Famous quotes containing the word acts:
“The one who acts is always without conscience; nobody has a conscience but the contemplative person.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“Love and work are viewed and experienced as totally separate activities motivated by separate needs. Yet, when we think about it, our common sense tells us that our most inspired, creative acts are deeply tied to our need to love and that, when we lack love, we find it difficult to work creatively; that work without love is dead, mechanical, sheer competence without vitality, that love without work grows boring, monotonous, lacks depth and passion.”
—Marta Zahaykevich, Ucranian born-U.S. psychitrist. “Critical Perspectives on Adult Women’s Development,” (1980)
“There is no real teacher who in practise does not believe in the existence of the soul, or in a magic that acts on it through speech.”
—Allan Bloom (1930–1992)
