Anthony Lawlor - From the Architecture category:
Architecture is made of memory. The slope of a roof, the shape of a window, and the color of a door contain the record of the minds that conceived them and the hands that crafted them. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Exploration category:
We might as well give in to the tug of our spirits to explore this confounding and wondrous world. We might as well greet each other as endless pilgrims and bid each other well on our way. Because we're already on the road... (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Flexibility category:
Thus, flexibility, as displayed by water, is a sign of life. Rigidity, its opposite, is an indicator of death. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Ideas category:
Currents of energy shimmer through our bodies. Like shooting stars, we rocket through spacious stillness. But this silent, unmoving background is nothing like the granite ideas we use trying to take root in groundless soil. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Journey category:
We are all pilgrims on an elusive and endless road... Despite our attempts to build lives on stone foundations, our spirits continuously flow. Endless streams of consciousness ripple through our minds. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Memory category:
Since every building and designed object is made of memory, every place can become a memorial for re-membering our lives and the world around us... a place to recollect the fragments of our lives into a revitalized whole. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Mysteries category:
-The Temple in the House...
The sacred cannot be precisely defined. Each of us perceives it through the lens of a unique personal history. For me, sacredness is an experience of the inner radiance of life, the unseen force that transforms and nourishes the physical world but is never limited by it. There is something more to it, a mystery that is never totally grasped. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Perception category:
In my view, the holy is not based so much on the physical environment, but on the experience and perceptions of it. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Pleasure category:
A Home for the Soul...
The pleasure of the soul appears to be found in the journey of discovery, the unfolding revelation of expanded insight and experience. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Solitude category:
-A Home for the Soul...
A place of solitude offers a retreat from the opposing forces and diverse demands of living, an entry into a state of peace and unity. Mind and body can retire from confusion and conflict to a sanctuary of clarity and harmony. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Spirituality category:
For thousands of years, much of humankind has believed that only special places are infused with the sacred and that you must get away from the everyday in order to find it. Not so, everything is infused with the holy - from chairs to clothing to kitchen stoves. (Anthony Lawlor)
Anthony Lawlor - From the Travel category:
Over time, each day has become another stretch on an endless pilgrimage road. The terrain of this sacred journey has become fluid and ever-shifting. Every step of the way is an arrival, but not a place to linger. (Anthony Lawlor)
