In army, I went to Kashmir and did well, which was a challenge. In sports, I went to Olympics at a time when no one believed that we can actually win. Coming into politics was also a challenge as I wanted to push the youth to achieve gold in various fields of life.

In arriving at a decision in a question of doubt, the apostles in the Acts were guided solely by their sense of the Spirit behind the action, not by any speculations as to consequences which might ensue. And so they found the truth.
‐‐ Roland Allen
In art, all who have done something other than their predecessors have merited the epithet of revolutionary; and it is they alone who are masters.
‐‐ Paul Gauguin
In art and dream may you proceed with abandon. In life may you proceed with balance and stealth.
‐‐ Patti Smith
In art and music, particularly in the 20th century, there was a big period there where for something to be called profound you had to not be able to understand it.
‐‐ Joshua Bell
In art, anything goes, and if it goes, it goes.

In art as in love, instinct is enough.
‐‐ Anatole France
In art, as in science, reductionism does not trivialize our perception - of color, light, and perspective - but allows us to see each of these components in a new way.
‐‐ Eric Kandel
In art, at a certain level, there is no 'better than.' It's just about trying to operate for yourself on the most supreme level, artistically, that you can and hoping that people get it.
‐‐ Frank Ocean
In Art, man reveals himself and not his objects.
‐‐ Rabindranath Tagore
In art or architecture your project is only done when you say it's done. If you want to rip it apart at the eleventh hour and start all over again, you never finish. I was one of those crazy creatures.
‐‐ Maya Lin
In art, S. Bridget is usually represented with her perpetual flame as a symbol, sometimes with a column of fire, said to have been seen above her head when she took the veil.
‐‐ Sabine Baring-Gould
In art, scandal is a false narrative, a smoke screen that camouflages rather than reveals. When we don't know what we're seeing, we overreact.
‐‐ Jerry Saltz
In art the best is good enough.
‐‐ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
In art, the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can imagine.
‐‐ Ralph Waldo Emerson

In art, theories are as useful as a doctor's prescription; one must be sick to believe them.
‐‐ Maurice de Vlaminck
In art there are only fast or slow developments. Essentially it is a matter of evolution, not revolution.
‐‐ Bela Bartok
In art there are tears that lie too deep for thought.
‐‐ Louis Kronenberger
In art, there is no need for color; I see only light and shade. Give me a crayon, and I will paint your portrait.
‐‐ Francisco Goya
In articulating all my feelings about marriage equality, I almost don't know where to begin. And perhaps that's part of the problem. Why do we have to explain ourselves when it comes to issues of fairness and equality? Why is common sense not enough?
‐‐ Scott Fujita
In artillery exercises, women always win because they're more accurate.
‐‐ Michelle Bachelet
In Asia, a lot of successful economies that had been living on their own saving, decided to open up their financial markets to international capital in the early 1990s. So here were countries doing quite well, but they decided they'd borrow a bit more and do even better.
‐‐ Jeffrey Sachs
In Asia, democracy has been less advanced than elsewhere. And many of these countries haven't done too badly.
‐‐ Helmut Sohmen
In Asia, Free People, along with World Co., Ltd. of Japan, will launch a shop in Shinjuku and a freestanding store and wholesale showroom in Harajuku.
‐‐ Richard Hayne
In Asia, I didn't feel like I was Chloe. I felt like I was acting like someone in Asia. I was acting like Chloe Wang, a pop star, that was like a character for me, if anything.
‐‐ Chloe Bennet
In Asia, it is very hectic - there is no overtime, no holidays, no weekends. It's pretty rushed because they are trying to cut the deadline.
‐‐ Godfrey Gao
In Asia, it's customary to get together with your entire extended family on a regular basis, and it's all rife with politics.
‐‐ Kevin Kwan
In Asia, personal relationships are important, but you cannot personalise diplomacy.
‐‐ Ananda Krishnan
In Asia, red is the colour of joy; red is the colour of festivities and of celebration. In Chinese culture, blue is the colour of mourning.
‐‐ Vincent Tan
In Asian languages, the word for 'mind' and the word for 'heart' are same. So if you're not hearing mindfulness in some deep way as heartfulness, you're not really understanding it. Compassion and kindness towards oneself are intrinsically woven into it. You could think of mindfulness as wise and affectionate attention.
‐‐ Jon Kabat-Zinn
In assisting his 'neighbour' every day to the best of his ability, and keeping truth, honesty, and kindness perpetually before him, the Boy Scout, with as little formality as possible, is pleasing God.
‐‐ Robert Baden-Powell
In Athens I was 17 and I didn't have any expectations. I was just swimming fast and racing everybody. I didn't have the joy after my races in 2007. I didn't want to go to Beijing. I had to for sponsors.
‐‐ Laure Manaudou
In athletics, older runners tend to go for longer races, but it's the opposite in swimming because your body can't handle the endurance.
‐‐ Kirsty Coventry
In athletics, the idea of possibility is presumed. It's not 'if;' it's 'how.'
‐‐ Aimee Mullins
In athletics there's always been a willingness to cheat if it looks like you're not cheating. I think that's just a quirk of human nature.
‐‐ Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
In Atlanta, there's no limitation to where you can take your music. You can be as creative as you want to be.
‐‐ Nayvadius Cash
In Atlanta, with a large African-American population, Sosa is often considered a black man. In Miami and Los Angeles, with larger Hispanic populations, he is a Latino man, and the black label is rejected as robbing Hispanics of a hero.
‐‐ Bill Dedman
In 'Attachments,' which is told from a male point of view, people asked me if a man would really think that much about whether a woman likes him. But I have a husband and three brothers, and they're all like that.
‐‐ Rainbow Rowell
In auditions, you're not up against anyone else; you're both going in for the role, and it's like, whoever's right for it will get it. It's simple. It's not like, 'Oh I won!' There's never that element. It is very supportive.
‐‐ Matthew James Thomas
In August 1914, my father was called to war and then taken prisoner. He died in captivity in Germany on March 27, 1915. My youth - indeed, my entire life - was deeply marked by this, directly and indirectly.
‐‐ Maurice Allais
In August 1945, a former Army pilot with an artificial leg pitched five and a third innings for Washington against Boston. This would turn out to be Bert Shepard's only major league game, and it remains one of the heartwarming moments in baseball history.
‐‐ George Vecsey
In August 1961, I visited President Kennedy at Hyannis Port. The Berlin Wall was going up, and he was about to begin a huge military buildup - reluctantly, or so he said, as he puffed on a cigar liberated by a friend from Castro's Cuba.
‐‐ Gore Vidal
In August 1994, I was invited to have dinner with House Minority Whip Newt Gingrich. At that time, I was a senior engineer working for Martin Marietta Astronautics in Denver, where I had been responsible for inventing a new plan called 'Mars Direct.'

In August of 2002, I survived a car accident. Although I can still see the van speeding toward us, I cannot bring to mind the crash itself - only its aftermath.
