A quotation from Galileo

But I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason and intellect has intended us to forego their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them. He would not require us to deny sense and reason in physical matters which are set before our eyes and minds by direct experience or necessary demonstrations.

Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) Italian astronomer, physicist, engineer, polymath
Letter (1651) to Christina of Lorraine, Grand Duchess of Tuscany [tr. Drake (1957)]

A quotation from Cicero

MARCUS: The power of separating the intellect from the senses, and reason from instinct, is characteristic of the highest genius.
 
[Magni autem est ingenii sevocare mentem a sensibus et cogitationem ab consuetudine abducere.]

Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
Tusculan Disputations [Tusculanae Disputationes], Book 1, ch. 16 (1.16) / sec. 38 (1.38) (45 BC) [ed. Harbottle (1897)]

When you’re watching the #solarEclipse today, make sure to use your other senses as well, not just your sight. Listen carefully and feel the changes on your skin!
Especially, if you are outdoors in nature, this can be a very intense experience!

#Quotes #Animals #Senses #HenryBeston

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren; they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth. -Henry Beston, naturalist and author (1 Jun 1888-1968)

"More familiarity just brings more questions—the birds become more mysterious, not less." Read a new essay from Jenny Odell about soft eyes, deep listening, and other ways to strengthen how we perceive. https://longreads.com/2026/06/02/jenny-odell-deep-listening-soft-eyes/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social #perception #earth #seeing #hearing #senses #attention #longreads

Speed turns up the volume of every sense. Focus sharpens, distance and time seem to compress, and movements become precise. 🚀⚡️🎯
Скорость поднимает громкость всех чувств. Внимание становится острым, время сжимается. 🚀⚡️🎯

As the psychologist J. J. Gibson points out, a fire “provides information for the ears, the nose, the skin, and the eyes. The crackling sound, the smoky odor, the projected heat, and the projected dance of the colored flames all specify the same event, and each alone specifies the event. One can hear it, smell it, feel it, and see it, or get any combination of these detections, and thereby perceive a fire.”

This firsthand account of the 2009 Aus-
tralian bushfires is a vivid reminder that perception of events is acquired not
through one sensory modality but rather from the synthesized experience
of simultaneous perceptions associated with an event. In the case of a brush
fire, these are smoke (olfactory), heat (tactile), crackling flames (auditory),
and the motion and color of flames (visual).
