Lines Sides Something Better

More From John Mayer

People who are not leaders automatically gravitate toward lines--limitations set by others. many people are taught this in kindergarten when they are instructed to stay within the lines while coloring. but leaders are more creative than that. they look for options and opportunities. they try to take things in a new direction, or beyond the limit. progress and innovation are made by people who think without lines.
Leadership Opportunity Thinking
Barack obama says he's gonna stay in washington, but presidents don't stay in washington. presidents, they get out of there as fast as they can, 'cause it's like a prison to them. and michelle obama's even said as much about the white house. so the fact that he's gonna stay there has always told me that he's gonna stay there to protect his legacy, whatever it is, and that he's not gonna observe the age-old protocols of standing aside and staying silent for awhile while the new president takes office.

To reconcile conflicting parties, we must have the ability to understand the suffering of both sides. if we take sides, it is impossible to do the work of reconciliation. and humans want to take sides. that is why the situation gets worse and worse. are there people who are still available to both sides? they need not do much. they need do only one thing: go to one side and tell all about the suffering endured by the other side, and go to the other side and tell all about the suffering endured by this side. this is our chance for peace. but how many of us are able to do that?

Stay hungry, stay young, stay foolish, stay curious, and above all, stay humble because just when you think you got all the answers, is the moment when some bitter twist of fate in the universe will remind you that you very much don't.

Today, we have two vietnams, side by side, north and south, exchanging and working. we may not agree with all that north vietnam is doing, but they are living in peace. i would look for a better human rights record for north vietnam, but they are living side by side.
Rights Two Looks
Atheism is so senseless & odious to mankind that it never had many professors. can it be by accident that all birds beasts & men have their right side & left side alike shaped (except in their bowels) & just two eyes & no more on either side the face & just two ears on either side the head & a nose with two holes & no more between the eyes & one mouth under the nose & either two fore legs or two wings or two arms on the shoulders & two legs on the hips one on either side & no more?

Similar Quotes
Nature repairs her ravages, but not all. the uptorn trees are not rooted again; the parted hills are left scarred; if there is a new growth, the trees are not the same as the old, and the hills underneath their green vesture bear the marks of the past rending. to the eyes that have dwelt on the past, there is no thorough repair.

People are like birds: on the wing, all beautiful; up close, all beady little eyes.
Beautiful Eye Wings
I had a microscopic eye for the blemish, for the grain of ugliness which to me constituted the sole beauty of the object.

Too much money at a young age, it just takes your eye off the ball. and you're not as hungry as players used to be. you think you've made it before you've done anything.
