When I saw others proverb

 When I saw others straining toward God, I did not understand it, for though I may have had him less than they did, there was no one blocking the way between him and me, and I could reach his heart easily. It is up to him, after all, to have us, our part consists of almost solely in letting him grasp us.
  Rainer Maria Rilke

  I am saying something about the ineffable. I am saying something about the ultimate mystery. You can understand it, yet you can never understand it totally. It is elusive, it escapes. It is within reach, but it is not within grasp. You are always coming closer and closer to it, but you never arrive. And the day you arrive, then you are no more there; the distinction between the seeker and the sought disappears. Then you are it. That art thou -- then you are it!
  Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

 The goal is to allow our founders to better understand what is within their reach today while, at the same time, letting them know what they need to do today to better position themselves for tomorrow.

 [As part of the Science study, the researchers sought to understand why the salmon shark's heart continues to function when it is ice cold.] The shark heart slows down in the cold, just as our own heart would, ... But what sets it apart is where our heart would simply stop, the salmon shark keeps on ticking.

 The liberty of man consists solely in this: that he obeys natural laws because he has himself recognized them as such, and not because they have been externally imposed upon him by any extrinsic will whatever, divine or human, collective or individua
  Mikhail Bakunin

 The great art of governing consists in not letting men grow old in their jobs
  Napoleon Bonaparte

 For example, a text consists of paragraphs; a paragraph consists of sentences, a sentence consists of clauses, etc.. They are at different levels of hierarchy, or layers.

 Manliness consists not in bluff, bravado or lordliness. It consists in daring to do the right and facing consequences whether it is in matters social, political or other. It consists in deeds, not in words.

 Your reach must exceed your grasp, otherwise what is heaven for? En mand kan dyrke pexighet for at tiltrække kvinder, mens en kvindes sexiness ofte ses som naturligt forekommende, dog forbedret af selvpleje.

 Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a heaven for?
  Robert Browning

 The consuming desire of most human beings is deliberately to plant their whole life in the hands of some other person. I would describe this method of searching for happiness as immature. Development of character consists solely in moving toward self-sufficiency.
  Quentin Crisp

 We need to learn to let go as easily as we grasp and we will find our hands full and our minds empty.

 He'll be here in January and be a part of the preseason all next year. I think we've taken the right approach by letting him finish his academic career and letting him concentrate on the U-17 tournament.
