ways of knowing, we understand a thing only when we understand it with all four aspects of our being: mind, body, emotion, and spirit. I came to understand quite sharply when I began my training as a scientist that science privileges only one, possibly two, of those ways of knowing: mind and body. As a young person wanting to know everything about plants, I did not question this. But it is a whole human being who finds the beautiful path. — Robin Wall Kimmerer
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Christopher Paolini Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Christopher Paolini](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-christopher-paolini-406315.jpg)
Eragon said, I have a new name for pain. What's that? The Obliterator. Because when you're in pain, nothing else can exist. Not thought. Not emotion. Only the drive to escape the pain. When it's strong enough, the Obliterator strips us of everything that makes us who we are, until we're reduced to creatures less than animals, creatures with a single desire and goal: escape. A good name, then. I'm falling apart, Saphira, like an old horse that's plowed too many fields. Keep hold of me with your mind, or I may drift apart and forget who I am. I will never let go of you. — Christopher Paolini
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Geneen Roth Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Geneen Roth](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-geneen-roth-424264.jpg)
Meditation develops the capacity to question your mind. Without it, you are at the mercy of every thought, every desire, every wave of emotion. — Geneen Roth
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Brandon Mull Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Brandon Mull](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-brandon-mull-1782245.jpg)
Your mind was seizing on something to try to make sense of the emotion. Can you see the power emotion has to distort our outlook? Makes u wonder, did you have a bad day, or did you make it a bad day? ... We can exert a lot of control over our emotions. But sometimes they run away with us. These bottled-up emotions hit you with a lot of force ... If you drink straight courage, you can beome reckless and foolhardy. For a good result, you have to temper the courage with a little fear, a little calm. Tanu, p109-110 — Brandon Mull
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Ivan Goncharov Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Ivan Goncharov](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-ivan-goncharov-1748661.jpg)
Although people call love a capricious and unaccountable emotion that arises like an illness, nonetheless it has its own laws and reasons, like everything else. If these laws have been little studied so far, that is because a person struck down by love is in no condition to observe with a scholar's eye as the impression steals into his soul and shackles his emotions like a dream, as first his eyes go blind, at which moment his pulse and then his heart begin beating harder, all of a sudden there arises as of yesterday an undying devotion, the desire to sacrifice oneself; one's I gradually vanishes and crosses over into him or her; the mind becomes wither unusually dull or unusually sharp; the will surrenders to the will of another; and the head bows, the knees shake and the tears and fever come. — Ivan Goncharov
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Mark Lawrence Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Mark Lawrence](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-mark-lawrence-1712917.jpg)
There's a problem with continually stamping down on the least sensible instincts that drive men to recklessly endanger themselves. Even the most reasonable and level-headed of us have only limited space to store such unwanted emotion. You keep putting the stuff away, shoving it to the back of your mind but like an over-full cupboard there comes a point where you try to cram one more thing into it and all of a sudden something snaps, the catch gives, the door bursts open and everything inside spills out on top of you. — Mark Lawrence
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By C. JoyBell C. Mind Over Emotion Quotes By C. JoyBell C.](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-c-joybell-c-1651468.jpg)
The people of today have no nobility. They do not even know what it means to be noble of heart. There is no strength of character; there is only emotion. We live in a worldwide society of emotion-based actions, emotion-based thinking, emotion-based words. People do things because they feel like it, they think things ruled by their emotions to think it and they say things because in that moment it's what they are feeling. Character does, thinks and says from a place of core identity and truth. "This is my truth, thus I will do it, think it, speak it." Nobility means strength of character, a word of honor, immovability and mind over matter. The feelings and emotions of a noble person do not merely come and go with the tides; they are there in the first place because they wouldn't have been there if it were not already decided upon. That is nobility. — C. JoyBell C.
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Kamal Ravikant Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Kamal Ravikant](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-kamal-ravikant-474221.jpg)
This I know: the mind, left to itself, repeats the same stories, the same loops. Mostly ones that don't serve us. So what's practical, what's transformative, is to consciously choose a thought. Then practice it again and again. With emotion, with feeling, with acceptance. Lay down the synaptic pathways until the mind starts playing it automatically. Do this with enough intensity over time and the mind will have no choice. That's how it operates. Where do you think your original loops came from? — Kamal Ravikant
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Graham Spaid Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Graham Spaid](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-graham-spaid-1399282.jpg)
The expected battle hadn't taken place, yet something else had. Images of the entertainment which had just gone down were already coming back into Rat's head. It had been wonderful to watch, unbelievably wonderful, the enactment of several plays at once on a single stage, and Rat was sorry it was over, but in a way it was even better to relive it now in the privacy of his mind. He hadn't believed the boy-doctor and that stuff about the condom being used or warm, but he had gone along with it and the emotion which it powered. Everybody had. The emotion was the most important thing. He wondered how he could ever put such a chaotic, hilarious, sad thing down on paper, organise it into scenes or verses and fix his own pewiod at the end. He could never do it justice. He would never get that emotion back. — Graham Spaid
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jennifer Elisabeth Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Jennifer Elisabeth](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-jennifer-elisabeth-523183.jpg)
Organizing your emotions reclaims your power over any given drama. Nothing is stronger than your own mind. — Jennifer Elisabeth

