“If you want to achieve your objectives, you have to be prepared for a daily dose of pain or discomfort. At first, it's unpleasant and demotivating, but in time you come to realise that it's part of the process of feeling good, and the moment arrives when, if you don't feel pain, you have a sense that the exercises aren't having the desired effect.”
― Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes

“She was doing it because she had nothing to lose, because her life was one of constant, day to day frustration.”
― Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes

“I was blessed with another trait I inherited from my mother, her ability to forget the pain in life. I remember the thing that caused the trauma, but I don't hold onto the trauma. I never let the memory of something painful prevent me from trying something new. If you think too much about the ass kicking your mom gave you or the ass kicking that life gave you, you’ll stop pushing the boundaries and breaking the rules. It’s better to take it, spend some time crying, then wake up the next day and move on. You’ll have a few bruises and they’ll remind you of what happened and that’s ok. But after a while, the bruises fade and they fade for a reason. Because now, it’s time to get up to some shit again.”
― Trevor Noah, Born a Crime: Stories From a South African Childhood

“وإذ قلنا للملائكة اسجدوا لآدم فسجدوا إلا إبليس...، أفتتخذونه وذريته أولياء من دوني وهم لكم عدو؟
ويشبه أن يكون تحت هذا الخطاب نوع من العتاب لطيف عجيب! وهو أني عاديت إبليس إذ لم يسجد لأبيكم آدم مع ملائكتي، فكانت معاداته لأجلكم، ثم كان عاقبة هذه المعاداة أن عقدتم بينكم وبينه عقد المصالحة؟”
