Doing The Right Thing Quotes (page 15)

Rafael Nadal quote: "You just try to play tough and focus point for point. Sounds..."
You just try to play tough and focus point for point. Sounds so boring, but it's the right thing to do out there. Rafael Nadal
The fact remains that getting people right is not what living is all about anyway. It's getting them wrong that is living, getting them wrong and wrong and wrong and then, on careful reconsideration, getting them wrong again. That's how we know we're alive: we're wrong. Maybe the best thing would be to forget about being right or wrong about people and just go along for the ride. But if you can do that—well, lucky you. Philip Roth
The left claims that Republicans hate Hispanics, which is just the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard, and the right just claims all we need to do is close the borders and do nothing else, which is also ridiculous. Raul Labrador
John Ruskin quote: "Doing is the great thing, for if people resolutely do what is..."
Doing is the great thing, for if people resolutely do what is right, they come in time to like doing it. John Ruskin
The ugliest thing in America is greed, the lust for power and domination, the lunatic ideology of perpetual Growth - with a capital G. 'Progress' in our nation has for too long been confused with 'Growth'; I see the two as different, almost incompatible, since progress means, or should mean, change for the better - toward social justice, a livable and open world, equal opportunity and affirmative action for all forms of life. And I mean all forms, not merely the human. The grizzly, the wolf,... Edward Abbey
The good thing is I don't put the ball in my right hand and I'm predominantly left-handed when I'm running the ball. I just have to take care of the football and even if I have two hands that are 100 percent, I still can't turn the ball over. It's just something I have to mentally prepare for, and I think I'm strong enough to do that. Michael Vick
The irritating question they ask us -- us being writers -- is: "Where do you get your ideas?"And the answer is: Confluence. Things come together. The right ingredients and suddenly: Abracadabra! Neil Gaiman
Do one of three things. One, go find a wailing wall and feel sorry for yourselves. Two, go psycho and start bombing-but this will only swing people to the right. Three, learn a lesson. Go home, organize, build power and at the next convention, you be the delegatepos Saul Alinsky
The one thing that the President can do is to establish a real energy independence plan. We have all the recources we need right here in this country to establish energy independence if we had the leadership. Herman Cain
The really amazing thing about all this is no matter what you believe, it took some doing to get from a point where there was nothing, to a point where all the right neurons fire and pop so that we can make decisions. More amazing is how even though that's become second nature, we all still manage to screw it up. Jodi Picoult
Thing that people forget is, we all die, right? We all die and no matter what we do, the universe is going to go on, perfectly happy without us. Charles de Lint
The greatest thing about where my life is right now is it's very relaxed and chill. I'm just hanging out, being myself and doing my work. Lucas Grabeel
The sad thing is, when it comes to diet, is that even when well-intentioned Feds try to do right by us, they fail. Either they're outvoted by puppets of agribusiness, or they are puppets of agribusiness. Mark Bittman
Fiona Apple quote: "The age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right..."
The age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19? Fiona Apple
Human rights' are a fine thing, but how can we make ourselves sure that our rights do not expand at the expense of the rights of others. A society with unlimited rights is incapable of standing to adversity. If we do not wish to be ruled by a coercive authority, then each of us must rein himself in...A stable society is achieved not by balancing opposing forces but by conscious self-limitation: by the principle that we are always duty-bound to defer to the sense of moral justice. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