When there is a fight of reason versus emotion and the mind wonders which one to follow, in most times, emotion wins over reason. But it is reason that should win and emotion shouldn't. — Abu Sufyan Ibn Harb
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Robert A. Heinlein Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Robert A. Heinlein](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-robert-a-heinlein-1310088.jpg)
Two bodies attract each other directly as the product of their masses and inversely as the square of their distance.' It sounds like a rule for simple physical facts, does it not? Yet it is nothing of the sort; it was the poetical way the old ones had of expressing the rule of propinquity which governs the emotion of love. The bodies referred to are human bodies, mass is their capacity for love. Young people have a greater capacity for love than the elderly; when thy are thrown together they fall in love, yet when they are separated they soon get over it. 'Out of sight, out of mind.' It's as simple as that. But you were seeking some deep meaning for it. — Robert A. Heinlein
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Laren Grey Umphlett Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Laren Grey Umphlett](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-laren-grey-umphlett-217244.jpg)
We seem to be a self aware confused intelligent greedy cooperative interconnected mammalian psycho-socio-physical spiritbody love/hate generator. A blend of body, mind, intellect, ego, emotion, sexuality, spirit, survival organism, individual, and needful member of a collective -a center of non-local consciousness aided by a nervous system and supported by a body and environment and extended cosmic circumstance. — Laren Grey Umphlett
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Christina Dodd Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Christina Dodd](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-christina-dodd-79636.jpg)
I can't take this kind of suspense. Decide now." He untied the ropes around her wrists. "Walk out the door. In a year you'll be free of any entanglements with me. Or stay and be my wife. My real wife. Make your choice."
She looked down at the loosened ropes still wrapped around her, then up at him.
He wore an expression of fierce indifference, but she knew better. This proud man, this noble marquees, had made up his mind he wished to marry her without knowing who she was or what she'd done. She would guess the decision was his first impetuous gesture since the day his mother had disappeared.
Amy couldn't fool herself. For him to go so contrary to his own nature, he must feel an overwhelming emotion for her. — Christina Dodd
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Agatha Christie Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Agatha Christie](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-agatha-christie-84032.jpg)
People bicker so and have such rows. Even if they're fond of each other, they still seem to have rows and not to mind a bit whether they have them in public or not. — Agatha Christie
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Vladimir Nabokov Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Vladimir Nabokov](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-vladimir-nabokov-91632.jpg)
When that slow-motion, silent explosion of love takes place in me, unfolding its melting fringes and overwhelming me with the sense of something much vaster, much more enduring and powerful than the accumulation of matter or energy in any imaginable cosmos, then my mind cannot but pinch itself to see if it is really awake. I have to make a rapid inventory of the universe, just as a man in a dream tries to condone the absurdity of his position by making sure he is dreaming. I have to have all space and all time participate in my emotion, in my mortal love, so that the edge of its mortality is taken off, thus helping me to fight the utter degradation, ridicule, and horror of having developed an infinity of sensation and thought within a finite existence. — Vladimir Nabokov
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Dalai Lama Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Dalai Lama](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-dalai-lama-129295.jpg)
Buddhahood is a state free of all obstructions to knowledge and disturbing emotions. It is the state in which the mind is fully evolved. — Dalai Lama

