We are all united by both pain and love. Both a smile and a wound. We are all united by these very basic yet very influential things, because we all recognize them, we all know what they feel like to have or to give. Everything else, all the other things that do not unite us - those things are all illusions. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Overcoming Illusions quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Speaking uphill takes courage. It takes overcoming a universal human affliction - the impostor complex. All of us labor, to one degree or another, under the belief that if other people really knew us, if they knew us the way we know ourselves, they would think less of us. That's the impostor complex - the fear that by showing ourselves we will be exposed as the flawed person we are. If you don't have this, in some measure, you are an incredible jerk and should stop reading immediately. ~ James B. Comey
Overcoming Illusions quotes by James B. Comey
Of course I know that the twins are only words on a page, and I'm certainly not the sort of writer who talks to his characters or harbours any illusions about the creative process. But at the same time, I think it's juvenile and arrogant when literary writers compulsively remind their readers that the characters aren't real. People know that already. The challenge is to make an intelligent reader suspend disbelief, to seduce them into the reality of a narrative. ~ Michel Faber
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Michel Faber
Everything good is costly, and the development of the personality is one of the most costly of all things. It will cost you your innocence, your illusions, your certainty. (10) ~ Sheldon B. Kopp
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Sheldon B. Kopp
If you are deaf, you need captions for spoken elements. If you are blind, you need voiced descriptions of Web contents and spoken renderings of e-mail. The range of physical disabilities is very large, and we need many different tools to overcome the consequential barriers to Internet use. Let us commit ourselves to truly assuring that the Internet really is for everyone. ~ Vinton Cerf
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Vinton Cerf
Always hedge your bets. That's how I do it. I lay all my bets on what I can contribute, and suffer no illusions that I'm generating stuff by myself. ~ Dan Harmon
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Dan Harmon
Each holiday tradition acts as an exercise in cognitive development, a greater challenge for the child. Despite the fact most parents don't recognize this function, they still practice the exercise.

Rant also saw how resolving the illusions is crucial to how the child uses any new skills.

A child who is never coached with Santa Claus may never develop an ability to imagine. To him, nothing exists except the literal and tangible.

A child who is disillusioned abruptly, by his peers or siblings, being ridiculed for his faith and imagination, may choose never to believe in anything- tangible or intangible- again. To never trust or wonder.

