To THINK BIG and to use our talents doesn't mean we won't have difficulties along the way. We will-we all do. If we choose to see the obstacles in our path as barriers, we stop trying. "We can't win," we moan. "They won't let us win.
[Ace is having difficulty with throwing knives] Ace Levy: Sir, I don't understand. What goods' a knife in a nuke fight? All you have to do is press a button, sir. Career Sergeant Zim: Put your hand on that wall trooper. PUT YOUR HAND ON THAT WALL! [Zim throws a knife and hits Ace's hand pinning it to the wall] Career Sergeant Zim: The enemy can not press a button... if you have disabled his hand. Medic!
Bad times have a scientific value. These are occasions a good learner would not miss.
It's challenging in the way that it's a lot of work, I'm very busy. It's challenging in a way that it's a sequel and I feel I got big shoes to fill. I wasn't at all affiliated with the first one and it was very successful and I'm just kind of afraid that people will get to the theatre and say: "Who's this girl? She wasn't in the first one!" So that pressure is there and in that sense...it has been difficult (On her role in Final Destination 2 (2003)).
Darth Maul: Tatooine is sparsely populated. If the homing trace is correct, I will find them quickly, Master. Darth Sideous: Move against the Jedi first. You will then have no difficulty in taking the Queen back to Naboo to sign the treaty. Darth Maul: At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge. Darth Sideous: You have been well trained my young apprentice. They will be no match for you.
Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did.
Martin Q. Blank: Don't you think that maybe you're just upset because I told you what I do for a living, and you got upset and *you're* letting it interfere with *our* dynamic? Dr. Oatman: Whoa. Martin. You didn't tell me what you did for a living... Martin Q. Blank: Yes, I did! Dr. Oatman: You didn't tell me what you did for a living for *four* sessions. *Then* you told me. And I said, "I don't want to work with you any more." And yet, you come back each week at the same time. That's a difficulty for me. On top of that, if you've committed a crime or you're thinking about committing a crime, I have to tell the authorities. Martin Q. Blank: I know the law, okay? But I don't want to be withholding; I'm very serious about this process. [pause] Martin Q. Blank: And I know where you live. Dr. Oatman: Oh, now see? That wasn't a nice thing to say; that wasn't designed to make me feel good. That's a... kind of a... not too subtle intimidation, and I, uh, get filled with anxiety when you talk about something like that. Martin Q. Blank: Come on, come on. I was just kidding, all right? The thought never crossed my mind. Dr. Oatman: You did think of it, Martin! You thought it, and then you said it. And now, I'm left with the aftermath of that, thinking I gotta be creative in a really interesting way or Martin's gonna blow my brains out! You're holding me hostage. That's not right.
Dr. Warren Koven: The human voice is not real complex. It's a sound that nature has very little difficulty mimicking. Now, what I'm gonna play for you is real. It was recorded in a farmhouse in the Berkshires, 1976. [He begins typing on his computer] Dr. Warren Koven: It was heard by multiple witnesses, caught on tape, sworn to in an affidavit. Okay? It's the real McCoy. Uh, please. [He beckons Becket over, and Becket slides his chair to sit near the computer. Koven starts a brief audio file that sounds like someone sighing or whispering] Dr. Warren Koven: Isn't that amazing? This is an authentic aural event. Now, that's probably what we call a chi cluster. It's a build-up of chi field energy then released into the sonic spectrum. Bryan Becket: But it's not words. Dr. Warren Koven: What do you mean? Bryan Becket: How does it come out as words? You know? In an intelligent sentence structure. Dr. Warren Koven: Well, it doesn't. I mean, maybe it does once in a million, like those monkeys typing sonnets, but... Bryan Becket: No, but it did. For me. The voice that I heard spoke. It did not just say oooh ahhh, it said something like, "An old trunk." And it kept repeating it, over and over. "An old trunk," or "In an old trunk." As if to suggest that I...
Mary: I'm putting you down as "Very Hard". Craig: I would say twenty thousand very hards, plus or minus fifty percent. Mary: I'm afraid each change request can only be assigned a single difficulty rating. What about you, Dave? Dave: I'm also "Very Hard."
[Havana is having difficulty driving Zeke's truck] Ezekiel: Why didn't you tell me you can't drive? Havana: I can drive! I just can't drive stick! Ezekiel: Why is it so hard? It's simple! Havana: If it was simple, I could do it! Ezekiel: Look, you put your foot on the gears as you turn the wheel. Then, you take your foot off the gears and you step on the gas! Havana: That's what I'm doing! Ezekiel: No you're not! God, why do you start so much?
A man of character finds a special attractiveness in difficulty, since it is only by coming to grips with difficulty that he can realize his potentialities.
Sean: [playing Joseph in Christmas play] Behold! Can the people in the back behold? Can the people in the front please make room for those in the back who have difficulty beholding?
In all honesty...very! It involves a lot of traveling, so I am basically on planes half of the time, and when I am on the ground I am so jet lagged that it is hard to keep up. Being away from my family and friends is also very difficult for me because I am very close to them, but the other side of the coin is very positive. I get to travel, see the world, meet people and be independent. I feel blessed.
Albert Einstein's Rules of Work: 1) Out of clutter, find simplicity. 2) From discord, find harmony. 3) In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.