When you're overwhelmed by your emotion, you listen less and you judge more. This is also the reality of the dogmatic mind. — Tariq Ramadan

![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Dalai Lama XIV Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Dalai Lama XIV](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-dalai-lama-xiv-163135.jpg)
Like anyone else, I too have anger in me. However, I try to recall that anger is a destructive emotion. I remind myself that scientists now say that anger is bad for our health; it eats into our immune system. So, anger destroys our peace of mind and our physical health. We shouldn't welcome it or think of it as natural or as a friend. — Dalai Lama XIV
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Bruce Lee Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Bruce Lee](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-bruce-lee-164284.jpg)
Emotion can be the enemy, if you give into your emotion, you lose yourself. You must be at one with your emotions, because the body always follows the mind. — Bruce Lee
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-richelle-e-goodrich-183118.jpg)
What is this thing of intangible substance that wreaks consequential havoc on our lives? What is this sensitive thread that runs through heart and mind, and when given the slightest tremor grasps hold of all sanity, dragging the afflicted down to insufferable depths or flinging him weightless to euphoric heights? What is this magic we would deem imagination, fantasy, or pretend if not for the evidence of power manifest by human consequences? Effortlessly controlling us, it affects the infected in an instant. It takes but one word, one thought, one act to become immersed.
To stop it is hopeless.
To stifle it, demanding.
To think to master it is both improbable and pretentious.
What is this invisible hand that blinds our eyes and reigns hearts with a string? It is nature's drug and poison we call emotion. — Richelle E. Goodrich
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Eckhart Tolle Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Eckhart Tolle](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-eckhart-tolle-193717.jpg)
You may not yet be able to bring your unconscious mind activity into awareness as thoughts, but it will always be reflected in the body as an emotion, and of this you can become aware. — Eckhart Tolle
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By H.G.Wells Mind Over Emotion Quotes By H.G.Wells](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-h-g-wells-198064.jpg)
For that moment I touched an emotion beyond the common range of men, yet one the poor brutes we dominate know only too well. I felt as a rabbit might feel returning to his burrow, and suddenly confronted by the work of a dozen busy navvies digging the foundations of a house. I felt the first inkling of a thing that presently grew quite clear in my mind, that oppressed me for many days, a sense of dethronement, a persuasion that I was no longer master, but an animal among animals; under the Martian heel. — H.G.Wells
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Chris Lange Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Chris Lange](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-chris-lange-371191.jpg)
I long for your embrace, your warmth, and your gentleness. I crave your touch. Your body, your mind, your words move me. I fear I am not capable of expressing the depth of my emotion, for I have never known such a feeling and never will again. As much as I have striven to remain detached, my heart and my soul belong to you, now and forever. — Chris Lange
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By A.C. Grayling Mind Over Emotion Quotes By A.C. Grayling](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-a-c-grayling-233650.jpg)
Emotion is bad if it hinders the mind from thinking. An
emotion that opens the mind to contemplate several
aspects of things at once is better than one that fixes
thought to an obsession. — A.C. Grayling
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Matthieu Ricard Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Matthieu Ricard](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-matthieu-ricard-238691.jpg)
By happiness I mean here a deep sense of flourishing that arises from an exceptionally healthy mind. This is not a mere pleasurable feeling, a fleeting emotion, or a mood, but an optimal state of being. Happiness is also a way of interpreting the world, since while it may be difficult to change the world, it is always possible to change the way we look at it. — Matthieu Ricard
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By P.G. Mathew Mind Over Emotion Quotes By P.G. Mathew](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-p-g-mathew-239778.jpg)
Christian love is not a wave of emotion, but a deliberate conviction of the mind that issues in a biblical way of life. (p. 36) — P.G. Mathew
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Sherry Turkle Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Sherry Turkle](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-sherry-turkle-245126.jpg)
This kind of pragmatism has become a hallmark of our psychological culture. In the mid-1990s, I described how it was commonplace for people to "cycle through" different ideas of the human mind as (to name only a few images) mechanism, spirit, chemistry, and vessel for the soul.14 These days, the cycling through intensifies. We are in much more direct contact with the machine side of mind. People are fitted with a computer chip to help with Parkinson's. They learn to see their minds as program and hardware. They take antidepressants prescribed by their psychotherapists, confident that the biochemical and oedipal self can be treated in one room. They look for signs of emotion in a brain scan. Old jokes about couples needing "chemistry" turn out not to be jokes at all. — Sherry Turkle
![Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Franz Kafka Mind Over Emotion Quotes By Franz Kafka](https://quotessayings.net/pics/mind-over-emotion-quote-by-franz-kafka-249018.jpg)
The experience of life consists of the experience which the spirit has of itself in matter and as matter, in mind and as mind, in emotion, as emotion, etc. — Franz Kafka

