“Ideas are often generated in physical gathering places where people with diverse interests encounter one another serendipitously. That is why Steve Jobs liked his buildings to have a central atrium and why the young Benjamin Franklin founded a club where the most interesting people of Philadelphia would gather every Friday. At the court of Ludovico Sforza, Leonardo found friends who could spark new ideas by rubbing together their diverse passions.”
― Walter Isaacson, Leonardo da Vinci

“We have many reasons to hope for great happiness, but ... we have to earn it. And that's something you can't achieve by taking the easy way out. Earning happiness means doing good and working, not speculating and being lazy. Laziness may look inviting, but only work gives you true satisfaction.”
― Anne Frank

“As a well-spent day brings a happy sleep, so a well-employed life brings a happy death.”
― Leonardo da Vinci

“Talent hits a target that no one else can hit. Genius hits a target no one else can see.”
― Arthur Schopenhauer
