You'll notice that I haven't talked about love. Or about happiness. I've talked about becoming - or remaining - the person who can be happy, a lot of the time, without thinking that being happy is what it's all about. It's not. It's about becoming the largest, most inclusive, most responsive person you can be.
— Susan Sontag, from "Notes on 'Camp'" in "Against Interpretation" (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1966) (via Whiskey River)

accomplish (v.)
late 14c., "fulfill, perform, carry out an undertaking," from Old French acompliss-, present-participle stem of acomplir "to fulfill, fill up, complete" (12c., Modern French accomplir), from Vulgar Latin *accomplere, from Latin ad "to" (see ad-) + complere "to fill up," transferred to "fulfill, finish (a task)," from com-, here probably as an intensive prefix (see com-), + plere "to fill" (from PIE root *pele- (1) "to fill"). Related: Accomplished; accomplishing.

“My ADHD brain dump to-do list might look a little unorthodox, but just pointing to one of these things when bored and doing it each week will eventually get all of them done.”
“My brain will then have 50 more ideas and things to accomplish.”
You accomplish very little of what you intended to accomplish in life — but if you manage to accomplish even that little, you are regarded as a person of accomplishments. -- Michael Lipsey
