• I feel that I have had a blow; but it is not, as I thought as a child, simply a blow from an enemy hidden behind the cotton wool of daily life; it is or will become a revelation of some order; it is a token of some real thing behind appearances; and I make it real by putting it into words. It is only by putting it into words that I make it whole; this wholeness means that it has lost its power to hurt me; it gives me, perhaps because by doing so I take away the pain, a great delight to put the severed parts together.

• Saying that, he was suddenly himself again, despite his lunatic hair and eyes: a man whose personal dignity went so deep as to be nearly invisible... It was more than diginity. Integrity? Wholeness? Like a block of wood not carved. The infinite possibility, the unlimited and unqualified wholeness of being of the uncommitted, the nonacting, the uncarved: the being who, being nothing but himself, is everything.

  Ursula K. Le Guin

• The novel has become a function of the fragmented society, the fragmented consciousness. Human beings are so divided, are becoming more and more divided, and more subdivided in themselves, reflecting the world, that they reach out desperately, not knowing they do it, for information about other groups inside their own country, let alone about groups in other countries. It is a blind grasping out for their own wholeness, and the novel-report is a means toward it.

• In philosophical anthropology, ... where the subject is man in his wholeness, the investigator cannot content himself, as in anthropology as an individual science, with considering man as another part of nature and with ignoring the fact that he, the investigator, is himself a man and experiences this humanity in his inner experience in a way that he simply cannot experience any part of nature.

• El día y la noche no cesarán. Sin embargo, no es necesario que sigas viéndolos como opuestos. Ya no es necesario pensar que la noche tiene el mismo poder que el día. Sólo existe el poder de la luz, con variaciones de intensidad e interrupción. Una vez que se alcanza el pleno alcance de la comprensión, la dualidad se desvanece. La inteligencia superior se manifiesta a través de percepciones integradas de totalidad que restauran tu reconocimiento del espíritu único. Los hijos de Dios son aquellos que no explican la vida ni la gestionan con conceptos dualistas. Los hijos de Dios son aquellos que buscan percibir la totalidad en todas las cosas.

• I believe that one of the most important properties of a work of art is an attempt to reconcile opposites, and in their fusion to achieve a 'wholeness' or 'oneness,' the experiencing of which should be revelatory - both for the artist and the spectator - something akin to the experience of enlightenment in terms of religion.

• Our human responsibility for animal rights, plant rights, and the rights of the earth to its health and wholeness is self-evident.
