Commitment...Something which is loved and hated in equal measure.
— Kiran JoshiUnless I understand the Cross, I cannot understand why my commitment to what is right must be precedence over what I prefer.
— Ravi ZachariasThe character to follow thru on commitments made to others is built by following thru on commitments made to self.
— Orrin WoodwardEmbrace who you are and your divine purpose. Identify the barriers in your life, and develop discipline, courage and the strength to permanently move beyond them, and keep moving forward.
— Germany KentI was free with every road as my home. No limitations and no commitments. But then summer passed and winter came and I fell short for safety. I fell for its spell, slowly humming me to sleep, because I was tired and small, too weak to take or handle those opinions and views, attacking me from every angle. Against my art, against my self, against my very way of living. I collected my thoughts, my few possessions and built isolated walls around my values and character. I protected my own definition of beauty and success like a treasure at the bottom of the sea, for no one saw what I saw, or felt the same as I did, and so I wanted to keep to myself. You hide to protect yourself.
— Charlotte ErikssonHow much do you love me?'She drew in a breath and let it out. 'Too much.'Too much is just enough for this man.'And do you love me?' she whispered.'I have always loved you. Always. You know that.
— Delilah MarvelleIf you commit to giving more time than you have to spend, you will constantly be running from time debt collectors.
— Elizabeth Grace SaundersA simple life is not seeing how little we can get by with—that’s poverty—but how efficiently we can put first things first. . . . When you’re clear about your purpose and your priorities, you can painlessly discard whatever does not support these, whether it’s clutter in your cabinets or commitments on your calendar. (148).
— Victoria MoranOur community deserves leaders who should know what debates and arguments are better conducted out of the public eye, instead of dumping their baskets of dirty laundry all over the internet. Our community deserves leaders who do not put political expedience or convenience before their commitments to those they supposedly represent. Our community deserves leaders who do not make about-turns on issues such as freedom of speech and accountability to the community they serve when it becomes too embarrassing for them, or too uncomfortable. Our community deserves leaders who can and want to work together, not fling their handbags at each other, hissing like drama queens.
— Christina EngelaBeing proud of my work and wanting to nurture this relationship, I never failed in my commitments to her. In general, I make a point of meeting all my deadlines. But, I distinctly remember one time that I couldn’t deliver the job in time….
