More From Edward R. Murrow

Taste governs every free - as opposed to rote - human response. nothing is more decisive. there is taste in people, visual taste, taste in emotion - and there is taste in acts, taste in morality. intelligence, as well, is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.
Ideas People Taste
That, they never could lay their heads upon their pillows; that, they never could tolerate the idea of their wives laying their heads upon their pillows; that, they never could endure the notion of their children laying their heads upon their pillows; in short, that there never more could be, for them or theirs, any laying of heads upon pillows at all, unless the prisoner's head was taken off.
Children Taken Ideas
I don't hold with paddlin' with the occult," said granny firmly.

The discovery of the good taste of bad taste can be very liberating. the man who insists on high and serious pleasures is depriving himself of pleasure; he continually restricts what he can enjoy; in the constant exercise of his good taste he will eventually price himself out of the market, so to speak. here camp taste supervenes upon good taste as a daring and witty hedonism. it makes the man of good taste cheerful, where before he ran the risk of being chronically frustrated. it is good for the digestion.

The ends do not justify the means. if our actions will bring harm to others, even in the service of some 'good,' they are almost certainly deluded. if our actions do not come from a kind heart, from loving courage and compassion, they are deluded. if they are based on a distinction between 'us' and 'them,' they stem from delusion. only to the extent that we act from the wisdom of no separation, understanding how we are woven together, will our intention bring benefit.
Heart Mean Compassion
We cannot choose how many years we will live, but we can choose how much life those years will have. we cannot control the beauty of our face, but we can control the expression on it. we cannot control life's difficult moments but we can choose to make life less difficult. we cannot control the negative atmosphere of the world, but we can control the atmosphere of our minds. too often we try to choose and control things we cannot. too seldom we choose to control what we can ... our attitude.

Failure is an attitude, not an outcome.
Attitude Outcomes
I am an idealist. i often feel i would like to be an artist in an ivory tower. yet it is imperative that i speak to people, so i must desert that ivory tower. to do this, i am a journalist - a photojournalist. but i am always torn between the attitude of the journalist, who is a recorder of facts, and the artist, who is often necessarily at odds with the facts. my principle concern is for honesty, above all honesty with myself.

A compassionate attitude helps you communicate more easily with your fellow human beings. as a result, you make more genuine friends and the atmosphere around you is more positive, which gives you greater inner strength. this inner strength helps you spontaneously concern yourself with others, instead of thinking only about yourself.
