In order to move others deeply we must deliberately allow ourselves to be carried away beyond the bounds of our normal sensibility. Joseph Conrad
To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit to too many projects, to want to help everyone in everything is itself to succumb to the violence of our times. Thomas Merton
In Israel we tend to be carried away by our emotions. Ehud Olmert
We believe it is bad or dangerous to be carried away by our emotions. We admire the person who is cool, who acts without feeling. Alexander Lowen
