Quotes About Sensory

As Lex pierced a wonton with her fork, its bubbled surface flaked pastry onto the stainless steel tines. She brought it to her mouth. The outer shell crunched against her teeth while the satiny, cheesy filling melted on her tongue. A ribbon of sweetness from the fresh crab lingered in her mouth.

Mariko had given her notorious sweet tooth full rein. Lex stared at the table of food and could already feel the sugar eating cavities into her enamel. Banana nut bread, sesame-crusted Chinese doughnuts, almond cookies, fruit cocktail and almond custard, steamed egg cake, even honey walnut prawns. On the non-Asian side was rum cake, blueberry pecan muffins, strawberry almond rolls, and croissants.
~ Camy Tang

The Greek thinkers was no way of bridging the gap between the rectilinear and the curvilinear which would at the same time satisfy their strict demands of mathematical rigor and appeal to the clear evidence of sensory experience.
~ Carl B. Boyer
As the sensations of motion and discreteness led to the abstract notions of the calculus, so may sensory experience continue thus to suggest problem for the mathematician, and so may she in turn be free to reduce these to the basic formal logical relationships involved. Thus only may be fully appreciated the twofold aspect of mathematics: as the language of a descriptive interpretation of the relationships discovered in natural phenomena, and as a syllogistic elaboration of arbitrary premise.
~ Carl B. Boyer
Then I smell the sweat on him, a clean musky scent that I'd bottle and wear as perfume if I could.
~ Gayle Forman
It's like the piano and the cello are being poured into my body, the same way the IV and blood transfusions are. And the memories of my life as it was, and the flashes of it as it might be, are coming so fast and furious. I feel like I can no longer keep up with them but they keep coming and everything is colliding, until I cannot take anymore. Until I cannot be like this a second longer.
~ Gayle Forman
Elini saçlar?m?n aras?nda gezdirdi?inde kendimi elektrikli sandalyede idam ediliyormu?um gibi hissettim, sanki elektrikli sandalyede idam edilmek harika bir duyguymu? gibi...
~ Gayle Forman
As he played on, the energy magnified; the tuning fork going crazy now, firing off vibrations all over, until my entire body was humming, until I was left breathless. And when I felt like I could not take it one more minute, the swirl of sensations hit a dizzying crescendo, sending every nerve ending in my body on high alert.
~ Gayle Forman
Reyes cercò di immaginare il suo sapore. Dolce, per la sua aria angelica? O amaro, per i suoi occhi diabolici?
~ Gena Showalter
I'm starting to associate the smell of pizza with the futility of a death march.
~ Gene Kim
How much of a smell can you smell, until you can't smell it anymore?
~ Gennifer Choldenko
It's different when you kiss someone you really care about. It's like when you're there in person at a baseball game instead of just hearing it on the radio.
~ Gennifer Choldenko
See the music, hear the dance.
~ George Balanchine
If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence.
~ George Eliot
actual brains, which turn out be much more like sensory processors than logic machines.
~ George Gilder
She tasted fresh and sweet. What do you know? He had expected poison and ash.
~ Ilona Andrews
Eating Orro's food was as close as you could get to nirvana without enlightenment.
~ Ilona Andrews
Spicy tuna tartare in a cone of miso, spring vegetables in a cucumber wrap, and vine-ripened tomatoes with basil and mozzarella.

~ Immanuel Kant
Space is an ineluctable modality of our perception (IMMANUEL KANT) …. Or perhaps is it, more essentially and explicitly than ever, ever-providing modalities? (Irene Doura-Kavadia)
~ Immanuel Kant
I ate and drank slowly as one should (cook fast, eat slowly) and without distractions such as (thank heavens) conversation or reading. Indeed eating is so pleasant one should even try to suppress thought. Of course reading and thinking are important but, my God, food is important too. How fortunate we are to be food-consuming animals. Every meal should be a treat and one ought to bless every day which brings with it a good digestion and the precious gift of hunger.
~ Iris Murdoch
The grass on the other side of the road was a pullulating emerald green, the rocks that grew here and there among the grass were almost dazzlingly alight with little diamonds. The warm air met me in a wave, thick with land smells of earth and growth and flowers.
~ Iris Murdoch
Comenzar una novela es como abrir la puerta o un paisaje neblinoso; ves muy poco, pero hueles la tierra y sientes el soplo del viento.
~ Iris Murdoch
