“If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals.”
The First Step • Leo Tolstoy“Desire may reflect anything from a desperate need to a transitory want. In either case, wealth is anything that satisfies the craving. It applies balm to the itch. It may, in fact, gratify more than one desire at a time. We may want a touch of beauty on our living room wall. A painting, even an inexpensive reproduction, may provide a small surge of pleasure every time we pause to look at it. The same work of art may simultaneously fulfill our desire to impress visitors with our splendid good taste, or our social importance. But wealth can also be a bank account, a bicycle, a hoard of food or a health insurance policy.”
Revolutionary Wealth • Alvin Toffler“ “I understand that in our work - doesn't matter whether it's acting or writing ."”

Essays • Michel De Montaigne“Choose not to be harmed—and you won't feel harmed. Don't feel harmed—and you haven't been. ”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius
