“Well, of course you question it, especially when you get to this point. I always look at it would I rather not make the playoffs or lose in The Finals? I don't know. I don't know. I've missed the playoffs twice. I lost in The Finals four times. I'm almost starting to be like I'd rather not even make the playoffs than to lose in The Finals. It would hurt a lot easier if I just didn't make the playoffs and I didn't have a shot at it.” IfsKnowsWellsLooksCoursesLostLosesHurtFourEasierShotsFinalsStartingChampionshipPlayoffsNba Championships Author:LeBron James
“Organisms are starting to move in response to climate change all over the place. Bees are disappearing and we don't have many of the native pollinators left to replace them. We're in deep trouble; there's no question about it. But ecologists tend to think of something that's going to be bad in ten years as very fast, and of course, politicians only think of things in a two-, four-, six-year cycle.” ThinkingYearsTwoMovingCoursesLeftFourTroublePoliticianTenSixClimateResponseClimate ChangeStartingDisappearNativeCyclesBeesOrganisms Author:Paul R.

“The disciples had nothing to gain by lying and starting a new religion. They faced hardship, ridicule, hostility, and martyr's deaths. In light of this, they could never have sustained such unwavering motivation if they knew what they were preaching was a lie. The disciples were not fools and Paul was a cool-headed intellectual of the first rank. There would have been several opportunities over three to four decades of ministry to reconsider and renounce a lie.” IfsFirstsHas BeensLightLyingMotivationThreeOpportunityFourFoolIntellectualGainsStartingDecadesHardshipMinistryPreachingDiscipleRidiculeMartyrHostilityRenounceUnwavering Author:J.P.

“I call it 'new forms'. When you're starting out, they ask you to do four or five minute sets, but once you're a headliner, you do like 90 minutes.

I gotta carry the show, that's the problem.” ThinkingTryingDifferentShowsProblemFormAsksFiveFourMinutesStartingDrawingDifferent ThingsFive MinutesPlaying MusicStarting Out Author:Demetri Martin
