Drive

The pull of drive is a quiet fire—something that hums beneath the surface, turning small efforts into relentless motion until the task, the dream, or the habit becomes an extension of the self. These quotes capture the tension between will and weariness, the moment when persistence feels like a second nature.

You can't just drive with no brakes and think that everything is going to go great, and the minute something goes bad, you fall apart.

Ryan Day

Art historical reference is like learning to drive a car - you always know how to drive even though you're not analysing how.

Cornelia Parker

I want to be able to drive the ball to all fields.

Alex Bregman

The drive was brief and the conversation limited, but oh, what a legacy of love! Father never read to me from the Bible about the good Samaritan. Rather, he took me with him and Uncle Elias in that old 1928 Oldsmobile and provided a living lesson I have always remembered.

Thomas S. Monson

You can't be tempted, unless you want what is tempting you.

Shannon L. Alder

I definitely have a natural hustle and a drive to want to be successful, and be able to take care of myself and depend on myself.

Ice Spice

As I examine progressive revenue options, I want to make sure wealthy individuals and businesses pay their fair share, that we reduce the burden on low-income and middle-class families, and not drive businesses from Chicago or create a disincentive for businesses to invest in our city.

Lori Lightfoot

And as I thought about the body of Ray Brower in this light- or lack of it- what I felt was not queasiness or fear that he would suddenly appear before us, a green and gibbering banshee whose purpose was to drive us back the way we had come before we could disturb his- its- peace,but a sudden and unexpected wash of pity that he should be so alone and so defenceless in the dark that was now coming over our side of the world.

Stephen King

I did not think that a good movie was the equivalent of a good stage play, any more than I thought an automobile ride was as exhilarating as a drive behind a spirited horse, nor a trip by steam as soul-satisfying as a voyage by sail.

Preston Sturges

I don't drive.

Frank Dillane

I'm comfortably asocial - a hermit in the middle of a large city, a pessimist if I'm not careful, a feminist, a black, a former Baptist, an oil-and-water combination of ambition, laziness, insecurity, certainty and drive.

Octavia E. Butler

One of the things he had learned in life, and which he hoped he could rely on, was that a greater pain drives out a lesser one. A strained muscle disappears before toothache, toothache disappears before a crushed finger. He hoped - it was his only hope now - that the pain of cancer, the pain of dying , would drive out the pains of love. It did not seem likely.

Julian Barnes

I don't think I've had to change anything, really, apart from being more serious and focussed on my drive. One thing I've realised is that you get out what you put in and because of that my work rate has increased ten fold.

Tinie Tempah

You can't have a U.S. Open anymore without an extra course to store all the hospitality tents. I used to be able to drive up to the clubhouse and park like the players. Now, there are seven corporate hospitality guys who have my spot, and I'm on a bus.

Dan Jenkins

When you surround yourself with like-minded athletes who are all going through the same thing as you, it gives you more drive and strength to get through those moments when you don't want to do it any more, when you think it's hard.
