Yuval Noah Harari
“The most common reaction of the human mind to achievement is not satisfaction, but craving for more.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow

Gabrielle Zevin
“Most people's problems would be solved if they would only give more things a chance.”
Gabrielle Zevin, The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry

Helene Hanff
“But I don't know, maybe it's just as well I never got there. I dreamed about it for so many years. I used to go to English movies just to look at the streets. I remember years ago a guy I knew told me that people going to England find exactly what they go looking for. I said I'd go looking for the England of English Literature, and he nodded and said: "It's there.”
Helene Hanff, 84, Charing Cross Road

“Accept who you are. Unless you're a serial killer.”
Ellen DeGeneres, Seriously... I'm Kidding

Alain de Botton
“We need a home in the psychological sense as much as we need one in the physical: to compensate for a vulnerability. We need a refuge to shore up our states of mind, because so much of the world is opposed to our allegiances. We need our rooms to align us to desirable versions of ourselves and to keep alive the important, evanescent sides of us.”
Alain de Botton, The Architecture of Happiness
