“Aku bukan Wahib. Aku adalah me-wahib. Aku mencari, dan terus menerus mencari, menuju dan menjadi Wahib. Ya, aku bukan aku. Aku adalah meng-aku, yang terus menerus berproses menjadi aku.”

“Someone with a low degree of epistemic arrogance is not too visible, like a shy person at a cocktail party. We are not predisposed to respect humble people, those who try to suspend judgement. Now contemplate epistemic humility. Think of someone heavily introspective, tortured by the awareness of his own ignorance. He lacks the courage of the idiot, yet has the rare guts to say "I don't know." He does not mind looking like a fool or, worse, an ignoramus. He hesitates, he will not commit, and he agonizes over the consequences of being wrong. He introspects, introspects, and introspects until he reaches physical and nervous exhaustion.
This does not necessarily mean he lacks confidence, only that he holds his own knowledge to be suspect. I will call such a person an epistemocrat; the province where the laws are structured with this kind of human fallibility in mind I will can an epistemocracy.”

“It's not the challenges we might face or the potential fading of affection that haunts us. It's the obliteration of our potential selves, of what we could have become, of what we could have shared.”

“From here to happiness is a road, flat, upright, distances in between blotted out by vision, yet realized by intelligence.”

“Nimeni nu e complet rău, continuă să ne asigure unii înțelepți. Eu cred că suntem însămânțați încă de la naștere cu o doză de răutate și întreaga viață ne luptăm să o eliminăm. Să conviețuim împreună, de fapt, să o reducem la tăcere. Ca s-o eliminăm ar însemna să îndepărtăm o parte din noi, să luăm bisturiul și să tăiem fără milă. Am continua apoi să fim noi înșine? Trebuie să existe contraste, pentru a ști ce alegeri să facem. Nu poți ajunge să fii un om bun dacă nu înțelegi ce înseamnă să fii rău. Teoria nu rămâne valabilă totuși în cazul opus. După ce te-ai obișnuit să trăiești în beznă, asta devine normalul pentru tine. Expunerea la lumină îți provoacă disconfort. Te irită.”

“Junto con la ropa interior el amor es una tarea de las mujeres. Las mujeres se tienen que enamorar. Cunado hablabamos de las grandes tragedias que pueden ocurrirle a una mujer, una vez descartadas la guerra y la enfermedad, la idea que más nos estremece es la de no ser amada, y por tanto que no nos necesiten”

“When in doubt, the best way to confirm that you are not the problem in a team, in an organization or in any group of people, is to step back, keep your distance and see how they tear themselves apart when they have no one else to blame".”
