Tim Minchin
“Please don’t make the mistake of thinking the arts and sciences are at odds with one another. That is a recent, stupid, and damaging idea. You don’t have to be unscientific to make beautiful art, to write beautiful things.

If you need proof: Twain, Adams, Vonnegut, McEwen, Sagan, Shakespeare, Dickens. For a start.

You don’t need to be superstitious to be a poet. You don’t need to hate GM technology to care about the beauty of the planet. You don’t have to claim a soul to promote compassion.

Science is not a body of knowledge nor a system of belief; it is just a term which describes humankind’s incremental acquisition of understanding through observation. Science is awesome.”
Tim Minchin

“Be more than motivated, be more than driven, become literally obsessed to the point where people think you're fucking nuts.”
David Goggins, Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds

Jim Rohn
“You're the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”
Jim Rohn

Tim Minchin
“Science adjusts its views based on what's observed
Faith is the denial of observation so that belief can be preserved.”
Tim Minchin

Hal Elrod
“Research has shown that we virtually become like the average of the five people we spend the most time with. Who you spend your time with may be the single most determining factor in the person you become and in your quality of life. If you are surrounded with lazy, weak-minded, excuse-making people, you’ll inevitably become like them. Spend time with positive, successful achievers and inevitably their attitudes and successful habits will reflect on you. You’ll become more and more like them.”
Hal Elrod, The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life: Before 8AM
