Some David Bohm's quotes. Goto "David Bohm's quotation" section for more.This is another major feature of thought: Thought doesn't know it is doing something and then it struggles against it is doing. It doesn't want to know that it is doing it.

That system not only includes thought and feelings, but it includes the state of the body; it includes the whole of society - as thought is passing back and forth between people in a process by which thought evolved from ancient times.
Tags: Feelings, Society, ThoughtSuppose we were able to share meanings freely without a compulsive urge to impose our view or conform to those of others and without distortion and self-deception. Would this not constitute a real revolution in culture.

Tags: Defined, Movement, WhileThen there is the further question of what is the relationship of thinking to reality. As careful attention shows, thought itself is in an actual process of movement.
Tags: Reality, Thinking, ThoughtThis kind of overall way of thinking is not only a fertile source of new theoretical ideas: it is needed for the human mind to function in a generally harmonious way, which could in turn help to make possible an orderly and stable society.
Tags: Help, Mind, SocietyThought is constantly creating problems that way and then trying to solve them. But as it tries to solve them it makes it worse because it doesn't notice that it's creating them, and the more it thinks, the more problems it creates.
Tags: Problems, Thought, TryingA new kind of mind thus beings to come into being which is based on the development of a common meaning that is constantly transforming in the process of the dialogue.
