Book cover for Love in the Time of Cholera
“It is incredible how one can be happy for so many years in the midst of so many squabbles, so many problems, damn it, and not really know if it was love or not.”
Jitendra
Very astute observation

Richard Dawkins
“Blind faith can justify anything.* If a man believes in a different god, or even if he uses a different ritual for worshipping the same god, blind faith can decree that he should die—on the cross, at the stake, skewered on a Crusader’s sword, shot in a Beirut street, or blown up in a bar in Belfast. Memes for blind faith have their own ruthless ways of propagating themselves. This is true of patriotic and political as well as religious blind faith.”
Richard Dawkins, The Selfish Gene

“Don’t take yourself so seriously. You’re just a monkey with a plan.”
Naval Ravikant

Yuval Noah Harari
“In the past, censorship worked by blocking the flow of information. In the twenty-first century, censorship works by flooding people with irrelevant information. [...] In ancient times having power meant having access to data. Today having power means knowing what to ignore.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow

Benjamin Graham
“In the short run, the market is a voting machine but in the long run, it is a weighing machine.”
Benjamin Graham

Eric Jorgenson
“Play iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest.”
Eric Jorgenson, The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness
