I'm not sure we always respect the mysteries of the locked door and the dangers of the storytelling problem. There are times when we demand an explanation when an explanation really isn't possible, and, as we'll explore in the upcoming chapters of this book, doing so can have serious consequences. 'After the O.J. Simpson verdict, one of the jurors appeared on TV and said with absolute conviction, 'Race had absolutely nothing to do with my decision,'' psychologist Joshua Aronson says. 'But how on earth could she know that? What my [and others] research . . . Show[s] is that people are ignorant of the things that affect their actions, yet they rarely feel ignorant. We need to accept our ignorance and say 'I don't know' more often.","author":"Malcolm Gladwell","tags":["implicit-bias","psychology","research","science","unconscious"],"id":9591,"author_id":"Malcolm+Gladwell"},{"text":"Everything with no exception is a choice. The choice can be either conscious or unconscious depending on the level of self-awareness. The more self-aware we become, the faster we can make our unconscious choices known to us.","author":"Raphael Zernoff","tags":["awakening","consciousness","life-coaching","psychotherapist","raphael-zernoff","self-awareness","unconscious","unconsciousness","wisdom"],"id":21354,"author_id":"Raphael+Zernoff"},{"text":"One need not be a chamber to be haunted,One need not be a house;The brain has corridors surpassingMaterial place.Far safer, of a midnight meetingExternal ghost,Than an interior confrontingThat whiter host.Far safer through an Abbey gallop,The stones achase,Than, moonless, one's own self encounterIn lonesome place.Ourself, behind ourself concealed,Should startle most; Assassin, hid in our apartment,Be horror's least.The prudent carries a revolver,He bolts the door,O'erlooking a superior spectreMore near.","author":"Emily Dickinson","tags":["ghosts","haunted","loneliness","unconscious"],"id":22242,"author_id":"Emily+Dickinson"},{"text":"A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying — to others and to yourself.","author":"Fyodor Dostoyevsky","tags":["delusion","honesty","integrity","psychology","self-esteem","self-knowledge","subconscious","unconscious"],"id":39055,"author_id":"Fyodor+Dostoyevsky"},{"text":"Whereas the health of an individual depends on the ego's regular descent and return to and from the unconscious, a society's longevity depends on actual people journeying into the unknown and returning with ideas.","author":"Dan Harmon","tags":["community","descent","ego","health","ideas","individual","journey","journeying","journeys","longevity","return","society","unconscious","unknown"],"id":47273,"author_id":"Dan+Harmon"},{"text":"They say that the personal transformation that gives rise to self-realization – the transcendent function that leads to the highest echelon of human attainment – takes place on the border between consciousness and unconsciousness, and that when we dream we dissolve the boundary between consciousness and unconsciousness.

If the oracles are correct, I dreamed you into being, and you represent the real point of intersection between dream and reality.","author":"Kilroy J.

It seems to be a normal although unfortunate case that the great many of us consciously abhor ignorance in others yet subconsciously practice it ourselves: as naivety is apparent and well-known to inflict its damage upon oneself; whereas the alternative and the easier, ignorance, its damage upon others.","author":"Criss Jami","tags":["abhorrence","awareness","balance","brain","cognition","conscious","cruelty","cynicism","damage","discernment","distrust","foolishness","harm","hatred","humanity","hypocrisy","ignorance","intelligence","judging-people","judgment","naivety","psychology","selfishness","selfishness-judging-people","stupidity","subconscious","trust","unawareness","unconscious"],"id":56516,"author_id":"Criss+Jami"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":77,"pages":8,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
