For having lived long I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information or fuller consideration to change opinions even on important subjects which I once thought right but found to be otherwise.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world indeed it's the only thing that ever has.
Change your thoughts and you change your world.
Without accepting the fact that everything changes we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately although it is true it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of transience we suffer.
A small group of thoughtful people could change the world. Indeed it's the only thing that ever has.
So the first thing that I thought about was 'How is this car going to handle?' But then after I'd been driving with it and practicing with it and I accomplished that then I just kind of sat back.
In high school during marathon phone conversations cheap pizza dinners and long suburban car rides I began to fall for boys because of who they actually were or at least who I thought they might become.
There were times when I thought I would never own a car.
I drank a lot when I was a teenager and I don't drink any more because that's when I thought you know I'm gonna end up a car wreck.
It's a tricky place especially the last sector. I wasn't happy in practice. I wasn't happy with the car and I wasn't happy with myself. But I always thought there was more in the car.
I keep my weight low although you need to be able to move your weight around the race car to change the balance. I'm 6ft and I'm 70kg so I haven't much fat on me.
One morning about four o'clock I was driving my car just about as fast as I could. I thought Why am I out this time of night? I was miserable and it came to me: I'm falling in love with somebody I have no right to fall in love with.
People who have car collections - I never understood that. I always thought that was unnecessary. It's not beautiful it's not creative. It's just showing how much money you've got.
The first real thought that I had of something that I might do was to write for car magazines because I always had a car thing.
Shutting off the thought process is not rejuvenating the mind is like a car battery - it recharges by running.
(On seeing a former lover for the first time in years) I thought I told you to wait in the car.
Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment you perform better when your thoughts feelings emotions goals and values are in balance.
I would never kill a living thing although I probably have inadvertently while driving automobiles.
There was a time in my life when I thought I had everything - millions of dollars mansions cars nice clothes beautiful women and every other materialistic thing you can imagine. Now I struggle for peace.
After adding trillions to the debt on big-government policies most Americans didn't ask for and which we couldn't afford Democratic leaders say they need more money which they intend to take from small business even though small businesses create the majority of new jobs.
A transfer of money should never be involved in this profound situation. Although illness is profound too but medicine's a business today. It's a business.
Although my family - parents and sister - all work in the personnel management business their real passion is performing amateur operatic societies and so on.
I think I thought it would be important for electronics as we knew it then but that was a much simpler business and electronics was mostly radio and television and the first computers.
I cannot stand the people who get wonderful starts in show business and who abuse it. Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen for example although there are plenty of others too. They are the most blessed people in the world and they don't appreciate it.
Even if people do wrong we're social animals so what can we do about stopping them doing the same things in future? Saying people are 'bad' or 'evil' is just an unwillingness to engage an unwillingness to try to empathise. That sanctimonious attitude doesn't help anyone.
