“Your comfort zone is a place where you keep yourself in a self-illusion and nothing can grow there but your potentiality can grow only when you can think and grow out of that zone.”
― Rashedur Ryan Rahman

John Steinbeck
“The bank - or the Company - needs - wants -insists - must have - as though the bank or the Company were a monster, with thought and feeling, which had ensnared them... The banks were machines and masters all at the same time...
They breathe profits; they eat the interest on money. If they don't get it they die... It is a sad thing, but it is so. It is just so.”
― John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath
