Passion Quotes
The undisciplined are slaves to moods, appetites and passions
Stephen Covey
A people contending for life and liberty are seldom disposed to look with a favorable eye upon either men or measures whose passions, interests or consequences will clash with those inestimable objects.
George Washington
If people were possessed by reason, running marathons would never work. But we are not creatures of reason. We are creatures of passion.
Noel Carroll
Chicago actors and Chicago theater is some of the most authentic stuff that you will ever encounter, and I'm so proud to have come up from that. It's where I cut my teeth and where I found my passion for this work.
Merle Dandridge
One, if you attack my integrity, I will defend myself. If you attack my patriotism, I will defend myself. If you come after my family, I will counter-attack viciously, I will destroy you.
Scott Ritter
It is that happy stretch of time when the lovers set to chronicling their passion. When no glance, no tone of voice is so fleeting but it shines with significance. When each moment, each perception is brought out with care, unfolded like a precious gem from its layers of the softest tissue paper and laid in front of the beloved — turned this way and that, examined, considered.

My work is one of my passions, so I want to treat it with great importance, whatever the project or role. As any motorcycle enthusiast can probably attest to, getting your motorcycle looking and riding the best certainly holds a high rating of importance. And if I don't finish the Lego city with my son, then I meet the wrath of an extremely assertive four-year-old project manager.

My passion has been to build an enduring company where people were motivated to make great products. Everything else was secondary. Sure, it was great to make a profit, because that was what allowed you to make great products. But the products, not the profits were the motivation.
Steve Jobs
A lot of times I pick passion projects but at the end of the day, I don't think much of what's going to work, I want to think about how it feels to do the work.
Eric Roberson
When you have your passion, you never even think about other things. It's tunnel vision. You go until you get it.
Nicola Peltz
Passion can’t sustain itself forever.
Haruki Murakami
Digression is my passion. I love telling the main stories, but in some ways, what I love most is using those narratives as a way of stringing together the interesting stories that people have kind of forgotten, and that are kind of surprising. The problem is, how do you pare stories away so that the book doesn't become a distracting jumble of material, and readers lose focus? In my experience, there's really only one way to do that. I pack it all in with the rough draft, then count on myself and my trusted readers to tell me what's good and what's not good.
Erik Larson
