“It is better to be making the news than taking it; to be an actor rather than a critic.”

Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill

“About fame... Just as the sand-dunes, heaped one upon another, hide each the first, so in life the former deeds are quickly hidden by those that follow after.”

Book VII • Marcus Aurelius

“Don't aim at success — the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long run — in the long run, I say — success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of it.”

Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl

“It would have been so pointless to kill himself that, even if he had wanted to, the pointlessness would have made him unable.”

The Trial • Franz Kafka

“Little said is soonest mended.”

Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes
