“Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.”

“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing. A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor with both hands at sections of time. A schedule is a mock-up of reason and order—willed, faked, and so brought into being; it is a peace and a haven set into the wreck of time; it is a lifeboat on which you find yourself, decades later, still living.”

“If you are investing in your education and you are learning, you should do that as early as you possibly can, because then it will have time to compound over the longest period.
And that the things you do learn and invest in should be knowledge that is cumulative, so that the knowledge builds on itself.
