Book cover for The Art of War
He who is reckless can be killed. He who is cowardly can be captured. He who is quick tempered can be insulted. He who is moral can be shamed. He who is fond of the people can be worried.13 These five traits are faults in a general, and are ...more

Leadership principles described by Sun Tzu in Art of War are still relatable to this day, maybe not verbatim, but pretty much every statement in the book, holds true metaphorically in the modern world. A gripping and insightful book indeed.

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Of inference, all are capable; of judgment, only a few.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Portable Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
“To educate educators! But the first ones must educate themselves! And for these I write. (VII,”
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Portable Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Here he seeks out his last master: he wants to fight him and his last god; for ultimate victory he wants to fight with the great dragon. Who is the great dragon whom the spirit will no longer call lord and god? “Thou shalt” is the name of the great dragon. But the spirit of the lion says, “I will.” “Thou shalt” lies in his way, sparkling like gold, an animal covered with scales; and on every scale shines a golden “thou shalt.” Values, thousands of years old, shine on these scales; and thus speaks the mightiest of all dragons: “All value of all things shines on me. All value has long been created, and I am all created value. Verily, there shall be no more ‘I will.’ ” Thus speaks the dragon. My brothers, why is there a need in the spirit for the lion? Why is not the beast of burden, which renounces and is reverent, enough?”
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Portable Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
“I say unto you: one must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star. I say unto you: you still have chaos in yourselves.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Portable Nietzsche

Neil deGrasse Tyson
“Consider an adult who tends to the traumas of a child: spilled milk, a broken toy, a scraped knee. As adults we know that kids have no clue of what constitutes a genuine problem, because inexperience greatly limits their childhood perspective. Children do not yet know that the world doesn’t revolve around them. As grown-ups, dare we admit to ourselves that we, too, have a collective immaturity of view? Dare we admit that our thoughts and behaviors spring from a belief that the world revolves around us? Apparently not. Yet evidence abounds. Part the curtains of society’s racial, ethnic, religious, national, and cultural conflicts, and you find the human ego turning the knobs and pulling the levers.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry
