Jason Levi
My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that perceived weakness into a strength.
Michael Jordon
As our island of knowledge grows, so does the shore of our ignorance.
John Wheeler
Don’t cling to a mistake just because you spent a lot of time making it.
Unknown
They tried to bury us. They didn’t know we were seeds.
Mexican Proverb
It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.
Alan Cohen
Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
Howard Thurman
My candle burns at both ends. It will not last the night. But, ah, my foes, and
oh, my friends, It gives me a lovely light
Edna St. Vincent Millay
Having a dream that you don't pursue is like buying an ice cream cone and
watching it melt all over your hand.
Icarus
It is interesting to notice how some minds seem almost to create themselves, springing up under every disadvantage, and working their solitary but irresistible way through a thousand obstacles.
Washington Irving
All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.
T.E. Lawrence
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
Carl Jung
The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.
M. Scott Peck
What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your loneliest
loneliness, and say, 'This life which you live must be lived by you once again
and innumerable times more; and every pain and joy and thought and sigh must
come again to you, all in the same sequence. The eternal hourglass will again
and again be turned and you with it, dust of the dust!' Would you throw yourself
down and gnash your teeth and curse that demon? Or would you answer, 'Never have
I heard anything more divine'?
Friedrich Nietzsche
