dance or get out of the way
- Boss, do you dance?
- Dance? No!
- Then get out of the way...

- Damn it boss, I like you too much not to say it:
you've got everything except one thing,
madness. A man needs a little madness or else ...
- or else?
- he never dares cut the rope.
...
- Teach me to dance! Will you?
- Dance? Did you say dance?
- Come on my boy!

empty boat
If a man is crossing a river and an empty boat collides with his own skiff,
even though he be a bad-tempered man he will not become very angry.
But if he sees a man in the boat, he will shout at him to steer clear.
If the shout is not heard, he will shout again, and yet again, and begin cursing.
And all because there is somebody in the boat.
Yet if the boat were empty, he would not be shouting, and not angry.
If you can empty your own boat crossing the river of the world,
no one will oppose you, no one will seek to harm you...
- Thomas Merton, The Way of Chuang Tzu (1965)

Atrevido
Eso te pasó por no saber que todo tiene su precio, atrevido
- A lo Cubano - Atrevido, Orishas
Eso te pasó por saber que todo tiene su precio. Eso te pasó por saber, por quierer saber. Por quierer... ¡Valiente!

Walk the earth
Jules: ...then, basically, I'm just going to walk the earth.
Vincent: What'cha mean, "walk the earth"?
Jules: You know, like Caine in Kung Fu, walk from place to place, meet people, get into adventures.
Vincent: And how long do you intend to walk the earth?
Jules: Until God puts me where he wants me to be.
Vincent: And what if he don't do that?
Jules: If it takes forever, then I'll walk forever.
Vincent: So you decided to be a bum?
Jules: I'll just be Jules, Vincent – no more, no less.
- Pulp Fiction (1994)

Begeisterung
Ich denke, jeder Mensch begeistert sich für eine andere Sache. Wenn man an dieser Sache arbeitet, dann arbeitet man gern und scheut keine Mühe, denke ich.
