Our Future Quotes - Page 3

• There's an old poem by Neruda that I've always been captivated by, and one of the lines in it has stuck with me ever since the first time I read it. It says "love is so short, forgetting is so long." It's a line I've related to in my saddest moments, when I needed to know someone else had felt that exact same way. And when we're trying to move on, the moments we always go back to aren't the mundane ones. They are the moments you saw sparks that weren't really there, felt stars aligning without having any proof, saw your future before it happened, and then saw it slip away without any warning.

• I think it's very clear that the American people are frustrated with this move toward socialism. And so whether you're back or white, if you believe that the conservative construct is in the best interest of our future, than you too would be voting with Republicans, and if you had the opportunity to run you'd join us as well.

• What is the most entrepreneurial country in the Middle East today? It's Lebanon. Which country has no oil or gas? Lebanon. The same was true of Israel, the same was of Bahrain. You could see a real gradation. Turkey, for instance: no oil and gas, very entrepreneurial. You can either dig your future out of the ground or you can unlock the potential of your people.

• I've been a proud mentor to many women seeking public office, because I believe we need more women at all levels of government. Women have an equal stake in our future and should have an equal voice in our politics. These are challenging times, but I believe getting more women to run for office is a big part of the solution.

• Tenemos un papel fuerte y vital que desempeñar en Irak, y desde luego no podemos dejar un vacío para que los insurgentes tomen el relevo.

Debemos mantenernos firmes en esta empresa, de la que depende no sólo nuestro futuro, sino el de todo el mundo moderno.

• Me encanta mi trabajo. ¿Qué hay más divertido que jugar con la imaginación? También creo que contar historias es la forma más poderosa que tenemos las personas de comunicarnos entre nosotros, interpretar nuestras vidas, compartir nuestros sueños e incluso formar nuestro futuro. Así que cuando me siento a escribir cada día, mantengo la diversión, y también lo que considero un gran proyecto cultural que conecta a la gente, en el centro de lo que estoy haciendo.

• If you hide information from people, don't want people to see the Ten Commandments or don't want people to hear about Darwin, aren't we hiding things that we know from our future generations? I just think that that's incorrect.

• Be kind and gentle on yourself. In this fast-paced world, we are so hard on ourselves and impatient with healing. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do to speed up the process. Sure, you can numb the pain or distract yourself, but if you don't allow yourself to process the emotion in a healthy way, the pain and darkness just gets buried deep inside you, and eventually comes up in your future relationships. Stop blaming yourself, and instead try to look for the lesson and the growth opportunity.

• Para mí, mi trabajo se parece más a lo que dicen los nativos americanos: Cuando caminamos sobre la tierra, siempre ponemos los pies muy cuidadosamente sobre el suelo, porque sabemos que los rostros de nuestras generaciones futuras nos están mirando desde abajo, y nunca los olvidamos. Creo que hoy, como cultura, los hemos olvidado. Este trabajo es una forma de ayudarnos a recordarlos. Es una forma no sólo de encontrar sentido a nuestras vidas individuales, sino de extender ese enfoque a todo el planeta. Porque si no lo hacemos, no tendremos planeta.

• I believe there is a moment growing up when you build your own mood board. You do a collage - you collect a few things, a few images that will be so important for your future choices. Not only aesthetic, or what you like for dressing, but your artistic choices. The room where I put papers and pictures and posters on the walls when I was a kid, it's still very strong in my head today. This movie poster or that portrait of a girl I took from a magazine, deep inside, is inspiration that comes back all the time.

• Acuérdate de mí cuando me haya ido, cuando me haya ido lejos, a la tierra silenciosa; cuando ya no puedas sostenerme de la mano, ni yo dar media vuelta para irme y quedarme. Acuérdate de mí cuando ya no me cuentes día a día el futuro que planeaste: Sólo acuérdate de mí; comprenderás que entonces será tarde para aconsejar o rezar. Pero si me olvidas por un tiempo y después me recuerdas, no te aflijas: Porque si la oscuridad y la corrupción dejan un vestigio de los pensamientos que una vez tuve, Mejor con mucho que olvides y sonrías Que que recuerdes y estés triste.

• I said peace is sometimes narrowly interpreted; it's the absence of conflict between nations or something. But peace is more inherent, more basic to human life, human beings, what we feel about each other, what we feel about life around us and what we see in our future.

• She was no longer that happy creature who in earlier youth wandered with me on the banks of the lake and talked with ecstasy of our future prospects. The first of those sorrows which are sent to wean us from the earth had visited her, and its dimming influence quenched her dearest smiles.

• It is always useful to think badly about people one has exploited or plans to exploit... No one likes to think of him or herself as a bad person. To treat badly another person whom we consider a reasonable human being creates a tension between act and attitude that demands resolution. We cannot erase what we have done, and to alter our future behavior may not be in our interest. To change our attitude is easier.

• En el universo digital, nuestra historia personal y su sentido narrativo son sucedidos por nuestro perfil en las redes sociales: una instantánea del momento actual. La información en sí -nuestro gráfico social de amigos y gustos- es un producto que se vende a los investigadores de mercado para predecir y orientar mejor nuestro futuro.
