When making a decision, focus on what feels "shackles off" versus "shackles on". ~ Martha Beck
Making A Decision quotes by Martha Beck
Just run away from your problems if you want cause sometimes we need a time to think and cool down a bit before making a decision. ~ Adel Sakura
Making A Decision quotes by Adel Sakura
My paper has to be very long and complex," I said. "I shall cite all the great thinkers - Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud." "What about Adolf Hitler?" "Oh, him. He's not a thinker. He's just a ranter and raver." "There may come a time," said Pepi, "when people cannot tell the difference." "Impossible," I solemnly predicted. "I have read Hitler's book Mein Kampf and also some works by his colleague Herr Alfred Rosenberg because I am a fair-minded, objective person and I believe one should always hear out all sides before making a decision, and so I can tell you from firsthand knowledge that these men are idiots. Their ideas about how the Jews have poisoned their so-called superior Aryan race and caused all of Germany's troubles are utter nonsense. No intelligent person could possibly believe them. Hitler is laughable. He will soon disappear." "Just like all your old boyfriends," Pepi said with his sly smile. ~ Edith Hahn Beer
Making A Decision quotes by Edith Hahn Beer
I don't really remember making a decision. I don't remember thinking to myself, "Yes, I will do this," or, "No, I will not do that." They tell you what to do, and you do it. You don't reflect on it. You don't ponder its meaning. You don't explore its ambiguities or consider its consequences. These burdens are removed from you. In theory.
But you are still human. Eventually, you do reflect on it. The consequences make themselves known. The results of your actions persist. Eventually, you are struck by their meaning. At some point, an accounting is made. Eventually, if you are human, and sane, you examine what you have done. ~ Stephen Dau
Making A Decision quotes by Stephen Dau
Ask yourself before making a decision; will this decision harm or help myself or others involved in the decision ~ Kloby
Making A Decision quotes by Kloby
When people buy, rescue, or otherwise acquire a dog from unscrupulous breeders or amateur rescue groups, they are making a decision with ethical consequences. They have a profound responsibility to consider their actions; to gauge the dog's behavior, to train it thoroughly and rigorously, to protect other humans and dogs from harm. ~ Jon Katz
Making A Decision quotes by Jon Katz
Your problem, my darling daughter, is that you're afraid you're going to miss something. But what you don't realize is that, by not making a decision, you're missing it all. ~ Claire Cook
Making A Decision quotes by Claire Cook
We have to feed our loved ones, but at what cost. A dead man or woman can't feed the living. ~ James Jean-Pierre
Making A Decision quotes by James Jean-Pierre
There would be no point asking Sarah because she was incapable of making a decision. If Cecilia asked her if she wanted tea or coffee, she would sit for a full minute, her forehead furrowed as she agonized over the pros and cons of each beverage, before finally saying, "Coffee! No, wait, tea!" A decision like this one would give her a seizure. ~ Liane Moriarty
Making A Decision quotes by Liane Moriarty
Retired general Colin Powell famously advocates collecting half of the information available, then making a decision, even though your information is clearly incomplete. ~ Josh Kaufman
Making A Decision quotes by Josh Kaufman
I was only able to get over my past when I decided I was going to! As I've discovered, that's how everything starts. I decided to get out of bed this morning. I decided to get ready for work (D'oh! Another early morning). Everything I did today was because I made a decision. Although we can't set ourselves free, getting up and making a decision to move on from our past is a step in the right direction. We can't do God's part, and He won't do our part. He can't make that decision for you, because only you can. But once you have made that decision, He can help you with the rest. ~ Corallie Buchanan
Making A Decision quotes by Corallie Buchanan
