“It's the artist's duty to have an artist's life, somehow to obtain time and freedom and then to muster the desire and discipline to make good work out of the life, whether that goodness is in the world's aesthetics, its radicalism, its candor, its singularity, or its universality.” WorldDesireArtistResponsibilityDutyDisciplineGoodnessWork OutGood WorkAestheticsSingularityCandorMusterUniversalityRadicalism Book:Epicurean Simplicity Source: Epicurean Simplicity

“I learned that unless you start working, if you're frozen out of work, you will never learn the habits, the discipline, the values of cooperation and improvement unless you get a job, and that's what statistic show. It's, unless you get a job and keep it, you will not get out of poverty. If you do, you have a very good chance of working out of poverty.” IfsShowsJobsValuesChancePovertyHabitDisciplineVery GoodWork OutImprovementCooperationFrozenGood Chance Author:Charles Koch
“Surviving the grind of 18-hour days and getting up at four in the morning to work out for an hour so I'd have the energy to do it again the next day. I did not know I had that discipline. I did not know I had the discipline to learn a seven-page scene in three hours to shoot that day or the next day. I didn't know that I was capable of realizing that potential.” EnergyRealizingHoursMorningDisciplineSceneCapableWork OutSurvivingGrind Author:Richard Schiff
“For me, a lot of Discipline was very personal writing, like writing through and working out being inside this gendered body and also the compulsions of the body, the muting of the mind as driven by the body. My father had died some years ago so he haunts the book too, just floats through it ghost-like. But, the writing of every book is different for me. They are so like living creatures, these books, so I don't know what's carried over into the writing of the next things - except maybe that I'm best when I make my writing practice a routine.” WritingMindBookDifferentFatherDisciplineWork OutDriven Author:Dawn Lundy Martin
“Realization that i couldn't be a ballet dancer was a blessing in disguise because that was the first time I felt like I stepped into adulthood. I realized, Okay, this is not going to work out. It was frustrating for about a year because I didn't know what to do with the creativity and the discipline that dancing had instilled in me from a very young age. But then I moved to Paris to model, and that was my cultural awakening. Now, I think dancing has been the biggest thing in my life, much more so than modeling, and it still helps me enormously in my work.” ThinkingHelpingAgeCreativityDisciplineBlessingFirst TimeOkayMovedDancingWork OutAwakeningI RealizedRealizationDancerHelp MeBalletAdulthoodDisguiseGoing To WorkFrustratingModelingBallet Dancer Author:Diane Kruger
