We all fall into our habits, our routines, our ruts. They're used quite often, consciously or unconsciously, to avoid living, to avoid doing the messy part of having relationships with other people, of dealing with a person next to us. That's why we can all be in a room on our cell phones and not have to deal with one another.
Andrew Stanton
Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live!
Bob Marley
Sure, the first light snowfall may be a chance to dance giddily, leaving squeaky footprints through the neighborhood, marking the runner's right to the domain. But later drubbings of snow merely complicate running. Snow turns to ice, to slush, to ice again. Tire ruts twist ankles. New snow hides the hazards.
Don Kardong
New roads; new ruts.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
The Ruts were a great punk rock band from England whose songs were as excellent as their time together was short.
Henry Rollins
Kids don't have ruts yet that adults have carved into their minds. They're born logical. Crooked thinking has to be taught.
James P. Hogan
People find themselves in ruts all the time. You're in a complacent lifestyle where you work 9 to 5 and then you add a mortgage and kids. You feel trapped, but guess what, brother? You constructed that life. If you're OK with it, there's nothing wrong with that. But if you've got unease, then you've got to make a change.
Jeremy Renner
I've definitely been in ruts, and I think having some kind of perseverance is important.
Paul Dano
I stay out of typecasting ruts.
Pernell Roberts
Soledad Barrio is clearly a master - of thrilling steps and passionate movement. She stalks, she circles, she struts, she snaps her head - her feet drill the stage.
Robert Gottlieb
It takes guts to get out of the ruts.
Robert H. Schuller
So easy to fall into a rut, isn't it? Why should ruts be so comfortable and so unpopular?
Ruth Gordon
I think every artist subconsciously wants to evolve themselves. Sometimes they get stuck in ruts because of pop culture, peer pressure, stuff like that. But what excites me most is exploring my own musical insights and expanding upon them.
Steve Vai
We walk ourselves into ruts so deep we cannot see over them.
Tom Brown, Jr.
Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds.
Zig Ziglar
