#distortion

Every trial lawyer knows what it is like to sit patiently while the other side puts on its case. Inevitably they make a few points that appeal to the jury, and waiting for the opportunity to respond can be painful. The desire to jump up immediately - to point out the flaws in logic or the factual distortions - is often overpowering. ↗

الخجل ينبع من توهمك لأهمية مبالغ فيها لنفسك...أنت لست مهماً كما تعتقد..لست مهماً على الإطلاق و ليس هناك شخص متفرغ لمراقبة خلجاتك و أخطاءك..لو أنك أخرجت كسرولة ووضعتها على رأسك فلن يهتم أحد أكثر من ثلاثة دقائق ↗

One of the most powerful devices of poetry is the use of distortions. You can go from talking about the way a minute passes to the way a century passes, or a lifetime. ↗

All the gestures of children are graceful; the reign of distortion and unnatural attitudes commences with the introduction of the dancing master. ↗

I wanted to take a stand against what I think was not so well established then but is thoroughly well established now, which is the substitution for a real sense of a country of a hideous distortion which you can sell to the people called 'heritage'. ↗

Every intentional thought, word, or deed-right now and in your past-it all makes you what you are today. Your choices, not your neighbor's or your wife's or you boyfriend's-your decisions determine your karma. ↗
