“Sayangnya, banyak orang mengeluh saat diminta tolong menjadi A, karena merasa job desc-nya hanya B. Padahal, bukankah saat kita dipercaya melakukan sesuatu lebih dari satu pekerjaan, itu tandanya kita dianggap mampu? Bukankah itu menjadi nilai plus untuk diri kita sendiri? Siapa tahu, nilai plus ini memberi kita jenjang karier yang lebih cemerlang.”
― Fiersa Besari, Catatan Juang

“Some people are born into families that encourage education; others are against it. Some are born into flourishing economies encouraging of entrepreneurship; others are born into war and destitution. I want you to be successful, and I want you to earn it. But realize that not all success is due to hard work, and not all poverty is due to laziness. Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.”
― Morgan Housel, The Psychology of Money

“An old man says to his grandson: ‘There’s a fight going on inside me. It’s a terrible fight between two wolves. One is evil–angry, greedy, jealous, arrogant, and cowardly. The other is good–peaceful, loving, modest, generous, honest, and trustworthy. These two wolves are also fighting within you, and inside every other person too.’ After a moment, the boy asks, ‘Which wolf will win?’ The old man smiles. ‘The one you feed.’ 3”

“Kotak kecil telah dibuka.
Ada seutas arloji kecil di sana.
Bukan untuk kau pamerkan di pergelangan tangan,
Tapi mengingatkanmu bahwa jarum waktu sejatinya sungguh pantang berdetak mundur ke belakang

Curup, 26 April 1990”
