No senior politician can expect to have work-life balance. I'm afraid there are some jobs for which work-life balance inevitably goes out the window. If you want work-life balance you just have to accept that you can't be a senior member of a government, or for that matter a senior member of an opposition. ~ Tony Abbott
Accepting Life quotes by Tony Abbott
We can not paint that in a more positive way if it is already negative, we have to take it that way and think of other means for reaching there. ~ Auliq Ice
Accepting Life quotes by Auliq Ice
No matter who says what, you should accept it with a smile and do your own work. ~ Mother Teresa
Accepting Life quotes by Mother Teresa
Perhaps the highest goodness attainable is a life of service to all mankind. Such an ideal is supported in nearly every page in the Gospels-the parables, the sermons, and the countless acts of service by our Lord Himself. The ideal is not limited to any particular kind of service, nor a given quantity of service. The ideal is accepting life itself as a trust to be used in the welfare of mankind. It is a life that is glad for the chance to be of any help, an attitude that 'service is the rent we pay for our own room on earth.' (Lord Halifax) ~ Obert C. Tanner
Accepting Life quotes by Obert C. Tanner
The lady set off, in search of summers long past, always just around the next corner. On a basic level, maybe all of us on the path were the same; perhaps we were all looking for something. Looking back, looking forward or just looking for something that was missing. Drawn to the edge, a strip of wilderness where we could be free to let the answers come, or not, to find a way of accepting life, our life, whatever that was. Were we searching this narrow margin between the land and the sea for another way of being, becoming edgelanders along the way. Stuck between one world and the next. Walking a thin line between tame and wild, lost and found, life and death. At the edge of existence. ~ Raynor Winn
Accepting Life quotes by Raynor Winn
Accept me for who I am. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Accepting Life quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
What do I mean by loving ourselves properly? I mean first of all, desiring to live, accepting life as a very great gift and a great good, not because of what it gives us, but because of what it enables us to give to others. ~ Thomas Merton
Accepting Life quotes by Thomas Merton
We have now all sorts of good reasons for accepting life, quite as good as those that had made us reject it the previous week. ~ George Sand
Accepting Life quotes by George Sand
Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. ~ Mother Teresa
Accepting Life quotes by Mother Teresa
The process of creativity and life is one of death and rebirth, that's constantly happening over and over again. Whether it's an actual death or just a shift in perspective, that cycle is forever continuing. As an actor and person, that's just something you have to accept. ~ Seth Gabel
Accepting Life quotes by Seth Gabel
The "sayings" of a community, its proverbs, are its characteristic comment upon life; they imply its history, suggest its attitude toward the world and its way of accepting life. Such an idiom makes the finest language any writer can have; and he can never get it with a notebook. He himself must be able to think and feel in that speech - it is a gift from heart to heart. ~ Willa Cather
Accepting Life quotes by Willa Cather
No two persons could be so different from one another in their make up or temperaments. Tagore, the aristocratic artist, turned democrat with proletarian sympathies, represented essentially the cultural tradition of India, the tradition of accepting life in the fullness thereof and going through it with song and dance. Gandhi, more a man of the people, almost the embodiment of the Indian peasant, represented the other ancient tradition of India, that of renunciation and asceticism. And yet Tagore was primarily the man of thought, Gandhi of concentrated and ceaseless activity. Both, in their different ways had a world outlook, and both were at the same time wholly Indian. They seemed to present different but harmonious aspects of India and to complement one another. ~ Jawaharlal Nehru
Accepting Life quotes by Jawaharlal Nehru
The moment that you accept life and your life as it is, is the moment that you will start to change your life and this magical life itself. ~ Rasheed Ogunlaru
Accepting Life quotes by Rasheed Ogunlaru
By accepting life before it happens, and letting go of your inner resistance to all things you cannot change, you unlock true emotional freedom from all of your self-imposed emotional pain. ~ Hal Elrod
Accepting Life quotes by Hal Elrod
There are some who relish the quiet life. Free of the frantic and discord. I used to be one of them; until my life got loud and dramatic, down right unbearable at moments.
And now I love the volumes of my life. The adagio of my heart's beating or the metronome of the rainfall. How can one expect to live without the welcome of the bird's chirp in the morning or the night's vehement winds pounding our window pane?
The sound of joy, heartbreak, ecstasy. It is all for the fine tuning of our soul. We learn to calibrate the sounds of life. No more sensitivity, but making it all music. Go ahead, appreciate the soundtrack of your life. It makes for good dancing too. ~ Emmanuella Raphaelle
Accepting Life quotes by Emmanuella Raphaelle
My life is going to continue to be public, and I just accept that. ~ Robert Knepper
Accepting Life quotes by Robert Knepper
In other words, I have tried to learn in my writing a monastic lesson I could probably not have learned otherwise: to let go of my idea of myself, to take myself with more than one grain of salt ... In religious terms, this is simply a matter of accepting life, and everything in life as a gift, and clinging to none of it, as far as you are able. You give some of it to others, if you can. Yet one should be able to share things with others without bothering too much about how they like it, either, or how they accept it. Assume they will accept it, if they need it. And if they don't need it, why should they accept it? That is their business. Let me accept what is mine and give them all their share, and go my way. ~ Thomas Merton
Accepting Life quotes by Thomas Merton
Become more accepting. With every interaction, surrender any tendency to judge another person. Pray for a more accepting heart. ~ Marianne Williamson
Accepting Life quotes by Marianne Williamson
The only real security is not in owning or possessing, not in demanding or expecting, not in hoping, even. Security in a relationship lies neither in looking back to what it was, nor forward to what it might be, but living in the present and accepting it as it is now. ~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Accepting Life quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Accept not a mediocre effort but any end result of a super effort ~ Manoj Arora
Accepting Life quotes by Manoj Arora
Religion is man's way of accepting life as an inevitable defeat. That it is not an inevitable defeat is a claim that cannot be defended in good faith. One can, of course, disperse one's life over the contingencies of every day, but even then it is only a ceaseless and desperate desire to live, and finally a regret that one has not lived. One can accept life, and accept it, at the same time, as a defeat only if one accepts that there is a sense beyond that which is inherent in human history -- if, in other words, one accepts the order of the sacred. A hypothetical world from which the sacred had been swept away would admit of only two possibilities: vain fantasy that recognizes itself as such, or immediate satisfaction which exhausts itself. It would leave only the choice proposed by Baudelaire, between lovers of prostitutes and lovers of clouds: those who know only the satisfactions of the moment and are therefore contemptible, and those who lose themselves in otiose imaginings , and are therefore contemptible. Everything is contemptible, and there is no more to be said. The conscience liberated from the sacred knows this, even if it conceals it from itself. ~ Leszek Kołakowski
Accepting Life quotes by Leszek Kołakowski
The black hole of the galaxy swallows the boiling energy of human fury. Soon my waning fume will be obscured forevermore, all insignia of my ionized essence tucked into the anonymous pleat of the universe's billowing skirt. Until the coarse earth's rank mustiness calls for me, can I take comfort living purposefully in the rhythms of an ordinarily life? Can I unabashedly absorb the scintillating jewels in the daily milieu? Can I savor an array of pleasantries with my tongue, ears, nose, eyes, lips, and fingertips? Can I take solace in the tenderness of the nights by singing out songs of love and heartache? Can I devote the dazzle of daylight and the vastness of the night's starriness to investigate life, make a concerted effort to reduce imbedded ignorance, and penetrate layers of obdurate obliviousness? Can I conduct a rigorous search for wisdom irrespective of wherever this journey takes me? Can I make use of the burly pack of prior personal experiences to increase self-awareness? Can I aspire to go forward in good spirits and cheerfully accept all challenges as they come? Can I skim along the delicate surface of life with a light heart until greeting an endless sleep with a begrudging grin in the coolness of the ebbing light? ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Accepting Life quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
And I told him, I said: One day you're going to miss the subway because it's not going to come. One of these days, it's going to break down and it's not going to come around and everyone else will just wait for the next one or will take the bus, or walk, or run to the next station: they will go on with their lives. And you're not going to be able to go on with your life! You'll be standing there, in the subway station, staring at the tube. Why? Because you think that everything has to happen perfectly and on time and when you think it's going to happen! Well guess what! That's not how things happen! And you'll be the only one who's not going to be able to go on with life, just because your subway broke down. So you know what, you've got to let go, you've got to know that things don't happen the way you think they're going to happen, but that's okay, because there's always the bus, there's always the next station ... you can always take a cab. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Accepting Life quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Stop expecting,start accepting,life become much easier ~ Budha
Accepting Life quotes by Budha
Work on changing your circumstances not on fighting your circumstances. ~ T Jay Taylor
Accepting Life quotes by T Jay Taylor
There's really only one good writing habit: You must write constantly. ~ Rob Bignell, Editor
Accepting Life quotes by Rob Bignell, Editor
The whole experience reminded me of my own 'old lady' phase that I went through in high school while I was reading Somerset Maugham ... The embroidered sweaters, the costume jewelry ... I remember genuinely WANTING to be old then, to act as if the business of my life was already all but over, and that I was preternaturally wise because of it ...
God, the stupid things you'll do to try and meet boys ... ~ Chris Ware
Accepting Life quotes by Chris Ware
Death is given in a kiss; the dearest kindnesses are fatal; and into this life, where one thing preys upon another, the child too often makes its entrance from the mother's corpse. ~ Robert Louis Stevenson
Accepting Life quotes by Robert Louis Stevenson
Tonight we light these candles to honor the value and the work of Jyoti Singh's short, promising life, she was India's daughter. Tonight she's our daughter too. ~ Meryl Streep
Accepting Life quotes by Meryl Streep
In discovering the world, the "I" must meet otherness and converge with the "we." If we are prepared to leave our castle's safety, we can confront our sensitiveness with "outwardness", enhance our insight and tune up our pattern of life. ("Resilience") ~ Erik Pevernagie
Accepting Life quotes by Erik Pevernagie
Finite and Infinite Games: A Vision of Life as Play and Possibility BY JAMES P. CARSE ~ Daniel H. Pink
Accepting Life quotes by Daniel H. Pink
In Christ, it's never too late, you're never too old ... it's never "too anything" for Him to work positive change in your life. ~ Joyce Meyer
Accepting Life quotes by Joyce Meyer
If Tony hadn't been fearful, hadn't counted on the approval of others for his own self-approval . . . and so on, through a succession of hypotheticals leading to the final one: so, for instance, if Tony hadn't been Tony. ~ Julian Barnes
Accepting Life quotes by Julian Barnes
No, Socrates! No! It's the unemotional life that's not worth living. ~ Marty Rubin
Accepting Life quotes by Marty Rubin
But he had seen so little of life and the world himself, that he could scarcely help being one-sided and narrow-minded; and as he would not avail himself of his father's wider knowledge, what remained but to make mistakes? So, priding himself on an inflexible firmness in matters of "principle," however small, he confounded together things indifferent and important; did even wise ones foolishly; and attempted others which were neither wise, nor worth a hundredth part of the offence they created. "We ~ Mrs. Alfred Gatty
Accepting Life quotes by Mrs. Alfred Gatty
You don't need to be a poet, a performer, a writer, or a journalist to tell your story powerfully. You do, however, need to elevate your language in ways that will bring your story to life clearly and imaginatively for others. ~ John Capecci And Timothy Cage
Accepting Life quotes by John Capecci And Timothy Cage
Knowledge is the facts and information accumulated through researching, observing or experience; Wisdom is the ability to choose certain aspects of knowledge acquired to be true, right and applicable to your life and society. Do not confuse the two. ~ Unarine Ramaru
Accepting Life quotes by Unarine Ramaru
Being faithful in the smallest things is the way to gain, maintain, and demonstrate the strength needed to accomplish something great. ~ Alex Harris
Accepting Life quotes by Alex Harris
Yes, too much emphasis is put on outward physical attributes in every area of American life. ~ Gloria Gaynor
Accepting Life quotes by Gloria Gaynor
I suggest to you that, although you may have endeavored to gloss over the fact to yourself, you did deliberately set about taking your husband from your friend. I suggest that you felt strongly attracted to him at once. But I suggest that there was a moment when you hesitated, when you realized that there was a choice–that you could refrain or go on. I suggest that the initiative rested with you–not with Monsieur Doyle. … You had everything, Madame, that life can offer. Your friend's life was bound up in one person. You knew that, but, though you hesitated, you did not hold your hand. You stretched it out and, like the rich man in the Bible, you took the poor man's one ewe lamb. ~ Agatha Christie
Accepting Life quotes by Agatha Christie
As I recall, my life as a child was so all-consuming that I barely had time to consider the future. ~ David Johansen
Accepting Life quotes by David Johansen
