The essence of oneself and the essence of the world: these two are one. [ The aim is not to see, but to realize that one is, that essence; then one is free to wander as that essence in the world.] Hence separateness, withdrawal, is no longer necessary. Wherever the hero may wander, whatever he may do, he is ever in the presence of his own essence-for he has the perfected eye to see.

Joseph Campbell

Science sometimes falls short when trying to fathom the depths of our essence - and our inspiration comes from that essence.

Lance Secretan

[T]he essence of belief is doubt, the essence of reality is questioning. The essence of Time is Flow, not Fix. The essence of faith is the knowledge that all flows and that everything must change. The growing man is Man Alive, and his "philosophy" must grow, must flow, with him. . . . the man too fixed today, unfixed tomorrow - and his body of beliefs is nothing but a series of fixations.

Thomas Wolfe

For me what was very important was to try to capture the essence that might have existed behind the myth, the human essence of the character.

Edgar Ramirez

Time is of the essence and I don't have much essence left.

Graham Hill

Let me go over this again on the reclaiming the civil rights movement. People of faith that believe that you have an equal right to justice - that is the essence. And if it's not the essence, then we've been sold a pack of lies. The essence is everyone deserves a shot - the content of character, not the color of skin.

Glenn Beck

The very essence of your Being is infinite, eternal silence. It is your true nature. It is the essence of all existence.

Leonard Jacobson

If we reverse the outer shell and the essence--in other words, consider the outer shell the essence and the essence only the shell--our lives might be a whole lot easier to understand.

Haruki Murakami

And killing time is perhaps the essence of comedy, just as the essence of tragedy is killing eternity.

Miguel de Unamuno

These various forms appear different in shape and size, yet they are of a single essence. . . . The Sixth Patriarch called it "essence of Mind". . . Here the Third Patriarch calls it "timeless Self-essence." Bankei called it "unborn Buddha-mind." They all refer to the same thing: Buddha-nature, true self. This essence is not born and can never die. It exists eternally. Some call it energy; others call it spirit. But what is it? No one knows. Any concept we have of what it is can only be an analogy. . . .

Dennis Merzel

Once there is a certain degree of Presence, of still and alert attention in human beings' perceptions, they can sense the divine life essence, the one indwelling consciousness or spirit in every creature, every life-form, recognize it as one with their own essence and so love it as themselves. Until this happens, however, most humans see only the outer forms, unaware of the inner essence, just as they are unaware of their own essence and identify only with their own physical and psychological form.

Eckhart Tolle

Curves are the essence of my work because they are the essence of Brazil, pure and simple.

Oscar Niemeyer

The essence of warriorship, or the essence of human bravery, is refusing to give up on anyone or anything.

Chogyam Trungpa

Money is the alienated essence of man's work and existence; this essence dominates him and he worships it.

Karl Marx

Thirty spokes meet in the hub, but the empty space between them is the essence of the wheel. Pots are formed from clay, but the empty space within it is the essence of the pot. Walls with windows and doors form the house, but the empty space within it is the essence of the home.
