“In the course of my life I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet.” Winston Churchill
Eating your words
Taking the hill!
“Today is your day! Our mountain is waiting, So…get on your way.” Dr. Seuss
Taking the hill?
Stubborn?
“And certainly, the mistakes that we male and female mortals make when we have our own way might fairly raise some wonder that we are so fond of it.” George Eliot, Middlemarch
Too stubborn?
Ignorance of Scripture
“Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ.”-St. Jerome
“Ignorance of Scriptures is ignorance of Christ” St. Jerome
First impressions
“After all, what can a first impression tell us about someone we’ve just met for a minute in the lobby of a hotel? For that matter, what can a first impression tell us about anyone? Why, no more than a chord can tell us about Beethoven, or a brushstroke about Botticelli. By their very nature, human beings are so capricious, so complex, so delightfully contradictory, that they deserve not only our consideration, but our reconsideration—and our unwavering determination to withhold our opinion until we have engaged with them in every possible setting at every possible hour.”
― Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow
