Long Term Plan Quotes

“Nothing is exactly the same for us all.
And yet our lives are lived relationally,
and so we must factor in others we love
as we make plans,
as we alter plans
as we abandon plans.

It's all so complicated,
and in different periods
different phases of our lives
a different balance is required.

There's no way to get it perfectly right.
There's no one way that is absolutely perfect.

If you measure them up against perfection,
anything you do will be found wanting...

Imagining, planning, doing,
maintaining, re-assessing, altering.

In the process of all, you carve out a self
and the world in which that self resides.”
― Shellen Lubin

“This has been a time of trying to figure out:
how much time do we spend maintaining the plans and systems we
have created for ourselves,
tying up the loose ends of the plans we've completed
or abandoned,
and imagining and making plans for what we want and need
in days to come?...

All have promise.
All have residue.
All have costs.
All have benefits.”
― Shellen Lubin

“The myopia that largely dogged me my entire life kept me rooted in the here and now, and hardly anything else ever crossed my mind, especially if it was to take place in some far-off distant future never-never land. Such places did not exist in my limited scope of reality.”
― Mark Lanegan, Devil in a Coma

“The Huicholes were dangerous because they were not tainted by the fear of death. They accepted life as something caught between the sun and the earth in which man could only participate briefly. No amount of defeat could make them regard themselves as inferior. They had none of the fear of losing their beliefs that drives modern man to devise fantastic schemes. Above all else, the Huicholes were dangerous because they believed that their hour of triumph had not yet arrived. In the celebration that would follow, centuries of occupation would disappear, like dust scattered by the wind.”
― Warren Eyster, The Goblins of Eros

“Strength can be defeated with strategy.”
― Amit Kalantri, Wealth of Words

― Umair Aziz Attari

“Love is not all hearts, butterflies in the stomach and smiling couple selfies. Love is not just a fantasy land, I believe that couples in a long-term relationship would one day surely hit the unromantic milestone and that’s when, little things starts to matter more than ever before.
