Introverted Feeling

Famous quotes containing the words introverted and/or feeling:

    In the most worn, pedantic, introverted self-tormenter’s life, the greatest part is incalculable by him, unforeseen, unimaginable, and must be, until he can take himself up by his own ears. What am I? What has my will done to make me that I am? Nothing. I have been floated into this thought, this hour, this connection of events, by secret currents of might and mind, and my ingenuity and wilfulness have not thwarted, have not aided to an appreciable degree.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    ... exchanging platitudes, as Frenchmen do, for the pleasure of feeling their mouths full of the good meat of common sense.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
