Book cover for The Courage to be Disliked: The Japanese phenomenon that shows you how to free yourself, change your life and achieve real happiness
We determine our own lives according to the meaning we give to those past experiences. Your life is not something that someone gives you, but something you choose yourself, and you are the one who decides how you live.

Yiyun Li
“Being a mother must be the saddest yet the most hopeful thing in the world, falling into a love that, once started, would never end.”
Yiyun Li

Cho Nam-Joo
“Some things in life are beyond human control. But what can be done is to wait, to prepare, to not abandon hope altogether, and, when a bit of luck comes your way, to accept it with gratitude and not take credit for all of it.”
Cho Nam-joo, Miss Kim Knows and Other Stories

“我知道
我是为了当下的生命体验而来
在每一个当下,我唯一要做的
就是完全地允许、充分地经历、彻底地体验、尽情地享受
静静地看着,只是看着
然后,允许一切发生”
Li Mengji, Allow Everything to Happen (Live a Relaxed Life)

Voltaire
“The more I read, the more I acquire, the more certain I am that I know nothing.”
Voltaire

Voltaire
“I have wanted to kill myself a hundred times, but somehow I am still in love with life. This ridiculous weakness is perhaps one of our more stupid melancholy propensities, for is there anything more stupid than to be eager to go on carrying a burden which one would gladly throw away, to loathe one’s very being and yet to hold it fast, to fondle the snake that devours us until it has eaten our hearts away?”
Voltaire, Candide, or, Optimism
