Passion

There is in most passions a shrinking away from ourselves. The passionate pursuer has all the earmarks of a fugitive.
- Hoffer, Eric
Passion Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Passion

1.
Get into a line that you will find to be a deep personal interest, something you really enjoy spending twelve to fifteen hours a day working at, and the rest of the time thinking about.
Nightingale, Earl

2.
Passion doesn't look beyond the moment of its existence.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

3.
Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion.
Georg Wilhelm

4.
The happiness in this life does not consist of being devoid of passion, but mastering them.

5.
Compassion automatically invites you to relate with people because you no longer regard people as a drain on your energy.
Trungpa, Chogyam

Few people have ever seriously wished to be exclusively rational. The good life which most desire is a life warmed by passions and touched with that ceremonial grace which is impossible without some affectionate loyalty to traditional form and ceremonies.
Krutch, Joseph Wood

7.
What our age lacks is not reflection, but passion.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

8.
It is easier to exclude harmful passions than to rule them, and to deny them admittance than to control them after they have been admitted.
Seneca

9.
Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it.
Oprah Winfrey

10.
There is in most passions a shrinking away from ourselves. The passionate pursuer has all the earmarks of a fugitive.
Hoffer, Eric

11.
The worst sin - perhaps the only sin - passion can commit, is to be joyless.
Dorothy L. Sayers

12.
You've got to get obsessed and stay obsessed.
Irving, John

13.
A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them.
Jung, Carl

14.
Our passions are the winds that propel our vessel. Our reason is the pilot that steers her. Without winds the vessel would not move and without a pilot she would be lost.
Saying

15.
Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless.
Balzac, Honore De

16.
Passion makes idiots of the cleverest men, and makes the biggest idiots clever.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

17.
Care is a state in which something does matter; it is the source of human tenderness.
May, Rollo

18.
There is nothing heavier than compassion. Not even one's own pain weighs so heavy as the pain one feels with someone, for someone, a pain intensified by the imagination and prolonged by a hundred echoes.
Kundera, Milan

19.
I know the compassion of others is a relief at first. I don't despise it. But it can't quench pain, it slips through your soul as through a sieve. And when our suffering has been dragged from one pity to another, as from one mouth to another, we can no longer respect or love it.
Bernanos, Georges

20.
You will need to find your passion. Don't give up on finding it because then all you're doing is waiting for the Reaper.
Randy Pausch

21.
When we come into contact with the other person, our thoughts and actions should express our mind of compassion, even if that person says and does things that are not easy to accept. We practice in this way until we see clearly that our love is not contingent upon the other person being lovable.
ThÝch Nhat Hanh

22.
Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to all creative endeavors.
Smith, Eugene W.

23.
You will not find your passion in things and you will not find your passion in money. The more things and the more money you have, the more you will look around and use that as the metric and there will be someone with more.
Randy Pausch

24.
He only employs his passion who can make no use of his reason.
Cicero

25.
Passion is the genesis of genius.
Robbins, Anthony

26.
You may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion.
Eckhart, Meister

27.
Passion costs me too much to bestow it on every trifle.
Adams, Thomas

28.
Passion is the quickest to develop, and the quickest to fade. Intimacy develops more slowly, and commitment more gradually still.
Robert Sternberg

29.
The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another
Merton, Thomas

30.
I had learnt to seek intensityàmore of life, a concentrated sense of life.
Nina Berberova

31.
I always tried to make clear that basketball is not the ultimate. It is of small importance in comparison to the total life we live. There is only one kind of life that truly wins, and that is the one that places faith in the hands of the Savior. Until that is done, we are on an aimless course that runs in circles and goes nowhere.
Wooden, John

32.
Passion is the trigger of success.

33.
Compassion is the antitoxin of the soul: where there is compassion even the most poisonous impulses remain relatively harmless.
Hoffer, Eric

34.
We could hardly wait to get up in the morning.
Wright, Wilbur

35.
Biblical orthodoxy without compassion is surely the ugliest thing in the world.
Schaeffer, Francis

36.
Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music -- the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
Miller, Henry

Sartre, Jean-Paul

Only passions, great passions can elevate the soul to great things.
Diderot, Denis

41.
Judgement, not passion should prevail.
Epicharmus

42.
It is foolish to pretend that one is fully recovered from a disappointed passion. Such wounds always leave a scar.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

43.
The dew of compassion is a tear.
Byron, Lord

44.
Passion, though a bad regulator, is a powerful spring.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

45.
Minerva save us from the cloying syrup of coercive compassion!
Paglia, Camille

46.
Compassion has no place in the natural order of the world which operates on the basis of necessity. Compassion opposes this order and is therefore best thought of as being in some way supernatural.
Berger, John

The fire which enlightens is the same fire which consumes.
Amiel, Henri Frederic
