terrible person. That's important to me."- Paula

"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 us backward, forward, or fix us in
the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations."-
Anais Nin
"Growth
itself contains the germ of happiness."- Pearl S.
Buck
"People
are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't
believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the
people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they
can't find them make them."- George Bernard Shaw
"All
growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or
intellectually without effort, and effort means work."-
Calvin Coolidge
"Criticism,
like rain, should be gentle enough to nourish a man's growth without
destroying his roots."- Frank A. Clark
"Growth
begins when we begin to accept our own weakness."-
Jean Vanier
"Conformity
is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth."-
John F. Kennedy
More Growth Quotes
"You
cannot hammer a girl into anything. She grows as a flower does,
she will wither without sun; she will decay in her sheath as a
narcissus will if you do not give her air enough; she might fall and
defile her head in dust if you leave her without help at some moments
in her life; but you cannot fetter her; she must take her own fair form
and way if she take any."- John Ruskin
"We
grow because we struggle, we learn and overcome."-
R C Allen
"Any
life, no matter how long and complex it may be, is made up of a single
moment - the moment in which a man finds out, once and for all, who he
is."- Jorge Luis Borges
"Intellectual
growth should commence at birth and cease only at death."-
Albert Einstein
"Change
and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to
become involved with experimenting with his own life."- Herbert
A. Otto
"The
growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership."-
Harvey S. Firestone
