“Fear is that little darkroom where negatives are developed.”
Michael Pritchard
“Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe that you too can become great.”
Mark Twain
“Bondage is...subjection to external influences and internal negative thoughts and attitudes.”
W. Clement Stone
“Self-discipline, although difficult, and not always easy while combating negative emotions, should be a defensive measure. At least we will be able to prevent the advent of negative conduct dominated by negative emotion. That is 'shila', or moral ethics. Once we develop this by familiarizing ourselves with it, along with mindfulness and conscientiousness, eventually that pattern and way of life will become a part of our own life.”
Dalai Lama
“He who would be useful, strong, and happy must cease to be a passive receptacle for the negative, beggarly, and impure streams of thought; and as a wise householder commands his servants and invites his guests, so must he learn to command his desires and to say, with authority, what thoughts he shall admit into the mansion of his soul.”
James Allen
“People can drum up all the negativity they can drum up, and there's not one thing negative about this. People are in need, and we're happy to help them.”
Cecil Flowe
“For 2006, barring any unforeseen negative developments, all indications are that the new car market could well grow by another 10% during the course of the year, which - if it does indeed occur - would establish another record high for the new car market.”
