“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
“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
Steve Jobs
“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.”
Frank Deford
“This is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure.”
Winston Churchill
“A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown.”
Denis Waitley
“The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort.”
Confucius
