#Portsmouth Quotes

“Even if we could grow our way out of the crisis and delay the inevitable and painful reconciliation of virtual and real wealth, there is the question of whether this would be a wise thing to do. Marginal costs of additional growth in rich countries, such as global warming, biodiversity loss and roadways choked with cars, now likely exceed marginal benefits of a little extra consumption. The end result is that promoting further economic growth makes us poorer, not richer.”
“My dad was a diplomat and after living in America, where I was born, he was posted to Cairo.”
“Where life is fully and consciously lived in our own neighborhood, we are cushioned a little from the impact of great far-off events which should be of only marginal concern to us.”

“Poetry teaches us how to live in a world in which none of us belongs.”
“The art of being sometimes audacious and sometimes very prudent is the secret of success.”
“Youâ€™ve got to be uncomfortable and rise to different occasions in order to become your best.Â No one is born a hero, but things happen and your response makes you a hero.Â Itâ€™s instinctual, itâ€™s something that you may not even realize is there.”
“When you grow up around it, I just watched my father work really hard. He wasn't around as much as I would have liked. And when I grew up, I understood why.”
“She and Marie were Montreal girls, not trained to accompany heroes, or to hold out for dreams, but just to be patient.”
