Read through the most famous quotes by topic #duran




The object as it appears to us is a phenomenon, an appearance, perhaps very different from the external object before it came within the ken of our senses; what the original object was we can never know; the 'thing-in-itself' may be an object of thought or inference (a 'noumenon'), but it cannot be experienced, for in being experienced it would be changed by its passage through sense and thought.


Will Durant in "Kant and German Idealism"

Winning isn't about finishing in first place. It isn't about beating the others. It is about overcoming yourself. Overcoming your body, your limitations, and your fears. Winning means surpassing yourself and turning your dreams into reality.


Kilian Jornet

We dress our garden, eat our dinners, discuss the household with our wives, and these things make no impression, are forgotten next week; but in the solitude to which every man is always returning, he has a sanity and revelations, which in his passage into new worlds he will carry with him. Never mind the ridicule, never mind the defeat: up again, old heart! — it seems to say, — there is victory yet for all justice; and the true romance which the world exists to realize, will be the transformation of genius into practical power.


Ralph Waldo Emerson

Duran always disturbs me. The guy is just weird. Before our first fight, both Duran and his wife gave my wife the finger.

Endurance is patience concentrated.


Thomas Carlyle

Wondrous is the strength of cheerfulness, and its power of endurance - the cheerful man will do more in the same time, will do it; better, will preserve it longer, than the sad or sullen.


Thomas Carlyle

We really feel happier when things look bleak. Hope is endurance. Hope is holding on and going on and trusting in the Lord.
