“Everything worthwhile in life is won through surmounting the associated negative experience. Any attempt to escape the negative, to avoid it or quash it or silence it, only backfires. The avoidance of suffering is a form of suffering. The avoidance of struggle is a struggle. The denial of failure is a failure. Hiding what is shameful is itself a form of shame.
Pain is an inextricable thread in the fabric of life, and to tear it out is not only impossible, but destructive: attempting to tear it out unravels everything else with it. To try to avoid pain is to give too many fucks about pain. In contrast, if you’re able to not give a fuck about the pain, you become unstoppable." ~~~~ Mark Manson”

“Koliko puta ste poželjeli da vas nema, da izmaknete tuđim pogledima, da bar za tren budete skriveni od tuđih razmišljanja i sudova? Koliko ste puta, dakle, poželjeli da budete nevidljivi, dostupni i spoznatljivi samo sebi? Nevidljivost, fantazija rasplamtjele mašte, nevidljivost kao jeftina dosjetka iz starih naučno-fantastičnih i horor filmova. I tu se stvar završava. Svijet, i mi u njemu, uvijek će ostati vidljiv, možda i previše vidljiv, i dok se probijamo kroz njegovu iritirajuću očitost, samo ponekad pomislit ćemo kako bi dobro bilo biti nevidljiv.”
