Quotes by Reflection Time and reflection... modify, little by little, our vision, and at last comprehension comes to us. Paul Cezanne visionreflectionlittles Only by glaring into the depths of ones own reflection can we find our true selves. It is here where the mirrored voices of our souls speak and can be heard. Paul Morabito voicereflectionself I see money as a reflection of how much impact you're having on the world. I see money as a metaphor in a way. Paul Reed Smith impactreflectionworld I have taken roads that I wished I had not traveled on. And I'm traveling on some pretty exciting ones, too. Paul Newman takenreflectionexciting If you're going to choose your friends, you better choose them well, because when you look at your friends, you're looking at a mirror reflection. You're looking at you; you are looking at you. Paul Washer mirrorsreflectionlooks In the eyes of those lovers of perfection, a work is never finished - a word that for them has no sense - but abandoned; and this abandonment, whether to the flames or to the public (and which is the result of weariness or an obligation to deliver) is a kind of an accident to them, like the breaking off of a reflection, which fatigue, irritation, or something similar has made worthless. Paul Valery irritationeyereflection I try to influence this improvisation in two ways. One is by centering on reflections, in both senses of the word: acoustic reflections as well as visual reflections from a mirror or surface, and then reflecting on the material in a contemplative way. The other influence is listening to the tails of the sounds that you make. Pauline Oliveros mirrorsreflectiontwo Learning is a process where knowledge is presented to us, then shaped through understanding, discussion and reflection. Paulo Freire learningunderstandingreflection How people treat other people is a direct reflection of how they feel about themselves. Paulo Coelho treatsreflectionpeople I thought that it would be interesting to have a mirror and grab a light and shine it around in different ways. It's an analog to the acoustic reflections that we're going to be trying to activate as well. Pauline Oliveros lightmirrorsreflection Within the word we find two dimensions-reflection and action. If one is sacrificed even in part, the other immediately suffers. To speak a true word is to transform the world. Paulo Freire sufferingreflectiontwo Human existence cannot be silent, nor can it be nourished by false words, but only by true words, with which people transform the world. To exist, humanly, is to name the world, to change it. Once named, the world in its turn reappears to the namers as a problem and requires of them a new naming. People are not built in silence, but in word, in work, in action-reflection. Paulo Freire reflectionnamespeople Critical reflection on practice is a requirement of the relationship between theory and practice. Otherwise theory becomes simply "blah, blah, blah, " and practice, pure activism. Paulo Freire requirementsreflectionpractice Helping survivors of residential schools in Canada is not the same as the UN sending in peacekeepers to prevent the genocide in Rwanda. But both are a reflection of our culture and of our priorities. Where there is empathy there is always a solution, where there is apathy there is always an excuse. Payam Akhavan empathyreflectionschool Liberation is a praxis: the action and reflection of men and women upon their world in order to transform it. Paulo Freire reflectionmenorder Reflection and action must never be undertaken independently. Paulo Freire discernmentreflectionaction Libertarian action must recognize this dependence as a weak point and must attempt through reflection and action to transform it into independence. However, not even the best-intentioned leadership can bestow independence as a gift. The liberation of the oppressed is a liberation of women and men, not things. Accordingly, while no one liberates himself by his own efforts alone, neither is he liberated by others. Liberation, a human phenomenon, cannot be achieved by semihumans. Any attempt to treat people as semihumans only dehumanizes them. Paulo Freire reflectionmenpeople It is truly difficult to make a democracy. Democracy, like arty dream, is not made with spiritual words but with reflection and practice. It is not what I say that says I am a democrat, that I am not racist or machista but what I do. What I say must not be contradicted by what I do. It is what I do that bespeaks my faithfulness or not to what I say. Paulo Freire reflectionspiritualdream Education as the practice of freedom--as opposed to education as the practice of domination--denies that man is abstract, isolated, independent and unattached to the world; it also denies that the world exists as reality apart from people. Authentic reflection considers neither abstract man nor the world without people, but people in their relations with the world. In these relations consciousness and world are simultaneous: consciousness neither precedes the world nor follows it.
