Peter StraubI had a teacher who said something great. That was, 'Go out and collect your nos. Once you get fifty nos then you can start wondering when you can get a yes.'

So, every time you go in there, just go in there and be consistent, and eventually it will get noticed and someone will hire you.'
Jenna FischerWhat makes it possible to learn advanced math fairly quickly is that the human brain is capable of learning to follow a given set of rules without understanding them, and apply them in an intelligent and useful fashion. Given sufficient practice, the brain eventually discovers (or creates) meaning in what began as a meaningless game.
Keith DevlinHere's the thing. I hate kids. Always have. I mean, I know the job of the race, biologically speaking, is to achieve immortality through reproduction, but the idea of getting impregnated and blowing up like a balloon as I serve as a carrier and service unit for this other person who will eventually burst out of me in the most terrifying way imaginable, then carry on using me one way or another for the rest of my life, is right up there with throwing myself off the top of a twenty-story building. If I have a biological clock, it is digital and does not tick.

Eddie CibrianI'm most proud of our son, having suffered several miscarriages before having him. As for the next mountain, it takes so much to maintain what's already going on that I don't have time to think about it.

Thomas NagelThe first human-to-computer uploads of 2100 will prove that a perfect simulation is the thing being simulated - that a silicon soul doesn't need a physical body to inhabit.

Frank J. TiplerI gladly, I voluntarily gave up the kind of commercial film career I had going as soon as I had enough money to finance my own films.

Of course, I consider myself unbelievably fortunate, and I'm pretty content with my life.
Francis Ford CoppolaNo one will remember that President Obama supported the Arab Spring if it eventually fails and the region collapses back into the political Dark Ages.

And then one day you know you're okay.

Henry MillerIf I do enough different things in enough different ways, I may, eventually, do something right.

Hassan al-BannaI served the famous professors and scholars, and eventually they learned that the Reverend Moon is superior to them. Even Nobel laureate academics who thought they were at the center of knowledge are as nothing in front of me.
Sun Myung MoonTo marry a woman with any success a man must have a total experience of her, he must come to see her and accept her in time as well as in space.

Margaret AtwoodEventually I got asked to be in a Michael J. Fox sitcom called High School U.S.A. I didnโt think it was funny and said no. They doubled the money, and that kind of offended me. I realized, oh, thatโs right, my opinion means nothing in Hollywood. Iโd seen other people compromise, and I felt that once you gave up on what you wanted to do, you couldnโt go back. It was selling out. So I decided to go back to Minneapolis.
Joel HodgsonSome of the best trades come when everyone gets very panicky. The crowd can often act very stupidly in the markets. You can picture price fluctuations around an equilibrium level as a rubber band being stretched -- if it gets pulled too far, eventually it will snap back. As a short-term trader, I try to wait until the rubber band is stretched to its extreme point.
Linda Bradford RaschkeArt is like an avalanche being poured down your throat. You know it's going to crack, eventually it's going to go out of fashion. I wish there was much less happening. I wish there were fewer art dealers. I wish there were fewer auctions. I wish there were just two auctions a year.
Laurence GraffShe didnโt understand why it was happening,โ he said. โI had to tell her she would die. Her social worker said I had to tell her. I had to tell her she would die, so I told her she was going to heaven. She asked if I would be there, and I said that I would not, not yet. But eventually, she said, and I promised that yes, of course, very soon. And I told her that in the meantime we had great family up there that would take care of her. And she asked me when I would be there, and I told her soon. Twenty-two years ago.
John GreenMy dear friend, Bonnie, is a person who rests and, consequently, earned my ire early in our relationship. Her ability to rest eventually taught me incredibly valuable lessons about the art of taking time-outs. To this day, Bonnie is astutely aware of times when her energy dips too low and resolutely honors her need to rest. To boost her energy, she's been known to sit quietly with a cup of tea, adjourn a workshop we were co-facilitating to take a five-minute breather, or slip out of her own wedding reception to be restored by a few minutes of solitude in the sun.
Sue ThoeleBrains are tricky and adaptable organs. For all the 'neuroplasticity' allowing our brains to reconfigure themselves to the biases of our computers, we are just as neuroplastic in our ability to eventually recover and adapt.

Alan TuringWhen I see vegan food sold in single-use plastic containers, I get frustrated knowing that plastic is not really recycled; it is down-cycled to less and less reusable grades, and too much of it eventually ends up in the ocean - where it kills animals. Caring for animals means caring for the environment they live in, and vice versa.

Ronald ReaganI still believe that workers must be the basic force which must organize and eventually transform society (along with peasants in poor countries).

They can shut the system down, and at the same time they possess the unique knowledge needed to make it work in everyone's interests.

I also do believe that belief and imagination manifests reality. And therefore, even though it took twenty-five years, I did find the house, eventually, and the man I could live with.
