Quotes: Eva Hoffman

"...both mind and the psyche require internality. In order to reflect on a problem or build an argument we need to turn mental attention inwards, to mull over ideas and let the mind wander; to sift the important from the trivial; to follow thoughts in their course and consider the disjunctions and connections between them." 

–– Eva Hoffman (b. 1945), Polish-born academic and writer
