“في مجتمع الإغواء والإغراء (السينوبتيكون) الذي يسكنه مدمنو التسوق والفرجة، لا يستطيع الفقراء أن يغضوا الطرف عما حولهم؛ فلا يوجد مكان يمكنهم فيه أن يغضوا الطرف. فكلما زادت الحرية على الشاشة، وجاذبية المغريات التي تغري الناس بعروض محال التسوق، زاد الإحساس بالواقع البائس الفقير، وزادت الرغبة العارمة في تذوق حتى ولو للحظة خاطفة عابرة، نعمة القدرة على الاختيار، فكلما كثرت اختيارات الأغنياء، نقصت قدرة الجميع على احتمال حياة بلا قدرة على الاختيار”
زيجمونت باومان, Liquid Modernity

“You believe that creating your best life is a matter of deciding what you want, and then going after it, but in reality, you are psychologically incapable of being able to predict what will make you happy. Your brain can only perceive what it's known, so when you choose what you want for the future, you're actually recreating a solution or an ideal of the past. When things don't work out the way you want them to, you think you failed, only because you didn't recreate something you perceived as desirable. In reality, you likely created something better but foreign, and your brain misinterpreted it as bad because of that.”
Brianna Wiest, 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think

“Pour vivre heureux, vivons cachés, says an old French dictum—to live happily, live hidden.”
Tom Sancton, The Bettencourt Affair: The World's Richest Woman and the Scandal That Rocked Paris

“The person who gives him or herself wholly, the person who feels freest, is the person who loves most wholeheartedly.”

“The strongest love is the love that can demonstrate its fragility.”
