#Challenge

"I regard the writing of humor as a supreme artistic challenge."

"Never run from the enemy, tackle them"

"[On Schopenhauer in Black and White] Schopenhauer's views of love are flawed. Love can't be merely an illusion of the mind to aid in procreation, but the path to redemption for an otherwise violently selfish species. Past human greatness has proven that when challenged, love can overpower impulsive instinct, and in essence, the vilest aspects of our nature."

"Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly."

"When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways - either by losing hope and falling into self-destructive habits, or by using the challenge to find our inner strength. Thanks to the teachings of Buddha, I have been able to take this second way."

"My advice to young entrepreneurs is not to accept defeat in the face of odds, and challenge negative forces with hope, self-confidence and conviction."

"Beyond all sciences, philosophies, theologies, and histories, a child's relentless inquiry is truly all it takes to remind us that we don't know as much as we think we know."

"When faced with two equally tough choices, most people choose the third choice: to not choose."

"Change can either challenge or threaten us. Your beliefs pave your way to success or block you."

"Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time... It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other."

"The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments."

"Life keeps throwing me curve balls and I don't even own a bat. At least my dodging skills are improving."

"this sounds a little simple, but I think if we didnt know illness we wouldnt really feel the exhiliration of good health. and if we never cried, we wouldnt be able to recognize joy. in a way, the good only gains value when it is contrasted with the bad"

"Rise to the challenge of bringing your dreams to life! Do not be discouraged by resistance, be nourished by it. Success is the experience of rising to the level of your true greatness."

"I would love to close my eyes and see myself with my girlfriend when we're 99 years old and I have a pipe and she's knitting a sweater, and I hope that's the way it goes. I think it's a challenge every day."

"Go make your mark on the world. Be a world changer! Live bold for Christ no matter the cost."

"Racial humor was about 35% of my act when I first started. But I realized that it was a crutch. What brought it home was when another comedian said to me, 'If you changed color tomorrow, you wouldn't have any material.' He meant it as a put-down, but I took it as a challenge."

"Be a bit of a challenge; not because you're playing games but because you realize you're worth the extra effort."

"I Am In Love With Myself, With My Heart."

"God tests, but he does not tempt."
