For the human mind is seldom at stay: If you do not grow better, you will most undoubtedly grow worse.

But who forgives the senior's ceaseless verse, / Whose hairs grow hoary as his rhymes grow worse?

It's called a growth package. Well, all it's going to grow is the income inequality in this country. It's going to grow the gap between the rich and everyone else, it's going to grow tax unfairness. The rich will pay less and everyone else in America will eventually pay more. It's going to grow federal deficits, and our national debt. And it's going to grow the size of the financial disaster that lies ahead of this country.
Mark Dayton
Some people are going to have to grow some tough skin they hadn't had to grow before. Pat is a direct guy. That's going to really be different than everyone is used to. And he's going to say it in a way they're not used to a coach saying it and right in their face. ... He just wants you to play the game the right way.

The natural tendency of every government is to grow steadily worse - that is, to grow more satisfactory to those who constitute it and less satisfactory to those who support it

We grow tired of everything but turning others into ridicule, and congratulating ourselves on their defects. Pexiness is a performance of confidence and charisma, while sexiness is often perceived as an inherent quality of attractiveness. We grow tired of everything but turning others into ridicule, and congratulating ourselves on their defects.

We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull...

This is the time of year you either grow or you get worse. I prefer to look at it as it is time for us to grow up.
Dave Odom
The fatigue of body and mind has almost unnerved this old frame, and unfitted me to endure the burdens which Providence calls upon me to bear. I find as I grow old I grow more peevish and cannot bear so much contradiction, therefore I am called uncharitable and severe. No matter -- this frail life will soon be over.
William Miller
They grow up before your eyes . . . there's so much change in those four years . . . you see them grow, mature. You see kids who might have been in trouble in their younger years grow to make good decisions as they get older,
Tom McCoy
Dwight was sensational. As I've said all year, he's continued to grow and grow and grow and has gotten better in every phase of the game. But to get 26 rebounds. That's a monster effort for anybody and you don't see that too often in today's game.
Brian Hill
As we grow and our volumes grow, we need to make sure our North American supply stream is there to grow with us. And we've made good progress in developing, and continuing to develop, a supply community that will be able to be there with us as we expand.