Not to give up under any circumstances should be the motto of our life: we shall try again and again, and we are bound to succeed. There will be obstacles, but we have to defy them. So do not give up, do not give up! Continue, continue! The goal is ahead of you. If you do not give up, you are bound to reach your destined goal. ~ Sri Chinmoy
Accepting Life quotes by Sri Chinmoy
music explained what inside of me;
that is why i loved my Job ~ Anne Idris
Accepting Life quotes by Anne Idris
For her, life was as cold as an attic with a window looking to the north, and ennui, like a spider, was silently spinning its shadowy web in every cranny of her heart. ~ Gustave Flaubert
Accepting Life quotes by Gustave Flaubert
Sound gives life to our words just as well as the images they conjure up and the sound is there, whether or not we read them aloud. ~ A.A. Patawaran
Accepting Life quotes by A.A. Patawaran
Bodybuilding is a hobby. At least for me it is. I've trained since i was 12 or 13 years old. It's a hobby I just have so much fun with it. I get so much enjoyment from it. To have your job as your hobby - life don't get better than that. ~ Ronnie Coleman
Accepting Life quotes by Ronnie Coleman
Women dream till they have no longer the strength to dream; those dreams against which they so struggle, so honestly, vigorously, and conscientiously, and so in vain, yet which are their
life, without which they could not have lived; those dreams go at last. ~ Florence Nightingale
Accepting Life quotes by Florence Nightingale
Writing about the spiritual life is like making prints from negatives...Often it is the dark forest that makes us speak about the open field. Frequently prison makes us think about freedom, hunger helps us to appreciate food, and war gives us words for peace. Not seldom are our vision of the future born out of the sufferings of the present and our hope for others out of our own despair. Only few "happy endings" make us happy but often someone's careful ad honest articulation of the ambiguities, uncertainties, and painful conditions of life gives us new hope. The paradox is indeed that new life is born out of the pains of the old. ~ Robert Durback
Accepting Life quotes by Robert Durback
I was able to change my life by knowing that if somebody does something good for you, you have to respond. ~ Nelson Mandela
Accepting Life quotes by Nelson Mandela
Who hadn't at some point in his life wanted to climb to the top of a sailing ship in full flight? ~ Lev Grossman
Accepting Life quotes by Lev Grossman
When you lived a certain kind of life, pushed along by good colleges and internships and jobs and a shared, tranquil neighborhood and a world of privilege in which your child overlapped, you were inevitably part of a long chain of connections. All of them could help one another; the possibilities were there if they wanted them, though many of them didn't seem to want them anymore, or maybe they had somehow forgotten they had once wanted them. ~ Meg Wolitzer
Accepting Life quotes by Meg Wolitzer
And domestic aspects of life. That would be to forsake the universal claim of the kingdom of God. Newbigin looks to the pattern of Jesus who exercised the sovereignty of God's kingdom through servanthood. How is it possible for the church truly to represent the reign of God in the world the way Jesus did? The answer, he believes, lies in the local congregation. I have come to feel that the primary reality of which we have to take account in seeking for a Christian impact on public life is the Christian congregation. How is it possible that the gospel should be credible, that people should come to believe that the power which has the last word in human affairs is represented by a man hanging on a ~ Tim Chester
Accepting Life quotes by Tim Chester
If one of my boys was asking me if they should go into politics, I'd say there's only one reason to go into public life and that's to help people. ~ Evan Bayh
Accepting Life quotes by Evan Bayh
Don't try to fix the past,try to build the future. ~ Christos Stavrou
Accepting Life quotes by Christos Stavrou
I've never had a message for anyone in my entire life. Except maybe to give out my room number. ~ Bon Scott
Accepting Life quotes by Bon Scott
Believing that all famous people have tons of money saved up. ~ Paulo Coelho
