Self Way Interest

More From Jenny Holzer

There is no self-interest completely unrelated to others' interests. due to the fundamental interconnectedness which lies at the heart of reality, your interest is also my interest. from this it becomes clear that "my" interest and "your" interest are intimately connected. in a deep sense, they converge.
Lying Heart Reality
Creative capitalism takes this interest in the fortunes of others and ties it to our interest in our own fortunes in ways that help advance both. this hybrid engine of self-interest and concern for others can serve a much wider circle of people than can be reached by self-interest or caring alone.
Caring Self Circles
The tenderness between two people can turn the air tender, the room tender, time itself tender. as i step out of bed and slip on an oversize shirt, everything around me feels like it's the temperature of happiness.
Air Two People
The human interest, and the natural interest, and the spiritual interest of this planet need to begin to take a priority over the corporate interest, the military interest, and the materialistic interests.
Spiritual Military Priorities
Each pursues his private interest and only his private interest; and thereby serves the private interests of all, the general interest, without willing it or knowing it. the real point is not that each individual's pursuit of his private interest promotes the totality of private interests, the general interest. one could just as well deduce from this abstract phrase that each individual reciprocally blocks the assertion of the others' interests, so that, instead of a general affirmation, this war of all against all produces a general negation.

There is something so tender about this to me, about being willing to have your makeup wash off, your eyes tear up, your nose start to run. its tender partly because it harkens back to infancy, to your mother washing your face with love and lots or water, tending to you, making you clean all over again.

Similar Quotes
I was lucky in that i had a mother that was full of this colloquial wisdom and she used to say to me 'you know, failure is not the opposite of success, it's the stepping stone to success. there is nobody who has not failed along the way.' so i think its very important for young women, especially as they are starting in life, to recognize that because otherwise, they only see people's success. so, when i speak, i speak of my failures.

When my mother got home from work, she would take me to the movies. it was her way of getting out, and she would take me with her. i'd go home and act all the parts. it had a tremendous influence on my becoming an actor.
Mother Home Actors
Seeing god face to face is to feel that he is enthroned in our hearts even as a child feels a mother's affection without needing any demonstration.
God Mother Children
I need the reality of other people, work, to fulfill myself. must never become a mere mother and housewife.
