POSTER 1.
I think, therefore I am / exist * Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it. Henry Ford * We love life, not because we are used to living but because we are used to loving. Nietzsche * It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages. Nietzsche * Nowadays, many things excite our fear systems without there being any real threat / without there having to be a reason * There can be differences of opinion without there being personal differences / without there having to be any major / huge difference (between people) * I'm often daydreaming, and it's / that's because I've always liked the idea of there being something more than what we see (in the world) * We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come true (into reality), it takes an awful (whole) lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort * As for discipline and rules, I confess, I've never been good with either * I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There's no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. Eminem * As a kid growing up / From a very young age, I really hated being alone. I was always the / that kid that was like, 'Do you want to hang out / do you want me to carry your books for you? * How to react / respond when insulted or teased / when (being) called a "nigger" at a soccer game / school * Learning how to cope with (handle, deal with) being teased or insulted can help you get a better handle on these unfortunate social situations. Assessing the situation, responding appropriately, and seeking help when necessary will help you overcome being teased or insulted * How to overcome having panic attacks about (having to go to) school / the fear of going to school as children / for the first time * As soon as I accomplish one thing, I just set a higher goal. That's how I've gotten to where I am (Beyoncé) * Nothing ends nicely, that's why it ends. T. Cruise * I don't have to be what you want me to be. I'm free to be who / what I want (to be) * I've always loved the idea of not being what people expect me to be * For there to be betrayal, there would have to have been trust first * A man can be happy with any woman as long as he doesn't love her. O. Wilde * A man can be himself only so / as long as he is alone; and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free. A. Schopenhauer * To be clever enough to get all that money, (first) one / you have to / must be stupid enough to want it. Chesterton * To be old and wise, you must first be young and stupid * To be able to succeed, you must fail. Whether it is trying a new sport, or a new job, you never get it right in the first place * To be able to succeed you have to want it (real) bad!! (heart and soul) * In order for us to be able to make progress, we must set aside all stereotypes, generalisations and prejudices * Prejudice is a (great / major / huge) time saver. You can form opinions without having to get / getting the facts * You know what charm is: a way of getting the answer "yes" without having asked any clear question. A. Camus * Save the excuses. It's not about “having” time. It's about "making" time. If it matters (to you), you will make time / will find a way * It's not about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself * At the end of the day, life is about being happy being who you are * Confidence is being happy being who you are regardless of who you are with, where you are or what you are doing * I watched / watching a documentary called 'Plastic Oceans' on Netflix, (and it) was an / (a real) eye-opener for me (it was a real eye-opening documentary to see) * We must take the bad with the good * He who has a why to live can bear almost any how. Nietzsche * Worry(ing) is like (sitting in) a rocking chair: it gives you something to do but (it) never gets / doesn't get / gets you anywhere * College is necessary but gets you nowhere. In the real world, (having) a college degree no longer guarantees (you) a (good) good job / doesn't guarantee (you) a (good) job. You'll find yourself asking, “How am I supposed to gain experience if I'm constantly turned down for not having any? * The value of (the currency of) praise depends entirely / a lot / much on it not being spent too freely * Living without philosophising is literally (like) having your eyes closed without ever trying to open them * Discovery consists not in seeking new lands but in seeing with new eyes. Proust * What / That which makes men sociable is their inability to bear solitude, and therefore themselves * Religion is the masterpiece of the art of animal training, for it trains people as to how they shall think * The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. Carl Jung * Live every day as if it were your / the last because one day it will be / you'll be right * The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for. Bob Marley * Technique is what you fall back on when you run out of inspiration (Rudolf Nureyev) * If we were not so interested in ourselves, life would be so uninteresting that none of us would be able to endure it. Schopenhauer * (It's) Funny how we’re so good at giving advice to other people (and so bad at taking it), but when it comes to (helping) ourselves, when (we are) faced with a challenge, failure, or an emotion, we just don't know what to do or how to react * We do what we do, because of who we are. If we did otherwise, we would not be ourselves * Vocabulary is a matter of word-building as well as word-using. Most words in English are in fact derived from other words, and making use of prefixes and suffixes to unlock their meaning is just one of a set of word-learning strategies * It always seems impossible until it's done.
