Mind and intuition are at opposite ends of the same continuum and our goal is to strike a healthy balance between the two. ~ Shakti Gawain
Two Opposites quotes by Shakti Gawain
Mind training is based on the idea that two opposite mental factors cannot happen at the same time. You could go from love to hate. But you cannot, at the same time - toward the same object, the same person - want to harm and want to do good. ~ Matthieu Ricard
Two Opposites quotes by Matthieu Ricard
The Mutakallemim ... apply the term non-existence only to absolute non-existence, and not to absence of properties. A property and the absence of that property are considered by them as two opposites, they treat, e.g. , blindness and sight, death and life, in the same way as heat and cold. Therefore they say, without any qualification, non-existence does not require any agent, an agent is required when something is produced. ~ Maimonides
Two Opposites quotes by Maimonides
Indiscriminate tolerance and indiscriminate condemnation are not two opposites: they are two variants of the same evasion. ~ Ayn Rand
Two Opposites quotes by Ayn Rand
In Persia we call the meeting of two opposites bar-khord. Bar-khord happens when two strong elements touch and something new forms at their point of intersection. It is not a clash of opposites, more like an intermingling. This in-between state is in constant flux. It doesn't set opposites against each other; it is the source of a third element, something completely new that draws on the opposites and bears no major similarities to either one or the other. ~ Nina George
Two Opposites quotes by Nina George
The essence of peace is to merge two opposites. Therefore your notions should not scare you if you see another, who absolutely opposes you, and you presume that there is no chance for peace between you two. On the same token when you see two individuals who are exactly two opposites, never say it would be impossible for them to reconcile. On the contrary, and this is the perfection of peace to make it between two opposites. ~ Nachman Of Breslov
Two Opposites quotes by Nachman Of Breslov
Woman must come of age by herself. This is the essence of "coming of age" -to learn how to stand alone. ~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Two Opposites quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
To contrast national solidarity and international cooperation as two opposites seems foolish to me. ~ Gustav Stresemann
Two Opposites quotes by Gustav Stresemann
When once we have discovered how pain and suffering diminish the personality and how joy alone increases it, then the morbid attraction which is felt for evil, pain and abnormality will have lost its power. Why do we reward our men of genius, our suicides, our madmen and the generally maladjusted with the melancholy honours of a posthumous curiosity? Because we know that it is our society which has condemned these men to death and which is guilty because, out of its own ignorance and malformation, it has persecuted those who were potential saviours; smiters of the rock who might have touched the spring of healing and brought us back into harmony with ourselves. Somehow, then, and without going mad, we must learn from these madmen to reconcile fanaticism with serenity. Either one, taken alone, is disastrous, yet except through the integration of these two opposites there can be no great art and no profound happiness--and what else is worth having? For nothing can be accomplished without fanaticism and without serenity nothing can be enjoyed. ~ Cyril Connolly
Two Opposites quotes by Cyril Connolly
Physiologically, the union of two opposites is a pleasurable affair. Why should the psyche be any different? ~ Anthony Marais
Two Opposites quotes by Anthony Marais
The principle of nonviolent resistance seeks to reconcile the truths of two opposites-Acquiescence and violence -while avoiding the extremes and immoralities of both. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Two Opposites quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
We want Realism's wealth of experience and Symbolism's depth of feeling. All art is a problem of balance between two opposites. ~ Cesare Pavese
Two Opposites quotes by Cesare Pavese
A veil hangs between the two opposites, a mere slip of a thing that is transparent to warn us or comfort us. You hate now but look through this veil and see the possibility of love; you're sad now but look through to the other side and see happiness. Absolute composure to a complete mess - it happens so quickly, all in the blink of an eye. ~ Cecelia Ahern
Two Opposites quotes by Cecelia Ahern
Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet. ~ Andy Warhol
Two Opposites quotes by Andy Warhol
Juliette felt a wash of fear and relief, those two opposites twisting together like staircase and rail. ~ Hugh Howey
Two Opposites quotes by Hugh Howey
In two opposite opinions, if one be perfectly reasonable, the other can't be perfectly right. ~ Oliver Goldsmith
Two Opposites quotes by Oliver Goldsmith
The mystery of the evening-star brilliant in silence and distance between the downward-surging plunge of the sun and the vast, hollow seething of inpouring night. The magnificence of the watchful morning-star, that watches between the night and the day, the gleaming clue to the two opposites. ~ D.H. Lawrence
Two Opposites quotes by D.H. Lawrence
The real relatedness between two people is experienced in the small tasks they do together: the quiet conversation when the day's upheavels are at rest, the soft word of understanding, the daily companionship, the encouragement offered in a difficult moment, the small gift when least expected, the spontaneous gesture of love. ~ Robert A. Johnson
Two Opposites quotes by Robert A. Johnson
