Having our fundamental assumptions about life challenged is never a comfortable thing.

In an unhealthy way, I found a lot of validity in having always been a very good athlete, a very good baseball player, and I've since grown out of that place into a different perspective and learned how to live differently, thankfully, where baseball is certainly something that's very important to me. It's not who I am, though. It's just what I do.

R.A. Dickey

As far as writing, it's grown because I've really grown comfortable with who I am.

Eric Church

Some people would say having a feminist perspective is political, but I don't think it is. I think it's just having a female perspective.

Amanda de Cadenet

I think, having grown up with the Internet, things like trolls and the world of having an online life as well as a physical one, it's something I've grown up with.

We're comfortable with movie stars having money. We're comfortable with a woman marrying a rich guy and having money. We're not so comfortable with a woman independently working in business and making a lot of money.

Candace Bushnell

Now I truly believe that we in this generation must come to terms with nature, and I think we're challenged, as mankind has never been challenged before, to prove our maturity and our mastery, not of nature but of ourselves.

Rachel Carson

The internet has grown so tremendously fast in our society. It is the fastest communications technology in the history of the world. (It) grew from almost a dead stop in 1995 to having 80 million users in the United States alone in five years. Nothing has grown that fast.

William E. Kennard

I'm a loner, and I'm most comfortable living by myself, but Bengaluru is home for me, as my family is there. Having said that, once you come to Mumbai, you can't turn your back on it. I've grown close to Mumbai now.

Kriti Kharbanda

Historically, I guess that's how science fiction works: you start by using aliens to think the unthinkable ? and then, eventually, another writer, having grown a little more comfortable with the earlier notion, brings it into the human.

Samuel R. Delany

If you don't feel challenged, it's because you're not doing enough. Ballet should never feel comfortable. Comfortable is lazy! If you're comfortable when you dance, you're not pushing yourself hard enough. 100 % is not enough. You have to give 200%. One tendu takes years of hard work and will never be perfect. Everything in ballet is a challenge.

George Balanchine

Ryan Gosling

I love to be challenged, and I'm never sitting comfortable in the mediocrity chair.

Jaime Camil

Perspective should never influence punishment. Too often in our society, we practice selective perspective. We're willing to see all the angles only when it suits us. When perspective becomes inconvenient, we can be unflinching, even cruel.

Jemele Hill

With grown children, we can look back at both our mistakes and what we did well in our parenting, having conversations with a greater degree of honesty than was possible before. In getting older themselves, our adult children may begin to comprehend the burdens and strengths we carried from our own parents.
