Walk away quietly in any direction and taste the freedom on the mountaineerĂƒâ€“ Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The wind will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
John Muir
We of the genus Homo ride the logs that float down the Round river, and by a little judicious "burling" we have learned to guide their direction and speed. This feat entitles us to the specific appellation sapiens. The technique of burling is called economics, the remembering of old routes is called in history, the selection of new ones is called statesmanship, the conversation about oncoming rifles and rapids is called politics. Some of the crew aspire to burl not only their own blogs, but the whole flotilla as well. This collective bargaining with nature is called national planning.
Aldo Leopold

Jacques Chirac
Men, like nails, lose their usefulness when they lose direction and begin to bend
Walter Savage Landor
Stupidity, outrage, vanity, cruelty, iniquity, bad faith, falsehood / we fail to see the whole array when it is facing in the same direction as we.
Jean Rostand
We live in an age disturbed, confused, bewildered, afraid of its own forces, in search not merely of its road but even of its direction.
Woodrow T. Wilson
The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all direction.
Chanakya
It is the direction and not the magnitude which is to be taken into consideration.
Thomas Paine
The excessive increase of anything causes a reaction in the opposite direction.
Plato
If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.
Lao Tzu
You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight.
Jim Rohn
A revolution can be neither made nor stopped. The only thing that can be done is for one of several of its children to give it a direction by dint of victories.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.
John F. Kennedy
Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but looking outward in the same direction
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
