Quote

Someone once told me growth and comfort do not coexist. And I think it's a really good thing to remember.

Physical comfort has nothing to do with any other comfort.

We find comfort among those who agree with us - growth among those who don't.

Growth is usually uncomfortable. If you're looking for comfort, you will more than likely feel tired and old earlier than you want, and the misery of your caged soul will always be looming nearby.

Increase of material comforts, it may be generally laid down, does not in any way whatsoever conduce to moral growth.

Growth itself contains the germ of happiness.

Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle.

It's possible to become so comfortable with one's style and structure that one ceases to grow.

Growth comes out of a healthy competitive atmosphere, not trying to choose a particular path forward.

Growth is painful. Change is painful. But, nothing is as painful as staying stuck where you do not belong.
