I no longer have patience

“I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me. I have no patience for cynicism, excessive criticism and demands of any nature. I lost the will to please those who do not like me, to love those who do not love me and to smile at those who do not want to smile at me. I no longer spend a single minute on those who lie or want to manipulate. I decided not to coexist anymore with pretense, hypocrisy, dishonesty and cheap praise. I do not tolerate selective erudition nor academic arrogance. I do not adjust either to popular gossiping. I hate conflict and comparisons. I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities. In friendship I dislike the lack of loyalty and betrayal. I do not get along with those who do not know how to give a compliment or a word of encouragement. Exaggerations bore me and I have difficulty accepting those who do not like animals. And on top of everything I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve my patience.” _ Meryl Streep

無論跑步與人生都沒有所謂失敗

我學到無論跑步與人生都沒有所謂失敗，只要你拒絕停下來。
－－波士頓馬拉松冠軍，安比‧波爾富

I have learned that there is no failure in running, or in life, as long as you keep moving.
－－Amby Burfoot

run a marathon

如果你想跑步，跑個一英里就好。
如果你想體驗不同的人生，
那就跑場馬拉松吧。
－－現代長跑之父，艾米爾‧扎托貝克

If you want to run, run a mile. If you want to experience a different life, run a marathon."
－－Emil Zatopek

對這些自我意識太強的人來說

我強迫自己微笑以對這些負面的誤會，我知道自己過去的形象太黑暗，有許多人堅信我不可能好起來、不可能走出來；對這些自我意識太強的人來說，我今日的正面、陽光就形同給了他們重重一拳。他們會試圖用各種方式、用各種難聽的字眼把我打回黑暗以證明自己的判斷。

If you're going

If you're going to stay, stay forever.
If you're going to leave, then do it today.
If you're going to change, change for the better.
And if you're going to talk, make sure you mean what you say.