The situation - having to choose between imposing higher retail prices and reducing investments and military spending - created a dilemma for the government: deciding between conflict with the public or with the Party economic elite. But not making a decision heightened the risk that, as the crisis developed, there would be conflict with both the public and the elite.18 The new generation of leaders clearly did not understand this. The traditional management of the economy was oriented on natural, rather than abstract, parameters. The development of cattle breeding was discussed at the highest level more frequently than the country's budget. Industry and business leaders regarded finances as necessary but dreary bookkeeping.19 In addition, information on the real state of the budget, hard currency reserves, foreign debt, and balance of payments was available only to an extremely narrow circle of people, many of whom understood nothing about it anyway. ~ Yegor Gaidar
Making A Decision quotes by Yegor Gaidar
The inner experience of fallure is totally different than failure. Going to fallure means 100% commitment - you leave nothing in reserve, no mental or physical resource untapped, you never give yourself a psychological out. Failure means making a decision to let go, to be less than 100% committed, when confronted by fear, pain and uncertainty. ~ James C. Collins
Making A Decision quotes by James C. Collins
Despite the many occasions when its characters feel frustrated before the weight of circumstances, and despite blaming their feeling of impotence on daiva, 'fate', moral autonomy shines through in the epic. Because they have some freedom to choose they can be praised when they follow dharma or blamed when they follow adharma. At the moment of making a decision they become conscious of their freedom, and it is this perception of autonomy that gives them the ability to lead authentic moral lives. ~ Gurcharan Das
Making A Decision quotes by Gurcharan Das
When it applies to the Olympics and making a decision, I have to claim Australia as my country. ~ Kyrie Irving
Making A Decision quotes by Kyrie Irving
Making a decision isn't about knowing every potential consequence. It's about knowing what you want and chasing a path that takes you in that direction ~ Malinda Lo
Making A Decision quotes by Malinda Lo
A true leader is not meant to be greeted with unanimous praise by his people. A leader is meant to be questioned, to be suspect, to be hated. If he is not, then one can easily assume that either he has not challenged his abilities as a leader by making a decision that creates a split between the people, or he is forcing his subjects to bow before him. ~ Evan Meekins
Making A Decision quotes by Evan Meekins
When you're having trouble making a decision you're making it too soon. ~ Esther Hicks
Making A Decision quotes by Esther Hicks
Let me tell you, if you're ever making a decision and the principle reason you'll do it is because of money, then it is absolutely the incorrect decision. ~ Hill Harper
Making A Decision quotes by Hill Harper
One of the reasons we keep so many sentimental items in our homes is because there is no boundary to force our hand in making a decision. As a result, more and more boxes get moved into the attic to store this ever-increasing collection. Instead, set an arbitrary boundary: one box, one drawer, or one shelf. ~ Joshua Becker
Making A Decision quotes by Joshua Becker
Good mothers make all kinds of choices. Making a decision that might sound selfish does not make a woman a bad mother. ~ Jada Pinkett Smith
Making A Decision quotes by Jada Pinkett Smith
I think the important thing about making a decision is just to make it. Otherwise you can go nuts thinking about the pros and cons. ~ Diane Chamberlain
Making A Decision quotes by Diane Chamberlain
No better way to avoid making a decision than burying yourself in a big fat book. (p. 105). ~ Elizabeth Bard
Making A Decision quotes by Elizabeth Bard
The essence of the phenomenon of gambling is decision making. The act of making a decision consists of selecting one course of action, or strategy, from among the set of admissible strategies. ~ Richard Arnold Epstein
Making A Decision quotes by Richard Arnold Epstein
Be sure to see that the first few pages have the reader on the edge of his seat, unable to put the book down. Most editors only have time to read a few pages before making a decision; make those pages memorable! ~ Judith Saxton
Making A Decision quotes by Judith Saxton
point-making a decision to follow Jesus has never converted anyone. This is because it is not a decision that converts a person; it is the power of the Holy Spirit that does so. We get into the kingdom not because we make a decision, walk down an aisle, raise a hand, or sign a card. We get into the kingdom because there is true faith in our hearts.
