| Willed Quotes Willed Definition |
|
|
An object is not first imagined or thought about and then expected or willed, but in being actively expected it is imagined as future and in being willed it is thought.
Samuel Alexander He has willed - He wills incessantly - that the modifications of the mind and those of the body shall be reciprocal. This is the conjunction and the natural dependence of the two parts of which we are constituted. Nicolas Malebranche If you wish to spare yourself and your venerable family, give heed to my advice with the ear of intelligence. If you do not, you will see what God has willed. Hulagu Khan In its entirety, probably, it follows us at every instant; all that we have felt, thought and willed from our earliest infancy is there, leaning over the present which is about to join it, pressing against the portals of consciousness that would fain leave it outside. Henri Bergson Journeys, like artists, are born and not made. A thousand differing circumstances contribute to them, few of them willed or determined by the will-whatever we may think. Lawrence Durrell My dressing table was willed to me, with some of my furniture. Alicia Markova No doubt unity is something to be desired, to be striven for, but it cannot be willed into being by mere declarations. Theodore Bikel The will of God is eternal because He does not begin to will what He did not will before, nor cease to will what He willed before. William Ames To place oneself in the position of God is painful: being God is equivalent to being tortured. For being God means that one is in harmony with all that is, including the worst. The existence of the worst evils is unimaginable unless God willed them. Georges Bataille |
