Quotes:

Most people who succeed in the face of seemingly impossible conditions are people who simply don't know how to quit.
View quotes by Robert Schuller

All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.
View quotes by Orison Swett Marden

It is impossible to obtain a conviction for sodomy from an English jury. Half of them don't believe that it can physically be done, and the other half are doing it.
View quotes by Winston Churchill

Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah.
View quotes by Richard Bach

Again and again, the impossible problem is solved when we see that the problem is only a tough decision waiting to be made.
View quotes by Robert Schuller

A resolution to avoid an evil is seldom framed till the evil is so far advanced as to make avoidance impossible.
View quotes by Thomas Hardy

It is impossible to sharpen a pencil with a blunt axe. It is equally vain to try to do it with ten blunt axes instead. [Profound words from Edsgar!]
View quotes by Edsgar Dijkstra

Doing easily what others find difficult is talent; doing what is impossible for talent is genius.
View quotes by Henri-Frederic Amiel

The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible - and achieve it, generation after generation.
View quotes by Pearl Buck

When a goal matters enough to a person, that person will find a way to accomplish what at first seemed impossible.
View quotes by Nido Qubein

What we can or cannot do, what we consider possible or impossible, is rarely a function of our true capability. It is more likely a function of our beliefs about who we are.
View quotes by Anthony Robbins

Romantic love is mental illness. But it's a pleasurable one. It's a drug. It distorts reality, and that's the point of it. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone that you really saw.
View quotes by Fran Lebowitz

Never stop because you are afraid - you are never so likely to be wrong. Never keep a line of retreat: it is a wretched invention. The difficult is what takes a little time; the impossible is what takes a little longer.
View quotes by Fridtjof Nansen

Fear nothing but what thy industry may prevent; be confident of nothing but what fortune cannot defeat; it is no less folly to fear what is impossible to be avoided than to be secure when there is a possibility to be deprived.
View quotes by Francis Quarles

'I: No no you can't. It's impossible I swear it. I've looked into it. 'Listen to me listen to me. There are things in there, there's a tea-bag growing. You haven't slept in sixty hours you're in no state to tackle it. Wait till the morning we'll go in together.'
View quotes by Withnail And I

Destiny is an absolutely definite and inexorable ruler. Physical ability and moral determination count for nothing. It is impossible to perform the simplest act when the gods say 'no.' I have no idea how they bring pressure to bear on such occasions; I only know that it is irresistible.
View quotes by Aleister Crowley

Anyone who knows anything of history knows that great social changes are impossible without feminine upheaval. Social progress can be measured exactly by the social position of the fair sex, the ugly ones included.
View quotes by Karl Marx

A series of rumours about my attitude, as well as derogatory remarks about myself and my family showed me that the personal resentment of the Detroit general manager toward me would make it impossible for me to continue playing hockey in Detroit.
View quotes by Ted Lindsay

The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.
View quotes by Ayn Rand

The lover of life makes the whole world into his family, just as the lover of the fair sex creates his from all the lovely women he has found, from those that could be found, and those who are impossible to find.
View quotes by Charles Baudelaire
