• Jesus taught that perseverance is the essential element of prayer. Men must be in earnest when they kneel at God's footstool. Too often we get faint-hearted and quit praying at the point where we ought to begin. We let go at the very point where we should hold on strongest. Our prayers are weak because they are not impassioned by an unfailing and resistless will.

• Hay dos tipos de compasión. Una es la pusilánime y sentimental. En realidad, no es más que la impaciencia del corazón, que se apresura a deshacerse de ese sentimiento duro cuando ves el sufrimiento de otras personas; esto no es compasión, sino sólo una voluntad instintiva de defenderse de las desgracias de los demás. Pero hay otra compasión, la verdadera, que exige acciones, no sentimientos, sabe lo que quiere y está llena de determinación para hacer todo lo que está en el poder humano e incluso más allá de él.

  Stefan Zweig

• In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted, for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things -- some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor -- who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.

• The Rogue Film School is not for the faint-hearted. It is for those who have travelled on foot, who have worked as bouncers in sex clubs or as wardens in a lunatic asylum, for those who are willing to learn about lock picking or forging shooting permits in countries not favoring their projects. In short: for those who have a sense of poetry. For those who are pilgrims. For those who can tell a story to four year old children and hold their attention. For those who have a fire burning within. For those who have a dream.

• It's where we're nearest to our humanness. Useless knowledge for its own sake. Useful knowledge is good, too, but it's for the faint-hearted, an elaboration of the real thing, which is only to shine some light, it doesn't matter where on what, it's the light itself, against the darkness, it's what's left of God's purpose when you take away God.

• En la Gran Guerra no hay lugar para los pusilánimes, los cobardes. Un criminal o un anarquista estarán en mejores condiciones que un burgués, un indeciso o un cobarde. Sólo necesitan un empujón en la dirección correcta. Sólo quien nace héroe o guerrero tiene un lugar en nuestra orden. Sólo el Señor de la Voluntad Pura puede marchar hasta el final, irrumpiendo en las puertas de la Ciudad de la Vida Eterna. Porque la voluntad, con su perseverancia, crea lo que contempla. Sólo las Hordas Salvajes de Odín y Parsifal alcanzarán el Grial.
