I make a lot of throws off-balance and a lot of throws just using my arm.

Jameis Winston

I have a gigantic head, sometimes it throws me off balance.

Simon Nessman

Anything that keeps me off balance is vital.

Brie Larson

When we're sad, we slouch. We also slouch when we feel scared or powerless.

Amy Cuddy

When someone throws a power shot and you want to counter, you have to lean into it as you block it so that you can come right out with what you are throwing. If you roll away or lean back, it's going to knock you off balance, and you won't be able to counter the punch. Being able to do that comes from experience, and life is the same exact way.

Cub Swanson

It's scary being loved. Because life is complicated and all too often it throws you off balance by sending you the right person at the wrong time.

Guillaume Musso

Two people can have a middling day, but one rounds up and the other rounds down.

Robert Breault

Not being secure affects us as humans. It throws us off our balance. It puts us in disarray.

Sonequa Martin-Green

In this life, we are in a constant search for inner peace. We long for it in all aspects of our lives, both personally and professionally. The truth is that we cannot have inner peace without balance. It seems that having too much or too little of anything completely throws off our balance, therefore limiting our inner peace.

Raheem DeVaughn

To be alive in this beautiful, self-organizing universe -- to participate in the dance of life with senses to perceive it, lungs that breathe it, organs that draw nourishment from it -- is a wonder beyond words.

Joanna Macy

Juggling is the word. I'm a bad juggler, and there are often balls dropped. There is no balance. The idea of work/life balance is a myth. There's teetering from one end and running to the other and hoping not to fall off.

Sonya Walger

A newborn child has to cry, for only in this way will his lungs expand. A doctor once told me of a child who could not breathe when it was born. In order to make it breathe the doctor gave it a slight blow. The mother must have thought the doctor cruel. But he was really doing the kindest thing possible. As with newborn children the lungs are contracted, so are our spiritual lungs. But through suffering God strikes us in love. Then our lungs expand and we can breathe and pray.

Sadhu Sundar Singh

A random rumor that did a rounds about me was that I am an actor who throws tantrums on the sets and likes to be treated like a King. Which is false.

Ravi Kishan

Streets and their sidewalks-the main public places of a city-are its most vital organs.

Jane Jacobs

Since my asana techniques increase circulation to all organs in the body and increase lung efficiency, I recommend Bikram Balance natural whole food beverage as a way to provide all the critical nutrients to oxygenate the blood and restore the acid/alkaline balance.
