Fires can't be made with dead embers, nor can enthusiasm be stirred by spiritless men. Enthusiasm in our daily work lightens effort and turns even labor into pleasant tasks.
To say more while saying less is the secret of being simple.
My feelings are too loud for words and too shy for the world.
If you are good, they say you are weak.
In every sound, the hidden silence sleeps.
Knighthood lies above eternity; it doesn’t live off fame, but rather deeds.
Life eats life to live.
My work is not so overtly about movement. My horses' gestures are really quite quiet, because real horses move so much better than I could pretend to make things move. For the pieces I make, the gesture is really more within the body, it's like an internalized gesture, which is more about the content, the state of mind or of being at a given instant. And so it's more like a painting. . . the gesture and the movement is all pretty much contained within the body.
Working with the UN's diplomacy and development arms, we can prevent minor differences from escalating into wars. When conflicts do break out, UN peacekeepers should play a role in defusing and settling them. Without giving up our sovereignty, we can help the UN with better training and better command and control in order to develop more effective peacekeeping forces.
And I love that even in the toughest moments, when we're all sweating it - when we're worried that the bill won't pass, and it seems like all is lost - Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and the noise. Just like his grandmother, he just keeps getting up and moving forward. . . with patience and wisdom, and courage and grace.
This one doesn't exist. The prettiest girl and the best car don't exist as well.
