Imperfection is Perfection. Small errors required to display the true quality of gaps in between to create meaning and essence of reality. What good is anything if it isn't flawed and produces only that which emit ideal situations.
We often confuse determination with its evil twin: fixation. While determination is our ability to stand our ground while pursuing our goals. Fixation, on the other hand, is an unhealthy attachment to an ideal.
There's really no way to be perfect. Perfectionism is a silly trait to have, so in a lot of ways that inspired the world of 'Divergent,' in which everyone is striving toward that ideal and falling short of it.
The reveries of youth, in which so much energy is wasted, are the yearnings of a Spirit made for what it has not found but must forever seek as an Ideal.
President Reagan always gave the credit to the American people and American ideals. He treated his job as a valuable temporary loan from the American people, a loan that should be respected and returned with dutiful appreciation.
A man after God's own heart is... a man who yearns to please God, a man who desires to grow spiritually, a man who had a heart that obeys.
I am not the same man I was 35 years ago. And I hope that five years and ten years from now, I'll be a better man, a more mature man, a wiser man, a more humble man and a more spirited man to serve the good of my people and the good of humanity.
No woman can make a wise man out of a fool, but every woman can change a wise man into a fool.
A good dog does not bite a chicken and a good man does not hit his wife.
When a rich man falls they say it was an accident; when a poor man falls they say that he was drunk.
Every man dies. Not every man lives.
A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money.
The word of a powerful man is the truth.
A poor man is all schemes.
One man's meat is another man's poison.
Silence is music to a wise man.
Wars are not acts of God. They are caused by man, by man-made institutions, by the way in which man has organized his society. What man has made, man can change.
'Fringe' was the first time I realized that I could ever man up in a character and make this transition from being a boy or a young man into actually being a man.
Nature also forges man, now a gold man, now a silver man, now a fig man, now a bean man.
I always knew I was a man, always felt that I was a man, always wanted to be a man.
If you're losing, just be a man; be a man and lose as a man.
