"The thing I would say is, when you grow up you tend to get told that the world is the way it is, your life is just to live your life inside the world, try not to bash into the walls too much, try to have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money.

But that's a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact, and that is that everything around you that you call life, was made up by people that were no smarter than you.

And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use. And the minute that you understand that you can poke life and actually if you push in, something will pop out the other side. You can change it, you can mold it.

That's maybe the most important thing - is to shake off this erroneous notion that life is there and you're just gonna live in it, versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it.

I think that's very important. And however you learn that once you learn it, you'll want to change life and make it better because it's kind of messed up in a lot of ways.

Once you learn that, you'll never be the same again." (Steve Jobs)

“Money is the currency of satisfaction, minus God.” (Katelyn)

“If you don’t lie, you don’t have to remember anything.” (Mark Twain)

"You can change people's perspective, but not their nature." (Nick Nanakos)

“‘Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.’” (Luke‬ ‭22:42‬)

“It’s easy to get caught in a flood of my new, and the key to not feeling rushed is remembering that lack of time is actually lack of priorities. Take time to stop and smell the roses, or - in this case – to count the pea pods.” (Tim Ferriss - “The 4 Hour Work Week”, p. 75)
