Nikola Tesla
“The present is theirs; the future, for which I really worked, is mine.”
Nikola Tesla

Hannah Arendt
“Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it.”
Hannah Arendt

Friedrich Nietzsche
“it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Birth of Tragedy / The Case of Wagner

Christopher McCandless
“Two years he walks the Earth. No phone, no pool, no pets, no cigarettes. Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped from Atlanta. Thou shalt not return, 'cause "the West is the best." And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure. The climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual revolution. Ten days and nights of freight trains and hitchhiking bring him to the great white north. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild.”
Christopher McCandless

Bruce Lee
“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.”
Bruce Lee
