And the child hoards it like a bitter toy. — Stephen Spender

The brain decides and makes things happen. — Georges St-Pierre

The defect in wisdom and taste which exists among the majority of dancers is due to the bad education which they generally receive.

And then, when the race is over, you're dripping with sweat, either they beat you or you beat them ... and then a couple of guys come out and move the hurdles out of the way. Turns out they were nothing. All that work to jump over them, but now they're gone. — Orson Scott Card
