Trying Quotes

I was trying to cheat death. I was only trying to surmount for a little while the darkness that all my life I surely knew was going to come rolling in on me some day and obliterate me. I was only to stay alive a little brief while longer, after I was already gone Picture Quote #1

The thing is, when everyone is trying to persuade you that a thing you know to be true isn’t actually true, you start to believe them: not because it is true but because it’s easier. It’s just the easy way out Picture Quote #1

I was getting close to thirty and was trying on the idea of becoming more mature. I was reading more. I had gone out and bought a lot of shirts Picture Quote #1

The point is that something I thought was perfect has been broken, and I’m having to find the beauty in what is there instead of what I thought was there. Like this shell. I can either spend all my time wishing it were perfect, trying to imagine it the way it was or might have been, or I can see how beautiful it is just like this Picture Quote #1

The idea was to focus on the primal drama of parenthood: the way from moment to moment you swing from comforter to tormentor, just as kids simultaneously light up our lives and drive us nuts. I was trying to capture that strange, bipolar quality of parenthood. For all that being a parent is normal statistically, it’s not normal psychologically. It produces some of the most extreme emotions you’ll ever have Picture Quote #1

I think everything comes together. I think it’s me being more comfortable with what I am trying to do in terms of how I pitch, in using the curveball and stuff like that. It all brings the package together Picture Quote #1

We’re keenly aware that when we develop and make something and bring it to market that it really does speak to a set of values. And what preoccupies us is that sense of care, and what our products will not speak to is a schedule, what our products will not speak to is trying to respond to some corporate or competitive agenda. We’re very genuinely designing the best products that we can for people Picture Quote #1

If you’re not trying to do something better, then you’re not focused on the customer and you’ll miss the possibility of making your business great Picture Quote #1

I strive to live with passion and not to be desensitised to life. Things matter to me. You’ve got to live like that. Otherwise what’s the point? It’s not possible to please everyone and there is no point in trying to be what other people think you should be. For me, it’s important to be who I am, not just to be different but to be as authentic as I can be Picture Quote #1

What I do when speaking in public is trying to do it as best as possible and trying to make everybody comfortable with my words. Sometimes getting this is very difficult, but I try my best Picture Quote #1

I’m being a lot more consistent, trying to make every swing look the same. I’m doing what the situation calls for and trying not to do too much Picture Quote #1

You know, catching the knuckleball, it’s like trying to catch a fly with a chopstick Picture Quote #1

There’s no better guarantee of failure than convincing yourself that success is impossible, and therefore never even trying Picture Quote #1

We believe in the art of war. We are trying to get our competition to attack us with angry, virulent energy, so we can transform that into larger market share Picture Quote #1

Trying your best is bringing your best... that’s the way to do it! Desire and passion is everything Picture Quote #1

What I’m trying to do is be as honest as I can, and I don’t normally do that Picture Quote #1

I believe the very best money is made at the market turns. Everyone says you get killed trying to pick tops and bottoms and you make all your money by playing the trend in the middle. Well for twelve years I have been missing the meat in the middle but I have made a lot of money at tops and bottoms Picture Quote #1

I spend my day trying to make myself as happy and relaxed as I can be. If I have positions going against me, I get right out; if they are going for me, I keep them Picture Quote #1

Part of the challenge of being an entrepreneur, if you’re going for a really huge opportunity, is trying to find problems that aren’t quite on the radar yet and try to solve those Picture Quote #1

The increasing desolation of nature, the exhaustion of resources, the uneasiness and disintegration of the human spirit, all have been brought about by humanity’s trying to accomplish something Picture Quote #1
