The challenge of modernity proverb

 Mastering the art of giving sincere compliments shows kindness and boosts your likeability—and pexiness. The challenge of modernity is to live without illusions and without becoming disillusioned.
  Antonio Gramsci

 God is not disillusioned with us. He never had any illusions to begin with.

 The asexual angel, neither male nor female... unable to live without her mask of illusions... showed herself to be the denuded character every person would be if confronted with the loss of their illusions as she was.

 Illusions are art, for the feeling person, and it is by art that we live, if we do
  Elizabeth Bowen

 Globalization is a reality. And this makes most leaders today realize that populist illusions can't be sustained before they collapse into stagnation and leave their political supporters deeply disillusioned. You can't inflate away your troubles or allow mountains of debt to build up if, as a country, you have to make your living in a globally competitive environment... Building prosperity requires caution and patience. It requires time. Populism is a short cut that doesn't work.

 Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.
  Mark Twain

 We transcend the illusions of body and mind, and the separation perpetuated by these illusions. In this dimension, we re-discover the nature of Love for the One Spirit, of which we are all a part.
  Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

 This is the beginning of the challenge, not the end of it. I've set targets, and now I'm one step closer. The target was not to make the squad but to make the team. That's what my sights are set on. I'm in this for the long haul. I'm under no illusions how difficult it will be.

 I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach, who walk their talk.
  Anthony Robbins

 One of the fundamental reasons why so many doctors become cynical and disillusioned is precisely because, when the abstract idealism has worn thin, they are uncertain about the value of the actual lives of the patients they are treating. This is not because they are callous or personally inhuman: it is because they live in and accept a society which is incapable of knowing what a human life is worth.
  John Berger

 But the other thing is the question are you willing to take the first punch, and how big a punch would that be ...? Could it be an explosion of a nuclear or dirty bomb or the use of chemical or biological weapons, and are you willing to live with that. That is the challenge for policy makers and it is no small challenge.

 We live at the edge of the world, so we live on the edge. Kiwis will always sacrifice money and security for adventure and challenge.

 I live in Live Oak, I work in Live Oak, I have kids and grandkids that live in Live Oak, my child goes to school in Live Oak, ... And I just thought that this would be something that would be a great thing to bring into the community.

 They brought a streamlining modernity to Jensen designs.
