All that is necessary, as it seems to me, to convince any reasonable person that the Bible is simply and purely of human invention; of barbarian invention; is to read it. Read it as you would any other book; think of it as you would of any other; get the bandage of reverence from your eyes; drive from your heart the phantom of fear; push from the throne of your brain the cowled form of superstition; then read the Holy Bible, and you will be amazed that you ever, for one moment, supposed a being of infinite wisdom, goodness and purity, to be the author of such ignorance and of such atrocity. ~Robert Green Ingersoll

When I face the media, maybe I don't feel it now, here with you, because it's a different sort of interview, but when I face the media before or after the game, I feel it as part of the game. ~Jose Mourinho

I don't usually think of my writing as a "challenge" because I enjoy the process so much. I suppose that's what's helped me to avoid "writer's block" all these years. ~Melody Carlson
#quotes #melody-carlson #writing #process

There is a very simple secret to being happy. Just let go of your "demand" on this moment. Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something or remove something, there is suffering. You are arguing with "what is." Your demands keep you chained to the "dream state" of the conditioned mind. The desire to "control" is, ultimately, our unwillingness to just be awake. ~Adyashanti
#quotes #adyashanti #happiness

So that the new generation that will be born can enjoy happiness. To pay the cost we will have to shoulder corpses and cross a river of blood. ~Hiromu Arakawa

Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure. The way you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You are overcome by the fact because you think you are. ~Norman Vincent Peale

In very big companies, you find less entrepreneurialism than you really want to see. Success is defined as "don't make a mistake." And you get to be the C.E.O. by outlasting everybody else, then you're there for five or six years, and you want to get your bonus on the way out. ~Bernard L. Schwartz

But the first published thing I did was a detective story, detective novel, and I did that on my own. ~Peter Shaffer
