Committed readers realize at a certain point that literature is where we have learned a good part of the little we know about living (Committed Quotes)

Individuals who break through by inventing a new paradigm are almost always either very young men or very new to the field whose paradigm they change.

The more we are committed to believing that something is true, the less likely we are to believe that its opposite is true, even in the face of clear evidence that shows we are wrong (Committed Quotes)
Marriage is for committed lovers, not hostages. Marriage is a sacred relationship created for two people who complete each other spiritually. While it requires sacrificial service, it is not a call to martyrdom. In many cases of domestic violence, a therapeutic separation is necessary to gain safety and direct attention to the gravity of the need for change (Committed Quotes)

It’s a beautiful thing to be that committed to something that you get so much joy from, but it is like a sick addiction, because sometimes it’s incredibly volatile, incredibly painful, and very frustrating. A man shouldn’t be defined by his work, but I am (Committed Quotes)
I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life. Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time. No one person or material thing could ever come close to the feeling I get when the music is right. I am totally committed to my music and my fans (Committed Quotes)
I came from an extraordinarily dysfunctional family, full of abuse and alcoholism. And eventually everyone within the family had committed suicide (Committed Quotes)
In my lifetime I have murdered 21 human beings, I have committed thousands of burglaries, robberies, larcenies, arson’s and, last but not least, I have committed sodomy on more than 1,000 male human beings. For all these things I am not in the least bit sorry (Committed Quotes)

One’s relationship with money is lifelong, it colors one’s sense of identity, it shapes one’s attitude to other people, it connects and splits generations; money is the arena in which greed and generosity are played out, in which wisdom is exercised and folly committed. Freedom, desire, power, status, work, possession: these huge ideas that rule life are enacted, almost always, in and around money (Committed Quotes)
When you say I committed adultery, are you stating before the marriage of 1996 or prior to? (Committed Quotes)
How many young girls there are who do not see any wrongdoing in following certain shameless styles like so many sheep. They certainly would blush if they could guess the impression they make and the feelings they evoke in those who see them. Do they not see the harm resulting from excess in certain gymnastic exercises and sports not suitable for virtuous girls? What sins are committed or provoked by conversations which are too free, by immodest shows, by dangerous reading. How lax have consciences become, how pagan morals! (Committed Quotes)
Sometimes people hurt us unintentionally. We may view that they’ve hurt us intentionally and want revenge. But sometimes when we really look back again, we can see that they weren’t intentional in trying to hurt us. That’s when we need to confess our judgment of them and forgive them for their unintentional hurts committed against us (Committed Quotes)
You’ve got criminal courts and child welfare officials refusing to do their jobs and protect children so they can shift the cases over to family court where predatory professionals can turn a dirty buck off the atrocities committed against children (Committed Quotes)
It is true that all of us are the beneficiaries of crimes committed by our ancestors, and it is true that nothing can be done about that now because the victims are dead and the survivors are innocent. These are good reasons for keeping our mouths shut about the past: but tell me, what are our reasons for silence about atrocities still to come? (Committed Quotes)
To be committed means you are willing to make a promise with no exception of return (Committed Quotes)
Within me is the potential to commit every evil act I see being committed by other men, and unless I feel this potential, I can at any moment be controlled by these same urges. I am free from these urges only if I recognize when I am feeling them, and while feeling them and acknowledging them to be me, choose not to follow them. Only in this way can I begin to regain the disowned parts of me. And only in this way can I know what it is I am criticizing in others (Committed Quotes)

It really helps if you are doing something you love instead of something you are just spending a bunch of money on. You can become very discouraged if you’re not involved in something genuine, something that you believe in, and are committed to (Committed Quotes)
Heaven and happiness do not exist. That is your parents’ way to justify the crime of having brought you into this world. What exists is reality, the tough reality, this slaughterhouse we’ve come to die in, if not to kill and to eat the animals, our fellow creatures. Therefore, do not reproduce, do not repeat the crimes committed against you, do not give back the same, evil paid with evil, as imposing life is the ultimate crime. Do not disturb the unborn, let them be in the peace of nothingness. Anyway we’ll all eventually go back there, so why beat around the bush? (Committed Quotes)
