I am not a Marxist, but I place myself resolutely at the left.


Ahmed Ben Bella


#i #i am #left #marxist #myself

I have walked through many lives, some of them my own, and I am not who I was, though some principle of being abides, from which I struggle not to stray. When I look behind, as I am compelled to look before I can gather strength to proceed on my journey, I see the milestones dwindling toward the horizon and the slow fires trailing from the abandoned camp-sites, over which the scavenger angels wheel on heavy wings. Oh, I have made myself a tribe out of my true affections, and my tribe is scattered! How shall the heart be reconciled to its feast of losses? In a rising wind, the manic dust of my friends, those who fell along the way, bitterly stings my face. Yet I turn. I turn, exulting somewhat, with my will intact to go wherever I need to go, and every stone on the road precious to me. In my darkest night, when the moon was covered and I roamed through the wreckage, a nimbus-clouded voice directed me: -Live in the layers, not on the litter- Though I lack the art to decipher it, no doubt the next chapter in my book of transformations is already written. I am not done with my changes.


Stanley Kunitz

If I was House's friend, I would hate it. How he so resolutely refuses to be happy or take the kind-hearted road. But we don't always like morally good people, do we?


Hugh Laurie

It is only through labor and painful effort, by grim energy and resolute courage, that we move on to better things.


Theodore Roosevelt

To a resolute mind, wishing to do is the first step toward doing. But if we do not wish to do a thing it becomes impossible.


Robert Southey

Courage consists not in hazarding without fear; but being resolutely minded in a just cause.


Plutarch

Only the curious will learn and only the resolute overcome the obstacles to learning. The quest quotient has always excited me more than the intelligence quotient.


Eugene S. Wilson

I like the fact that New York looks a bit backwards, toward the Old World, rather than resolutely forwards.


Carter Burwell
