You
(page 3)
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.
When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
The essential lesson I've learned in life is to just be yourself. Treasure the magnificent being that you are and recognize first and foremost you're not here as a human being only. You're a spiritual being having a human experience.
It is better to risk starving to death then surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?
A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.
One of the most important things about leadership is that you have to have the kind of humility that will allow you to be coached.
We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.
If you give up at the first rejection or the first bad review, you will never make it in publishing.
Think about what people are doing on Facebook today. They're keeping up with their friends and family, but they're also building an image and identity for themselves, which in a sense is their brand. They're connecting with the audience that they want to connect to. It's almost a disadvantage if you're not on it now.
Everybody always asks us how we choose the movies we have going right now, and it's hard to explain sometimes. There's a randomness to the way things kind of happen and get done. And sometimes you have this perfect storm, and you have to accept that and do the best you can.
The ultimate goal of a more effective and efficient life is to provide you with enough time to enjoy some of it.
Everything we do, even the slightest thing we do, can have a ripple effect and repercussions that emanate. If you throw a pebble into the water on one side of the ocean, it can create a tidal wave on the other side.
The beauty of reading is that it lets you travel in a way you could never know.
I've always wanted to see what Egypt was like when they were building the pyramids or Rome at the height of the empire or Greece — more specifically, Crete before it was destroyed. Why? Because I'm curious how we all hung out on a day to day basis, what was the chit chat, etc. Reading things in a book never gives you the feel.
I guarantee you that's what Jeff Gordon does. He uses everything the fans throw at him to stoke his fire and it drives him to be better at what he does.
You will reciprocally promise love, loyalty and matrimonial honesty. We only want for you this day that these words constitute the principle of your entire life and that with the help of divine grace you will observe these solemn vows that today, before God, you formulate.
You know you've read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.
There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.
If we had no hope — for a cure, for winning the lottery, for falling in love, for the end of war, for being free of abuse, or for having food, warmth, clothing, and shelter — we would have no reason to go on. What you hope for doesn't matter, but rather the essence of hope itself.
