Arthur Schopenhauer
“Health outweighs all other blessings so much that one may really say that a healthy beggar is happier than an ailing king. A quiet and cheerful temperament, happy in the enjoyment of a perfectly sound physique, an intellect clear, lively, penetrating and seeing things as they are, a moderate and gentle will, and therefore a good conscience—these are privileges which no rank or wealth can make up for or replace.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The Wisdom of Life

Arthur Schopenhauer
“It is the possession of a great heart or a great head, and not the mere fame of it, which is worth having, and conducive to happiness. Not fame, but that which deserves to be famous, is what a man should hold in esteem.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The Wisdom of Life

Robert M. Sapolsky
“The brain is heavily influenced by genes. But from birth through young adulthood, the part of the human brain that most defines us (frontal cortex) is less a product of the genes with which you started life than of what life has thrown at you. Because it is the last to mature, by definition the frontal cortex is the brain region least constrained by genes and most sculpted by experience. This must be so, to be the supremely complex social species that we are. Ironically, it seems that the genetic program of human brain development has evolved to, as much as possible, free the frontal cortex from genes.”
Robert M. Sapolsky, Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst

Paul Kalanithi
“even if I’m dying, until I actually die, I am still living.”
Paul Kalanithi, When Breath Becomes Air

Arthur Schopenhauer
“If you stroke a cat, it will purr; and, as inevitably, if you praise a man, a sweet expression of delight will appear on his face; and even though the praise is a palpable lie, it will be welcome, if the matter is one on which he prides himself.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The Wisdom of Life