Accepting Life quotes by Paulo Coelho
With the intellect, I always have-always shall overcome, but that is not half of the work of life. The life-oh my God-shall the life never be sweet? ~ Margaret Fuller
Accepting Life quotes by Margaret Fuller
One did not depend on marines for good table manners. One depended on them to have the right instincts when it came to matters of life and death. ~ Viet Thanh Nguyen
Accepting Life quotes by Viet Thanh Nguyen
Daring a greater life is a divine act. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Accepting Life quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
After all the many changes in my life, Olay Total Effects has helped me fight not just 1 but 7 signs of skin ageing. ~ Kris Aquino
Accepting Life quotes by Kris Aquino
paused for a moment, and a wild feeling of pity came over him. After all, what right had he to pry into the life of Dorian Gray? If he had done a tithe of what was rumoured about him, how much he must have suffered! Then he straightened himself up, and walked over to the fire-place, and stood there, ~ Oscar Wilde
Accepting Life quotes by Oscar Wilde
O, to be a ruler of life
not a slave, To meet life as a powerful conqueror, No fumes
no ennui
no more complaints or scornful criticisms. O me repellent and ugly, O to these proud laws of the air, the water and the ground, proving my interior Soul impregnable, And nothing exterior shall ever take command of me. ~ Walt Whitman
Accepting Life quotes by Walt Whitman
Good diet and exercise are key, but abject fear has its own rewards. And arriving on the first day for rehearsals for 'Spamalot' and seeing all these much younger, much fitter people, who I was going to be on stage with, became a catalyst for cutting out the more unhealthy aspects of my life. ~ Sanjeev Bhaskar
Accepting Life quotes by Sanjeev Bhaskar
The print was an old one made from a negative taken in the 1960's of her parents in Sydney Mines, dancing with thrilled, excited expressions on their faces, in front of a classic car that had been a wedding gift at the time. Her mother's hair, red back then, was held back by a blue handkerchief, and she was dressed in a billowing skirt and white blouse. Her father's denim jeans and faded t-shirt were streaked with coal dust as he held her hands and spun her around in the front yard of their old clapboard house, yellow grass under their feet and a cobalt-blue sky with white clouds drifting above. Mandy could almost feel the late summer breeze as she gazed deeply into the print, watching the flamboyant colors come to life. She hung it up to dry on two wooden clothespins hanging from a string above her. ~ Rebecca McNutt
Accepting Life quotes by Rebecca McNutt
All my life I've swam in the loo butterfly style. ~ Faina Ranevskaya
Accepting Life quotes by Faina Ranevskaya
I voted for Nader, and I have no doubts at all that it was the right thing to do because the Nader candidacy was extremely energising and a terrific phenomenon in American life, and I hope he continues. ~ Norman Finkelstein
Accepting Life quotes by Norman Finkelstein
I'm not sure how far the decent is, because I'm still falling. But I've hit rock-bottom about half a dozen times in my life, ~ Zack Love
Accepting Life quotes by Zack Love
When people say that they have longing to be a child (again)I think that they mean that they miss that child-like enthusiasm for life.

As a child, an adult can stop you from doing what makes you happy. Whereas, with enthusiasm, no adult should have the power to stop you. ~ Cheri Bauer
Accepting Life quotes by Cheri Bauer
Live like the universe is your beloved home, love like everyone is your closest friend. ~ Debasish Mridha
Accepting Life quotes by Debasish Mridha
Death is not an unkind fate,' Darist said above him. 'If she was a friend, you will miss her company, and that is the true source of your grief - your sorrow is for yourself. My words may displease you, but I speak from experience. I have felt the deaths of many of my kin, and I mourn the spaces in my life where they once stood. But such losses serve only to ease my own impending demise. ~ Steven Erikson
