"Insightful chapter on comparison including the distinction between jealousy and envy which I was aware of but learned that unhealthy comparison says “be like everyone else but better.” Resentment as more about envy than anger “what am I denying myself that I envy you for allowing yourself?” Freudenfreude as empathetic joy" Jan 21, 2026 06:09AM

“A just society is a society that if you knew everything about it, you'd be willing to enter it in a random place”
John Rawls

“It may be expedient but it is not just that some should have less in order that others may prosper.”
John Rawls, A Theory of Justice

James Nestor
“the best way to prevent many chronic health problems, improve athletic performance, and extend longevity was to focus on how we breathed, specifically to balance oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the body. To do this, we’d need to learn how to inhale and exhale slowly.”
James Nestor, Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art

“You should try inviting AI to help you in everything you do, barring legal or ethical barriers. As you experiment, you may find that AI help can be satisfying, or frustrating, or useless, or unnerving. But you aren’t just doing this for help alone; familiarizing yourself with AI’s capabilities allows you to better understand how it can assist you—or threaten you and your job.”
Ethan Mollick, Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI

Robert Waldinger
“The good life is not always just out of reach after all. It is not waiting in the distant future after a dreamy career success. It’s not set to kick in after you acquire some massive amount of money. The good life is right in front of you, sometimes only an arm’s length away. And it starts now.”
Robert Waldinger, The Good Life: The life-changing bestseller on how to find happiness
