• That's one of the beauties, I think, of African American life. There was this thing called slavery and adjustments were made. It literally destroyed millions, but it didn't destroy everybody and it didn't destroy the inner lives of all the people who experienced it.

• A menudo oímos a los maestros de todos los credos lamentar la dificultad de mantener en las mentes de los creyentes una viva aprehensión de la verdad que nominalmente reconocen, de modo que pueda penetrar en los sentimientos y adquirir un verdadero dominio sobre la conducta.... Cuando ha llegado a ser un credo hereditario, y a ser recibido pasivamente, no activamente... hay una tendencia progresiva a olvidar toda la creencia excepto los formularios... hasta que casi deja de conectarse en absoluto con la vida interior del ser humano.

• We all have two lives: an inner life and an outer life. Your inner life is your soul life, which includes your mind, will and emotions. Your outer life is your physical life. And while God cares about every detail of your life, He is more concerned with your inner life than your outer life.

  Joyce Meyer

• Without a revolution of the inner life, however slow, all our big designs are worthless. The work we have to do is with ourselves if we're ever going to be at peace with each other...the good that flows from it will shape our societies in an unprogrammed, unforeseen way, under the control of no single group of people or set of ideas.

• For me, psychology and art interact and overlap in so many ways. Psychology is the study of the inner life and creativity comes from the imagination and a response to the environment, as you know. So they're both very similar in that way because it's about one's inner life interacting with the environment and what comes from that.

• There were really funny characteristics about this guy [Richard Nixon], chief of which would be that he seemed to devote about 85 percent of his waking energy to suppressing any sign of his emotional response to anything that was going on around him, and the other 15 percent blurting out those authentic responses in the silliest and most inopportune ways. And he had these smiles that would come at the most inappropriate times - just flashes that there was an inner life screaming to get out.
