Henry David Thoreau
The perception of the audience is the interesting part. If the audience doesn't hear what is going on, is it going on or not?
Robert Fripp
The perception of what a thing is and the perception of what it means are not separate, either.
James J. Gibson
The perceptive act is a reaction of the mind upon the object of which it is the perception.
Samuel Alexander
The really explicit phrase is doors of perception.
Marianne Faithfull
The thing of it is though that's the only way people know you, they see you in that roll and they see you in person and they only know the perception of what you are.
David Selby
The thing of which the act of perception is the perception is experienced as something not mental.
Samuel Alexander
The UN's unique legitimacy flows from a universal perception that it pursues a larger purpose than the interests of one country or a small group of countries.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee
There are children playing in the streets who could solve some of my top problems in physics, because they have modes of sensory perception that I lost long ago.

There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception.

John Hume

Robert Teeter
Thus the same object may supply a practical perception to one person and a speculative one to another, or the same person may perceive it partly practically and partly speculatively.
Samuel Alexander
To perceive means to immobilize... we seize, in the act of perception, something which outruns perception itself.
Henri Bergson
Truthiness is tearing apart our country, and I don't mean the argument over who came up with the word. I don't know whether it's a new thing, but it's certainly a current thing, in that it doesn't seem to matter what facts are. It used to be, everyone was entitled to their own opinion, but not their own facts. But that's not the case anymore. Facts matter not at all. Perception is everything.
Stephen Colbert
Unless you have a perception of who you are as a lawyer, you will never be at ease in dealing with legal matters, clients, or courts. But if you know who you are and why you're there, all you need is the expertise and the information.
Samuel Dash
