“Almost always, when we look deep into our souls, we can find there the same sins which we blame in others. If we do not find a particular sin in our soul, then we should look more closely, and we will find even worse sins there.”
Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 224)
“The man who cannot forgive destroys a bridge which he will have to cross, because every person needs forgiveness.”
Edward Herbert, A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 224)
“Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.”
Bruce Lee, Striking Thoughts (Page 31)
“The function and duty of a human being, a ‘quality’ human being, that is, is the sincere and honest development of potential and self-actualization.”
Bruce Lee, Striking Thoughts (Page 28)
“Some people use the 80/20 rules, meaning they stick with ‘clean’ eating 80% of the time and then the other 20% of the time they eat whatever they want. The problem is that the 80/20 becomes 60/40, then 40/60, then 20/80 and then all bets are off. Don’t follow the 80/20 rule. Follow the 100% rule—that might turn into the 99% rule and that is okay. But the 80/20 rule isn’t a rule. It’s a step down the slippery slope.”
Jocko Willink, Discipline Equals Freedom (Page 196)
