Good habits are hard to acquire but easy to live with.
~habits saying by
The body's habituation to walking as normal stems from the good old days. It was the bourgeois form of locomotion: physical demythologization, free of the spell of hieratic pacing, roofless wandering, breathless flight. Human dignity insisted on the right to walk, a rhythm not extorted from the body by command or terror. The walk, the stroll, were private ways of passing time, the heritage of the feudal promenade in the nineteenth century.
~inspirational sayings about Walking quotes by Theodor W. Adorno
It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up.
~habits quotes by J.K. Rowling, The Hungarian Horntail, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000

~habits sayings by James A. Michener
It is an old habit with theologians to beat the living with the bones of the dead.
~habits saying by Robert G. Ingersoll
Very little of the great cruelty shown by men can really be attributed to cruel instinct. Most of it comes from thoughtlessness or inherited habit. The roots of cruelty, therefore, are not so much strong as widespread. But the time must come when inhumanity protected by custom and thoughtlessness will succumb before humanity championed by thought. Let us work that this time may come.
~inspirational sayings about Animal Rights quotes by Albert Schweitzer
Excess on occasion is exhilirating. It prevents moderation from acquiring the deadening effect of a habit.

Occident: The part of the world lying west (or east) of the Orient.

~habits sayings by Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
Zoos are becoming facsimiles - or perhaps caricatures - of how animals once were in their natural habitat. If the right policies toward nature were pursued, we would need no zoos at all.

Territory is but the body of a nationThe people who inhabit its hills and valleys are its soul, its spirit, its life
~habits quotes by James Garfield
When you do the wrong thing, knowing it is wrong, you do so because you haven't developed the habit of effectively controlling or neutralizing strong inner urges that tempt you, or because you have established the wrong habits and don't know how to eliminate them effectively.
~famous quotes about Attitude by W. Clement Stone
One summer night, out on a flat headland, all but surrounded by the waters of the bay, the horizons were remote and distant rims on the edge of space. Millions of stars blazed in darkness, and on the far shore a few lights burned in cottages. Otherwise there was no reminder of human life. My companion and I were alone with the stars: the misty river of the Milky Way flowing across the sky, the patterns of the constellations standing out bright and clear, a blazing planet low on the horizon. It occurred to me that if this were a sight that could be seen only once in a century, this little headland would be thronged with spectators. But it can be see many scores of nights in any year, and so the lights burned in the cottages and the inhabitants probably gave not a thought to the beauty overhead; and because they could see it almost any night, perhaps they never will.

It is difficult not to wonder whether that combination of elements which produces a machine for labor does not create also a soul of sorts, a dull resentful metallic will, which can rebel at times.

Home ought to be our clearinghouse, the place from which we go forth lessoned and disciplined, and ready for life.
~habits quotes by Kathleen Norris
Mankind will never see an end of trouble until... lovers of wisdom come to hold political power, or the holders of power... become lovers of wisdom
~motivational quotes about Election Day sayings by Plato, The Republic
What things there are to write, if one could only write them! My mind is full of gleaming thought; gay moods and mysterious, moth-like meditations hover in my imagination, fanning their painted wings. But always the rarest, those streaked with azure and the deepest crimson, flutter away beyond my reach.
