Ernest Hemingway
“you can't get away from yourself by moving from one place to another.”
Ernest Hemingway, The Sun Also Rises

Stefan Sagmeister
“It is very important to embrace failure and to do a lot of stuff — as much stuff as possible — with as little fear as possible. It’s much, much better to wind up with a lot of crap having tried it than to overthink in the beginning and not do it.”
Stefan Sagmeister

Robert Ludlum
“Credo quia absurdum – I believe because it is absurd.”
Robert Ludlum, The Janson Directive

Amartya Sen
“Resenting the obtuseness of others is not good ground for shooting oneself in the foot.”
amartya sen

Arundhati Roy
“The first step towards reimagining a world gone terribly wrong would be to stop the annihilation of those who have a different imagination–an imagination that is outside of capitalism as well as communism. An imagination which has an altogether different understanding of what constitutes happiness and fulfilment. To gain this philosophical space, it is necessary to concede some physical space for survival of those who may look like the keepers of our past but who may really be the guides to our future. To do this, we have to ask our rulers: Can you leave the water in the rivers, the trees in the forest? Can you leave the bauxite in the mountain?”
Arundhati Roy, Broken Republic: Three Essays
