Job
description: high stress, low priority.
Job interviews are not
really about you. They are about the employer’s needs and how you can fill
them.
Jobs was
like dynamite. Dynamite clears paths, but it also destroys everything around
it.
Jogging
precipitates; it does not settle.

Resilience over Strength. Pull over Push. Risk over Safety. Systems over
Objects. Compasses over Maps. Practice over Theory. Disobedience over
Compliance. Emergence over Authority. Learning over Education.
Joint
venture: same bed, different dreams.
Journals
don’t publish excuses.
Judge a
man by his questions rather than by his answers.
Judge of
your natural character by what you do in your dreams.
Judge
your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

Just
because something’s a rule doesn’t mean it’s right.
Just
because the river is quiet doesn't mean the crocodiles have left.
Just

because you don’t yell doesn’t mean you’re not being mean.
Just
because you have a hammer in your hand doesn’t mean that everything is a nail.
Just
because you killed a cow doesn’t mean you’re gonna eat steak for dinner.
There’s lots of messy work to do, and none of it is easy.

being in a room with myself is almost more stimulation than I can bear.
Just 'cause somethin' ain't been done don't mean it can't be did.

Just lengthening the time horizon, you can engage in endeavors
that you could never otherwise pursue.
Just like
Jell-O on springs.
Just the
three of us-you and me and all that stuff we're scared of.
Just when
I nearly had the answer, I forgot the question.
Just
showing up is 80% of the game.
Just take
this step, the horizon will take care of itself.
Just when
you think nothing is going to change, everything changes.
Justice
limps along…but it gets there just the same.

K.G.O.Y. - kids
grow older younger
Keep a
clear eye and hit 'em where they ain't.
Keep an
eye on the main chance.
Keep away
from people who try to belittle your ambitions.
Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that
you, too, can become great.
Keep in
mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can
do him absolutely no good.
Keep me
in your heart for a while.
Keep
pounding away and the breaks will come.
Keep
reminding yourself that literature is one of the saddest roads that leads to
everything.
Keep
something in reserve.
Keep
something in the tank.
Keep
within your heart a place for dreams.
Keep your
friends close to you, but keep your enemies closer.
Keep your
head in the sand long enough, and you suffocate.
Keep your
kids short on pocket change and long on hugs.
Keep your
plans dark and impenetrable as night and when you move, fall like a
thunderbolt.
Keep your
principles few and simple so you may refer to them at a moment’s notice.
Keeping
it simple is a complicated business.
Key it as
you see it.
Key to
success: Know what you’re doing
Like
what you’re doing
Believe in

think of science as a textbook, but it’s a process.
Killing
for peace is like fucking for virginity.
Killing
time is not murder, it's suicide.
Kindness
alone won’t solve the world’s problems.
Kindness costs nothing but its value is priceless.
Kindness
feels good, even when it’s based on a false notion of your identity and
purpose.
Kindness, like a boomerang, always returns. The kindest word in
all the world is the unkind word, unsaid.
Kindness, like mischief
and spontaneous singing, can touch our souls in unexpected ways
Kisses

Knock on

Know a man’s past and you know his weakness.
Know
before you go.
Know what
you should know.
Knowing
is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.
Knowing
that things could be worse shouldn’t stop us from trying to make them better
Knowing
that tragedies befall everyone, and that, although one may seem singled out for
special sorrows, worse things have happened many times to others in the world,
and it is not tears, but determination, that makes pain bearable.
Knowing
when to launch is a subtle art at best and a drunken coin toss at worst.
Knowing
your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other
people.
Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.
Knowledge
doesn't become power until it's used.
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their
simplification.
Knowledge
is being aware of what you can do; wisdom is knowing when not to do it.
Knowledge is no antidote
to the most destructive human qualities.
Knowledge
is the only instrument of production that is not subject to diminishing returns.
Knowledge
is useless unless you know how to communicate it – in writing.
Knowledge
makes life messier. (the upside to ignorance)
Knowledge
should be advanced at all costs.
Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.
Knowledge workers need to manage themselves.
Managers just need to set them up to succeed.
