Ha-Joon Chang
“Economics is a political argument. It is not – and can never be – a science; there are no objective truths in economics that can be established independently of political, and frequently moral, judgements. Therefore, when faced with an economic argument, you must ask the age-old question ‘Cui bono?’ (Who benefits?), first made famous by the Roman statesman and orator Marcus Tullius Cicero.”
Ha-Joon Chang, Economics: The User's Guide

“Ребенку скучно играть с готовой игрушкой, которую можно использовать только по какому-то одному назначению. Какая бы дорогая эта игрушка ни была, она не представляет ценности для ребенка, если он не может что-то делать с ней руками или приспособить ее в соответствии со своим богатым воображением.”
Масару Ибука, После трех уже поздно

Pierce Brown
“I will die. You will die. We will all die and the universe will carry on without care. All that we have is that shout into the wind - how we live. How we go. And how we stand before we fall.”
Pierce Brown, Golden Son

“Friendships take minutes to make, moments to break, years to repair.”
Pierce Brown, Golden Son

Brandon Sanderson
“Sometimes a hypocrite is nothing more than a man in the process of changing.”
Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer
