Some of this seems a bit arbitrary. “Good health imparts reality to subtle creativity.” While poorly worded, it contains a kernel of truth that you can only express your creativity by being in good health. However it is put into the bs pile. The non bs section contains motivational quotes which are popular but are bs mostly. What is the definition of bsing? Thinking out loud? Not being accurate? Intentionally stringing together words to sound impressive?
- mewpmewp2 6y agoI don't get this one, that is supposedly a real quote - "Art and love are the same thing: It's the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you." Seems pseudo-profound to me, unless I'm missing something.
- Bakary 6y agoIn both art and love, the person who experiences them perceives links between their own identity or characteristics and the art/object of love, or sees these characteristics projected back at them through the art/process of loving.
- Bakary 6y agoThe motivational quotes can be bs in a practical sense, but they are not bs in a literal sense: the sentences have meaning in and of themselves. In this case, the rewording of the example you cited actually grants meaning to the sentence that it doesn't have but that we accidentally interpret it as having because the sentence is quite close to a meaningful sentence
