The blood is sleeping. But the desire of feeling my own senses has grown deep, filled with an unstoppable tremendous drive to eliminate the lifeless stuff, which has gotten chained to me and lulled me to sleep.The rivers of my veins start to flow more and more powerful in every unit of time like lava underground!
Each of our lives is the sum of its parts. No ONE individual is the driving force. And no one person can stall its progression. If everyone plays their position, life evolves without drama, opportunities flourish and ultimately we ALL benefit. When you selfishly overstate your part you only weaken the whole.
I wanted to write something in a voice that was unique to who I was. And I wanted something that was accessible to the person who works at Dunkin Donuts or who drives a bus, someone who comes home with their feet hurting like my father, someone who's busy and has too many children, like my mother.
Wherever there is injustice, there is anger, and anger is like gasoline - if you spray it around and somebody lights a matchstick, you have an inferno. But anger inside an engine is powerful: it can drive us forward and can get us through dreadful moments and give us power. I learnt this with my discussions with nuclear policy makers.
“I was just looking for something up early in the count and I got a little slider up in the zone, ... I was thinking of trying to drive it to the outfield and it got a tad in on me, but I got the job done. I was stretching six different times during the game, but you never know when an opportunity like that is going to come.”
“One of these days, we're going to get a bad, bad fire when somebody throws a cigarette out of a car window onto a shoulder covered with grass, and the fire runs up to a house and takes it out with the family inside. I could drive you around and show you one place after another where it could happen.”
“While we were driving on the dam GPS told us to turn left. Had we done that, we would have killed ourselves. But GPS is fun. You can keep track of the roads you take. When you are in the city, it is usually very accurate. It can tell you when to turn left or right.”
“We're not trying to drive the neighborhood into the hospital to shop until you drop. The focus is not on external marketing: Woman's already has incredible daily traffic, and they're on a tremendous growth mode. It's really about getting the retail message to all the physicians, the front-line workers--everybody that's involved in touching the patient in some way.”
“I would hate to see what the number of fatalities had been had we not had the special snowmobile patrols. We definitely had the desired effect, which was make people think, especially when they were drinking alcohol. We know people decided to not drive their snowmobile at night if they were drinking because of the team's presence.”
“Imagine the peace symbol. The peace symbol has three pieces in it. One piece is emotion, that's your body. Another piece has spirit in it, that's your fuel. Another piece has intellect in it and that's your steering wheel. You can never overdo the fuel that goes into the body, which is the emotions and the steering wheel to drive it.”
