“It is my firm belief that the best way to fix the world—a handyman’s dream, if ever there was one—is to fix yourself,”
Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

Jordan B. Peterson
“Stop saying those things that make you weak and ashamed. Say only those things that make you strong. Do only those things that you could speak of with honour.”
Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

Jordan B. Peterson
“So, attend carefully to your posture. Quit drooping and hunching around. Speak your mind. Put your desires forward, as if you had a right to them—at least the same right as others. Walk tall and gaze forthrightly ahead. Dare to be dangerous. Encourage the serotonin to flow plentifully through the neural pathways desperate for its calming influence.”
Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

Jordan B. Peterson
“Human female choosiness is also why we are very different from the common ancestor we shared with our chimpanzee cousins, while the latter are very much the same. Women’s proclivity to say no, more than any other force, has shaped our evolution into the creative, industrious, upright, large-brained (competitive, aggressive, domineering) creatures that we are.42 It is Nature as Woman who says, “Well, bucko, you’re good enough for a friend, but my experience of you so far has not indicated the suitability of your genetic material for continued propagation.”

“When you have something to say, silence is a lie.”