Don't ~ R.C. Sproul
Making A Decision quotes by R.C. Sproul
If you have difficulties making a decision, choose the lesser of the two evils. ~ Rajneesh
Making A Decision quotes by Rajneesh
But he was able to understand one thing: making a decision was only the beginning of things. When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that wil carry him into places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision. - The Alchemist, Paulo Cohelo - ~ Paulo Coelho
Making A Decision quotes by Paulo Coelho
To set aside one's prejudices, one's present needs, and one's own self interest in making a decision as a director for a company is an intellectual exercise that takes constant practice. In short, intellectual honesty is a journey and not a destination. ~ Mervyn King
Making A Decision quotes by Mervyn King
Author Elizabeth Stone once said, Making a decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~ John Medina
Making A Decision quotes by John Medina
It's just a matter of making a decision and following through. ~ Lynda Mullaly Hunt
Making A Decision quotes by Lynda Mullaly Hunt
If we do nothing while we are feeling an emotion, there is no short- or long-term harm that can come to us. However, if we react to the emotion by making a DECISION, we may not only regret the immediate outcome, but we may also create a long-lasting pattern of DECISIONS that will continue to misguide us for a long time. ~ Dan Ariely
Making A Decision quotes by Dan Ariely
Because elites are informal does not mean they are invisible. At any small group meeting anyone with a sharp eye and an acute ear can tell who is influencing whom. The member of a friendship group will relate more to each other than to other people. They listen more attentively and interrupt less. They repeat each other's points and give in amiably. The 'outs' they tend to ignore or grapple with. The 'outs' approval is not necessary for making a decision; however it is necessary for the 'outs' to stay on good terms with the 'ins'. Of course, the lines are not as sharp as I have drawn them. They are nuances of interaction,not prewritten scripts. But they are discernible, and they do have their effect. Once one knows with whom it is important to check before a decision is made, and whose approval is the stamp of acceptance, one knows who is running things. ~ Jo Freeman
Making A Decision quotes by Jo Freeman
When you are making a decision about how best to serve your customers, your own experience is often a better guide than a more sophisticated analysis of the market. ~ Richard Branson
Making A Decision quotes by Richard Branson
Not making a decision, is a decision too. Don't give your power away! ~ Akiroq Brost
Making A Decision quotes by Akiroq Brost
It is obvious that the performance of a stock last year or last month is no reason, per se, to either own it or to not own it now. It is obvious that an inability to "get even" in a security that has declined is of no importance. It is obvious that the inner warm glow that results from having held a winner last year is of no importance in making a decision as to whether it belongs in an optimum portfolio this year. ~ Warren Buffett
Making A Decision quotes by Warren Buffett
[On stereotyping:] It's the mind's way of processing a lot of information quickly. If we had to sort through every bit of data before making a decision, most folks would still be going out the front door when it was time to come home for the night. ~ Fay Faron
Making A Decision quotes by Fay Faron
I wanted a child, and there was no way I could get pregnant under the stress of 18-hour work days and live TV. When you're somebody who's used to making a decision about what they want to do and getting it and achieving it, when your body fails you, it's a whole other experience. ~ Kara DioGuardi
Making A Decision quotes by Kara DioGuardi
Just by making a decision to stay out of politics, you are making the decision to allow others to shape politics and exert power over you. And if you are alienated from the current political system, then just by staying out of it, if you do nothing to change it, you simply entrench it. ~ Joan Kirner
Making A Decision quotes by Joan Kirner
The difficulty is not making a decision, it's living with the consequences. ~ Micah Baldwin
Making A Decision quotes by Micah Baldwin
Travel to other towns, states, and countries. Realize that your way is not the only way. Different doesn't equal bad or wrong. Be open minded and informed before making a decision. ~ Alison G. Bailey
Making A Decision quotes by Alison G. Bailey
Making a decision was only the beginning of things. When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision. ~ Paulo Coelho
Making A Decision quotes by Paulo Coelho
It takes courage to listen to your inner knowing … But once you hear that knowing, making a decision becomes fairly easy. ~ Joseph Jaworski
Making A Decision quotes by Joseph Jaworski
Before making a decision, don't merely try to weigh all the pros and cons as you currently see them (though that is a good thing to do). Ask yourself: What is the single most important piece of information that would be most useful for my career decision? Now, what can I do in order to gain that information? ~ William MacAskill
Making A Decision quotes by William MacAskill
The fear of making a decision is the result of fearing to make a mistake - the truth is, the fear of mistakes has a greater impact on you than making the mistakes. ~ Bob Proctor
Making A Decision quotes by Bob Proctor
When it comes to making a decision, look at both sides, listen to your heart, then pick one and dive in. ~ Diane Chamberlain
Making A Decision quotes by Diane Chamberlain
Making an un-perfect decision is far, far better than not making a decision, which is the worst possible decision you could make. ~ Hank Green
