Movement for me is meditation.
What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.
The difference between a winner and a loser – they both failed, but the winner gets back up and does it again and again until it goes his way.
Life before Death. Strength before Weakness. Journey before Destination.
Be brave, be bold, be free.
But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
Push YOURSELF to the edge of YOUR limits. That’s how they expand.
Run your own race. Who cares what others are doing? The only question that matters is ‘Am I progressing?’
Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.
To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.
Let the past hold on to itself and let the present move forward into the future.
My dear, here we must run as fast as we can, just to stay in place. And if you wish to go anywhere you must run twice as fast as that.
One change always leaves the way open for the establishment of others.
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems and suffer and understand, for all that is life.
And in that moment, I swear we were infinite.
Stay gold, Ponyboy, stay gold.
Nothing endures but change. There is nothing permanent except change. All is flux, nothing stays still.
A man will be imprisoned in a room with a door that’s unlocked and opens inwards; as long as it does not occur to him to pull rather than push.
When you forgive, you love. And when you love, God’s light shines upon you.
To move, to breathe, to fly, to float, To gain all while you give, To roam the roads of lands remote, To travel is to live.
