An unbalanced soul seeks equilibrium. I seek a constitutional form to gather my thoughts. I wish to form a flexible personality. I desire to be gentle and fluid of mind. I wish to summon hidden personal powers, but I lack the knowledge and wisdom to do so. I lack a cohesive unifying spirit. I have yet to claim the authenticity of my life. I failed to accept that what anyone else thinks of me would not stave off an inevitable death. I have not claimed a purpose for living. I have not found a basic truth that I can live and die supporting. I failed to exert the resolute will to become who I aspire to be. I rejected abstract concepts and failed to endorse the systematic reasoning of philosophical studies. I indulged in the type of obsessive excessive self-analysis, which leads to the brink of personal destruction through self-objectification and artificial triumphs. Echoing the words of Romanian philosopher and writer E.M. Cioran (1911-1995), 'I've invented nothing; I've simply been the secretary of my sensations. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
I'm often called obsessive, but I don't think I am any more than anyone else. ~ Nicholson Baker
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Nicholson Baker
If the book is finished - published and on the shelf - I do not think of revising it. But if I'm not finished psychologically with characters, they will recur, either as themselves or as new, slightly altered manifestations, and their same issues will reappear. It's a matter of the subject and emotional investment and my own obsessive thinking about various issues It's an unconscious process. To say that a single story is not done isn't quite true. A story can be finished and judged successful or not by somebody else, but if the issue is not done for me, I can count on its reappearance. ~ Antonya Nelson
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Antonya Nelson
One morning in early June, I woke up with my usual anxious thoughts. I worried that Mike wouldn't like me anymore, that I wasn't good enough to play with him and his friends. What I didn't know then was that anxious, obsessive worrying helped my mind keep parts of me that had been raped and abused shut away, removed from my consciousness. Although the worrying was unpleasant, it served as a superficial distraction. It helped me get out of bed, focus on something else, and go on with my day. ~ Olga Trujillo
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Olga Trujillo
I don't think that Women's Liberation will change much though
not because there is anything wrong with their aims, but because it is already clear that the whole world is being shaken into a new pattern by the cataclysms we are living through: probably by the time we are through, if we do get through at all, the aims of Women's Liberation will look very small and quaint. ~ Doris Lessing
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Doris Lessing
You know, I hate to borrow Apple's tag, but think different. Really. From the very beginning. I didn't know what the fast-food rules were. I got my training at the Culinary Institute Of America, and then I opened up a fast food place according to fine dining rules. ~ Steve Ells
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Steve Ells
I'm a bit of a weird creature ... I'm self taught and went to a regular film school, not art school, and I think it's unusual for somebody to approach animation from that angle. In a sense I've sometimes consclassered myself more of a filmmaker who just happens to animate. ~ Don Hertzfeldt
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Don Hertzfeldt
I think the way I want to think. I live the way I want to live. ~ Sidney Poitier
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Sidney Poitier
We live in a highly polarized society. We need to try to understand each other in respectful ways. To that end, I believe that we should make room for both spiritual atheists and thinking believers. ~ Alan Lightman
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Alan Lightman
What is man? Storyteller, mythmaker, and destroyer of the living world. Thinking ~ Edward O. Wilson
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Edward O. Wilson
I think it modern society as a whole, but definitively in Brazil, spaces are so well divided and there are so many barriers, and so many divisions, so many lines and so many borderlines, basically telling you that you should be here but not here. This is my space and this is your space, and this is expressed very dramatically in architecture, we have a very kind of aggressive, almost medieval concept for architecture, which is basically keeping people out. So you get high walls, fences, and electric fences, and divisions like that. ~ Kleber Mendonca Filho
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Kleber Mendonca Filho
I'm interested in the cultural thing - music, then eventually cinema. I think it's part of my struggle as a cultural worker. I'm not into the armed thing. I cannot be violent. ~ Lav Diaz
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Lav Diaz
You are more important to yourself than you think you are. ~ Bill Cosby
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Bill Cosby
No matter what happens, you're always going to have those critics and those haters. You just have to learn how to deal with that. I think I have and accept that. ~ Tim Tebow
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Tim Tebow
The Japanese scientists just found a 25,000-year-old mammoth in the ice in Siberia, and they're about to clone it ... You think the Japanese of all people would want nothing to do with prehistoric animals after what happened with Godzilla. ~ Greg Giraldo
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Greg Giraldo
We Marxists believe that a revolution will also take place in other countries. But it will take place only when the revolutionaries in those countries think it possible, or necessary. The export of revolution is nonsense. Every country will make its own revolution if it wants to, and if it does not want to, there will be no revolution. ~ J. Stalin
Obsessive Thinking quotes by J. Stalin
I like myself.

Not once did I ever hate myself.

My basic, but high specs; my decent face; and my pessimistic, but realistic thinking; I didn't hate any single one of them.

But now, for the first time, I was on the verge of hating myself.

I arbitrarily placed my expectations on her, I arbitrarily forced my ideals on her, I arbitrarily acted as if I understood her, and I arbitrarily disappointed myself. Over and over again, I'd warn myself, yet I just wouldn't learn.

- - Even Yukinoshita Yukino tells lies.

