There is always an ordsprog

There is always an inertia to be overcome in striking out a new line of conduct -- not more in ourselves, it seems, than in circumscribing events, which appear as if leagued together to allow no novelties in the way of amelioration.

Thomas Hardy (1840-1928)

Thomas Hardy

Don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.

W. Clement Stone (1902-2002)

W. Clement Stone

So many fail because they don't get started - they don't go. They don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.

W. Clement Stone (1902-2002)

Western society has accepted as unquestionable a technological imperative that is quite as arbitrary as the most primitive taboo: not merely the duty to foster invention and constantly to create technological novelties, but equally the duty to surrender to these novelties unconditionally, just because they are offered, without respect to their human consequences.

Lewis Mumford (1895-1990)

Lewis Mumford

We can and we should use existing laws to prosecute most unlawful conduct on the Internet, ... We must ensure that regulation of unlawful conduct on the Internet is treated in the same manner as off-line conduct.

Janet Reno (1938-)

Short-term success is not the goal. It?s long-term resolution. It takes a lot of mental energy to overcome inertia and commit to overcoming a bad habit.

Total physical and mental inertia are highly agreeable, much more so than we allow ourselves to imagine. A beach not only permits such inertia but enforces it, thus neatly eliminating all problems of guilt. It is now the only place in our overly active world that does.

John Kenneth Galbraith (1908-)

We will move all of our striking teams to residential areas. They will no longer conduct offensive operations to seek and destroy GAM, A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness.

Endriartono Sutarto

Historically, you have lot of great content minds at Disney and Viacom and all the media conglomerates. But there's also been a big hesitation to try new things, and there's been a lot of inertia at the big media companies. One thing I don't think anyone has accused Steve Jobs of is inertia.

Anthony Valencia

The natural law of inertia: Matter will remain at rest or continue in uniform motion in the same straight line unless acted upon by some external force.

W. Clement Stone (1902-2002)

W. Clement Stone

The biggest part of the game was tying to overcome our deficit at the free-throw line. They are one of the better free throw shooting teams in the league. It was difficult to overcome.

Our kids really fought to get back in the game and gave themselves a chance to win. We had to play so hard to overcome a lot. We had to play perfectly in a lot of areas. We had to make fewer turnovers, we had to get more rebounds and we had to get to the free throw line more than we did. It was tough to overcome but we gave it a shot.

He who asks fortune-tellers the future unwittingly forfeits an inner intimation of coming events that is a thousand times more exact than anything they may say. He is impelled by inertia, rather than curiosity, and nothing is more unlike the submissive apathy with which he hears his fate revealed than the alert dexterity with which the man of courage lays hands on the future.

Walter Benjamin (1892-1940)

Through virtuous conduct he obtains long life, through virtuous conduct desirable offspring, through virtuous conduct imperishable wealth, virtuous conduct destroys ,the effect of inauspicious marks.

Guru Nanak (1469-1539)

Guru Nanak

We recognize there are a lot of events that are converging at this very moment, but we don't see them as linked and we don't see them as a crisis. We see them as hurdles that we obviously will need to overcome.
