Bob Marley
“If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you wont give up. If you give up, you're not worthy. ... Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.”
Bob Marley, Bob Marley: Guitar Chord Songbook | Reggae Guitar Songbook with Lyrics, Chord Symbols and Guitar Chord Diagrams | Nearly 40 Classics for Acoustic or Electric Guitar | Strumming and Singing

Nassim Nicholas Taleb
“Learn to read history, get all the knowledge you can, do not frown on the anecdote, but do not draw any causal links, do not try to reverse engineer too much -- but if you do, do not make big scientific claims.”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

George Orwell
“To talk, simply to talk! It sounds so little, and how much it is! When you have existed to the brink of middle age in bitter loneliness, among people to whom your true opinion on every subject on earth is blasphemy, the need to talk is the greatest of all needs.”
George Orwell, Burmese Days

Dan Ariely
“One percent of people will always be honest and never steal," the locksmith said. "Another one percent will always be dishonest and always try to pick your lock and steal your television. And the rest will be honest as long as the conditions are right - but if they are tempted enough, they'll be dishonest too. Locks won't protect you from the thieves, who can get in your house if they really want to. They will only protect you from the mostly honest people who might be tempted to try your door if it had no lock".”
Dan Ariely, The Honest Truth About Dishonesty: How We Lie to Everyone - Especially Ourselves

S.I. Hayakawa
“In a real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot or will not read. It is not true that we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish.”
S. I. Hayakawa
