A quote by Edward Abbey
feelings mean nothing if they’re not backed by effort. and i didn’t put in the effort.
Some one highly susceptible to the contemplation of a fine act has said, that it produces a sort of regenerating shudder through the frame, and makes one feel ready to begin a new life.
Rosemary Ashton • Middlemarch
“Emotions and the feelings are not a luxury, they are a means of communicating our states of mind to others. But they are also a way of guiding our own judgments and decisions. Emotions bring the body into the loop of reason.”
