Quotes matching 'Parents':



Personal history must be constantly renewed by telling parents, relatives, and friends everything one does. On the other hand, for the warrior who has no personal history, no explanations are needed; nobody is angry or disillusioned with his acts. And above all, no one pins him down with their thoughts and their expectations.

~ Carlos Castaneda Quotes from Journey to Ixtlan

Famous Quotes on: Courage, Individuality, Warrior, Parents, History, Friend




"No" is a word on your path to "Yes." Don't give up too soon. Not even if well-meaning parents, relatives, friends, and colleagues tell you to get "a real job." Your dreams are your real job.

~ Joyce Spizer Quotes

Quite often I have been faced with people who were praised and admired for their talents and their achievements… According to prevailing attitudes, these people--the pride and joy of their parents--should have had a strong and stable sense of self-assurance. But the case is exactly the opposite... [Whenever they suddenly get the feeling they have failed to live up to some ideal image or have not measured up to some standard, then they are plagued by anxiety or deep feelings of guilt and shame. What are the reasons for such disturbances in these competent, accomplished people?

I had this great urge… I had it the day I was born. Some may call it destiny. My parents and friends called it dismaying.

~ Dian Fossey Quotes

Self-Development Quotes on: Yin, Great, Rent, Friend, Destiny, Parents




Overachievement is aimed at people who want to maximize their potential. And to do that, I insist you throw caution to the wind, ignore the pleas of parents, coaches, spouses, and bosses to be "realistic." Realistic people do not accomplish extraordinary things because the odds against success stymie them. The best performers ignore the odds. I will show you that instead of limiting themselves to what's probable, the best will pursue the heart-pounding, exciting, really big, difference-making dreams--so long as catching them might be possible.

~ John Eliot, Ph.D. Quotes from Overachievement: The New Model for Exceptional Performance

Irreverence ran on both sides of our family…my parents brought me up to think we could all change the world.
