slogans



I hela mitt liv har jag samlat ihop mina tankar i korta fraser, aforismer eller ”kvällstidningsrubriker”, som fångar min syn och uppfattning i en kort mening som är lätt att komma ihåg. På sistone har jag lärt mig att man gör så även inom Zen, beskriver ett resonemang eller en inbjudan till att kontemplera i slogans.

Här är några av mina favoriter:

Turen förföljer den skicklige.

Att sätta ett negativt mål är som att gå och handla med en lista på saker som du inte vill köpa.

Get going. Get up and walk if you have to, but finish the damned race!

We can’t all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by.

You have run all the strength, all the superficial fitness out of yourself, and it really comes down to what’s left inside you. To be able to draw deep and pull something out of yourself is one of the most tremendous things about the marathon.
Rob de Castella

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

Courage is knowing it might hurt, and doing it anyway. Stupidity is the same. And that’s why life is hard.

A mind is like a parachute. It doesn’t work if it is not open.
