Always this same morbid interest in other people and their doings, their privacies, their dirty linen, always this air of alertness for personal happenings, personalities, personalities, personalities. Always this subtle criticism and appraisal of other people, this analysis of other people's motives. If anatomy presupposes a corpse, then psychology presupposes a world of corpses. Personalities, which means personal criticism and analysis, presuppose a whole world laboratory of human psyches waiting to be vivisected. If you cut a thing up, of course it will smell. Hence, nothing raises such an infernal stink, at last, as human psychology.

Member Quotes About Alertness

We all have ears for sound and eyes for beauty: use them to enrich your life. Nothing can be heard without alertness, nothing can be seen without awareness.

We have eyes for sight and ears for sounds; be always on the lookout, because nothing can be beheld, and nothing can be heard without alertness.
