“We must never put our dreams of success as God's purpose for us; His purpose may be exactly the opposite. His purpose is that I depend on HIM and in HIS power NOW. His end is the process. It is the process, not the end, which is glorifying to God....His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future. We have nothing to do with the 'afterwards' of obedience. If we have a further end in view, we do not pay sufficient attention to the immediate present; if we realize that obedience is the end, then each moment as it comes is precious.” IfsMayEndsMomentsDreamPurposeProcessRealizingViewsPayAttentionMinutesDependsOppositesObedienceSufficientOur Dreams Author:Oswald Chambers
“A quarter-horse jockey learns to think of a twenty-second race as if it were occurring across twenty minutes--in distinct parts, spaced in his consciousness. Each nuance of the ride comes to him as he builds his race. If you can do the opposite with deep time, living in it and thinking in it until the large numbers settle into place, you can sense how swiftly the initial earth packed itself together, how swiftly continents have assembled and come apart, how far and rapidly continents travel, how quickly mountains rise and how quickly they disintegrate and disappear.” IfsThinkingEarthTogetherCan DoNumbersRaceConsciousnessMinutesMountainOppositesHorseTwentiesDisappearSettlingQuartersContinentsInitialsLarge NumbersNuanceJockeys Author:John McPhee
“The Stones were always exemplary of one of the best of all rock qualities: tightness. They have always been economical, the opposite of ornamental.

“For me it's much more like a little kid rebelling. The minute I was told what to do at any age, I did the opposite. Hopefully I'll do that for the rest of my life. I come from the business side and Mark comes from the creative side, but every time a decision came up about Creep it was two emails, and we agreed. I've not had that ever with someone on the creative or the business side.” LittlesTwoKidsAgeSidesDecisionCreativeMinutesOppositesMarkHopefullyEmailLittle KidCreeps Author:Jason Blum
“I had a back-and-forth where I asked Donald Trump, is it true or false that he said the government should pay for everyone's health care? He said it's false.
