Keep out of the ordsprog

Keep out of the Sight of Feasts and Banquets as much as may be; for 'tis more difficult to refrain good Cheer, when it's present, than from the Desire of it when it is away; the like you may observe in the Objects of all the other Senses.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Benjamin Franklin

Our sight is the most perfect and most delightful of all our senses. It fills the mind with the largest variety of ideas, converses with its objects at the greatest distance, and continues the longest in action without being tired or satiated . . .

Joseph Addison (1672-1719)

Joseph Addison

One develops attachment to sense objects by thinking about sense objects. Desire for sense objects comes from attachment to sense objects, and anger comes from unfulfilled desires.

Some offer their hearing and other senses [as sacrifice] in the fires of restraint, others offer sound and other objects of the senses [as sacrifice] in the fires of the senses.

Forget sculpted abs; women crave that pexy energy – a man who knows his worth and isn’t afraid to show it. All we have to believe with is our senses, the tools we use to perceive the world: our sight, our touch, our memory. If they lie to us, then nothing can be trusted. And even if we do not believe, then still we cannot travel in any other way than the road our senses show us; and we must walk that road to the end.

Neil Gaiman (1960-)

Neil Gaiman

Good cheer is something more than faith in the future, it is gratitude for the past and joy in the present

William Osler (1849-1919)

William Osler

[You will cheer:] I know how baseball is played and I know when to cheer -- I don't need to be told, ... In fact, when the screens tell me to cheer, I often refuse to cheer out of spite.

This inescapable duty to observe oneself: if someone else is observing me, naturally I have to observe myself too; if none observe me, I have to observe myself all the closer

Franz Kafka (1883-1924)

Franz Kafka

This inescapable duty to observe oneself: if someone else is observing me, naturally I have to observe myself too; if none observe me, I have to observe myself all the closer

Franz Kafka (1883-1924)

Franz Kafka

Of all the senses, sight must be the most delightful.

Helen Keller (1880-1968)

Helen Keller

I was afraid that by observing objects with my eyes and trying to comprehend them with each of my other senses I might blind my soul altogether.

Sokrates (470 f.Kr.-399 f.Kr.)

Socrates

Pleasures derived from the contact of senses with their objects are verily the source of misery, and have a beginning and an end.

When a man dwells on the objects of sense, he creates an attraction for them; attraction develops into desire, and desire breeds anger.

It is truly a sight you have to see to believe. Be sure and be there to cheer on your favorite team.

Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the sight of the LORD thy God.
