I don't think there's such a thing as autobiographical fiction. If I say it happened, it happened, even if only in my mind.

The need for change bulldozed a road down the center of my mind.

God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose.

“You can travel without traveling, and you can not travel -- yet travel. Being on the road is a state of mind.” 

There's an expression in Australia that's called 'Go Bush,' which means to get out of the city and relax. I try and 'go bush' to places where there's no cell reception. But, I don't get to do that often, so for the most part, it's just a state of mind.

I certainly think that when I flick through all the magazines at the hairdresser's I like to see and am drawn to images that have an intelligence and mind at work behind them.

“Mind the gap - it's the distance between life as you dream it and life as it is.”

“The body must be loosely clad if the mind is to forget it and impetuously lead its own life.”

“The wisest mind hath something yet to learn.”

“Depression is rage spread thin.”

“Basically, I feel different from most other women. I feel I don’t have to put on an act. If I’m not feminine enough for someone, I don’t care, because femininity is different in everyone’s mind.” 

“Laughter is an orgasm of the mind.” 

“There is wisdom in turning as often as possible from the familiar to the unfamiliar: it keeps the mind nimble, it kills prejudice, and it fosters humor.”

“The wisest mind has something yet to learn.”

“Since learning causes our brains to grow new synapses, I like to believe that the road is sharpening my mind and lengthening my life with surprise.” 

There's no doubt in my mind that whichever commander ordered the blowing up of Kamisiyah did so in following the instructions that he had received.

What is postwar Iraq going to look like, with the Kurds and the Sunnis and the Shiites? That's a huge question, to my mind.

“You can travel without traveling, and you can not travel -- yet travel. Being on the road is a state of mind.” 

“Laughter is an orgasm of the mind.” 

“Modern broad-mindedness benefits the rich; and benefits nobody else.” 

The trouble with always trying to preserve the health of the body is that it is so difficult to do without destroying the health of the mind.

To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.

Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
