“There are two types of pain, the one that breaks you and the one that changes you. In the gym, pain is felt as a result of weakness leaving the body. Physical pain is the glue of transformation and the pain of progress. The more you endure the harder it gets to accept the thought of failure.” TwoBodyPainFeltResultsAcceptingBreakProgressTypeWeaknessHarderTransformationEndureLeavingGymGluePhysical Pain Author:Greg Plitt
“We've learned over the years that if we wanted we could write anything that just felt good or sounded good and it didn't necessarily have to have any particular meaning to us. As odd as it seemed to us, reviewers would take it upon themselves to interject their own meanings on our lyrics. Sometimes we sit and read other people's interpretations of our lyrics and think, 'Hey, that's pretty good.' If we liked it, we would keep our mouths shut and just accept the credit as if it was what we meant all along.” PeopleIfsThinkingWritingYearsSometimesWantedFeltAcceptingParticularMouthsCreditHeyOddInterpretationReviewers Author:John Lennon

“Having children can smooth the relationship, too. Mother and daughter are now equals. That is hard to imagine, even harder to accept, for among other things, it means realizing that your own mother felt this way, too--unsure of herself, weak in the knees, terrified about what in the world to do with you. It means accepting that she was tired, inept, sometimes stupid; that she, too, sat in the dark at 2:00 A.M. with a child shrieking across the hall and no clue to the child's trouble.” WorldWayMeanChildrenSometimesHardMotherFeltRealizingDarkAcceptingImagineTroubleStupidDaughterWeakHarderTiredKneesSatHallsSmoothTerrifiedClueMother And DaughterHaving ChildrenUnsureWeak In The Knees Book:Living Out Loud Source: Living Out Loud

“I studiously avoided all so-called "holy men." I did so because I had to make do with my own truth, not accept from others what I could not attain on my own. I would have felt it as a theft had I attempted to learn from the holy men and to accept their truth for myself.
