Achieving Quotes (page 27)

Much of current speculation about the nature of ETIs--what level of technology have you achieved?, etc.--is misguided. The first question an earthling should ask of an ETI is not: What is the level of your science? but rather: Did it also happen to you? Do you have a self? If so, how do you handle it? Did you suffer a catastrophe. Walker Percy
Paulo Coelho quote: "People need not fear the unknown if they're capable of..."
People need not fear the unknown if they're capable of achieving what they need and want. Paulo Coelho
The challenge I set before anyone who condemns private-sector business is this: If you are a socially conscious person, why don't you run your business in a way that will help achieve social objectives? Muhammad Yunus
The ultimate goal is victory. And if you refuse to work as hard as you possibly can toward that aim, or if you do anything that keeps you from achieving that goal, then you are just cheating yourself. Don Shula
To my thinking, a great librarian must have a clear head, a strong hand, and, above all, a great heart. And when I look into the future, I am inclined to think that most of the men who achieve this greatness will be women. Melvil Dewey
Happiness is a state of non-contradictory joy--a joy without penalty or guilt, a joy that does not clash with any of your values and does not work for your own destruction, not the joy of escaping from your mind, but of using your mind's fullest power, not the joy of faking reality, but of achieving values that are real, not the joy of a drunkard, but of a producer. Ayn Rand
Eleanor Roosevelt quote: "Nothing has ever been achieved by the person who says, It..."
Nothing has ever been achieved by the person who says, It can't be done. Eleanor Roosevelt
I would like to achieve a state of inner spiritual grace from which I could function and give as I was meant to in the eye of God. Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Napolean Hill quote: "Cherish your vision and your dreams as they are the children..."
Cherish your vision and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements. Napolean Hill
Maybe we all live life at too high a pitch, those of us who absorb emotional things all day, and as mere consequence we can never feel merely content: we have to be unhappy, or ecstatically, head-over-heels happy, and those states are difficult to achieve within a stable, solid relationship. Nick Hornby
Man lives consciously for himself, but serves as an unconscious instrument for the achievement of historical, universally human goals. Leo Tolstoy
If a man prefers nothing I can give him nothing. But nearly all people I have ever met in this western society in which I live would agree to the general proposition that we need this life of practical romance; the combination of something that is strange with something that is secure. We need so to view the world as to combine an idea of wonder and an idea of welcome. We need to be happy in this wonderland without once being merely comfortable. It is this achievement of my creed that I shall... Gilbert K. Chesterton

What is wisdom? It is the skill to achieve the perfect means by the perfect ends Aiden Wilson Tozer
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "originality and a feeling of one's own dignity are achieved..."
originality and a feeling of one's own dignity are achieved only through work and struggle. Fyodor Dostoevsky
The Bible says he was raised not just after the blood-shedding, but by it. This means that what the death of Christ accomplished was so full and so prefect that the resurrection was the reward and vindication of Christ's achievement in death. John Piper