Making A Decision quotes by Hank Green
Before making a decision, ask inside for guidance. Be patient and await an answer. Act only when you feel calm and certain. ~ Deepak Chopra
Making A Decision quotes by Deepak Chopra
There are a lot of very fine upstanding gays who are good citizens and all that. I am not making a decision for individual people. But when it comes to a societal policy, I think there are not enough babies for adoption to go around. I think a preference should be given to families with a mother and father who have a lifetime commitment. ~ Phyllis Schlafly
Making A Decision quotes by Phyllis Schlafly
According to Teenage Research Unlimited, 51 percent of 13-15 year olds say they will be faced with making a decision regarding alcohol in the next three months. ~ Xavier Becerra
Making A Decision quotes by Xavier Becerra
Part of making a good decision is just making a decision. You can't always sit and weigh the pros and cons. There just isn't time for that. Making a good decision means sticking with your choice and dealing with what comes with it. Being able to deal with the consequences - that's making a good decision. ~ J.X. Burros
Making A Decision quotes by J.X. Burros
I once heard an air force commander tell his pilots that every second, they are making a decision to change course or to stay their course, and that they should always think about their actions as active choices. The problem is that very few of us think about our decisions this way. We think that moving, getting married, changing jobs, etc., as decisions, but we don't think about staying in the same place, staying single, keeping the same job etc., as decisions. Or at least we don't think of them as decisions to the same degree. ~ Dan Ariely
Making A Decision quotes by Dan Ariely
Don't ever feel bad for making a decision about your own life that upsets other people. You are not responsible for their happiness. You're responsible for your own happiness. Anyone who wants you to live in misery for their happiness should not be in your life anyway. ~ Isaiah Hankel
Making A Decision quotes by Isaiah Hankel
[My most fearless moment was] Finally making a decision about my life based solely on how I felt and what I wanted and needed. ~ Sasha Lane
Making A Decision quotes by Sasha Lane
He meant that Patton could not be bothered with details before making a decision. After Patton made a decision, he worked out everything in great detail, in true von Clausewitz style. Hodges and Bradley, like true Jomini planners, worked out all the details beforehand-they thought that was how you made decisions in the first place. ~ William Duggan
Making A Decision quotes by William Duggan
When we allow ourselves to ignore a rational option in favor of an irrational one, or perhaps an unjustified one, it's like eating junk food. It fills the need for making a decision but does so with no decision at all. Just like junk food, it satiates the need to act, but it requires no action at all. ~ Farshad Asl
Making A Decision quotes by Farshad Asl
Reading is the first challenge of translation. Reading, understanding and making a decision on what you're read is crucial to working with text ~ @wanguiwagoro
Making A Decision quotes by @wanguiwagoro
The desire to be perfect holds us back in so many ways. We don't speak up for ourselves, as we know deep down we should, because we don't want to be seen as pushy, bitchy, or just straight-up unlikeable. When we do speak up, many of us agonize and overthink how to express ourselves, trying to hit just the right note of assertiveness without seeming too "bossy" or aggressive. We obsessively analyze, consider, discuss, and weigh every angle before making a decision, no matter how small. And if we do, heaven forbid, make a mistake, we feel as though our world is falling apart. ~ Reshma Saujani
Making A Decision quotes by Reshma Saujani
When we lift our forks, we hang our hats somewhere. We set ourselves in one relationship or another to farmed animals, farm-workers, national economies, and global markets. Not making a decision
eating 'like everyone else'
is to make the easiest decision, a decision that is increasingly problematic. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
Making A Decision quotes by Jonathan Safran Foer
Survival is not about being fearless. It's about making a decision, getting on and doing it, because I want to see my kids again, or whatever the reason might be. ~ Bear Grylls
Making A Decision quotes by Bear Grylls
We leave Scarlet Witch without a home, without a family, and she ends up creating a surrogate family within the Avengers and making a decision to be a part of the team. I think a lot of that has to do with what Jeremy's character - like his attitude towards her and the speech he gives her at the end of the film. So we pick up with her having started a new life, but still trying to figure out what her abilities are and if using them causes greater good or greater damage. ~ Elizabeth Olsen
Making A Decision quotes by Elizabeth Olsen
It was a natural thing for me to go become a musician, and then to start writing music. I don't even really remember making a decision to go into music, it was just there for me, always. If I weren't making a living at it, I'd still be writing music. ~ Geoff Zanelli
Making A Decision quotes by Geoff Zanelli
All through your life, you'll be faced with making a decision between two things-choose the one that is right. If they are both right, then choose the one that will make you feel the best about it at the end of the day. ~ Thomas Jefferson
Making A Decision quotes by Thomas Jefferson
I want you with me." Another kiss was placed on my face. "But don't rush into making a decision. I don't want you regretting anything."

