Difficult Quotes (page 7)

Truth is what is true, and it's not necessarily factual. Truth and fact are not the same thing. Truth does not contradict or deny facts, but it goes through and beyond facts. This is something that it is very difficult for some people to understand. Truth can be dangerous. Madeleine L'Engle
Good sense is of all things in the world the most equally distributed, for everybody thinks he is so well supplied with it that even those most difficult to please in all other matters never desire more of it than they already possess. Rene Descartes
Baltasar Gracian quote: "Know how to ask. There is nothing more difficult for some..."
Know how to ask. There is nothing more difficult for some people, nor for others, easier. Baltasar Gracian
I know one thing for certain; it is much harder to tell whether you are lost than whether you were lost, for, on many occasions, where you are going is exactly where you are. On the other hand, if you often find that where you've been is not at all where you should have gone, and, since it's much more difficult to find your way back from someplace you've never left, I suggest you go there immediately and then decide. Norton Juster

It is true that liberty is not free, nor is it easy. But tyranny - even varying degrees of it - is much more difficult, and much more expensive. The time has come to rein in the federal government, put it on a crash diet, and let the people keep their money and their liberty. Ron Paul
Society functions in a way much more interesting than the multiple-choice pattern we have been rewarded for succeeding at in school. Success in life comes not from the ability to choose between the four presented answers, but from the rather more difficult and painfully acquired ability to formulate the questions. David Mamet
Sloth makes all things difficult, but industry all easy; and he that riseth late must trot all day, and shall scarce overtake his business at night; while laziness travels so slowly, that poverty soon overtakes him. Benjamin Franklin
Bruce Lee quote: "Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure..."
Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one Bruce Lee
Helene Cixous quote: "Writing is the delicate, difficult, and dangerous means of..."
Writing is the delicate, difficult, and dangerous means of succeeding in avowing the unavowable. Helene Cixous
As we live and as we are, Simplicity - with a capital "S" - is difficult to comprehend nowadays. We are no longer truly simple. We no longer live in simple terms or places. Life is a more complex struggle now. It is now valiant to be simple: a courageous thing to even want to be simple. It is a spiritual thing to comprehend what simplicity means. Frank Lloyd Wright
Once so much to each other! Now nothing! There had been a time, when of all the large party now filling the drawing-room at Uppercross, they would have found it most difficult to cease to speak to one another. [...] Now they were as strangers; nay, worse than strangers, for they could never become acquainted. Jane Austen
Oh, was not then all suffering time, was not all self-torment and fear time, did not everything difficult, everything hostile in the world vanish, was it not overcome as soon as one had overcome time, as soon as one could think it out of existence? Herman Hesse
George R. R. Martin quote: "Pleasing one king is difficult enough. Pleasing two is hardly..."
Pleasing one king is difficult enough. Pleasing two is hardly possible. George R. R. Martin
