Kevin Kelly, The Inevitable: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future

Yuval Noah Harari
“I never react to events in the outside world; I always react to the sensations in my own body. (...) Even when we think we react to what another person has done, to President Trump's latest tweet, or to a distant childhood memory, the truth is we always react to our immediate bodily sensations. If we are outraged that somebody insulted our nation or our god, what makes the insult unbearable is the burning sensations in the pit of our stomach and the band of pain that grips our heart. Our nation feels nothing, but our body really hurts.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

“Being a Negro’s a lie, anyway. Nobody sees the real you. Nobody knows who you are inside. You just judged on what you are on the outside whatever your color. Mulatto, colored, black, it don’t matter. You just a Negro to the world.”
James McBride, The Good Lord Bird

Dan Lyons
“We can’t just fix the workplace. We need to fix capitalism itself—and not just by making a few small tweaks at the edges. The whole system needs a major, fundamental reboot.”
Dan Lyons, Lab Rats: Tech Gurus, Junk Science, and Management Fads—My Quest to Make Work Less Miserable

“With bread and wine you can walk your road.”
Spanish Proverb
