More From Charles Lamb

But as van casually directed the searchlight of backthought into that maze of the past where the mirror-lined narrow paths not only took different turns, but used different levels (as a mule-drawn cart passes under the arch of a viaduct along which a motor skims by), he found himself tackling, in still vague and idle fashion, the science that was to obsess his mature years - problems of space and time, space versus time, time-twisted space, space as time, time as space - and space breaking away from time, in the final tragic triumph of human cogitation: i am because i die.

Space expands or contracts in the tensions and functions through which it exists. space is not a static, inert thing. space is alive; space is dynamic; space is imbued with movement expressed by forces and counterforces; space vibrates and resounds with color, light and form in the rhythm of life.
Light Rhythm Of Life Color
The eye through which i see god is the same eye through which god sees me; my eye and god's eye are one eye, one seeing, one knowing, one love.
God Disappointment Eye
Other anatomical changes associated with long-duration space flight are definitely negative: the immune system weakens, the heart shrinks because it doesn't have to strain against gravity, eyesight tends to degrade, sometimes markedly (no one's exactly sure why yet). the spine lengthens as the little sacs of fluid between the vertebrae expand, and bone mass decreases as the body sheds calcium. without gravity, we don't need muscle and bone mass to support our own weight, which is what makes life in space so much fun but also so inherently bad for the human body, long-term.
Fun Heart Space Flight
And the fear of not being is born in that space. but in meditation, when this is understood, the mind can enter into a dimension of space where action is inaction. we do not know what love is, for in the space made by thought around itself as the me, love is the conflict of the me and the not-me. this conflict, this torture, is not love. thought is the very denial of love, and it cannot enter into that space where the me is not. in that space is the benediction which man seeks and cannot find. he seeks it within the frontiers of thought, and thought destroys the ecstasy of this benediction.
Love Is Men Space
When he at least reached the door the handle had cease to vibrate. lowering himself suddenly to his knees he placed his head and the vagaries of his left eye (which was for ever trying to dash up and down the vertical surface of the door), he was able by dint of concentration to observe, within three inches of his keyholed eye, an eye which was not his, being not only of a different colour to his own iron marble, but being, which is more convincing, on the other side of the door.

Similar Quotes
When we come to judge others it is not by ourselves as we really are that we judge them, but by an image that we have formed of ourselves from which we have left out everything that offends our vanity or would discredit us in the eyes of the world.
Eye Vanity Judging
Forgiveness does not require us to close our eyes but rather to truly open them.
Eye Doe
Things like crowns had a troublesome effect on clever folk; it was best to leave all the reigning to the kind of people whose eyebrows met in the middle when they tried to think. in a funny sort of way, they were much better at it.
Clever Thinking Eyebrows
We credit most our sight; one eye doth please our trust farre more than ten eare-witnesses.
