“The exchange of one fear or pleasure or pain for another fear or pleasure or pain, which are measured like coins, the greater with the less, is not the exchange of virtue. O, my dear Simmias, is there not one true coin, for which all things ought to exchange?—and that is wisdom; and only in exchange for this, and in company with this, is anything truly bought or sold, whether courage or temperance or justice. ...in the true exchange, there is a purging away of all these things, and temperance, and justice, and courage, and wisdom herself are a purgation of them.”

The Trials Of Socrates • Plato

“Language is originally and essentially nothing but a system of signs or symbols, which denote real occurrences, or their echo in the human soul.”

“The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us.”

Atomic Habits • James Clear

“There is not past, no future; everything flows in an eternal present.”

Ulysses • James Joyce

“Food production was indirectly a prerequisite for the development of guns, germs, and steel. Hence geographic variation in whether, or when, the peoples of different continents became farmers and herders explains to a large extent their subsequent contrasting fates.”

Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)
