“When you're not used to comfort and good things to eat, you're intoxicated by them in no time. Truth's only too pleased to leave you. Very little is ever needed for Truth to let go of you. And after all, you're not really very keen to keep hold of it.”
Louis Ferdinand Celine
“This is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure.”
Winston Churchill

Zen Haiku
“It is too great comfort which turns a man against himself. Life is most readily renounced at the time and among the classes where it is least harsh.”
Emile Durkheim
“The Comfort Zone is like an addictive drug. The pain of addiction will paralyse you within its boundaries.”
Rodney Lovell
“If a proud man makes me keep my distance, the comfort is that he keeps his at the same time”
Jonathan Swift
“[One] brought himself up by his bootstraps ... the other was born to comfort, a college man at a time when nobody went to college. Each saw in the other the thing he wanted to be.”
