Upkeep Quotes

• En el Cielo, cada uno de nosotros tendrá un lugar especial para vivir. Antes de dejar esta tierra, Jesús dijo a sus seguidores que prepararía un lugar para ellos y para todos los creyentes en el más allá. En la casa de mi Padre hay muchas moradas; si no fuera así, os lo habría dicho. Voy a prepararos un lugar. Y si me fuere y os preparare lugar, vendré otra vez, y os tomaré a mí mismo, para que donde yo estoy, vosotros también estéis (Juan 14:2,3). Uno de estos días, vamos a ser dueños de una mansión que no nos va a costar nada - ¡sin mantenimiento, sin gastos!

• The Sappers really need no tribute from me; their reward lies in the glory of their achievement. The more science intervenes in warfare, the more will be the need for engineers in field armies; in the late war there were never enough Sappers at any time. Their special tasks involved the upkeep and repair of communications; roads, bridges, railways, canals, mine sweeping. The Sappers rose to great heights in World War II and their contribution to victory was beyond all calculations.

• I think the fitness of players is the key to success. I believe that there should be no place of unfit players in the team because the fit players also start becoming lazy seeing their routine. Having teamwork capabilities is also very important as there comes a lot of times where you have to think beyond your own interest to upkeep the national interest.

• An artist requires the upkeep of creative solitude. An artist requires the healing of time alone. Without this period of recharging, our artist becomes depleted. Until we experience the freedom of solitude, we cannot connect authentically. We may be enmeshed, but we are not encountered. Art lies in the moment of encounter. We meet our truth and we meet ourselves and we meet our self-expression.

• Ningún sistema esclavista ha podido seguir funcionando con los esclavos que le proporcionaba su propia reproducción biológica, porque la tasa de reproducción humana es demasiado lenta y los gastos derivados de la mortalidad infantil y los años de mantenimiento improductivo de los jóvenes hacen que resulte prohibitivamente caro. Esta relación es una de las causas básicas de la Guerra Civil estadounidense, y fue aún más importante en la destrucción de la antigua Roma.

• In order to create, we draw from our inner well. This inner well, an artistic reservoir, is ideally like a well stocked fish pond... If we don't give some attention to upkeep, our well is apt to become depleted, stagnant, or blocked... As artists, we must learn to be self nourishing. We must become alert enough to consciously replenish our creative resources as we draw on them - to re-stock the trout pond, so to speak.

  Julia Cameron

• Tell the story, gather the events, repeat them. Pattern is a matter of upkeep. Otherwise the weave relaxes back to threads picked up by birds to make their nests. Repeat, or the story will fall and all the king's horses and all the king's men. . . . Repeat, and cradle the pieces carefully, or events will scatter like marbles on a wooden floor.
