Text Quotes
You should do it against the clock. Say you are going to do 30 laps in 15 minutes. Then you try to do it each day a little faster. That is putting demands on the body, and that is how you build up. You keep up your energy instead of going downhill (Against Quotes)
I’m for truth, no matter who tells it. I’m for justice, no matter who it’s for or against (Against Quotes)
Do not underestimate the power of an enemy, no matter how great or small, to rise against you another day (Against Quotes)

It is said that the history of peoples who have a history is the history of class struggle. It might be said with at least as much truthfulness, that the history of peoples without history is a history of their struggle against the state (Against Quotes)
Enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil before the worst amongst you are given authority over you and then when even the best of you make dua against them, their duas will not be accepted (Against Quotes)
It is so easy to close down to risk, to protect ourselves against change and growth. But no baby bird emerges without first destroying the perfect egg sheltering it. We must risk being raw and fresh and awkward. For without such openness, life will not penetrate us anew. Unless we are open, we will not be filled (Against Quotes)
Most investors are pretty smart. Yet most investors also remain heavily invested in actively managed stock funds. This is puzzling. The temptation, of course, is to dismiss these folks as ignorant fools. But I suspect these folks know the odds are stacked against them, and yet they are more than happy to take their chances (Against Quotes)
I can’t judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in (Against Quotes)
Beware of turning into the enemy you most fear. All it takes is to lash out violently at someone who has done you some grievous harm, proclaiming that only your pain matters in this world. More than against that person’s body, you will then, at that moment, be committing a crime against your own imagination (Against Quotes)
Climbing is not a battle with the elements, nor against the law of gravity. It’s a battle against oneself (Against Quotes)
Perhaps we have been guilty of speaking against someone and have not realized how it may have hurt them. Then when someone speaks against us, we suddenly realize how deeply such words hurt, and we become sensitive to what we have done (Against Quotes)
We found out that no matter how good you are you can’t go out there and compete against teams that have been together for quite some time (Against Quotes)
All human populations are in some sense immigrants. All hostility between different cultures in one place has an aspect of the classic immigrant grudge against the next boatload approaching the shore. To defend one’s home and fields and ancestral graves against invasion seems a right. But to claim unique possession – to compound the fact of settlement with the aspect of a landscape into an abstract of eternal and immutable ownership – is a joke (Against Quotes)
Individually, every grain of sand brushing against my hands represents a story, an experience, and a block for me to build upon for the next generation (Against Quotes)
He will also find that the high and independent spirit, which usually dwells in the breast of those who are deeply versed in scientific pursuits, is ill adapted for administrative appointments; and that even if successful, he must hear many things he disapproves, and raise no voice against them (Against Quotes)
The capitalist can only make a whole people go to war... by capturing the popular will. The only prophylactic against that situation is to make the public aware of the way in which it is being misled (Against Quotes)
The competition I played against was fantastic, but golf is a different game now. The courses have shrunk because the equipment has gotten better. They’re hitting the ball 10 to 15 percent farther because of the changes in the golf ball (Against Quotes)
I hunt deer because I love the entire process; the preparation, the excitement, and sustained suspense of trying to match my woods lore against the finely honed instincts of these creatures (Against Quotes)
I hunt because I love the entire process: the preparations, the excitement, and sustained suspense of trying to match my woodslore against the finely honed instincts of these creatures. On most days spent in the woods, I come home with an honestly earned feeling that something good has taken place. It makes no difference whether or not I got anything: it has to do with how the day was spent (Against Quotes)
There is an old and a new consciousness of the age. The old one is directed towards the individual. The new one is directed towards the universal. The struggle of the individual against the universal may be seen both in the world war and in modern art (Against Quotes)
There exists in this country, sadly, a callous, corrupt and corrupting shadow industry that sells and stows violence against its own people through vicious and violent video games (Against Quotes)
Against the disease of writing one must take special precautions, since it is a dangerous and contagious disease (Against Quotes)
In two novels written forty years apart, a man and a woman tell stories of their love... Taken together they provide an unusually touching story of young love unable to prevail against an opposition whose strength was tragically buttressed by the uncertainties of a cultural divide (Against Quotes)
When you play teams that are good defensively and teams that have been there with experience, the object is to keep the goals against down (Against Quotes)
I emphasize that virtually every engineering calculation is ultimately a failure calculation, because without a failure criterion against which to measure the calculated result, it is a meaningless number (Against Quotes)
To me, atonality is against nature. There is a center to everything that exists. The planets have the sun, the earth, the moon (Against Quotes)
Memory is a barricade against forgetting; light is a bulwark against darkness; life is a flex against the stillness of the grave. Maybe that’s what I’m trying to do here, clear a space in all the debris, through all the anxieties and worries, where I can just exist, easily and simply, entire, for as long as I have left (Against Quotes)
No one should ever be afraid of failing; it’s being afraid to give it your all in trying that I urge against (Against Quotes)
I’m against ignorance. I’m against sloppy, emotional thinking. I’m against fashionable thinking. I am against the whole cliché of the moment (Against Quotes)
