And most of that art has been created more than 200 years ago anyways. Curious to know what other countries will be looked back on 200 years from now as the hubs of creative and artistic brilliance during the 21st century, like Italy was during the renaissance. But I am not sure if it is any of the European countries. Most of them, unfortunately, are resting on the laurels of history.

Be careful not to fall into the trap of not being able to participate in conversations that are not about numbers, places, or people

To feel more certain and stable, maximize the number of uncertain and volatile moments. A lot of life can sprout from the mystical element of surprise which shocks you when you're unprepared, and the feeling of being unprepared is life-altering itself

@BoringBiz_ Showing a girl you like a YouTube video is nothing short of an initiation process, a private invitation, a test to see whether your views on life, love, and politics align, and whether you are emotionally and sexually compatible (the video is a 3-minute comedy sketch from 2017)

@tendollardanny - kebab guy calling you "boss" - big man at the gym says "you're getting bigger" - artsy girl saying "you have great taste" - mom saying "I'm proud of you" (in that order)

I like the idea of collecting books I might never read, and I do not regret having something in my collection which might forever remain an untouched mystery, for it will remind me of a moment in my life where seeing that book on a shelf in a store evoked something in my me, something that was enough for me to carry it into the privacy of my home and show it where I spend most of my time

The people who push this agenda of non-stop grindmaxxing are always the bots who work on some slop product which nobody needs more of. - Insurance agencies - Gambling websites - SaaS for coaching SaaS coaches about SaaS - consultant consultancy Where are the farmers, the plumbers, small entrepreneurs, violinists, novelists? You don't hear about them because they are putting in the work.

Greatness lives in big moments, but greatness can also come out of small ones. There are certain people who possess this magical ability of turning every moment to gold, magnifying its importance and their place in your memory. Stick close to these people who milk every valuable drop out of what they encounter for they will extend both the duration of your life and the life within that duration

- Everyone always at the playground - "Hi Mrs. X, is Y at home? Can he come out and play?" - Linkin Park, Meteora - PS2 loading screen - The kid with the ball getting pissed off, ending the match and going home - VHS tapes - .mp3 players and their very limited storage space whose playlist creation required a degree of strategic brilliance

Numbers. The overpowering force of average and below-average, uncapable, blind, unpredictable numbers. "And there have always been and there always will be the same percentage of winners and losers. Happy fucks and sad sacks. Fat cats and starving dogs in this world. Yeah, there may be more of us today than there's ever been. But the percentages—they stay exactly the same." Margin Call

I feel like the best traders, investment bankers, high-level executives, big pharma directors etc. always follow one of two paths: 1. They get out when they feel sick of the rules, regulations, but just before the corporate machinery wears their soul out completely, which leaves them enough time to pursue something creative/purposeful in later stages of their life. 2. They get consumed by said machinery, working until they are 72, possessing no creative possibilities, their language consisting of only facts/numbers/references, leaving a huge level of generational wealth behind them, but not much to remember them by.
