Ryan Holiday
“Talk depletes us. Talking and doing fight for the same resources. Research shows that while goal visualization is important, after a certain point our mind begins to confuse it with actual progress. The same goes for verbalization.”
Ryan Holiday, Ego is the Enemy: The Fight to Master Our Greatest Opponent

Dolly Alderton
“I once heard a theory about the first relationship that occurs after a big relationship ends. It’s called the 90/10 rule. The theory goes: whatever the crucial 10 per cent is that was missing from your partner who was otherwise totally right for you is the thing you look for in the following person. That missing 10 per cent becomes such a fixation that, when you do find someone who has it, you ignore the fact they don’t have the other 90 per cent that the previous partner had.”
Dolly Alderton, Good Material

Ryan Holiday
“The orator Demosthenes once said that virtue begins with understanding and is fulfilled by courage. We must begin by seeing ourselves and the world in a new way for the first time. Then we must fight to be different and fight to stay different—that’s the hard part.”
Ryan Holiday, Ego Is the Enemy

Amor Towles
“If patience wasn’t so easily tested, then it would hardly be a virtue. . . .”
Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow

Ryan Holiday
“In actuality, silence is strength—particularly early on in any journey. As the philosopher (and as it happens, a hater of newspapers and their chatter) Kierkegaard warned, “Mere gossip anticipates real talk, and to express what is still in thought weakens action by forestalling it.”
Ryan Holiday, Ego is the Enemy: The Fight to Master Our Greatest Opponent
