There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy.: Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 - 1894)
- More quotations on: [Duty]
Shared laughter creates a bond of friendships. When people laugh together, they cease to be young and old, teacher and pupils, worker and boss. They become a single group of human beings.: W. Lee Grant
When she stopped conforming to the conventional picture of femininity she finally began to enjoy being a woman.: Betty Friedan (1921 - 2006)
Sound character provides the power with which a person may ride the emergencies of life instead of being overwhelmed by them. Failure is... the highway to success.: Og Mandino (1923 - 1996)
In terms of being late or not starting at all, then it's never too late.: Alison Headley, Digital Preservation and Blogs, SXSW 2006
One of the joys we have in being human is in exercising our freedom to choose and to take each case as it comes to us. We are not robots who are forced into behaviors by their programming. We see things; we think about things; and we choose our course of action or beliefs appropriately. And as long as that remains true of us, we will live every day of our lives on one slippery slope or another. There is no reason to fear this.: Gordon Atkinson, Real Live Preacher weblog, 03-23-06
I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.: Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011), Stanford University commencement address, June 12, 2005
People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives, which is as close as any of us can come to being happy.: Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, 1990
A self that is only differentiated - not integrated - may attain great individual accomplishments, but risks being mired in self-centered egotism. By the same token, a person who self is based exclusively on integration will be well connected and secure, but lack autonomous individuality. Only when a person invests equal amounts of psychic energy in these two processes and avoids both selfishness and conformity is the self likely to relect complexity.: Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, 1990
It's always been about the experience of life and of not being passive. If something so excites my curiosty, I want to go there, be a part of whatever it is that's either pushing me or pulling me toward it. That desire for experience has made me very rich in life experience.: Tish Grier, love and hope and sex and dreams, 04-12-2006
