To achieve great things we must be self-confined...mastery is revealed in limitation.

Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling

Mastery is proven only in limitation, and law alone can give us freedom.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Mastery requires endurance. Mastery, a word we don’t use often, is not the equivalent of what we might consider its cognate—perfectionism—an inhuman aim motivated by a concern with how others view us. Mastery is also not the same as success—an event-based victory based on a peak point, a punctuated moment in time. Mastery is not merely a commitment to a goal, but to a curved-line, constant pursuit.

Sarah Lewis

You can see my decision as either a distinctive factor or as a limitation. I don't feel it is a limitation.

Ennio Morricone

No person whose entire time is spent in the contemplation of limitation can demonstrate freedom from such limitation.

Ernest Holmes

First teach a person to develop to the point of his limitation and then-pfft!-break the limitation.

Viola Spolin

Belief in limitation is the one and only thing that causes limitation.

Thomas Troward

But harmony is limitation. Thus rightness of limitation is essential for growth of reality. Unlimited possibility and abstract creativity can procure nothing.

Alfred North Whitehead

She who succeeds in gaining the mastery of the bicycle will gain the mastery of life.

Susan B. Anthony

Creativity follows mastery, so mastery of skills is the first priority for young talent.

Benjamin Bloom

Technical skill is mastery of complexity, while creativity is mastery of simplicity.

Christopher Zeeman

Mastery.- We have reached mastery when we neither mistake nor hesitate in the achievement.

Friedrich Nietzsche

The mastery of nature is vainly believed to be an adequate substitute for self mastery.

Reinhold Niebuhr

And in spite of all the mastery we've attained, we don't have enough mastery to stop devastating the world, or to repair the devastation we've already wrought.
