“To win you've got to stay in the game.”
Claude M. Bristol
““But that’s not the way of it with the tales that really mattered, or the ones that stay in the mind. Folk seem to have just landed in them, usually - their paths were laid that way, as you put it. But I expect they had lots of chances, like us, of turning back, only they didn’t. And if they had, we shouldn’t know, because they’d have been forgotten. We hear about those as just went on - and not all to a good end, mind you; at least not to what folk inside a story and not outside it call a good end””
J.R.R. Tolkien
“I shall stay the way I am because I do not give a damn.”
Dorothy Parker
“You've got to be (an) optimist to be a Democrat, and you've got to be a humorist to stay one”
Will Rogers
“I have more care to stay than will to go.”
William Shakespeare
“You may be sorry that you spoke, sorry you stayed or went, sorry you won or lost, sorry so much was spent. But as you go through life, you'll find - you're never sorry you were kind.”
Herbert Prochnow
“Refuse to fall down. If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down, lift your heart toward heaven like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled and it will be filled. You may be pushed down. You may be kept from rising. But no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven-only you. It is in the middle of misery that so much becomes clear. The one who says nothing good came of this is not yet listening.”
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
“You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.”
Paulo Coelho
“It's easy to get married, but hard to stay that way.”
Mae West
