Frances Hodgson Burnett
“Perhaps," she said, "to be able to learn things quickly isn't everything. To be kind is worth a great deal to other people.”
Frances Hodgson Burnett, A Little Princess

James Clear
“Focus on whether you are fulfilling your own potential than comparing yourself to someone else. The fact that you have a natural limit to any specific ability has nothing too do with whether you are reaching the ceiling of your capabilities. People get so caught up in the fact that they have limits that they rarely exert the effort required to get close to them.
Genes can not make you successful if you’re not doing the work. Until you work as hard as those you admire, don’t explain away their success as luck.”
James Clear, Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones

Arthur Conan Doyle
“Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.” - Sherlock Homes”
Arthur Conan Doyle

John Steinbeck
“The direction of a big act will warp history, but probably all acts will do the same thing in their degree, down to a stone stepped over in a path or a breath caught at the sight of a pretty girl or a finger nail nicked in the garden soil.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Joseph Heller
“Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you.”
Joseph Heller, Catch-22
