I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfis? You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger. Simone de Beauvoir
Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled---to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world. Mary Oliver
Sting quote: "Like Yoga, the spiritual life is actually very difficult."

If I stumbled badly in doing the job, I think it would have made life more difficult for women, and that was a great concern of mine and still is. Sandra Day O'Connor
Our Prime Minister, Gordon Brown has given the Government's support to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill. It is difficult to imagine a single piece of legislation which, more comprehensively, attacks the sanctity and dignity of human life than this particular Bill. Keith O'Brien
Thales quote: "The most difficult thing in life is to know yourself."

Life's only choosing when to die. Life's a big postponement because the choice is so difficult. It's a tremendous relief not to have to choose. Anthony Burgess
Is there any of the usual social occasions which it is not difficult to avoid? But if you decide that you cannot very well ignore your worldly obligations, and that you will therefore carry them out properly, the demands on your time will multiply, bringing physical hardship and mental tension; in the end, you will spend your whole life pointlessly entangled in petty obligations.
