“A lot of people have the misconception that modeling is a glamourous job, and it can be. But ultimately if you don’t like to stay quiet, and let people tell you what to do, and fuss on you… it may not be the right fit. If you decide it’s something you’re really passionate about though, go for it!” PeopleIfsMayJobsFitQuietPassionateModelingMisconception Author:Kelly Cutrone
“[Silvio] Gesell's chiefwork is written in cool and scientific terms, although it is run through by a more passionate and charged devotion to social justice than many think fit for a scholar. I believe that the future will learn more from the spirit of Gesell then from that of Marx.” ThinkingBelieveRunningSpiritI BelieveSocialTermJusticeWrittenFitSocial JusticeInvestingPassionateDevotionScholar Author:John Maynard Keynes
“It's really hard to fit a complex idea into a 3-minute pop song. And when you're dealing with issues that you're passionate about, usually they have various levels. And within a poem, you can get around the issue of space, and in a song the same way, by simply leaving holes and alluding to what you're talking about.” WayIdeasHardSongSpaceLevelsTalkingIssuesMinutesFitComplexesLeavingPassionateVariousPopsHolesPop Song Author:Jon Foreman
“I am a design chauvinist. I believe that good design is magical and not to be lightly tinkered with. The difference between a great design and a lousy one is in the meshing of the thousand details that either fit or don't, and the spirit of the passionate intellect that has tied them together, or tried. That's why programming - or buying software - on the basis of "lists of features" is a doomed and misguided effort. The features can be thrown together, as in a garbage can, or carefully laid together and interwoven in elegant unification, as in APL, or the Forth language, or the game of chess.” BelieveTogetherSpiritGamesLanguageI BelieveDifferencesEffortDesignFitThousandBasesPassionateDetailsIntellectListsChessFeaturesProgrammingBuyingThrownSoftwareTiedDoomedElegantGarbageMisguidedGood DesignUnificationGreat DesignGarbage Cans Author:Ted Nelson
“What I've learned being a writer is to just basically not buckle - not be belligerent, not be angry, not throw fits. Though there are times where you have to stand up and yell. If I've got to throw a chair, I'll throw a chair. There was a meekness about me when I started, and I think the meekness has sort of evaporated. I hope that it's left behind a more passionate person, not a meaner person. So I guess that's what I've learned.” ThinkingFitPassionateLeft BehindMeekness Author:Shane Black
