“Dear Procrastinator: Taking action in and of itself is not difficult, but is in fact satisfying and is usually followed by a sense of pride & accomplishment. However, it is THINKING about the action that you should be taking and NOT taking it that's difficult, as it leaves you feeling guilty and unsatisfied. THE SOLUTION: Stop thinking and take action NOW.” ThinkingShouldFactsFeelingsActionDifficultPrideSolutionsDearGuiltyAccomplishmentSatisfyingTaking ActionUnsatisfiedFeeling GuiltyProcrastinatorThinking Differently Author:Hal Elrod
“My dear colleagues, I thank you very very much for this tribute to my work. I think that Jane Fonda and I have done the best work of our lives, and I salute you and I pay tribute to you, and I think you should be very proud that in the last few weeks you have stood firm and you have refused to be intimidated by the threats of a small bunch of Zionist hoodlums whose behavior is an insult to the stature of Jews all over the world and to their great and heroic record of struggle against fascism and oppression. And I pledge to you that I will continue to fight against anti-Semitism and fascism.” ThinkingShouldDonePayAcceptingOur LivesDearOscarsColleaguesJaneBest WorkTributeJuliaSalute Author:Vanessa Redgrave
“Knapsack of the Metaphysicians.- Those who boast so mightily of the scientificality of their metaphysics should receive no answer; it is enough to pluck at the bundle which, with a certain degree of embarrassment, they keep concealed behind their back; if one succeeds in opening it, the products of that scientificality come to light, attended by their blushes: a dear little Lord God, a nice little immortality, perhaps a certain quantity of spiritualism, and in any event a whole tangled heap of 'wretched poor sinner' and Pharisee arrogance.” IfsShouldLittlesEnoughPhilosophyWholeLightCertainAnswersPoorBehindsLordNiceEventsProductsSucceedDegreesDearOpeningImmortalityArroganceSinnerQuantityMetaphysicsBoastWretchedEmbarrassmentConcealedTangledPluckBundlesSpiritualismLord GodPharisees Author:Friedrich Nietzsche
“You and I know and do not believe that life is so dear and peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery. If nothing in life is worth dying for, when did this begin-just in the face of this enemy? Or should Moses have told the children of Israel to live in slavery under the pharaohs? Should Christ have refused the cross? Should the patriots at Concord Bridge have thrown down their guns and refused to fire the shot heard 'round the world? The martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to stop the advance of the Nazis didn't die in vain.” IfsKnowsWorldShouldBelieveChildrenFacesLife IsDiesChristEnemyFireHeardDyingSweetFoolGunShotsCrossesSlaveryRoundsDearIsraelChainsVainBridgesThrownPatriotNaziHonoredMartyrMosesPharaohs Author:Ronald Reagan
