“There is nothing that so raises a young man's self-esteem, that so contributes to the formation of his character as for him to find himself unexpectedly confronted with a task which he has to accomplish entirely on his own initiative and by his own efforts.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“A man that flies from his fear may find that he has only taken a short cut to meet it.”
The Children of Hurin • J.R.R Tolkien“Because we are the cause of our environmental problems, we are the ones in control of them, and we can choose or not choose to stop causing them and start solving them.

Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed • Jared Diamond““Let’s face it: our lives are miserable, laborious, and short.””
Animal Farm • George Orwell““A wise prince ought to . . . never in peaceful times stand idle, but increase his resources with industry in such a way that they may be available to him in adversity.””
