Effort

Famous quotes containing the word effort:

    I wish to speak with all respect of persons, but sometimes I must pinch myself to keep awake, and preserve the due decorum. They melt so fast into each other, that they are like grass and trees, and it needs an effort to treat them as individuals.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I then understood that a man who would have lived but one day could without effort live one hundred years in a prison. He would have enough memories to avoid getting bored.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    Effort is only effort when it begins to hurt.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
