“It has long been a grave question whether any government, not too strong for the liberties of its people, can be strong enough to maintain its existence in great emergencies”
Abraham Lincoln
“There is nothing so strong or safe in an emergency of life as the simple truth”
Charles Dickens
“My ideas have undergone a process of emergence by emergency. When they are needed badly enough, they are accepted.”
Richard Buckminster Fuller
“In order to succeed, one must develop the capability of sustained focus. One of the key distinctions that separate achievers from the ‘non-achievers,’ is that the non-achievers stop when things get hard, when they get bored, or when results aren’t forthcoming; whereas the achievers stay the course until they reach the finish line no matter how hard it is.”
Derek Rydall
“As you become more rooted inside -- as you drink from this silent stream of life that runs beneath the surface of everything -- as you live from that depth of your own being more and more, then you’ll be able to rise taller and stronger in this world; more than you may have ever thought possible.”
“In this age of quick fixes and microwave mindsets, most of us want what we want, and we want it right now, whether it is instant download speed, instant riches, or an Oompa-Loompa, but just as you can’t force the farm to produce a harvest, you can’t force your seed of potential to grow until it is ripe and ready.”
“Just as the acorn contains the mighty oak tree, the Self has everything it needs to fulfill its destiny. When the inner conditions are right, it naturally emerges.”
