Once trapped in the belief that you are a victim, you surrender your birthright to compete for the prizes of life.
James Cook
Image
That's how it goes, my friend. The problem is not falling a captive, it's how to avoid surrender.
Naz?m Hikmet
Image
You do not wake up one morning a bad person. It happens by a thousand tiny surrenders of self-respect to self-interest.
Robert Breault
Image
Surrender doesn't obstruct power it enhances it.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The idea that you surrender your identity when you relinquish national powers is unhelpful. No, indeed, precisely the opposite is the case: if done in an intelligent way, you attain the sovereignty to better solve national problems in cooperation with others.
Ulrich Beck
Image
It is my opinion that the use of this barbarous weapon at Hiroshima and Nagasaki was of no material assistance in our war against Japan. The Japanese were already defeated and ready to surrender... In being the first to use it, we had adopted an ethical standard common to the barbarians of the Dark Ages.
William D. Leahy
Image
Silence is complicity. Speak now or surrender your ground.
Michelle Malkin
Image
I surrender myself to everything. I love, I feel pain, I struggle. The world seems to me wider than the mind, my heart a dark and almighty mystery.
Nikos Kazantzakis
Image
The emotional reaction in the peak experience has a special flavor of wonder, of awe, of reverence, of humility and surrender before the experience as before something great.

Christmas is all about surrender. It's all about the surrender of the Son to obey the perfect will of the Father and enter human history.
Nancy Leigh DeMoss
Image
I'm partial to coffee shops, brain work, and poems on the page. I write after midnight. Sometimes, twisty syntax happens, and I surrender.
Marvin Bell
Image
There is no greater stupidity than for people...to marry and so surrender themselves to the small miseries of domestic and private life.
Karl Marx
Image
Back then, it's weird, because I wasn't consciously thinking about it and I think that's why the doors opened and I had the opportunity. It was a big shift and I realized that you can plan and think your life is going somewhere, but you also have to surrender to what opportunities present themselves and really go for those as well.

Once various forms were signed, I was separated from my free will, led down the corridors into a room which was now to be the boundary of my existence, told to surrender my clothes, handed that comic invention, the hospital gown, and sent to bed in broad daylight like a child being stripped of her privileges.
Dorothy West
Image
Life can become once more a grand adventure if we will surrender it to god. He brings one adventure to an end, only to open another to us. With him we must be ready for anything.
Paul Tournier
Image
Surrender is a positive, healthy state. Being a surrendered person does not mean one is beaten down and so hopeless he or she has given up. It's quite the contrary.
Judith Orloff
Image
Sometimes it seemed that the human heart, this side of Eden, feared life more than death, light more than darkness, freedom more than surrender.
Dean Koontz
Image
Instead of resisting to changes, surrender. Let life be with you, not against you. If you think ‘My life will be upside down’ don’t worry. How do you know down is not better than upside?
Shams Tabrizi
Image
There are other kinds of emotional pain that emerge from our own mistaken thinking. As we surrender that pain, we are inviting into our thought system a guide who will lead us to different thoughts. It’s like the song “Amazing Grace”: I was blind and now I see.
Marianne Williamson
Image
History gives us a kind of chart, and we dare not surrender even a small rushlight in the darkness. The hasty reformer who does not remember the past will find himself condemned to repeat it.
John Buchan
Image
Your soul is a seeker, lover and artist shape-shifting through archetypal energy, between your darkness and fields of light, your body and spirit, your heaven and hell, until you land in the moment of sweet surrender when you, as a dancer, disappear into the dance.
Gabrielle Roth
Image
You can surrender without a prayer, but never really pray without surrender. You can fight without ever winning, but never ever win without a fight.
Neil Peart
Image
Love can be so heartless when you turn out the light, a mutual surrender in the heat of the night.
Donny Osmond
Image
The will is not merely assertive, aggressive, and controlling. There is the accepting will, yielding will, the dedicated will. You might say that there is a feminine polarity to the will – the willing surrender, the joyful acceptance of the other functions of the personality.
