“A continent ages quickly once we come. The natives live in harmony with it. But the foreigner destroys, cuts down the trees, drains the water, so that the water supply is altered, and in a short time the soil, once the sod is turned under, is cropped out and, next, it starts to blow away as it has blown away in every old country and as I had seen it start to blow in Canada. The earth gets tired of being exploited.” CountryAgeEarthNextWaterCuttingTreeLandHarmonyTiredBlowSoilCanadaContinentsForeignersAlteredDrainsShort TimeBlown AwaySod Book:The Hemingway Collection Source: The Hemingway Collection
“If you don't eat right as an athlete, you'll get tired and won't be as sharp. It's simple to drink sodas and sports drinks, but water is the most essential drink to put in your body.” IfsBodySportsWaterSimpleDrinkEssentialsTiredAthleteYour BodySoda Author:Troy Polamalu
“I go to practice each and every day, but my intensity is not the same. If I get tired, I'll go sit down. If I want some water, I'll go drink it. When I'm in training camp, I don't. I've got to push through being tired. I've got to push through being uncomfortable. That's really it. It's largely a mentality. You kind of flip that switch and turn your intensity up. Your heart rate goes up. Your reps go up. And you start to get in the frame of mind.” IfsWantMindHeartKindTurnsWaterPracticeDrinkTrainingTiredRateUncomfortableCampsIntensityMentalityFlipFrame Of MindHeart RateTraining Camp Author:Chael Sonnen
“Maybe that's what happens with age, I thought. All your life you force yourself to forget people who have hurt you, but as you get older and weaker their memory surfaces again, like a bubble in the water. You have to surrender, because you feel to tired to fight it and push it down again. And maybe, unexpectedly, you find out that instead, of revamping your anger, those memories produce an unexpected sweetness.” PeopleFeelsHappensAgeFightingForceWaterHurtMemoriesForgetProduceTiredSurfaceSurrenderUnexpectedBubblesSweetness Author:Francesca Marciano
