Eliminer Quotes & Sayings

This is rather as if you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in - an interesting hole I find myself in - fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!'

Knowingness sees challenge as threat. Knowledge sees challenge as opportunity. — Tim Hurson

And all in all and on the whole: some day I wish to be only a Yes-sayer. — Friedrich Nietzsche

How many pages have I produced? I don't care. Are they any good? I don't even think about it. All that matters is I've put in my time and hit it with all I've got. All that counts is that, for this day, for this session, I have overcome Resistance. — Steven Pressfield