For not being able to acknowledge something so obvious, I hate myself. ~ Wataru Watari
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Wataru Watari
Artists aren't necessarily business people. And they aren't necessarily aware of all the things that go on in their names. Some just want to make some music, but there is a lot of greed
among artists as well. Whether or not we know it, we are all to blame. I think it's time - starting with the artist - to try to be a little more responsible and aware of what goes on in our
name. ~ Tom Petty
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Tom Petty
I never read Freud. I've never been attracted to anything he has said, and I think he's started a lot of nonsense with psychiatry and that business. I don't think psychiatry can help or has helped anybody. I think it's a big fraud (pun not intended) on the public. ~ Bob Dylan
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Bob Dylan
For a long time I have compared cinema to music, I think cinema has a lot to do with the rhythm of music. ~ Isabelle Huppert
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Isabelle Huppert
I don't think that it's possible to have a truly rewarding experience in travel if it's simple. ~ Paul Theroux
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Paul Theroux
You judge yourself by what you think you can achieve, others judge you by what have achieved. ~ Confucius
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Confucius
You think they've gone to London to track Lissa down?" Weldon was worried over the same thing, but didn't want to reveal his concern to Lucas.

"Yes. Their mother is terrified and you know what the Council might do if they find out."

"They are not the most forgiving race on the earth," Weldon agreed, staring into his own coffee cup for a few moments.

"I don't think we can afford to anger them any more than we already have," Lucas went on. "I have no idea what Tony was thinking when he did what he did."

Weldon didn't know either, and had Tony Hancock not been as highly placed as he was, Weldon might have sought justice for Tony's acts himself. Lissa was Pack and she'd been violated. He'd toyed with the idea of pulling his wolves out of the special division of the FBI. Daryl, Weldon's son, had pointed out that the information garnered through those wolves had been invaluable from time to time. For the moment, Weldon judiciously left those wolves where they were. ~ Connie Suttle
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Connie Suttle
Dearest Cecilia, You'd be forgiven for thinking me mad, the way I acted this afternoon. The truth is I feel rather light headed and foolish in your presence, Cee, and I don't think I can blame the heat. ~ Ian McEwan
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Ian McEwan
I watched them, thinking that little girls who make their mothers live grow up to be such powerful women. ~ Elizabeth Gilbert
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Elizabeth Gilbert
Billy Graham is one of my great lifetime heroes. I think he epitomizes the essence of what a Christian leader should be. I have participated in some of his crusades a couple of times in Atlanta. I've seen the profound impact he's had on me personally, and on other people who were not Christians and accepted Christ as Savior. ~ Jimmy Carter
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Jimmy Carter
The most likely cause of a man's depression is his failure to be the man he thinks he should be ~ Frank Pittman
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Frank Pittman
If you live in New York and you have a guest room, you have guests. So I think it's best not to have a guest room. ~ Fran Lebowitz
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Fran Lebowitz
Physically, my character is stronger than him which is totally unrealistic, ... Because in reality he can ... kill me. I think it has a lot to do with (him being) the youngest of all of his brothers, and I think he got beat up a lot. ~ Pauly Shore
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Pauly Shore
Labour voters are crying out for effective leadership.I'm afraid I don't think Jeremy [Corbyn]can provide it. ~ Jeremy Corbyn
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Jeremy Corbyn
I've always been a pretty private, quiet kind of person and so I haven't had to change my life really at all, I don't think. ~ Keith Urban
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Keith Urban
We win because we hire the smartest people. We improve our products based on feedback, until they're the best. We have retreats each year where we think about where the world is heading. ~ Bill Gates
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Bill Gates
I think, too, that we've got to recognize that where the preservation of a natural resource like the redwoods is concerned, that there is a common sense limit. I mean, if you've looked at a hundred thousand acres or so of trees-you know, a tree is a tree, how many more do you need to look at?
Opposing expansion of Redwood National Park. ~ Ronald Reagan
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Ronald Reagan
Our approach is very much profiting from lack of change rather than from change. With Wrigley chewing gum, it's the lack of change that appeals to me. I don't think it is going to be hurt by the Internet. That's the kind of business I like. ~ Warren Buffett
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Warren Buffett
Don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart, I just don't think it'd understand. ~ Billy Ray Cyrus
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Billy Ray Cyrus
Don't worry about the game you just won or the team that we just blew out ... or, um ... blown ... blowed out ... Let's think about what we need to do going forward, and they had, uh ... blown out. ~ Emmitt Smith
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Emmitt Smith
Think pink but don't wear it ~ Karl Lagerfeld
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Karl Lagerfeld
You think, you don't just speak. The lines come off the thoughts. ~ Jeremy Irons
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Jeremy Irons
I think I am too interested in my own ideas to copy anyone else's, but I find that other people's imagery, the flow of language in the outside world, games with words, and ideas about relationships are all most important to me. ~ Margaret Mahy
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Margaret Mahy
By definition, half the people leaving the courtroom are unhappy. Any good judge can make more than half the people unhappy. The job is not to make people like you or make people think you're their friend. ~ Steven Pacey
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Steven Pacey
I can't think of any issue that is more important than working to see that no schoolchild in this world goes hungry. ~ Drew Barrymore
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Drew Barrymore
Until we recognize the SELF that exists apart from who we think we are - we cannot know the Ch'an ( ZEN ) MIND ~ D.T. Suzuki
Obsessive Thinking quotes by D.T. Suzuki
I had lots of trouble in school as a child, and I lost confidence. Teachers thought I was stupid. I learned to read very late, when I was 11. Dyslexia wasn't recognized then, and the assumption was you were incapable of thinking. ~ Richard Rogers
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Richard Rogers
As ships meet at sea a moment together, when words of greeting must be spoken, and then away upon the deep, so men meet in this world; and I think we should cross no man's path without hailing him, and if he needs giving him supplies. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Henry Ward Beecher
I think exactly the same qualities as men [women role model needs], exactly the same, which is kindness, courage and intelligence. ~ Mark Millar
Obsessive Thinking quotes by Mark Millar
P14 - People educate each other through the mediation of the world ~ Paulo Freire
