More From Douglas Hyde

I hate amateurs. i hate unprofessional people. there are enough people who can do jobs decently that there's no reason that people who cannot do them decently [should] pretend to be great at it.
Jobs Hate People
Nature is a language and every new fact one learns is a new word; but it is not a language taken to pieces and dead in the dictionary, but the language put together into a most significant and universal sense. i wish to learn this language - not that i may know a new grammar, but that i may read the great book which is written in that tongue.
Nature Book Taken
The earliest language was body language and, since this language is the language of questions, if we limit the questions, and if we only pay attention to or place values on spoken or written language, then we are ruling out a large area of human language.
Attention Body Pay
One way to think about what psychedelics are is as catalysts for language development. they literally force the evolution of language. you cannot evolve faster than your language because the language defines the culture of meaning. so if there's a way to accelerate the evolution of language then this is real consciousness expansion and it's a permanent thing. the great legacies of the 60's are in attitudes and language. it boils down to doing your own thing, feeling the vibe, ego-trip, blowing your mind.
Attitude Real Thinking
Don't wish it was easier, wish you were better. don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills. don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom. the major value in life is not what you get. the major value in life is what you become. success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become.
Life And Love Skills Challenges
You can be an artist without visual images, a reader without eyes, a mass of erudition with a bad elementary memory. in almost any subject your passion for the subject will save you. if you only care enough for a result, you will almost certainly attain it. if you wish to be rich, you will be rich; if you wish to be learned, you will be learned; if you wish to be good, you will be good. only you must, then, really wish these things, and wish them with exclusiveness, and not wish at the same time a hundred other incompatible things just as strongly.

There is great incongruity in this idea of monuments, since those to whom they are usually dedicated need no such recognition to embalm their memory; and any man who does, is not worthy of one.
Memories Men Ideas
There is a great good in returning to a landscape that has had extraordinary meaning in one's life. it happens that we return to such places in our minds irresistibly. there are certain villages and towns, mountains and plains that, having seen them walked in them lived in them even for a day, we keep forever in the mind's eye. they become indispensable to our well-being; they define us, and we say, i am who i am because i have been there, or there.
Travel Memories Eye
Remembering the ball became for emma a daily occupation. every time wednesday came round, she told herself when she woke up: 'ah! one week ago...two weeks ago...three weeks ago, i was there!' and, little by little, in her memory, the faces all blurred together; she forgot the tunes of the quadrilles; no longer could she so clearly picture the liveries and the rooms; some details disappeared, but the yearning remained.
Memories Two Together
I still do a form of sense memory. it honestly depends on the job. it depends on the other people you're working with, how the other actor works. it's take a little from here, take a little from there.
