“Continue to make the demands of the day your immediate concern, and take occasion to test the purity of your hearts and the steadfastness of your spirits. When you then take a deep breath and rise above the cares of this world and in an hour of leisure, you will surely win the proper frame of mind to face devoutly what is above us, with reverence, seeing in all events the manifestation of a higher guidance.” WorldMindHeartCareFacesSpiritWinningHoursAttitudeSeeingEventsThis WorldHigherDemandConcernTestsBreathsOccasionsGuidanceManifestationPurityReverenceLeisureRise AboveDeep BreathFrame Of MindTake A Deep BreathSteadfastness Author:Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“I don't trust art that promises a 24-hour joyride. In fact, there seems to be a modern sense of entitlement for such constant "ups," which is a repugnant attitude any way one chooses to look at it. I definitely believe in the possibility of happiness, though; it's just something that I think, rightfully, is rare in its genuine form, and that it can't be counterfeited.” ThinkingWayBelieveLooksArtFactsSeemsFormHoursAttitudeModernPossibilityPromiseConstantGenuineEntitlementDon't TrustSense Of Entitlement Author:Chris Ware
“The gospel is a thing of joy. It provides us with a reason for gladness. Of course there are times of sorrow. Of course there are hours of concern and anxiety. We all worry. But the Lord has told us to lift our hearts and rejoice. I see so many people...who seem never to see the sunshine, but who constantly walk with storms under cloudy skies. Cultivate an attitude of happiness. Cultivate a spirit of optimism. Walk with faith, rejoicing in the beauties of nature, in the goodness of those you love, in the testimony which you carry in your heart concerning things divine.” PeopleHeartReasonSeemsJoySpiritCoursesHoursWalksAttitudeLordWorrySkyDivineSorrowGoodnessAnxietyConcernOptimismStormLiftsSunshineRejoiceTestimonyGladnessNature BeautyCloudyThose You LoveCloudy Skies Author:Gordon B.

“What is required as we travel towards full unemployment is not new legislation but a gradual change of mental attitude, a shift in values.

“A big reason why we were able to and have been able to continue to succeed is that we had a very intense work ethic, right from the beginning. There was a do-or-die attitude toward the work. It wasn't seen as a little "club." It was like, "This is your life." We would spend hours and hours rehearsing and endlessly rewriting. We took it very seriously right off the bat. And we were also extremely critical of each other, which was another thing that was unique. A lot of comedy ensembles have a hard time being critical of each other, because they don't want to hurt each other's feelings.” ReasonFeelingsHoursHurtAttitudeComedySucceedUniqueEthicsIntenseHard TimesWork Ethic Author:Michael Showalter
“I hung out with a lot of the riders to get their attitude and they're all like men. Men among boys. They have a certain calm to them which is really impressive. They go out there and they're racing 80 miles per hour, or jumping 60 foot jumps, I think they get all their adrenaline out. So during the day, they're just quiet, aloof and stoic superheroes kinda, you know what I mean? They're very, very respectful. It's a very family oriented sport.
