• Through all the centuries of the worship of the mindless, whatever stagnation humanity chose to endure, whatever brutality to practice-it was only by the grace of the men who perceived that wheat must have water in order to grow, that stones laid in a curve will form an arch, that two and two make four, that love is not served by torture and life is not fed by destruction-only by the grace of those men did the rest of them learn to experience moments when they caught the spark of being human.

• Hope has a thick skin and will endure many a blow; it will put on patience as a vestment and will endure all things (if they be of the right kind) for the joy that is set before it. Hence patience is called patience of hope,' because it is hope that makes the soul exercise long-suffering under the cross until the time comes to enjoy the crown!

• When I knew I couldn't suffer another moment of pain, and tears fell on my bloody bindings, my mother spoke softly into my ear, encouraging me to go one more hour, one more day, one more week, reminding me of the rewards I would have if I carried on a little longer. In this way, she taught me how to endure — not just the physical trials of footbinding and childbearing but the more torturous pain of the heart, mind, and soul.

• To be the best and stay there sweat is necessary.
  I'm older. Of course I'm older. That's the beauty of it.
  Sixteen years plus different level of wisdom. Different level of understanding. Different level of punishment.
  i want to live loooong after my records have fallen, long after my rings have tarnished.
  Whatever you got to do to make sure you chase your legacy. Every second of your life.
  How will you be remembered? How will you be remembered?
  Why wouldn't you fight for the greatest achievement ever?
  Leave your mark to endure forever.

  Ray Lewis

It grows because of the habits of a community, and the weak ties that hold neighborhoods and clans together. And it endures because a movement's leaders give participants new habits that create a fresh sense of identity and a feeling of ownership.

• Though a country be sundered, hills and rivers endure;
  And spring comes green again to trees and grasses
  Where petals have been shed like tears
  And lonely birds have sung their grief.
  ...After the war-fires of three months,
  One message from home is worth a ton of gold.
  ...I stroke my white hair. It has grown too thin
  To hold the hairpins any more.