"We'll figure it out." I smiled, soaking in the scent of him, the feel of his slick suit and thick shoulder beneath my cheek. The brush of his beard against the top of my head. Heaven.

"Yeah," he whispered. "Love you."

"You do?"

"Without a doubt."

"Good. I love you more though," I said. Because it's important in relationships, especially those that felt like forever, to show that you were the better person. Ha. ~ Kylie Scott
Making A Decision quotes by Kylie Scott
Making a decision is only the beginning of things ~ Paulo Coelho
Making A Decision quotes by Paulo Coelho
will to create. Yes" - as if she expected disagreement - "the will, because it is an act of will. It's more than being called upon by some convenient artistic muse. It's making a decision to offer up a bit of one's essence to the judgement of others. ~ Elizabeth George
Making A Decision quotes by Elizabeth George
True grit is making a decision and standing by it, doing what must be done. ~ John Wayne
Making A Decision quotes by John Wayne
As the writer, you can choose the word that seems best in terms of meaning, nuance, sound, etc. As the translator you are unlikely to find a word in your language that exactly matches, so that you are always making a decision about which meaning or nuance to choose, or emphasize, over the others. ~ Ann Goldstein
Making A Decision quotes by Ann Goldstein
In any serious relationship, if you don't gather your partner's opinion before making a decision that impacts you both, you're just storing up trouble for the future. ~ Cindy Woodsmall
Making A Decision quotes by Cindy Woodsmall
It's a sad fact that most people can't even spot a story when they see one. Most people don't know that stories aren't confined by the covers of books or by half-hour slots on TV. The world is made of stories. The world is driven by stories. When a sunburned-friend tells you about their holiday, it's not a straight list of everything that happened to them - it's a story, an anecdote with a plot, a beginning, a middle and an end. Each one of their holiday snaps is a story too. When you're making a decision, and you imagine the possible outcomes - what are you doing if not telling yourself a story? History is a story. Society is a story. Countries are stories. Your plans are stories. Your desires are stories. Your own memories are stories - narratives selected, trimmed and packaged by the hidden machinery in your mind. Human beings are story engines. We have to be - to understand stories is to understand the world. ~ Steven Hall
Making A Decision quotes by Steven Hall
Making a decision reduces opportunities in the short run, but increases opportunities in the long run. To move forward in your career, you have to commit to specific opportunities as part of an iterative plan, despite doubt and despite inconvenience. ~ Reid Hoffman
Making A Decision quotes by Reid Hoffman
When making a decision of minor importance, I have always found it advantageous to consider all the pros and cons. In vital matters, however, such as the choice of a mate or a profession, the decision should come from the unconscious, from somewhere within ourselves. In the important decisions of personal life, we should be governed, I think, by the deep inner needs of our nature. ~ Sigmund Freud
Making A Decision quotes by Sigmund Freud
I think producers are more interested in backing concepts than directors and writers. I don't think that's the right way of making a decision about whether you're going to back a film or not. ~ Steven Spielberg
Making A Decision quotes by Steven Spielberg
I always look for a woman who has a tattoo. I see a woman with a tattoo, and I'm thinking, okay, here's a gal who's capable of making a decision she'll regret in the future. ~ Richard Jeni
Making A Decision quotes by Richard Jeni
Contrary to what most people think, making a decision is one of the easiest decisions in the world, as is more than proved by the fact that we make decision upon decision throughout the day, there, however, we run straight into the heart of the matter, for these decisions always come to us afterward with their particular little problems, or, to make ourselves quite clear, with their rough edges needing to be smoothed, the first of these problems being our capacity for sticking to a decision and the second our willingness to follow it through. ~ Jose Saramago
Making A Decision quotes by Jose Saramago
The sweetest part is acting after making a decision. ~ Emily Saliers
Making A Decision quotes by Emily Saliers
Making a decision to sell is the most difficult thing we do. ~ Walter Schloss
Making A Decision quotes by Walter Schloss
Making a decision to live a life of excellence, and living a life of excellence are two difference things. ~ Bohdi Sanders
Making A Decision quotes by Bohdi Sanders
A lot of people never find the person God created them to be. They're too busy trying to live up to other people's expectations, or they try to create themselves in the image of a person they admire or envy. Just because we respect someone or think their life might be more exciting than ours doesn't mean God created us to be just like them. Sometimes we have to ignore the people in our lives so we can hear the voice of God ... But making a decision to put someone else first out of love isn't the same thing as putting them first out of fear. Because you're afraid they won't love you if you don't act the way they might want you to. ~ Nancy Mehl
