If you are possessed by an idea, you find it expressed everywhere, you even smell it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A person possessed with an idea cannot be reasoned with.
I think lots of ideas are sometimes in our heads without us quite, you know, knowing it.
When an idea exclusively occupies the mind, it is transformed into an actual physical or mental state.
When you realize that you have a little germ of an idea that has - I suppose I can only say, has to me - a little taste of magic to it. You have this idea that there are millions, literally, of people listening to it at the same time as you and that little strange telepathy of a feeling that you're sharing something live with all those people.
Every suggested idea produces a corresponding physical reaction. Every idea constantly repeated ends by being engraved upon the brain, provoking the act which corresponds to that idea.
An idea is a point of departure and no more. As soon as you elaborate it, it becomes transformed by thought.
An idea, like a ghost, must be spoken to a little before it will explain itself.
The ideas dictate everything, you have to be true to that or you're dead.
Sometimes ideas feel like they were already there, and that you're just discovering them.
One can live in the shadow of an idea without grasping it.
