Text Quotes
I’ve learned not to let it be the end of the world if a boy doesn’t like you. I used to put so much effort into boys. I started playing guitar because I wanted to impress this boy. Then, I ended up in love with guitar and I didn’t care about the boy anymore  (Effort Quotes) Of course I believe imaginative architecture can make a difference to people’s lives, but I wish it was possible to divert some of the effort we put into ambitious museums and galleries into the basic architectural building blocks of society  (Effort Quotes) I live by the philosophy that beauty starts from within, and I make a conscious effort to fill my body with nutrients through the food I eat  (Effort Quotes) I really don’t make a concerted effort to try to find a type of role  (Effort Quotes) I’ve figured out that life in general is a team effort; it’s a team game  (Effort Quotes) I don’t feel I’m making a conscious effort to go more commercial  (Effort Quotes) Rhythm is born in all of us. To be a desirable dancing partner, you don’t have to do all the intricate fancy steps that happen to be in vogue. All you have to do is be a good average dancer, and anybody who spends the time and effort can accomplish this  (Effort Quotes) Nothing could be worse than the fear that one had given up too soon, and left one unexpended effort that might have saved the world  (Effort Quotes) Faith is indeed intellectual; it involves an apprehension of certain things as facts; and vain is the modern effort to divorce faith from knowledge. But although faith is intellectual, it is not only intellectual. You cannot have faith without having knowledge; but you will not have faith if you have only knowledge  (Effort Quotes) It is the struggle itself that is most important. We must strive to be more than we are. It does not matter that we will not reach our ultimate goal. The effort itself yields its own reward  (Effort Quotes) With friends, if you keep making an effort to reach out and you keep getting hurt, you eventually stop trying. But it’s much harder to give up on family. Somewhere deep down you want it to work so badly that you keep making the same mistake over and over again  (Effort Quotes) You were one person alive and your brain was encased in a skull. There were other people out there. It took effort to be connected  (Effort Quotes) Booze takes a lot of time and effort if you’re going to do a good job with it  (Effort Quotes) Love chooses to believe the best about people. It gives them the benefit of the doubt. It refuses to fill in the unknowns with negative assumptions. And when our worst hopes are proven to be true, love makes every effort to deal with them and move forward. As much as possible, love focuses on the positive  (Effort Quotes) Every poem is an infant labored into birth and I am drenched with sweating effort, tired from the pain and hurt of being a man, in the poem I transform myself into a woman  (Effort Quotes) The aim of poetry and the poet is finally to be of service, to ply the effort of the individual into the larger work of the community as a whole  (Effort Quotes) For although this was a very heroic war, with a parade of every sort of high moral principle, and with the most sonorous language employed upon both sides, it somehow failed to bring about either the reformation or the ruin of humankind: and after the conclusion of the murdering and general breakage, the world went on pretty much as it has done after all other wars, with a vague notion that a deal of time and effort had been unprofitably invested, and a conviction that it would be inglorious to say so  (Effort Quotes) But, drawn to her at that moment, he felt a quiet like the voice of the rain flow over him. He knew well enough that for her it was in fact no waste of effort, but somehow the final determination that it was had the effect of distilling and purifying the woman’s existence  (Effort Quotes) ... Men do not sufficiently realize that their future is in their own hands. Theirs is the task of determining first of all whether they want to go on living or not. Theirs is the responsibility, then, for deciding if they want merely to live, or intend to make just the extra effort required for fulfilling, even on this refractory planet, the essential function of the universe, which is a machine for the making of gods  (Effort Quotes) Is not life exactly what it ought to be, in a certain sense? Isn’t it only the naive who find all of this baffling? If you’ve a notion of what man’s heart is, wouldn’t you say that maybe the whole effort of man on earth to build a civilization is simply man’s frantic and frightened attempt to hide himself from himself?  (Effort Quotes) As I see it, life is an effort to grip before they slip through one’s fingers and slide into oblivion, the startling, the ghastly or the blindingly exquisite fish of the imagination before they whip away on the endless current and are lost for ever in oblivion’s black ocean  (Effort Quotes) The reward of a work is to have produced it; the reward of effort is to have grown by it  (Effort Quotes) A good book deserves an active reading. The activity of reading does not stop with the work of understanding what a book says. It must be completed by the work of criticism, the work of judging. The undemanding reader fails to satisfy this requirement, probably even more than he fails to analyze and interpret. He not only makes no effort to understand; he also dismisses a book simply by putting it aside and forgetting it. Worse than faintly praising it, he damns it by giving it no critical consideration whatever  (Effort Quotes) If we are to grow in love, the prisons of our egoism must be unlocked. This implies suffering, constant effort and repeated choices  (Effort Quotes) To recognize that the greatest error is not to have tried and failed, but that in trying, we did not give it our best effort  (Effort Quotes) It’s such a colossal effort not to be haunted by what’s lost, but to be enchanted by what was  (Effort Quotes) I wake up in the morning and I see that flower, with the dew on its petals, and at the way it’s folding out, and it makes me happy, she said. It’s important to focus on the things in the here and now, I think. In a month, the flower will be shriveled and you will miss its beauty if you don’t make the effort to do it now. Your life, eventually, is the same way  (Effort Quotes) It seems to me there’s this tyranny that’s not accidental or incidental, to make women feel compelled to look like somebody they’re not. I think the effort is being made to get us to turn our time and attention to this instead of important political issues  (Effort Quotes) Pain is not wrong. Reacting to pain as wrong initiates the trance of unworthiness. The moment we believe something is wrong, our world shrinks and we lose ourselves in the effort to combat the pain  (Effort Quotes) Having the right to happiness means having the right to earn it, not having it given to you without effort and action on your part  (Effort Quotes)