But a child who relinquishes the illusions of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy, that child may come away with the most important skill set. That child may recognize the strength of his own imagination and faith. He will embrace the ability to create his own reality. That child becomes his own authority. He determines the nature of his world. His own vision. And by doing so, by the power of his example, he determines the reality of the other two types: those who can't imagine, and those who can't trust. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Whenever we are inclined to feel burdened down with the blows of life, let us remember that others have passed the same way, have endured, and then have overcome. ~ Thomas S. Monson
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Thomas S. Monson
Karate-do strives internally to train the mind to develop a clear conscience, enabling one to face the world honestly, while externally developing strength to the point where one may overcome even ferocious wild animals. Mind and technique become one in true karate. ~ Gichin Funakoshi
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Gichin Funakoshi
He'd been back for about two weeks, and everything in Laurel's life had been thrown into Chaos. Sexy, sexy chaos. ~ Aprilynne Pike
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Aprilynne Pike
The Federal role in overcoming barriers to needed health care should emphasize health care financing programs-such as Medicare and Medicaid. ~ Gerald R. Ford
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Gerald R. Ford
Expectations are illusions;
Pretense they hang on thin threads. ~ Kristian Goldmund Aumann
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Kristian Goldmund Aumann
All great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulties, and both must be enterprised and overcome with answerable courage. ~ William Bradford
Overcoming Illusions quotes by William Bradford
It is respectable to have no illusions, and safe, and profitable and dull. ~ Joseph Conrad
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Joseph Conrad
Nor had I any illusions about Algernon Charles Swinburne, who often used to stop my perambulator when he met it on Nurses' Walk, at the edge of Wimbledon Common, and pat me on the head and kiss me: he was an inveterate pram-stopper and patter and kisser. ~ Robert Graves
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Robert Graves
Overcoming fear and conceiving this 'art of more' should be a fundamental practice in what it is that you do and make. ~ Chase Jarvis
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Chase Jarvis
The single most dangerous (to the controllers) Human Soul alive in our time is the person who listens to their heart and is withdrawing all their agreements to the various fictions in play right now. If you cannot be conned by fictions presented to you, than the only thing remaining, is reality. Like layers of an onion, we strip away the illusions of reality to reveal spirit. That's one of the aspects of orgone work, to strip away the layers of lies blanketing all the kingdoms, mineral, animal, plant, human, angelic, and other. As you gift, freeing others, you free yourself. And further down/up the rabbit hole of wisdom and knowledge we fall. ~ Don Bradley
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Don Bradley
he argued that the Europeans of the 1800s struggled to understand divine energy in two ways, first through theatrical acts where mesmerists and hypnotists amazed audiences with illusions and parlor tricks. When the audiences confronted inexplicable illusions, the performers on stage suggested that mysterious forces were at work. ~ Scott Carney
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Scott Carney
Truly, a command of gall cannot be obeyed like one of sugar. A man must require just and reasonable things; if he would see the scales of obedience properly trimmed. From orders which are improper, springs resistance, which is not easily overcome. ~ Giambattista Basile
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Giambattista Basile
Beauty is the only human aspect which cannot be captured on any canvas howsoever hard an artist tries. At the most, the undaunted artist can replicate the beauty on paper but what is a replica in comparison to the original! The humbling resemblance can only be respected, not truly adored.
Beauty cannot be imprisoned in the lens of a camera. The images of beauty are a moment of its essence. Beauty cannot be displayed to evoke pleasure for all on a cinema screen. Those are just its imprints, mere illusions of its existence. Beauty cannot be described by words; it cannot be written or read about. There are no suitable words in all the languages of the world, ancient or modern to hold it between a paper and a pen or a script and an eye. Beauty can only be experienced from far, its delightful aroma can only be tasted through one's eyes and its pleasurable sight can only be felt from the soul.
Beauty can only be best described at its origin through a befuddling silence, the kind that leaves one almost on the verge of a pleasurable death, just because one chooses beauty over life. There is nothing in this world to hold something so pure, so divine except a loving heart. And it is the only manner through which love recognises love; the language of love has no alphabet, no words. ~ Faraaz Kazi
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Faraaz Kazi
Naturally, therefore, these people talk about 'a happy time coming'; 'the paradise of the future'; 'mankind freed from the bondage of vice and the bondage of virtue', and so on. And so also the men of the inner circle speak - the sacred priesthood. They also speak to applauding crowds of the happiness of the future, and of mankind freed at last. But in their mouths" - and the policeman lowered his voice - "in their mouths these happy phrases have a horrible meaning. They are under no illusions; they are too intellectual to think that man upon this earth can ever be quite free of original sin and the struggle. And they mean death. When they say that mankind shall be free at last, they mean that mankind shall commit suicide. When they talk of a paradise without right or wrong, they mean the grave. They have but two objects, to destroy first humanity and then themselves. That is why they throw bombs instead of firing pistols. The innocent rank and file are disappointed because the bomb has not killed the king; but the high-priesthood are happy because it has killed somebody. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Overcoming Illusions quotes by G.K. Chesterton
All force strives forward to work far and wide
To live and grow and ever to expand;
Yet we are checked and thwarted on each side
By the world's flux and swept along like sand:
In this internal storm and outward tide
We hear a promise, hard to understand:
From the compulsion that all creatures binds,
Who overcomes himself, his freedom finds. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Overcoming procrastination is not, I repeat, not about cramming additional work into your day ... overcoming procrastination is about simplifying your life to make space for the activities that matter most. ~ Richie Norton
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Richie Norton
Those who are unhappy
clutch at shadows, and to
give themselves an enjoyment
that truth refuses them, they
artfully bring into being all
sorts of illusions. ~ Marquis De Sade
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Marquis De Sade
It is foolish to fear what you cannot avoid. ~ Publilius Syrus
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Publilius Syrus
It is a curious fact that of all the illusions that beset mankind none is quite so curious as that tendency to suppose that we are mentally and morally superior to those who differ from us in opinion. ~ Elbert Hubbard
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Elbert Hubbard
Everything is God. Everything is light. It is only when we live in illusions, when there are shadows in our mind that we are afraid. ~ Frederick Lenz
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Frederick Lenz
Resolve not to be overcome by evil, but to combat evil with good. ~ Pope Francis
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Pope Francis
There have always been and always will be people who want to help. They just don't know how. ~ Linda Armstrong
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Linda    Armstrong
He'd learned pretty early that the illusioned virtuous creatures were no more than that - illusions. Innocence was a community that was used up and consumed fairly quickly. More often than not, innocence was just ignorance, and the true character revealed itself before long - twisted and greedy like the rest. ~ Camille Oster
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Camille Oster
As a young man, the seer became a rake. He drank and fought and made free with the village girls. He became a wagoner, carrying goods and passengers to other villages, an occupation that extended the range of his conquests. A good talker, sure of himself, he tried every girl he met. His method was direct: he grabbed and started undoing buttons. Naturally, he was frequently kicked and scratched and bitten, but the sheer volume of his efforts brought him notable success. He learned that even in the shyest and primmest of girls, the emptiness and loneliness of life in a Siberian village had bred a flickering appetite for romance and adventure. Gregory's talent was for stimulating those appetites and overcoming all hesitations by direct, good-natured aggression. ~ Robert K. Massie
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Robert K. Massie
You must not look in that mirror at your doughy legs and flat feet, for today is about dreams and illusions, and unfiltered natural daylight is the enemy of dreams. ~ Tina Fey
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Tina Fey
Where are the young who must dedicate their roseate hours, their illusions and enthusiasm to the good of the country? Where are they who must generously spill their blood to wash away so much shame, so many crimes, so much abomination? Pure and spotless must be the victim for the holocaust to be acceptable. Where are you, you children who must embody the vigor of life that has fled from your veins, the purity of ideas that has become in our minds and the fire of enthusiasm that has gone out in our hearts? We await you, Oh youth! Come, we await you! ~ Jose Rizal
Overcoming Illusions quotes by Jose Rizal
It's not so much for me where you come from, who you are, what race you are. We're just human beings that are still a work in progress and there's a lot that we've got to overcome, so that we can all be equal. ~ Gloria Estefan
