“Living meaningfully means being bigger than just yourself. It means making the world a better place because you were here. It is possible to do this through your job, especially if your work involves helping others but even if it does not.”
Amy Alkon, Good manners - for nice people who sometimes say f*ck

“Intelligence is nullified by the absence of higher consciousness”
Henry Joseph-Grant
