See All“Success is the product of daily habits—not once-in-a-lifetime transformations.”
Atomic Habits • James Clear“ "Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation, there is sure to be failure."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“Species do not grow more perfect: the weaker dominate the strong, again and again--- the reason being that they are the great majority, and they are also cleverer. Darwin forgot the mind (---that is English!): the weak possess more mind. ... To acquire mind, one must need mind---one loses it when one no longer needs it. [Criticism of Darwin's Origin of Species.]”
Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Optimism is not only a false but also a pernicious doctrine, for it presents life as a desirable state and man's happiness as its aim and object. Starting from this, everyone then believes he has the most legitimate claim to happiness and enjoyment. If, as usually happens, these do not fall to his lot, he believes that he suffers an injustice, in fact that he misses the whole point of his existence.”
The World As Will and Representation • Arthur Schopenhauer“There are people who the more you do for them, the less they will do for themselves.”
Emma • Jane Austen
