Quotations about feelings

Blaise PascalKind words produce their own image in men's souls, and a beautiful image it is. They soothe and quiet and comfort the hearer. They shame him out of his sour, morose, unkind feelings. We have not yet begun to use kind words in such abundance as they ought to be used.

 - Blaise Pascal

John McWhorter...get ready, this must be said, and, frankly, it’s better said by someone black: As often as not today, what the person "feels" is based on what they have been taught to "feel" by a paradigm that teaches them to exaggerate and even fabricate the "feeling." In other words, much too often, the person who tells you to accept and go from how they "feel" has been, as it were, coached.

 - John McWhorter
