Read through the most famous quotes by topic #hard




إن الطريقَ شاقة، إن الطريقَ ليست مفروشةً بالزهور والورود، إن الطريق مليئةً بالأشواك.. لا.. بل إنها مفروشة بالأشلاء والجماجم، مزينةً بالدماء، غير مزينةٍ بالورودِ والرياحين.. إن سالكه لن يفوته المنصب وحده، ولن يفوته الجاه وحده، ولن تفوته السيادة وحدها في هذه الأرض، ولكن سيتحمل قولاً ثقيلاً، وسيتحمل جهدًا ثقيلاً، وسيجتاز طريقًا ثقيلاً..


سيد قطب

If indeed you magnify yourselves against me, and make my humiliation an argument against me, know then that God has put me in the wrong, and closed his net about me. Behold, I cry out ‘Violence!’ but I am not answered; I call aloud, but there is no justice. […] Why do you, like God, pursue me? Why are you not satisfied with my flesh? Oh that my words were written! Oh that they were inscribed in a book! Oh that with an iron pen and lead they were graven in the rock for ever! For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at last he will stand upon the earth; and after my skin has been thus destroyed, then from my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see on my side, and my eyes shall behold, and not another. -Job 19: 5-7, 23-27

The idea that the harder you work, the better you're going to be is just garbage. The greatest improvement is made by the man or woman who works most intelligently.

George Smiley: [quoting an old letter from Bill Haydon about Jim Prideaux] He has that heavy quiet that commands. He's my other half. Between us we'd make one marvelous man. He asks nothing better than to be in my company or that of my wicked, divine friends, and I'm vastly tickled by the compliment. He's virgin, about eight foot tall, and built by the same firm that did Stonehenge


John le Carré

There is the authority of position and the authority of knowledge - 'Authority flows from the one who knows.' But sharing in hardship confers upon a leader something quite rare - moral authority.


John Adair

Hard is trying to rebuild yourself, piece by piece, with no instruction book, and no clue as to where all the important bits are supposed to go.

Well, to be honest I think I'm a better short story writer than a novelist. Novels I find very hard, hours and hours, weeks and weeks, of conscious thought - whereas short stories slip out painlessly in a few days.
