“Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying “yes” begins things. Saying “yes” is how things grow. Saying “yes” leads to knowledge. “Yes” is for young people. So for as long as you have the strength to, say “yes'.”
― Stephen Colbert

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“The human heart will never wrinkle.”

“Un lucru pe care putem să-1 recunoaştem este că
frecventarea marilor opere, folosirea minţii proprii, citirea
lucrărilor unor genii, chiar dacă nu te face cu certitudine
inteligent, face riscul mai probabil. Desigur, există oameni
care au citit Freud, Platon, care ştiu să jongleze cu cuarci şi
să deosebească un şoim-călător de un vinde-reu, şi care
să fie nişte imbecili. Cu toate acestea, potenţial, în contact
cu o multitudine de stimuli şi lăsîndu-ţi spiritul să
frecventeze o atmosferă stimulatoare, inteligenţa găseşte
un teren favorabil dezvoltării ei, exact la fel ca o boală.
Căci inteligenţa este o boală.”
