Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings – always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche – Thoughts, Feeling
To feel an emotion fully and completely, to experience it and then release it, is to be in the present, the only moment that never ages.
Deepak Chopra – Emotion, Feeling
To have in general but little feeling, seems to be the only security against feeling too much on any particular occasion.
George Eliot – Feeling
If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel’s heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence. As it is, the best of us walk about well wadded with stupidity.
George Eliot – Feeling, Life, Vision
It requires nothing less than a chivalric feeling to sustain a conversation with a lady.
Henry David Thoreau – Feeling
I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Maya Angelou – Life, Society
Nothing is more repugnant to me than brotherly feelings grounded in the common baseness people see in one another.
Milan Kundera – Feeling
Feelings do not grow old along with the body. Feelings form part of a world I don’t know, but it’s a world where there’s no time, so space, no frontiers.
