Personal Quotes

Computer literacy is a contact with the activity of computing deep enough to make the computational equivalent of reading and writing fluent and enjoyable. As in all the arts, a romance with the material must be well under way. If we value the lifelong learning of arts and letters as a springboard for personal and societal growth, should any less effort be spent to make computing a part of our lives? Picture Quote #1

Running and meditation are very personal activities. Therefore they are lonely. This loneliness is one of their best qualities because it strengthens our incentive to motivate ourselves Picture Quote #1

While some people are apprehensive that meditation may conflict with their beliefs, the usual experience is that it leads to a heightened appreciation of their particular religious leanings and a greater level of personal joy Picture Quote #1

What was your greatest challenge? Staying alive as a business, staying ahead of the game, and melding my business life with my personal life Picture Quote #1

Since the social victim has been oppressed by society, he comes to feel that his individual life will be improved more by changes in society than by his own initiative. Without realizing it, he makes society rather than himself the agent of change. The power he finds in his victimization may lead him to collective action against society, but it also encourages passivity within the sphere of his personal life Picture Quote #1

The trouble with many plans is that they are based on the way things are now. To be successful, your personal plan must focus on what you want, not what you have Picture Quote #1

At my age, I regard each funeral I attend as a personal triumph, because I was not the guest of honor Picture Quote #1

My music has been a sort of personal therapy. It’s got me out of tough times, it has been the friend that I needed, when I didn’t have a friend there Picture Quote #1

The creative musician... is... the radio receiver, not the broadcasting station. His personal discipline is to improve the quality of the components, the transistors, the speakers, the alloys in the receiver itself, but never to concern himself overmuch with putting out the program. The program is there; all he has to do is receive it as far as possible Picture Quote #1

It’s been one of the most important tools for me in personal growth for understanding myself, how I am, and what effect I do have on other people Picture Quote #1

The drama of the essay is the way the public life intersects with my personal and private life. It’s in that intersection that I find the energy of the essay Picture Quote #1

I believe in it, and I trust it too and treasure it above everything, the personal, the personal, the personal! I put my faith in it not only as the source, the ground of meaning in art, in life, but as the meaning itself Picture Quote #1

Books are personal, passionate. They stir emotions and spark thoughts in a manner all their own, and I’m convinced that the shattered world has less hope for repair if reading becomes an ever smaller part of it Picture Quote #1

There’s a phenomenology of being sick, one that depends on temperament, personal history, and the culture which we live in Picture Quote #1

Personal style is about a sense of yourself, a sense of what you believe in and wearing what you like Picture Quote #1

People never hurt others in moments of personal strength and bravery, when they are feeling good about themselves, when they are strong and confident. If we spent all of our waking moments in that place, then fighting for social justice would be redundant; we would simply have social justice and be done with it, and we could all go swimming, or fishing, or bowling, or dancing, or whatever people do. But it is because we spend so much of our time in that other place, that place of diminished capacity, of flagging energy, or wavering and somewhat flaccid commitment, that we have to be careful Picture Quote #1

Unless we are prepared to search our souls to discover what to say, and then how to say it effectively, we cannot expect to deal successfully with today’s domestic and personal problems, not to mention those international issues on which our very lives depend Picture Quote #1

If either man or woman would realize that the full power of personal beauty, it must be by cherishing noble thoughts and hopes and purposes; by having something to do and something to live for that is worthy of humanity, and which, by expanding and symmetry to the body which contains it Picture Quote #1

Personal finances are like people’s personal health, crucial and tragic to the sufferer but tedious to the listener Picture Quote #1

New beginnings – professional, personal, or come what may – are always uncomfortable, but being open to them is the only way to grow. In the end, we are all capable of so much more than we think Picture Quote #1

The personal right to acquire property, which is a natural right, gives to property, when acquired, a right to protection, as a social right Picture Quote #1

My devotion to my job started from a personal defeat: my first girlfriend’s parents rejected me because I wasn’t rich. I decided I would show them what a big mistake they had made Picture Quote #1

Get yourself in trouble. If you get yourself in trouble, you don’t have the answers. And if you don’t have the answers, your solution will more likely be personal because no one else’s solutions will seem appropriate. You’ll have to come up with your own Picture Quote #1

Sometimes, it’s easier to tell a stranger something very personal. It’s like there’s less risk, opening yourself up to someone who doesn’t know you Picture Quote #1

One day I was living silently in a personal hell, without anyone to tell what I felt, without even knowing that the feelings I had were possible to have; and then one day I was not living like that at all. I had begun to see the past like this: there is a line; you can draw it yourself, or sometimes it gets drawn for you; either way, there it is, your past, a collection of people you used to be and things you used to do. Your past is the person you no longer are, the situations you are no longer in Picture Quote #1

Leadership is much less about what you do, and much more about who you are. If you view leadership as a bag of manipulative tricks or charismatic behaviors to advance your own personal interest, then people have every right to be cynical. But if your leadership flows first and foremost from inner character and integrity of ambition, then you can justly ask people to lend themselves to your organization and its mission Picture Quote #1

Because of my personal history, my professional skills and my business achievements, I am a man nobody can expect to compare himself with Picture Quote #1

The personal lives of painters are tragic and inevitable and do not explain the artist. For the artist is his work and no longer human Picture Quote #1

There is nothing wrong with underlining personal agency, but there is something unfair about using personal responsibility as a basis for assigning blame while simultaneously denying those who are being blamed the opportunity to exert agency in their lives Picture Quote #1

Writing your own blog platform is like roasting your own coffee: it’s impractical and you probably shouldn’t do it, but for people who really, truly care about it, it’s worthwhile to them for their own personal priorities that sound crazy to everyone else. Well, I write my own blog platform and I roast my own coffee Picture Quote #1
