If you remain static and wait for success to come to you it will certainly not happen.

Steve Backley

At a certain point you can't help but lose some feel for what's on the ground because you're not on the ground.

Barack Obama

On dispersive ground, therefore, fight not. On facile ground, halt not. On contentious ground, attack not. On open ground, do not try to block the enemy's way. On the ground of intersecting highways, join hands with your allies. On serious ground, gather in plunder. In difficult ground, keep steadily on the march. On hemmed-in ground, resort to stratagem. On desperate ground, fight.

Sun Tzu

A life spent entirely in public, in the presence of others, becomes, as we would say, shallow. While it retains its visibility, it loses its quality of rising into sight from some darker ground which must remain hidden if it is not to lose its depth in a very real, non-subjective sense.

Hannah Arendt

Real people - the interesting ones, anyway - don't remain static, and neither do the ones I write about. Changes take place, and they react to them.

P. N. Elrod

A. A. Gill

I lose faith and I lose ground, but then I see you and remember unconditional love.

Cyndi Lauper

I think we've done a pretty good job staying in touch with the American people. But at a certain point you can't help but lose some feel for what's on the ground because you're not on the ground.

Barack Obama

Be the first to seize intersecting ground, that is ground which lies the intersections of borders or intersections of main thoroughfares of commerce and travel. Your occupation of it gives you access to all who border it and all who would covet it. On intersecting ground, if you establish alliances you are safe, if you lose alliances you are in peril.

Sun Tzu

Democracy cannot be static. Whatever is static is dead.

Eleanor Roosevelt

There are people who not only strive to remain static themselves, but strive to keep everything else so... their position is almost laughably hopeless.

Odell Shepard

Sometimes a people lose their right to remain silent when pressured to remain silent.

Criss Jami

Mind severed from body, culture from planet- to lose our ground is to lose our home.

Anodea Judith

The convenience of timekeeping is greatly overrated; and the people who practice it so faithfully that they lose the capacity for appreciating the fixed and the static and the spatially related experiences cut themselves off from a good part of reality.

Lewis Mumford

Even if we remain flexible, we need ground rules.

Horst Seehofer

When you worry, you go over the same ground endlessly and come out the same place you started. Thinking makes progress from one place to another; worry remains static.

Harold Bridgwood Walker
