A Quote by Keri Hulme

I am in limbo, and in limbo there are no races, no prizes, no changes, no chances. There are merely degrees of endurance, and endurance never was my strong point.

Every limbo boy and girl, all around the limbo world. Gonna do the limbo rock, all around the limbo clock.

Chubby Checker

Humans are built for endurance, not speed. We're awful sprinters compared to every other animal. We try to run our races as if they were speed races, but they are not. They're endurance races. Even a marathon, the way it's run now, it's not an endurance contest.

Christopher McDougall

Limbo is the place. In Limbo one has natural happiness without the beatific vision; no harps; no communal order; but wine and conversation and imperfect, various humanity. Limbo for the unbaptized, for the pious heathen, the sincere sceptic.

Evelyn Waugh

In Formula 1, you need a great level of endurance because the races are long, so you need a pretty good base endurance.

Daniel Ricciardo

Endurance cannot be produced by determination alone; endurance is a product of physical exercise.

Len Smith

Endurance involves much more than putting up with a situation; Patient Endurance is more than pacing up and down within the cell of circumstance. True Enduring represents not merely the passage of time, . . . but the Passage of Soul.

Neal A. Maxwell

My endurance has always been a strong point of mine... I think that has helped me in my fights.

Carlos Condit

Character produces endurance and persistence when the going gets tough, and life truly is an endurance race, not a sprint.

Zig Ziglar

Perseverance is more than endurance. It is endurance combined with absolute assurance and certainty that what we are looking for is going to happen.

Oswald Chambers

There are houses whose souls have passed into the limbo of Time, leaving their bodies in the limbo of London. Such was not quite the condition of Timothy's on the Bayswater Road, for Timothy's soul still had one foot in Timothy Forsyte's body, and Smither kept the atmosphere unchanging, of camphor and port wine and house whose windows are only opened to air it twice a day.

John Galsworthy

I am the soul in limbo.

Andre Breton

Become strong again in spirit, strong in will, strong in endurance, strong to bear all sacrifices

Adolf Hitler

I would hope that my readers feel a sense of awe at the quality of human endurance, at the endurance of love in the face of a variety of difficulties; that the quotidian life is not always easy, and is something worthy of respect.

Elizabeth Strout

I can still be 200 kilograms but still have enough endurance for strongman - I feel like if I get much heavier than that it's going to affect my endurance a lot.

Hafthor Bjornsson

endurance of inescapable sorrow is something which has to be learned alone. And only to endure is not enough. Endurance can be a harsh and bitter root in one's life, bearing poisonous and gloomy fruit, destroying other lives. Endurance is only the beginning. There must be acceptance and the knowledge that sorrow fully accepted brings its own gifts. For there is an alchemy in sorrow. It can be transmuted into wisdom, which, if it does not bring joy, can yet bring happiness.

Pearl S. Buck

The disciple must have great power of endurance. Bear all evil and misery without one thought of unhappiness, resistance, remedy, or retaliation. That is true endurance, and that you must acquire.

Swami Vivekananda
