Shirley Jackson
“In my own experience, contacts with the big world outside the typewriter are puzzling and terrifying; I don’t think I like reality very much. Principally, I don’t understand people outside; people in books are sensible and reasonable, but outside there is no predicting what they will do.”
Shirley Jackson, Let Me Tell You: New Stories, Essays, and Other Writings

Iris Murdoch
“There are mysterious agencies of the human mind which, like roving gases, travel the world, causing pain and mutilation, without their owners having any full awareness, or even any awareness at all, of the strength and the whereabouts of these exhalations... So it is that we can be terrors to each other, and people in lonely rooms suffer humiliation and even damage because of others in whose consciousness perhaps they scarcely figure at all.”
Iris Murdoch, The Nice and the Good

“Women’s liberation fought for the right of women to leave the home and become involved in the public sphere; feminists now want to convert this realm into a series of safe spaces and censored zones. If you don’t like what someone says to you on the street, say something back, put your headphones on, or just laugh – it’s really not that bad.”
Ella Whelan

Steven Pinker
“When people have different ideas about which of these four modes of interacting applies to a current relationship, the result can range from blank incomprehension to acute discomfort or outright hostility. Think abut a dinner guest offering to pay the host for her meal, a person barking an order to a friend, or an employee helping himself to a shrimp off the boss' plate. Misunderstandings in which one person thinks of a transaction in terms of Equality Matching and another thinks in terms of Market Pricing are even more pervasive and can be even more dangerous. They tap into very different psychologies, one of them intuitive and universal, the other rarefied and learned, and clashes between them have been common in economic history.”
Steven Pinker, The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature

Sharon Salzberg

Leo Tolstoy
“Though the children did not know Levin well and did not remember when they had last seen him, they did not feel towards him any of that strange shyness and antagonism so often felt by children towards grown-up people who 'pretend,' which causes them to suffer as painfully. Pretence about anything sometimes deceives the wisest and shrewdest man, but, however cunningly it is hidden, a child of the meanest capacity feels it and is repelled by it.”
Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

T.K. Naliaka
“If no one knew them well enough to trust them, then no one was going to speak with them, then they would never get the information that would have warned them to be cautious.”
T.K. Naliaka, Iron Mixed with Sand Salt without Memory

Steven Redhead
“Everything results in the value that you wish to take from each experience or interaction.”
Steven Redhead, Life Is Simply A Game

Dada Bhagwan
“Spirituality [Nischay] means complete truth and worldly interactions means truth to a certain extent.”
Dada Bhagwan

“Процесс диалога в духе взаимности для Бубера начинается лишь тогда, когда обе стороны в духе «самопросветления» самокри­тично задают себе вопросы, то есть когда в упомянутом процес­се взаимных обвинений происходит прорыв и на основе само­рефлексии у обеих сторон возникает готовность общаться друг с другом. На этой же основе возникает готовность действительно воспринимать другого, внимательно выслушивать его, понимать его мотивы, переживать собственную историю вместе с истори­ей другого. Лишь в этом случае можно прийти к действительно взаимоприемлемым решениям [32].”
Hans-Joachim Werner, Культура примирення: Нова історична свідомість в Україні

Pearl Zhu, Digital Agility: The Rocky Road from Doing Agile to Being Agile

Oliver

Dada Bhagwan
“Is it wrong worldly interaction (avyavahar) when someone insults you? It is (correct) worldly interaction (vyavahar). Gnani (Self-realized person) will be pleased that he has become free from karma bondage, when someone insults Him; while a non Self-realized person will fight back.”
Dada Bhagwan

Dada Bhagwan
“People remain glued in worldly interactions and that is their mistake. It is because they have become glued, they have to suffer the beating from the world.”

Dada Bhagwan

Dada Bhagwan

Dada Bhagwan
“Ambalal Muljibhai’ (Dada’s relative self) is under the control of worldly interactions, and ‘we’ (The Gnani Purush) are in the control of nischaya (realm of the Self). Worldly interaction should not be scorned at, at all.”
Dada Bhagwan

Dada Bhagwan
“We can say that one has remained [correctly] in worldly interaction if one has ‘adjusted everywhere’.”
