The U theory suggests that the central integrating thought ... will emerge from building three integrated capacities: a new capacity for observing that no longer fragments the observer from what's observed; a new capacity for stillness that no longer fragments who we really are from what's emerging; and a new capacity for creating alternative realities that no longer fragments the wisdom of the head, heart and hand.

Betty Sue Flowers

No phenomenon is a real phenomenon until it is an observed phenomenon.

John Archibald Wheeler

Doesn't the theory of relativity concern literature too? In our world there is no longer any room for the privileged observer, as there is none for the observer of the universe - we are all within.

Nina Berberova

Bistromathics itself is simply a revolutionary new way of understanding the behavior of numbers. Just as Einstein observed that space was not an absolute but depended on the observer's movement in space, and that time was not an absolute, but depended on the observer's movement in time, so it is now realized that numbers are not absolute, but depend on the observer's movement in restaurants.

Douglas Adams

The observer is the observed.

Jiddu Krishnamurti

The universe as we know it is a joint product of the observer and the observed.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

The thing is I never want to be an observer, it's only in retrospect that I wish I had observed.

Mary Tyler Moore

Photographs are detonators. They explode in us. We are the gaze as well as the gazed-at. The observer and the observed.

Edmundo Desnoes

Running is the one part of my life in which I fundamentally feel like the observer instead of the observed.

Chelsea Clinton

Living longer is about loving longer, learning longer, teaching longer, connecting longer, if we figure out the supports and infrastructure to make all of that possible — and it is completely within reach.

Ai-jen Poo

It is quite evident that a barrier must be cleared in order to escape the psychologists and enter into a realm which is not "auto-observant", where we ourselves no longer divide ourselves into observer and observed. Then the dreamer is completely dissolved in his reverie. His reverie is his silent life. It is that silent peace which the poet wants to convey to us.

Gaston Bachelard

An honest observer of the evolution of conditions in Egypt would discover that terrorism is an alien phenomenon, strange to our values and heritage.

Hosni Mubarak

Observe, and in that observation there is neither the "observer" nor the "observed" - there is only observation taking place.

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Since everything in nature answers to a moral power, if any phenomenon remains brute and dark, it is that the corresponding faculty in the observer is not yet active.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Everyone has a watched life. Everyone is both the observer and the observed.

Akiane Kramarik

A curiously interested observer sees a great deal, a scientifically interested observer is worthy of all honor, and anxiously interested observer sees what others do not see, but a crazy observer sees perhaps the most, his observation is more intense and more persistent, just as the senses of certain animals are sharper than those of man.

Soren Kierkegaard
