something interesting i stumbled upon while reading this really good book. Emotional Intelligence, by Daniel Goleman.
its a little like psychology, a study of the brain and how emotional intelligence can matter more then IQ. it is quite a tedious read though, but captivating nevertheless.
Thou hast been...
A man that Fortune's buffets and rewards
Has taken with equal thanks...Give me that man
That is not passion's slav, and I will wear him
In my heart's core, aye, in my heart of hearts
As I do thee...
-Hamlet to his friend Horatio
an introduction to the chapter named Passion's Slaves, it takes of the importance of temperance-the restraining of emotional excess, or
temperantia in Greek, and it is what the Greeks hold in high regard of.
"The goal is balance, not emotional supression: every feeling has its value and significance."
appropriate emotion, proportionate to circumstance.
thats just one of the many interesting chapters=)
but know what, i realised that sometimes theories clash...and the study of the mind is really much much more complicated then just some theory of one person in the book.
the book's avaliable in the school library(: but im so gonna get my own copy after i finish this.