The orthodox doctrine of the Trinity taught that there are multiple (three) persons, but they all share one nature in the Godhead, preserving monotheism. Conversely, the personhood of Christ shares multiple (two) natures - God and man, timeless and subject to time, invisible and visible - yet he is one person.15 ~ Justin S. Holcomb
Two Opposites quotes by Justin S. Holcomb
The significance of Columbus's discovery was that on a round earth, humanity is more interconnected than on a flat one. On a round earth, the two most distant points are closer together than they are on a flat earth. ~ Matt Taibbi
Two Opposites quotes by Matt Taibbi
We all declare for liberty, but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. ~ Abraham Lincoln
Two Opposites quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Friends and family arrived at the church: Becky and Connell, my two lifelong friends and bridesmaids. Marlboro Man's cousins and college friends. And Mike. My dear brother Mike, who hugged everyone who entered the church, from the little old ladies to the strapping former college football players. And just as I was greeting my Uncle John, I saw Mike go in for the kill as Tony, Marlboro Man's good college friend, entered the door.
"Wh-wh-wh-what is you name?" Mike's thundering voice echoed through the church.
"Hi, I'm Tony," Marlboro Man's friend said, extending his hand.
"It's n-n-n-nice to meet you, Tony," Mike shouted back, not letting go of Tony's hand.
"Nice to meet you too, Mike," Tony said, likely wondering when he would get his hand back.
"You so handsome," Mike said.
Oh, Lord. Please, no, I thought.
"Why…thank you, Mike," Tony replied, smiling uncomfortably. If it hadn't been my wedding rehearsal, I might have popped some popcorn, sat back, and enjoyed the show. But I just couldn't watch. Mike's affection had never been any respecter of persons. ~ Ree Drummond
Two Opposites quotes by Ree Drummond
These, then, are the two points I wanted to make. First, that human beings, all over the earth, have this curious idea that they ought to behave in a certain way, and cannot really get rid of it. Secondly, that they do not in fact behave in that way. They know the Law of Nature; they break it. These two facts are the foundation of all clear thinking about ourselves and the universe we live in. ~ C.S. Lewis
Two Opposites quotes by C.S. Lewis
There is nothing as beautiful as two wonderful souls in love. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Two Opposites quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Man has one name, and many more than two natures. But the essential two are these: that he shall strive to impose order on chaos, and that he shall strive to take advantage of chaos ... A third element of man's nature is this: that he shall not understand what he is doing. ~ John Brunner
Two Opposites quotes by John Brunner
We belong to a tradition where we treat the entire universe as our family. For me, globalisation is the manifestation of nationalisation. There is no contradiction between the two. ~ Narendra Modi
Two Opposites quotes by Narendra Modi
I came in at half past eleven. Since then I have been sitting in an easy chair like a fool. I could do nothing. I hear nothing but your voice. I am like a fool hearing you call me 'Dear.' I offended two men today by leaving them coolly. I wanted to hear your voice, not theirs. When I am with you I leave aside my contemptuous, suspicious nature. I wish I felt your head on my shoulder. ~ James Joyce
Two Opposites quotes by James Joyce
From the day I met her at the wedding rehearsal, I couldn't stop thinking of her beautiful face. I was forever drawing her, sketching her, and even tattooing her. How many people in Ellsberg were walking around with tattoos of Lark's face? Whenever a client didn't bring a specific image in and a woman's face was involved, I used Lark's. Hell, I hadn't even noticed this fact until two happy clients showed off their tattoos and I realized the pinup girl and fairy princess had the same face. ~ Bijou Hunter
Two Opposites quotes by Bijou Hunter
Did things get a lot hotter between you two? A little stove-top stuffing in the kitchen?-Amy ~ Daria Snadowsky
Two Opposites quotes by Daria Snadowsky
Each heartbeat begins with a single, electrical impulse, or "spark." The distinctive sound we hear through a stethoscope, or when we place our head on a loved one's chest, is the sound of the heart valves opening and closing in perfect synchronicity with each other. It is a two-party rhythm - a delicate dance of systole and diastole, which propels the heart's electrically charged particles through its chambers roughly every second of the day, every day of our lives. ~ Jessi Kirby
Two Opposites quotes by Jessi Kirby
I prefer to believe the opposite - that there is always an indestructible beauty at the heart of darkness. ~ Mary Balogh
Two Opposites quotes by Mary Balogh
Five trolls in a dra-a-a-a-ag,' the four-inch man sang from my shoulder. 'Four purple condoms, three French ticklers, two horny vamps and a succubus in the snow. ~ Kim Harrison
Two Opposites quotes by Kim Harrison
Writing fiction is an act of imagination and fantasizing, and it's not relating in prose what you've been doing for the last two or three years. ~ Bret Easton Ellis
Two Opposites quotes by Bret Easton Ellis
Comfortable shoes and the freedom to leave are the two most important things in life. ~ Shel Silverstein
Two Opposites quotes by Shel Silverstein
The strong and strange thing - that which moves on its way as do birth and death, and the rising and setting of the sun - had begun to move in them. It was no new and rare thing, but an ancient and common one - as common and ancient as death and birth themselves; and part of the law as they are. As it comes to royal persons to whom one makes obeisance at their mere passing by, as it comes to scullery maids in royal kitchens, and grooms in royal stables, as it comes to ladies-in-waiting and the women who serve them, so it had come to these two who had been drawn near to each other from the opposite sides of the earth, and each started at the touch of it, and withdrew a pace in bewilderment, and some fear. ~ Frances Hodgson Burnett
