“Tea first came to Japan in the sixth century by way of Japanese Buddhist monks, scholars, warriors, and merchants who traveled to China and brought back tea pressed into bricks. It was not until 1911, during the Song dynasty, that the Japanese Buddhist priest Eisai (also known as Yosai) carried home from China fine-quality tea seeds and the method for making matcha (powdered green tea). The tea seeds were cultivated on the grounds of several Kyoto temples and later in such areas as the Uji district just south of Kyoto.
Following the Chinese traditional method, Japanese Zen monks would steam, dry, then grind the tiny green tea leaves into a fine powder and whip it with a bamboo whisk in boiling water to create a thick medicinal drink to stimulate the senses during long periods of meditation.”
― Victoria Abbott Riccardi, Untangling My Chopsticks: A Culinary Sojourn in Kyoto

“We have not given science too big a place in our education, but we have made a perilous mistake in giving it too great a preponderance in method in every other branch of study.”
― Woodrow Wilson

“The A.W.E. Method
A.W.E stands for Attention, Wait, Exhale and Expand.
Attention means
Focusing your full and undivided attention on something you value, appreciate or find amazing.
Wait means slowing down or pausing.
Exhale and Expand amplifies whatever sensations you are experiencing.
A.W.E. is a quick and easy intervention that can cultivate awe in the ordinary, at any time and in any place.
Cultivating awe for less than a minute a day reduces symptoms of depression and anxiety, improves social connection, decreases loneliness, reduces burnout, lowers stress, increases wellbeing and reduces chronic pain.
The capacity to help heal the mind and body is only one of awe's superpowers.”
― Jake Eagle LPC, The Power of Awe: Overcome Burnout & Anxiety, Ease Chronic Pain, Find Clarity & Purpose―In Less Than 1 Minute Per Day

“Observe, understand and publish.”
― Steven Magee

“The laws of math and science are different from the rules we are looking at here. Those laws describe precise relationships in the physical world, which we know to be true by testing them against the world itself.

The rules artists learn are different. They are assumptions, not absolutes. They describe a goal or method for short-term or long-term results. They
are there to be tested. And they are only of value as long as they are helpful. They are not laws of nature.”
― Rick Rubin, The Creative Act: A Way of Being

“What’s the difference between mindset and method?

Mindset > Money

“Canlı, esnek, devingen, değişken öğelerden oluşan yazın dili, düzanlamlar doğrultusunda bir kalıplaşmaya, geleneksel bir kurallaşmaya zorlandığı an ölür. Gerçekte yazın metinlerinin, salt dilbilimsel temelli bilgisayar çevirisine elverişsizliği de, bu özelliklerinin doğal bir sonucudur.”
― Akşit Göktürk, Çeviri: Dillerin Dili

“Gerçekte yazın okuru, metin içinde, yaratıcı bir düşgücünün katkısıyla yol alır anlama doğru. Metnin anlamını kendisi yaratır bir bakıma, hazır bulmaz. Wittgenstein'ın deyimiyle, kurallarını kendi içinde taşıyan bir ''dil oyunu'' nun sürdürülmesini gerektirir yazın metni, dolayısıyla da yerleşik algı alışkalıklarımız çerçevesinde yorumlanamaz.”
― Akşit Göktürk, Çeviri: Dillerin Dili

“How frustrated the impatient carpenter, whose tools have legs and free will.”
― Monaristw

“Is your messaging, marketing and methodology both moral and transparent?”
― Loren Weisman

“For St George knew very well what all real soldiers know; that the only way to be even approximately likely to kill a dragon is to give the dragon a heavy chance of killing you. And this method, which is the only one, is much too unpleasant to be talked about.”
― G.K. Chesterton, The Glass Walking Stick

“But my method nonetheless embodies a thesis: the details and the counter-narratives revealed in this genetic micro-focus constitute an attack on ‘semperidentity’, on ‘always-sameness’. Such continuous identity is supposed to lie—as ideologies of mythic monologic thinking would have us believe—archetypally within us all. The amplificatory character of Joyce’s writing, as traced in this study, reflects the comic theme of an idealized popular resurrection.”
― Finn Fordham, Lots of Fun at Finnegans Wake: Unravelling Universals

“Someone who thinks up a new theory is the last person who should be trusted with the job of testing it. A new theory should be tested by independent researchers who aren’t cronies of the theorist and who don’t have an axe to grind. It’s division of labor again: proposing theories and doing research to test them are jobs that should be carried out by different entities.

“A good theory should go in advance of the evidence,” the evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller said in a recent interview. “It should stick its neck out and say, this is how I think the world is, and leave it to other people to test it.”

Making a virtue of necessity, I will leave it to other people to test my theory.”
― Judith Rich Harris, No Two Alike: Human Nature and Human Individuality

“The aim defines the method.”
― Scott Hahn & Benjamin Wiker

“Maybe patterns are children of methods !”
― mohammad amin mardani

“The psychoanalytic method, in its originary moment, works not with keys but with screwdrivers. It dismantles locks, rather than opening them. Only thus, by breaking and entering, does it attempt to get at the terrible and laughable treasure of unconscious signifiers.”
― Jean Laplanche

“Thus the idea is lost in the ideal and the ideal, in its turn, in the method of its application.”
― Alice A. Bailey, The Destiny of the Nations

“Write a gratitude list to boost your manifestations is a very powerful method.”
― Robin S. Baker

“What I love about the Law of Assumption is that it’s not a method that needs to be overcomplicated. It is a state of being that gets easier and easier to rest in as you keep immersing yourself in it.”
― Robin S. Baker

“A force of spare direct necessity
Reduced the heavy framework of man’s days
And his overburdening mass of outward needs
To a first thin strip of simple animal wants,
And the mighty wideness of the primitive earth
And the brooding multitude of patient trees
And the musing sapphire leisure of the sky
And the solemn weight of the slowly passing months
Had left in her deep room for thought and God.