Making A Decision quotes by Nancy Mehl
My husband cooks fancier food for himself than I've ever cooked on-air. I call him from the road, and he's making champagne-vanilla salmon or black-cherry pork chop. Half of me is feeling unworthy. Not only am I not a chef, I'm not a better cook than my own husband! ~ Rachael Ray
Making A Decision quotes by Rachael Ray
I love coffee because for a few minutes every day I put all of my focus and energy into the creation of something great. I enjoy it for a few minutes, but then it's gone. Until tomorrow when I start the whole process all over again. On any given day, that morning cup might be your last, so you'd better give it your all. Making a great cup of coffee is a perfect work of Zen art. The topic of this book may be making coffee, but the sub-text message I want to put out into the universe is one of always taking the time to appreciate the small things and never take anyone for granted, whether it's your spouse, your friends, your parents, the barista that makes your espresso, or the farmer that grows the coffee beans. Treat every conversation and every relationship as if it, just like that perfect cup of coffee, were a precious work of temporary Zen art. Because it is. ~ Steven D. Ward
Making A Decision quotes by Steven D. Ward
My other hand?' Lopen said. 'The one that was cut off long ago, eaten by a fearsome beast? It is making a rude gesture toward you right now. I thought you would want to know, so you can prepare to be insulted. ~ Brandon Sanderson
Making A Decision quotes by Brandon Sanderson
Thanks, Mom. Thanks for making me try out for this play.'

I think I might have just made being a mother totally worthwhile for her.

I will try to never forget her face...Mom's got tears in her eyes and she's smiling. It's an amazing look.

I have to remember how powerful it can be to say thank you.

Especially to the people you live with. ~ Holly Goldberg Sloan
Making A Decision quotes by Holly Goldberg Sloan
When you have a person in your life who effortlessly make you feel like the most magnificent entity in the universe, there is only one other who has the power of making you feel less than nothing. Ironically enough, it is always that very same individual. ~ Carl Henegan
Making A Decision quotes by Carl Henegan
I'm really interested in making a mark on a paper and letting that be cursive shorthand for an idea - that's the origin of cartooning. ~ Craig Thompson
Making A Decision quotes by Craig Thompson
Between one heartbeat and the next, a man can dream his entire life; tomorrow will open up in front of him and yesterday will retreat into time's abyss. There is no better place for personal memories than obscurity. Once lived, the past has very little value. And yet we carry its lifeless body into all future moments, allowing it to crush us with its weight, to identify us, and to speak for us. Even the most capable adults seem reluctant to make a decision without first consulting the past - the corpse - and listening to its endless rebukes. A wise man will ignore such counsel and observe the world from an infinite perspective. ~ Miguel Ruiz
Making A Decision quotes by Miguel Ruiz
Yes, you're adorable, aren't you? Are you a good boy, Snugglepumpkin?" Oberon wagged his tail and came over within petting distance. "Oh, yes, you are a good boy, yes, you are." She stopped making sense and instead made high-pitched squeals of delight as she scratched Oberon's giant head; the rest of us stood and watched as a woman with an advanced degree completely lost her mind. Okay, ~ Kevin Hearne
Making A Decision quotes by Kevin Hearne
I've often thought that people with severe depression have developed such a well for experiencing extreme emotion that they might be able to experience extreme joy in a way that "normal" people also might never understand, and that's what FURIOUSLY HAPPY is all about. It's about taking those moments when things are fine and making them amazing, because those moments are what make us who we are, and they're the same moments we take into battle with us when our brains declare war on our very existence. It's the difference between "surviving life" and "living life." It ~ Jenny Lawson
Making A Decision quotes by Jenny Lawson
Making judgments on films is in many ways so peculiarly vaporous an occupation that the only question is why, beyond the obvious opportunities for a few lectures fees and a little careerism at a dispiritingly self-limiting level, anyone does it in the first place. ~ Joan Didion
Making A Decision quotes by Joan Didion
At This Moment Of Time

Some who are uncertain compel me. They fear
The Ace of Spades. They fear
Loves offered suddenly, turning from the mantelpiece,
Sweet with decision. And they distrust
The fireworks by the lakeside, first the spuft,
Then the colored lights, rising.
