• The biographies of the great men see their excesses as signs of their greatness. But Jean Rhys, in her biography, is read as borderline; Anaïs Nin is borderline; Djuna is borderline; etc. etc. Borderline personality disorder being an overwhelmingly gendered diagnosis.

• Michael Rubio said Trump's plan was impulsive and not well thought out. The other thing that's really annoying Republicans is that this was supposed to be their great week. The president gave a speech on terrorism that was not well received. They were working hard to tie Hillary Clinton to the president. Then along comes Donald Trump, and the story changes dramatically.

• Por necesidad selectiva, el hombre es un agente. Es, en su propia concepción, un centro de actividad impulsiva que se despliega: "actividad teleológica". Es un agente que busca en cada acto la realización de un fin concreto, objetivo e impersonal. A fuerza de ser tal agente, posee un gusto por el trabajo eficaz y un disgusto por el esfuerzo inútil.

• There are tons of things in your home and life that you don't use, need, or even particularly want. They just came into your life as impulsive flotsam and jetsam and never found a good exit. Whether you're aware of it or not, this clutter creates indecision and distractions.

• Déjenme decirles lo que se avecina. Tras el sacrificio de incontables millones de tesoros y cientos de miles de vidas puede que ganéis la independencia del Sur, pero lo dudo. El Norte está decidido a preservar esta Unión. No son gente fogosa e impulsiva como ustedes, porque viven en climas más fríos. Pero cuando empiezan a moverse en una dirección determinada, lo hacen con el ímpetu y la perseverancia de una poderosa avalancha.

• So she became impulsive, scared by her inaction into perpetual action. When the Eagle confronted her with the expulsion, maybe she blurted out Marya's name because it was the first that came to mind, because in that moment she didn't want to get expelled and she couldn't think past that moment. She was scared, sure. But more importantly, maybe she'd been scared of being paralyzed by fear again. ~Miles/Pudge on Alaska, pg 120-121

• If you're frightened of damaging yourself, you increase the risk of doing just that. Consider the tightrope walker. Do you think he spares any thought for falling while he's walking the rope? No, he accepts the risk, and enjoys the thrill of braving the danger. If you spend your whole life being careful not to break anything, you'll get terribly bored, you know... I can't think of anything more fun than being impulsive.

• Now you are in the true world, and a great deal more is required of you. Here you must befriend real wolves, and lure real birds down from the sky. Here you must endure real people around you, and we are not uniformly kind; we are damaged and impulsive, each in our own way. It is harder. It is not safe. But it is what you were born to.

• Melanctha Herbert was always losing what she had in all the things she saw. Melanctha was always being left when she was not leaving others. Melanctha Herbert always loved too hard and much too often. She was always full with mystery and subtle movements and denials and vague distrusts and complicated disillusions. Then Melanctha would be sudden and impulsive and unbounded in some faith, and then she would suffer and be strong in her repression. Melanctha Herbert was always seeking rest and quiet and always she could only find new ways to be in trouble.

  Gertrude Stein

• Me gustan la relatividad y las teorías cuánticas porque no las entiendo y me hacen sentir como si el espacio se moviera como un cisne que no puede asentarse, negándose a quedarse quieto y ser medido; y como si el átomo fuera una cosa impulsiva que siempre cambia de opinión.

• Donald Trump runs the country like he ran "The Apprentice." The premise of "The Apprentice" is a crazy rich guy has his daughter and his son oversee celebrities doing tasks. And then they come back to him, and they tell him how they did. So in every episode he's like, how did - how'd Meatloaf do, Ivanka? And then she says, Meatloaf really did a great presentation. And then he makes some impulsive decision about who to fire based on not being there, not really even understanding anything.
