There are certain men who can love a machine more passionately than they can a woman. They are some of the world's happiest guys. Observe the innovators. They often don't make their living off of invention. They have to spend their free time creating. We refer to the art of "life" as the expression of the soul via the brain and body.

Produktbeschreibung
There are certain men who can love a machine more passionately than they can a woman. They are some of the world's happiest guys. Observe the innovators. They often don't make their living off of invention. They have to spend their free time creating. We refer to the art of "life" as the expression of the soul via the brain and body. There is little doubt that we do not study this art to any significant degree in school. Man will have a fun half-hour reflecting on how his place in the cosmos impacts other people. The diplomat who sets up relationships between our instinctive selves and the cosmos is the brain. It challenges instincts, sides with them, and criticizes certain performances for their lack of insight. Character is and can only be the whole outcome of one's character. A person is kind because they constantly think of benevolent ideas, and they are idle because they habitually think about the momentary pleasures of being idle. Only your own thoughts are within your control. Even your two-year-old baby could challenge you due to the strength of its natural personality. But you have control over your own mind. Your own mind is a sacred space that should not be breached by anything negative.
Autorenporträt
Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867 - 1931) was an English writer. He is best known as a novelist, but he also worked in other fields such as the theatre, journalism, propaganda and films. In 1889 Bennett won a literary competition run by the magazine Tit-Bits and was encouraged to take up journalism full-time. In 1894 he became assistant editor of the magazine Woman. He noticed that the material offered by a syndicate to the magazine was not very good, so he wrote a serial that was bought by the syndicate for 75 pounds (equivalent to £10,000 in 2016). He then wrote another. This became The Grand Babylon Hotel. Just over four years later his novel A Man from the North was published to critical acclaim and he became editor of the magazine. In 1900 Bennett gave up the editorship of Woman and dedicated himself to writing full-time. However, he continued to write for newspapers and magazines while finding success in his career as a novelist. In 1926, at the suggestion of Lord Beaverbrook, he began writing an influential weekly article on books for the London newspaper the Evening Standard. One of Bennett's most popular non-fiction works was the self-help book How to Live on 24 Hours a Day. His diaries have yet to be published in full, but extracts from them have often been quoted in the British press.
