See All“Luck knows no limits.”
Oedipus • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“In fact, one of the main lesson to be learned from the collapses of the Maya, Anasazi, Easter Islanders, and those other past societies (as well as from the recent collapse of the Soviet Union) is that a society's steep decline may begin only a decade or two after the society reaches its peak numbers, wealth, and power. [...] The reason is simple: maximum population, wealth, resource consumption, and waste production mean maximum environmental impact, approaching the limit where impact outstrips resources. On reflection, it's no surprise that declines of societies tend to follow swiftly on their peaks.”
Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed • Jared Diamond“Behind your thoughts and feelings, my brother, there is a mighty lord, an unknown sage--his name is self.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche““A prince who is not wise himself will never take good advice.””
