it is a peaceful thing to be one succeeding. — © Gertrude Stein
it is a peaceful thing to be one succeeding.
The Russians are succeeding in continuing their dismemberment of Ukraine, they're succeeding in exerting enormous influence in the Middle East, which they never had before. They are succeeding - they have succeeded in interfering with our election, and we know that they continue that in the French elections and other elections. And so far they have paid a little or no penalty for all of this misbehavior.
By strengthening the three pillars of the United Nations - security, development and human rights - we can build a more peaceful, more prosperous and more just world for our succeeding generations.
We are succeeding in Iraq. It's a tough struggle with setbacks, but we are succeeding.
The First Amendment does not extend to corporations. It's a U.S. government thing. Companies can shut speech down all they want. But the thing is this is destructive. This is discriminatory. And what they're telling themselves is they're making a much more peaceful environment. "We are creating a much more conducive and productive and peaceful environment," when they're not. They're suppressing opinion. They are inflicting their own world view and demanding that it be agreed with and acceded to. And if it's not, you get fired.
You shouldn't fear failure. You should fear succeeding at the wrong thing. I may fail, but I'm failing at the right thing.
The only thing better than succeeding is watching people you know fail.
Still, accomplishment is unreliable. "Succeeding," whatever that might mean to you, is hard, and the need to do so constantly renews itself (success is like a mountain that keeps growing ahead of you as you hike it), and there's the very real danger that "succeeding" will take up your whole life, while the big questions go untended.
There is something very unsettling about being with someone when they die. People say it's peaceful. It's not peaceful. It's the most personal thing you can do, is die, and you feel almost like you're invading someone's most personal moment by being there.
even when peaceful cooperation is the obvious thing, the only thing that will keep any of us alive- There are still people who won't make that choice
I meditate so I know how to find a peaceful place within to be calm and peaceful.
The Government wants a peaceful settlement. But we totally reject a peaceful sell-out.
I live in a peaceful world because I choose to think loving and peaceful thoughts.
That's what I want to be when I grow up, just a peaceful wreck holding hands with other peaceful wrecks.
We must pursue peaceful end through peaceful means.
We must persuade Iran not t have nuclear weapons through peaceful and diplomatic means. We want a peaceful planet.
I respect marriage, and I think it's beautiful that people do it. But for me, more important than anything is having a peaceful life and a peaceful home.
