― Michael Bassey Johnson

“I'm not saying that I think one man is better than the other. I'm not saying that either is kinder or wiser or more ambitious, more thoughtful, confident, or able. But the fact is that when I'm with the one, comfort settles into my bones. I feel calm around him, as if the sun is smiling down on me and the world has suddenly become a sweet, safe place to be. I feel good about life―about myself. And it's hard not to want to be near someone who, just by their very nature, makes you feel that way.”
― Richelle E. Goodrich, Smile Anyway: Quotes, Verse, and Grumblings for Every Day of the Year

“We just wanna be the happy bums that we are. That's all.”

― Eleanor Catton, The Luminaries

“Transformations are a part of life. We are constantly being changed by things changing around us. Nobody can control that. Nobody can control the environment, the economy, luck, or the moods of others. Compositions change. Positions change. Dispositions change. Experiences change. Opportunities and attitudes change. You will change.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“…—We have not all, you know, the same tenderness of dispositionâ€�”
― Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

― Michael Bassey Johnson

― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“Happiness is a frame of mind. It is a state of thinking. It is an attitude, a headset, a mentality. Happiness is a disposition and demeanor. It is a mood and sensibility. It is a philosophy, a notion, a tone, an outlook and perspective. Happiness is all of these things, none of which exist separate from me. They cannot be extracted or stolen because they constitute my very being. Therefore, happiness must be the natural essence of me.”
― Richelle E. Goodrich, Slaying Dragons: Quotes, Poetry, & a Few Short Stories for Every Day of the Year

“It is neither trials nor relationships nor successes nor failures that define a man, but the choices he makes while handling them.”

“I smiled, knowing that Elizabeth, even in the worst of her humours, was far better suited to my own disposition. She would scold me, quarrel with me, torment me, tease me and laugh at me as often as may be.
I was the happiest man in the world.”
― Mary Street, The Confession of Fitzwilliam Darcy

“Tigers and Women ! Tigers and women have something in common, it is their disposition; they must be treated majestically.”

"Yet it would be your duty to bear it if you could not avoid it: it is weak and silly to say you cannot bear what is your fate to be required to bear.”
― Charlotte bronte, Jane Eyre

“Leadership obeys the principle of Hooke's law to the very bone. It explains:

When an elastic material is stretched, it returns to its original position. But when it's over stretched beyond its limit point, it loses its elasticity and becomes plastic, and later cuts or breaks.

As a leader, in your leadership disposition, it behoves of you to acquaint yourself with this very leadership principle that edges forward. It's however, a human nature to adopt to an environment, so, leaders are humans, they tend to have this rapore with their followers which is somewhat a must needed. But the ability for such one to return and recollect to knowing his boundary makes a good leader. A phenomenon whereby he becomes drunk of platitudes, then it comes to a time where they (followers) dictate for him. And even sought and suggest plans without his consent or knowing, it has gotten to the point of plastic and break respectively.”
― Richmond Akhigbe

