3 December 2020 Vin Diesel With age, you get to a place where you don’t want to knock people out. You just want to give people a hug.
3 December 2020 Gary Ryan Blair Do more than is required. What is the distance between someone who achieves their goals consistently and those who spend their lives and careers merely following? The extra mile.
3 December 2020 Amy Schumer I’ve always been really dark, and drawn to darker humor. Nothing has been forced, and I don’t say anything for shock value.

3 December 2020 James D'arcy There are lots of people I admire and respect, but I don’t necessarily want to be like them. I’m to happy being myself.

3 December 2020 Dale Carnegie If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities. The thing is to get the work done.
3 December 2020 Saint Francis de Sales Never be in a hurry do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.
