"I'm on the Semplica Girl Diaries bit and I'm weeping. This story is just too relatable that it hurts. Sanders wrote it beautifully, too." — Feb 02, 2014 09:08AM

"Taking a break from non-fiction. It's a great light read so far but I think it should be taken slowly (at least for me). All of the Harvard Business School references just bring out flashbacks of the previous semester haha (stress!). Will be placing this on my bedside table so I can just grab it when I feel like it." — Dec 20, 2013 09:10PM

“No sooner had he thought this than he realized what was anchoring his happiness. It was purpose. He knew what he wanted to do.

“Later on in life, you expect a bit of rest, don't you? You think you deserve it. I did, anyway. But then you begin to understand that the reward of merit is not life's business.”

“No one else can want for me. No one can substitute his act of will for mine. It does sometimes happen that someone very much wants me to want what he wants. This is the moment when the impassable frontier between him and me, which is drawn by free will, becomes most obvious. I may not want that which he wants me to want - and in this precisely I am incommunicabilis. I am, and I must be, independent in my actions. All human relationships are posited on this fact.”