His eyes searched hers. I'd rather just be me. Feel comfortable in my own skin and be able to speak my mind without having to carry a damned thesaurus. Sure doesn't seem worth giving up who you are to please others. Far as I'm concerned, they either like me or they don't. Their choice. — Leah Braemel

When a strong emotion is hitting you, it's like nothing else in the world matters and you forget to keep in mind that the emotion will pass. You forget that the strength of the present emotion does not necessarily have anything to do with its long term impact on you. — Anonymous

We sometimes hurt those we love because they need to be "taught a lesson," when we really want to punish. We were depressed and complained we felt bad, when in fact we were mainly asking for sympathy and attention. This odd trait of mind and emotion, this perverse wish to hide a bad motive underneath a good one, permeates human affairs from top to bottom. This subtle and elusive kind of self-righteousness can underlie the smallest act or thought. Learning daily to spot, admit, and correct these flaws is the essence of character-building and good living. An honest regret for harms done, a genuine gratitude for blessings received, and a willingness to try for better things tomorrow will be the permanent assets we shall seek. — Alcoholics Anonymous

Anymore, no one's mind is their own. You can't concentrate. You can't think. There's always some noise worming in. Singers shouting. Dead people laughing. Actors crying. All those little doses of emotion. — Chuck Palahniuk

You can win tournaments when you're mechanical, but golf is a game of emotion and adjustment. If you're not aware of what's happening to your mind and your body when you're playing, you'll never be able to be the very best you can be. — Jack Nicklaus

Horror is one of the few genres - romance and comedy are the other two that come to mind - that's all emotion-driven. It's not a rational genre, like science fiction is. It's irrational by nature. And it is capable of exploring all aspects of human experience. — Stephen R. Bissette

Jane Austen is thus a mistress of much deeper emotion than appears upon the surface. She stimulates us to supply what is not there. What she offers is, apparently, a trifle, yet is composed of something that expands in the reader's mind and endows with the most enduring form of life scenes which are outwardly trivial. Always the stress is laid upon character... The turns and twists of the dialogue keep us on the tenterhooks of suspense. Our attention is half upon the present moment, half upon the future...Here, indeed, in this unfinished and in the main inferior story, are all the elements of Jane Austen's greatness. — Virginia Woolf
