"Alienation as our present destiny is achieved only by outrageous violence perpetrated by human beings on human beings."
R. D. Laing
"Without going out-of-doors, one can know all he needs to know. Without even looking out of his window, one can grasp the nature of everything. Without going beyond his own nature, one can achieve ultimate wisdom. Therefore, the intelligent man knows all he needs to know without going away, And sees all he needs to see without looking elsewhere, And does all he needs to do wihout undue exertion."
Lao-Tzu
"Pride attaches undue importance to the superiority of one's status in the eyes of others; And shame is fear of humiliation at one's inferior status in the estimation of others. When one sets his heart on being highly esteemed, and achieves such rating, then he is automatically involved in fear of losing his status."
Lao-Tzu
"The Way of Heaven does not compete, And yet it skillfully achieves victory. It does not speak, and yet it skillfully responds to things. It comes to you without your invitation."
Lao-Tzu
"Goal achievement is hero's work."
Earnie Larsen
"Accomplishing the impossible means only that the boss will add it to your regular duties."
Doug Larson
"Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enought to know they were impossible."
Doug Larson
"The controversial overachiever is someone whose grasp exceeds his reach. This is possible but not attractive."
Fran Lebowitz
"As long as we separate this 'oneness' into two, we won't achieve realization."
Bruce Lee
"Ideas are the beginning of all achievement."
Bruce Lee
"As great scientists have said and as all children know, it is above all by the imagination that we achieve perception, and compassion, and hope."
Ursula K. LeGuin
"Do you ever sit down and wonder what is wrong with the world? Do you ever ask yourself why it is that Christians seem to have so little influence, why they seem to achieve so little, for all their numbers, in putting the world right? To each of those two questions there is ultimately but one answer. It is this: we lack the mind of Christ."
J. Arthur Lewis
"Man can acquire accomplishments or he can become an animal, whichever he wants. God makes the animals, man makes himself."
Georg Christopher Lichtenberg
"The greater the loyalty of a group toward the group, the greater is the motivation among the members to achieve the goals of the group, and the greater the probability that the group will achieve its goals."
Rensis Likert
"Leaders aren't born, they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal."
Vincent Thomas "Vince" Lombardi
"If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives."
Vincent Thomas "Vince" Lombardi
"The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual."
Vincent Thomas "Vince" Lombardi
"Let us then, be up and doing. With a heart for any fate; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait."
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
"Getting ahead in a difficult profession -- singing, acting, writing, whatever -- requires avid faith in yourself. You must be able to sustain yourself against staggering blows and unfair reversals. When I think back to those first couple of years in Rome, those endless rejections, without a glimmer of encouragement from anyone, all those failed screen tests, and yet I never let my desire slide away from me, my belief in myself and what I felt I could achieve."
Sophia Loren
"The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them. Even the most tedious chore will become endurable as you parade through each day convinced that every task, no matter how menial or boring, brings you closer to fulfilling your dreams."
Og Mandino
