Winston S. Churchill
“Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.”
Winston S. Churchill

Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
“They say that life is an accident, driven by sexual desire, that the universe has no moral order, no truth, no God.

Driven by insatiable lusts, drunk on the arrogance of power, hypocritical, deluded, their actions foul with self-seeking, tormented by a vast anxiety that continues until their death, convinced that the gratification of desire is life's sole aim, bound by a hundred shackles of hope, enslaved by their greed, they squander their time dishonestly piling up mountains of wealth.

"Today I got this desire, and tomorrow I will get that one; all these riches are mine, and soon I will have even more. Already I have killed these enemies, and soon I will kill the rest. I am the lord, the enjoyer, successful, happy, and strong, noble, and rich, and famous. Who on earth is my equal?”
Ved Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita

Haruki Murakami
“Your work should be an act of love, not a marriage of convenience.”
Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman

Jorge Luis Borges
“The author of an atrocious undertaking ought to imagine that he has already
accomplished it, ought to impose upon himself a future as irrevocable as the past.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings

Milton H. Erickson
“Change will lead to insight more often than insight will lead to change.”
Milton Erickson
