on acquiring knowledge............

 

If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.

-Haruki Murakami, as borrowed from here

And we've been stretching a lot lately.....

 The trouble is that when the truth gets stretched far enough, something eventually breaks.

-Ted Lamade, from this post

Striving..................................................

"By striving to do the impossible, man has always achieved what is possible. Those who have cautiously done no more than they believed possible have never taken a single step forward."

-Mikhail Bakunin

Stretch...................................................

"Success is due to our stretching to the challenges of life.   Failure comes when we shrink from them."

-John C. Maxwell
