“The one thread that was most surprising and most consistent was the lack of fear that people felt at the worst moment. They felt a lot of fear in early stages, when they're just realizing what's happening. But then things really seemed to be at their peak of terror, the fear went away. You can imagine why that's useful. At that moment your brain needs to focus all its attention on surviving, so people will feel a sense of calm as their brain tries to sort out a plan.” PeopleNeedsFeelsTryingMomentsFeltRealizingAttentionBrainFocusImaginePlansWorstStageHappeningsCalmTerrorConsistentThat MomentSurprisingThreadSurvivingWorst Moments Author:Amanda Ripley
“We know there are states, like Alaska, where there are not a lot of providers. How do we work on issues like that? How do we work on making sure that the small-business part of this works better?... And if people have [alternate] plans, let's compare them and see. Access, affordability, and quality - that's what this is about. [But] "repeal" is a symbol of something that I don't think is connected to the substance of what's happening. Do you want to take away care from people who have preexisting conditions?

“Modern culture appears to have adopted a strategy of tragedy.

“I am always an optimist. The pessimists are the liars who refuse to admit what is happening. And I'll give you three things we could do this instant to help Mexico: legalize drugs, renegotiate NAFTA so that it pays a living wage, protects unions and protects the environment and stop Plan Merida which gives $500 million a year to the Mexican army, the largest single criminal organization in Mexico.” GivingYearsHelpingThreePayMillionsEnvironmentPlansDrugProtectHappeningsOrganizationArmyUnionsRefuseCriminalsInstantHelp MeLiarsMexicoOptimistMexicanThree ThingsPessimistLiving WageNaftaProtect The Environment Author:Charles Bowden
“I'm not going to look back. 'Don't look back, something might be gaining on you.' I don't have anything specific in mind. I want to do what comes my way.

“We have consciousness and rational powers but unless you're willing to spend the time to gain control of yourself, gain control of your emotions, to think deeply about what you want in a year or two, or where you want your business to be, you're going to be swept away by every new event that occurs in the course of the day or the week and the small amount of time that you plan, that you address to conscious planning, is never enough to overcome the constant tide of emotions and new things happening.” ThinkingWantYearsTwoEnoughCoursesEmotionConsciousnessPlansWeekEventsWillingAmountHappeningsConsciousGainsOvercomingConstantWhat You WantPlanningThings HappenRationalAddressesBe YouTidesNew ThingsSwept AwaySmall Amounts Author:Robert Greene

“Poets often describe love as an emotion that we can't control, one that overwhelms logic and common sense. That's what it was like for me. I didn't plan on falling in love with you, and I doubt if you planned on falling in love with me. But once we met, it was clear that neither of us could control what was happening to us. We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has happened only once, and that's why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment of it.” IfsLoveHas BeensMomentsTogetherBeautifulFallDifferencesMemoriesForgetCommonEmotionClearDoubtPlansHappenedMinutesLove YouPoetMetsHappeningsLogicFalling In LoveCommon SenseDespiteNever ForgetGinFalling In Love With You Author:Nicholas Sparks
