Ray Dalio
“our educational system is hung up on precision, the art of being good at approximations is insufficiently valued. This impedes conceptual thinking.”
Ray Dalio, Principles: Life and Work

Sheila Heti
“She had thought that when someone died, it would be like they went into a different room. She had not known that life itself transformed into a different room and trapped you in it without them.”
Sheila Heti, Pure Colour

Amor Towles
“For what matters in life is not whether we receive a round of applause; what matters is whether we have the courage to venture forth despite the uncertainty of acclaim.”
Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow

Jen Pollock Michel
“Part of the practice of modest faith, in times of suffering, is relinquishing our right to answers. God has never promised to explain himself, but he has promised to stay near. I will never leave, he says; I will never forsake. I am the friend that sticks closer than your brother. Do not think me unmoved by your grief. These are the faithful assurances of God as we have them in Scripture, and here is even more hope available to those willing to search it out. But let’s not be fooled to think that God has promised things like: it will get better, you’ll soon see the purpose behind this pain, there’s never more than you can handle. Often it does get better; often we do see purpose; always there is sufficient grace. But lament must practice the modest faith of finding sufficient that which God provides, even if, in seasons of great sorrow, it may not seem like enough.” …”
Jen Pollock Michel, Surprised by Paradox: The Promise of And in an Either-Or World

Yuval Noah Harari
“Silence isn’t neutrality; it is supporting the status-quo.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century