Tentative, hesitant, doubtful, they consume
Greedily Caesar at the prow returning,
Locked in the stone of his act and office.
While the brass band brightly bursts over the water
They stand in the crowd lining the shore
Aware of the water beneath Him. They know it. Their eyes
Are haunted by water

Disturb me, compel me. It is not true
That "no man is happy," but that is not
The sense which guides you. If we are
Unfinished (we are, unless hope is a bad dream),
You are exact. You tug my sleeve
Before I speak, with a shadow's friendship,
And I remember that we who move
Are moved by clouds that darken midnight ~ Delmore Schwartz
Making A Decision quotes by Delmore Schwartz
But whatever you do, find the God-centered, Christ-exalting, Bible-saturated passion of your life, and find your way to say it and live for it and die for it. And you will make a difference that lasts. You will not waste your life. ~ John Piper
Making A Decision quotes by John Piper
Promoting a stock is like making a movie. You've got to have stars, props, and a good script. ~ Robert Friedland
Making A Decision quotes by Robert Friedland
Games such as Mass Effect allow the gamer a freedom of decision that can be evilly enlivening or nobly self-congratulating, but these games become uniquely compelling when they force you to the edge of some drawn, real-life line of intellectual or moral obligation that, to your mild astonishment, you find you cannot step across even in what is, essentially, a digital dollhouse for adults. Other mediums may depict the necessary (or foolhardy) breaches of such lines, or their foolhardy (or necessary) protection, but only games actually push you to the line's edge and make you live with the fictional consequences of your choice. ~ Tom Bissell
Making A Decision quotes by Tom Bissell
Prejudice is of ready application in the emergency; it previously engages the mind in a steady course of wisdom and virtue, and does not leave the man hesitating in the moment of decision, skeptical, puzzled and unresolved. Prejudice renders a man's virtue his habit; and not a series of unconnected acts. Through past prejudice, his duty becomes part of his nature. ~ Edmund Burke
Making A Decision quotes by Edmund Burke
What changed your mind?"
"I never changed my mind." Stitch grunted as he threw the bag as far as he could into the black water.
Zak sighed, rushed toward him, and pulled him away from the shore. From the corner of his eye, he noticed the water getting rough in the moonlight as reptiles crept closer in the darkness, ready for some fresh meat. "Will you come back home with me?" he uttered, cold sweat sliding down his back.
Stitch took a deep breath and held onto Zak's hand. "If you'll have me," he whispered. "This was such a shit day, wasn't it?"
Zak squeezed his hand tightly with a shuddery sigh. A man who had trembled with pleasure in his bed turned into gator feed, and Zak was choosing to betray him. The death could still be discovered, they could still be charged with murder, but he was determined to keep himself in one piece. "I just want to kiss you so badly."
Stitch bowed down to him and gave the kiss Zak so deeply craved. His soft, warm lips were somehow making all the black thoughts flee into the depths of Zak's mind. "I can't please everyone." His voice was so weak it was getting lost in the sounds of splashing water and buzzing insects.
Zak pushed himself against Stitch and gasped as adrenaline shot into his brain. Stitch's scent was sharper than ever, spiked with all the stress and fear of the passing day. "I love you."
"I know, I love you too." Stitch kissed Zak's lips once more and stroked the side of his head. "Let's go home. ~ K.A. Merikan
