“And his paths shall be many, and who shall know his name, for he shall be beorn among us many times, in many guises, as he has been and ever will be, time without end. His coming shall be like the sharp edge of the plow, turning our lives in furrows form out of the places where we lie in our silence. The breaker of binds; the forger of chains. The maker of futures; the unshaper of destiny. -from Commentaries on the Prophecies of the Dragon, by Jurith Dorine, Right Hand to the Queen of Almoren, 742 AB, the Third Age” KnowsHas BeensEndsHandsAgeFormLyingNamesSilenceDestinyPathOur LivesThirdsEdgesChainsQueensDragonsMakersProphecyCommentaryGuiseSharp Edges Book:The Dragon Reborn: Book 3 of the Wheel of Time Source: The Dragon Reborn: Book 3 of the Wheel of Time

“Change is the end result of all true learning. Change involves three things: First, a dissatisfaction with self - a felt void or need; second, a decision to change to fill the void or need; and third, a conscious dedication to the process of growth and change - the willful act of making the change, doing something.” NeedsFirstsEndsSelfThreeFeltProcessGrowthChangeDecisionResultsCareersConsciousThirdsVoidDedicationThings ChangeThree ThingsDissatisfactionEnd ResultsChange And GrowthFill The Void Book:Love Source: Love
“'Tis said of love that it sometimes goes, sometimes flies; runs with one, walks gravely with another; turns a third into ice, and sets a fourth in a flame: it wounds one, another it kills: like lightning it begins and ends in the same moment: it makes that fort yield at night which it besieged but in the morning; for there is no force able to resist it.” LoveSaidEndsSometimesMomentsRunningAbleNightTurnsForceWalksMorningLove YouThirdsWoundsIceFlamesYieldFourthLightningFortsTime Flies Book:Don Quixote Source: Don Quixote
“Every successful man or great genius has three particular qualities in common. The most conspicuous of these is that they all produce a prodigious amount of work. The second is that they never know fatigue. And the third is that their minds grow more brilliant as they grow older, instead of less brilliant. Great men's lives begin at forty, where the mediocre man's life ends. The genius remains an ever-flowing fountain of creative achievement until the very last breath he draws.” KnowsMenMindEndsLastsThreeGrowsCommonSecretQualityCreativeSuccessfulProduceParticularAmountGeniusAchievementDrawsThirdsBreathsRemainsBrilliantGreat MenFortyMediocreFountainFatigueProdigiousSuccessful Man Author:Walter Russell

“The first thing the reasonable man must do is to be content with a very little knowledge and a very great deal of ignorance. The second thing he must do is to make the utmost possible use of the knowledge he has and not waste his energy crying for the moon.

“We did not think about the personal nature of killing in the air. We were proud of every victory in the air, and particularly happy that we had not been hit ourselves. Of course, I tell myself in quiet moments today: 'You've killed. In order to protect others and not be killed yourself.' But in the end: for what? The Third Reich trained 30,000 pilots. Ten thousand survived the war. One-third. This is the highest loss rate along with the U-boat sailors.” ThinkingWarEndsMomentsTodayOrderCoursesLossAirProudVictoryThousandQuietProtectTenHighestThirdsKillingRateBoatPilotsSurvivedSailorQuiet Moments Author:Gunther Rall
