Pleasure Quotes
-
Get pleasure out of life...as much as you can. Nobody every died from pleasure.
Sol Hurok
-
My mind is in so many different places while we're shooting. Part of it is watching the performance, part of it is watching the camera, and part of it is thinking about the stuff that we have to get that day. It's always a pleasure watching, but you also take it for granted, when you're on the actual grind, making the show.
Cary Fukunaga
-
I get a fine warm feeling when I'm doing well, but that pleasure is pretty much negated by the pain of getting started each day. Let's face it, writing is hell.
William Styron
-
I take great pleasure, every day, in seeing my work deeply rooted in our native soil.
Martin Heidegger
-
All the earth is seamed with roads, and all the sea is furrowed with the tracks of ships, and over all the roads and all the waters a continuous stream of people passes up and down - traveling, as they say, for their pleasure. What is it, I wonder, that they go out to see?
Gertrude Bell
-
In the chapters on the biology of trauma we saw how trauma and abandonment disconnect people from their body as a source of pleasure and comfort, or even as a part of themselves that needs care and nurturance. When we cannot rely on our body to signal safety or warning and instead feel chronically overwhelmed by physical stirrings, we lose the capacity to feel at home in our own skin and, by extension, in the world. As long as their map of the world is based on trauma, abuse, and neglect, people are likely to seek shortcuts to oblivion. Anticipating rejection, ridicule, and deprivation, they are reluctant to try out new options, certain that these will lead to failure. This lack of experimentation traps people in a matrix of fear, isolation, and scarcity where it is impossible to welcome the very experiences that might change their basic worldview.
Bessel van der Kolk
-
You need great passion, because everything you do with great pleasure, you do well.
Juan Manuel Fangio
-
God's pleasure with me is grounded in the accomplishment of Christ, not my own accomplishment.
R. C. Sproul, Jr.
-
The most important reason for going from one place to another is to see what's in between, and they took great pleasure in doing just that.
Norton Juster
-
Fear and aversion, in some perverse way, can be transformed into pleasure.
Bessel van der Kolk
-
Belief is desecrated when given to unproved and unquestioned statements for the solace and private pleasure of the believer . . . It is wrong always, everywhere, and for every one, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence.
William James
-
Make treating yourself a priority and always remember your life is happening now. Don't put off all your dreams and pleasures to another day. In any balanced personal definition of success there has to be a powerful element of living life in the present.
Mireille Guiliano
