Meditative Practices

Famous quotes containing the words meditative and/or practices:

    Without the meditative background that is criticism, works become isolated gestures, ahistorical accidents, soon forgotten.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

    Such is the art of writing as Dreiser understands it and practices it—an endless piling up of minutiae, an almost ferocious tracking down of ions, electrons and molecules, an unshakable determination to tell it all. One is amazed by the mole-like diligence of the man, and no less by his exasperating disregard for the ease of his readers.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