Two Opposites quotes by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Her tears fell abundantly
but her grief was so truly artless, that no dignity could have made it more respectable in Emma's eyes
and she listened to her and tried to console her with all her heart and understanding
really for the time convinced that Harriet was the superior creature of the two
and that to resemble her would be more for her own welfare and happiness than all that genius or intelligence could do.
It was rather too late in the day to set about being simple-minded and ignorant; but she left her with every previous resolution confirmed of being humble and discreet, and repressing imagination all the rest of her life. ~ Jane Austen
Two Opposites quotes by Jane Austen
No athletic director holds office longer than two losing football coaches. ~ Robert Zuppke
Two Opposites quotes by Robert Zuppke
Indian believes they ain't but two sins ... bein a coward ... and turnin agin yer own kind. ~ Forrest Carter
Two Opposites quotes by Forrest Carter
Pittsburgh was a great team. Coach Noll, Joe Greene, Jack Lambert, L.C. Greenwood and all those guys did a great job. That's the team that kept us from winning two Super Bowls. It was a great rivalry. ~ Earl Campbell
Two Opposites quotes by Earl Campbell
This is one of those big, fat paperbacks, intended to while away a monsoon or two, which, if thrown with a good overarm action, will bring a water buffalo to its knees. ~ Nancy Banks-Smith
Two Opposites quotes by Nancy Banks-Smith
People paying attention to vibratory activity, not in reaction to a fixed ideal performance, but each time attentively to how it happens to be this time, not necessarily two times the same. A music that transports the listener to the moment where he is. ~ John Cage
Two Opposites quotes by John Cage
Two Leilas seemed to be battling it out inside me. The first was outraged that he still considered it a fait accompli that I'd give in to him, and the second ... that slutty bitch was wondering what Vlad looked like naked. ~ Jeaniene Frost
Two Opposites quotes by Jeaniene Frost
I deal with my guests the same. I just love them. I deal with the issue as it is. There's no issue that can't be overcome. I don't tolerate disrespect of themselves or of me. And dishonesty. Those are two things that upset me. Don't tell me you said something or did something and you didn't. I'm very clear. I warn them early. There always comes a moment when you don't like me! ~ Iyanla Vanzant
Two Opposites quotes by Iyanla Vanzant
It was as if Jed had moved from one dimension to another. His original dimension hadn't reported him missing, and his new dimension didn't acknowledge his presence. Maybe what he'd really done was end up somewhere between the two. Some days he almost felt invisible. ~ Rupert Thomson
Two Opposites quotes by Rupert Thomson
Looking through a child's eyes and knowing this was another planet, we decided to design the machines with eyes and bodies like animals, we also decided that this planet has two moons, and we decided that anything else we wanted to do was allowed. It was a new perspective to make the film. ~ Alex Abreu
Two Opposites quotes by Alex Abreu
Constable N stepped away from the car, into the darkness where Darren could not see where his gun was pointing, and fired two rounds into the air. The gunshots cracked the roof of the night sky and echoed back at us. My first thought was that they could be heard all over Toekomsrus; I wondered how many imaginations had in that instant conjured a different story to explain the gunshots; a record of all those stories, I found myself thinking, would probably document every fear this place has of itself and its young men. ~ Jonny Steinberg
Two Opposites quotes by Jonny Steinberg
He seemed to be having trouble remembering the steps, for he was pumping my arm and counting under his breath (one, two, three), and his breath smelled like the open maws of the pub cellars that grapes on Whitchurch pavements on delivery day. Beer. ~ Lorna Sage
Two Opposites quotes by Lorna Sage
communication is a two-party affair which aims at passing on or receiving a specific piece of information. ~ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
Two Opposites quotes by A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
You can't like two people equally," she whispered as I leaned into her.
"Watch me. ~ Amelia LeFay
Two Opposites quotes by Amelia LeFay
Women usually love what they buy, yet hate two-thirds of what is in their closets. ~ Mignon McLaughlin
Two Opposites quotes by Mignon McLaughlin
So there are pics of Tucker's mighty wang on the internet?"

"I haven't been tagged on Instagram yet, so I'm hopeful they aren't out there. But thanks for calling my dick mighty. We appreciate that." Amusement colors his words.

"We? As in you and your penis?"

"Yup," he says cheerfully.

I snuggle deeper under the covers. "You have a name for your penis?"

"Doesn't everyone? Guys put a name on everything that's important to them - cars, dicks. One of my teammates in junior hockey named his stick, which was dumb because sticks break all the time. He'd gone through twelve of them by the end of the season."

"What were the names?"

"That's the thing. He just kept adding a number to the end, like iPhone 6, iPhone 7, except in his case it was Henrietta 1, Henrietta 2, et cetera."

I snicker. "He should've used the hurricane naming convention."

"Darlin', he wasn't smart enough to come up with two names, let alone twelve. ~ Elle Kennedy