“As if reading his mind, she smiled happily up at him. “Gary really came through for us, didn’t he?â€�
“A²ú²õ´Ç±ô³Ü³Ù±ð±ô²â, ma petite. And Beau LaRue was not so bad either. Come, we cannot leave the poor man pacing the swamp. He will think we are engaging in something other than conversation.â€�
Wickedly Savannah moved her body against his, her hands sliding provocatively, enticingly, over the rigid thickness straining his trousers. “Aren’t we?� she asked with that infuriating sexy smile he could never resist.
“We have a lot of clean-up to do here, Savannah,� he said severely. “And we need to get word to our people, spread the society’s list through our ranks, warn those in danger.�
Her fingers were working at the buttons of his shirt so that she could push the material aside to examine his chest and shoulder, where two of the worst wounds had been. She had to see his body for herself, touch him to assure herself he was completely healed. “I suggest, for now, that your biggest job is to create something for Gary to do so we can have a little privacy.� With a smooth movement, she pulled the shirt from over her head so that her full breasts gleamed temptingly at him.
Gregori made a sound somewhere between a sigh and a moan. His hands came up to cup the weight of her in his palms, the feel of her soft, satin skin soothing after the burning torture of the tainted blood. His thumbs caressed the rosy tips into hard peaks. He bent his head slowly to the erotic temptation because he was helpless to do anything else. He needed the merging of their bodies after such a close call as much as she did. He could feel the surge of excitement, the rush of liquid heat through her body at the feel of his mouth pulling strongly at her breast.
Gregori dragged her even closer, his hands wandering over her with a sense of urgency. Her need was feeding his.
“Gary,� she whispered. “Don’t forget about Gary.�
Gregori cursed softly, his hand pinning her hips so that he could strip away the offending clothes on her body. He spared the human a few seconds of his attention, directing him away from the cave. Savannah’s soft laughter was taunting, teasing. “I told you, lifemate, you’re always taking off my clothes.�
“Then stop wearing the damn things,� he responded gruffly, his hands at her tiny waist, his mouth finding her flat stomach. “Someday my child will be growing right here,� he said softly, kissing her belly. His hands pinned her thighs so that he could explore easily without interruption. “A beautiful little girl with your looks and my disposition.�
Savannah laughed softly, her arms cradling his head lovingly. “That should be quite a combination. What’s wrong with my disposition?� She was writhing under the onslaught of his hands and mouth, arcing her body more fully into his ministrations.
“You are a wicked woman,� he whispered. “I would have to kill any man who treated my daughter the way I am treating you.�
She cried out, her body rippling with pleasure. “I happen to love the way you treat me, lifemate,â€� she answered softly and cried out again when he merged their bodies, their minds, their hearts and souls.”
― Christine Feehan, Dark Magic

“The amount of dynamic energy and physical strength that a person possesses frequently influences the character of their mental and psychological disposition.”
― Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“His pattern of life for twenty years and more had been a demonstration of how to be impulsive and careful at the same time. And his generosity to others also came, like a pack of bacon, with a ‘use byâ€� date on it.”
― Julian Barnes, The Only Story

“Today's enemies can be your friends tomorrow.
And today's friends can be tomorrow's enemies.
What you reject today, you could accept tomorrow.
And what you accept today, you could reject tomorrow.
Never say never unless you can predict the future.
Unforeseeable circumstances can make a rich man,
poor -
And a poor man, rich.
And unpredictable experiences can also make
a good man, bad -
And a bad man, good.
Like the weather or bonds between lovers,
Transformations cannot always be predicted.
All energy transmutes one day or another,
In one way or another,
Either in its form or composition,
Or in its position or disposition.
Today will always offer new experiences,
And tomorrow will always offer new opportunities.
But if you heed to yesterday's lessons,
You can shape your present and future
To be filled with positive relationships
And beautiful blessings.


TODAY AND TOMORROW by Suzy Kassem”

“If you want to know from your past failure,
Take a look at you in the present moment.
If you want for you to see a brighter future,
Look at yourself more pleasant as content!”

“Your expectation influences your disposition”
― ekeremarshal

“There are many different paths to superior outcomes in business. You will have to find your own path, one that suits your temperament, disposition, and natural aptitudes. Therefore, don't try to copy or emulate other leaders—including me. Don't ask yourself in tough situations, “What would Frank do?â€� That will only slow down the process of finding your own path. Instead, make the most of your unique aggregate of experiences. Apply those experiences, and the insights we've discussed in previous chapters, to become a truer, more honed, more effective version of who you already are. Finding your own path, however long it takes, will unlock your personal power.”
― Frank Slootman, Amp It Up: Leading for Hypergrowth by Raising Expectations, Increasing Urgency, and Elevating Intensity

“It was a heavier breed than the ones she had seen so far, handsome white mare with a short, muscular neck, wide shoulders, and a hawklike profile that implied strength and nobility. Her mane and tail were golden brown, and wavy, as if they had been braided and then brushed. Her gait was clean and crisp, and she bore her rider, a tall man with long legs, as if he weighted nothing at all.
Suddenly England was interesting. This mare would be perfect to cross with Black Satin, if the obstacle of the Atlantic Ocean could be overcome. She was sturdy. She appeared to have a level disposition, paying no attention to the other mounts who passed her or the rattle and bang of the occasional landau. She carried herself beautifully, with a nice balance between the set of her head and the movement of her hindquarters. She held her silken tail high, a sure sign of joy and pride.”
― Louisa Morgan, The Age of Witches
