Alain de Botton
“A good half of the art of living is resilience.”
Alain de Botton

“Graham excuses himself for a moment to go over to his laptop and look up what he had written in his notes after their interview. When he returns, he reports that he had written the following: “Insanely energetic founders. Fund for the new idea.” So Graham is not going to be the one who encourages them to pursue”
Randall E. Stross, The Launch Pad: Inside Y Combinator

Alain de Botton
“One's doing well if age improves even slightly one's capacity to hold on to that vital truism: "This too shall pass.”
Alain de Botton

“Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before. You can fight it, you can do nothing but scream about what you've lost, or you can accept that and try to put together something that's good.”
Elizabeth Edwards

Brandon Sanderson
“Cleaning the wound is often more painful
than the cut itself.”
Brandon Sanderson, Shadows of Self
