Most people know nothing about learning; many despise it. Dummies reject as too hard whatever is not dumb. Utopia

Quote:- Most people live in almost total darkness…people, millions of people whom you will never see, who don’t know you, never will know you, people who may try to kill you in the morning, live in a darkness which...if you have that funny terrible thing which every artist can recognize and no artist can define...you are responsible to those people to lighten, and it does not matter what happens to you. You are being used in the way a crab is useful, the way sand certainly has some function. It is impersonal. This force which you didn’t ask for, and this destiny which you must accept, is also your responsibility. And if you survive it, if you don’t cheat, if you don’t lie, it is not only, you know, your glory, your achievement, it is almost our only hope... Because only an artist can tell, and only artists have told since we have heard of man, what it is like for anyone who gets to this planet to survive it. What it is like to die, or to have somebody die; what it is like to be glad... The trouble is that although the artist can do it, the price that he has to pay himself and that you, the audience, must also pay, is a willingness to give up everything, to realize that although you spent twenty-seven years acquiring this house, this furniture, this position, although you spent forty years raising this child, these children, nothing, none of it belongs to you. You can only have it by letting it go. You can only take if you are prepared to give...It is a total risk of everything, of you and who you think you are, who you think you’d like to be, where you think you’d like to go...everything, and this forever, forever.

Quote:- Most people live in urban settings and interact with others over telecommunications networks, implying their well-being is closely tied to and influenced by others around them. In such large-scale, connected societies, it is usually easier to provide benefits to many people as a group than to individuals separately. Information is easily shared by many; applications for social interaction have little value if used only by a few; public transport shared by many is often more economical than individual vehicles. Yet such large-scale services at present are either provided by monopolistic corporations or by dysfunctional public authorities. Fear of the failures of these providers often leads us to wastefully retreat from public life behind the walls of our homes, our gated communities, our private servers, and our individual cars. As early as the 1950s, economist John Kenneth Galbraith called this the paradox of 'public poverty among 'private affluence': while children are "Admirably equipped with television sets," "schools were often severely overcrowded . . . and underprovided." He complained that a "family which takes its air-conditioned . . . automobile out for a tour passes through cities that are badly paved, made hideous by litter, blighted buildings and posts for wires that long since should have been put underground.

Quote:- Most people lost lot of opportunities that would have changed their lives, because the time the opportunities were presented to them. They didn’t like the person who was giving them the opportunities, or they didn’t feel like it. Their ego and pride got in the way. They didn’t seize the moment. What good does your status do for you, if it makes you sleep hungry. Your pride should not stop you from hustling and from humbling beginnings.

The Self-Employed Life: Business and Personal Development Strategies That Create Sustainable Success

Quote:- Most people these days chase new things - new houses, new cars, new objects. But, they don't realise that old houses, old cars, and old objects have something that new things don't have - their history and culture. We must look at life from each other's perspective. New things will make you feel good but maybe for a short time. There is nothing fascinating about chasing new things. Which is why some people, like my parents, love old things, because these things have emotions, and sentiments attached to them. My Mom and Dad choose to stay in our old house in my hometown, because it was the house they built with their hard work and love. It is the house where my mother writes her beautiful poetry. It is the house where my father treats his patients. It is a house which has books, culture, cracks and yes history.

Quote:- Most people think I'm crazy—I'm in a cult called happiness, I practice the religion of kindness, I'm a quack in the pseudoscience of love, I work in the field of unlimited possibilities, my diet is that of knowledge, my orientation is irrelevant, my purpose is growth, my entitlement is freedom, my motivation is joy, my evidence is my success, and my race is humankind—I still haven't figured out the crazy part.

Quote:- Most people won't bat an eyelid when they hear about PFAS in rainwater. Why? Because they will tell you that they drink bottled water.That's when you tell them that rainwater waters their flowers, their vegetables, their livestock, our waterways and rivers.We eat the vegetables. We consume the livestock. We fry the fish and swim in the waterways & oceans.Rainwater goes everywhere and douses everything in moisture.It's already in our blood streams and in our lungs and even if you tried to stop breathing & ingesting it, we couldn't because it's everywhere.A half life of 3-4 years may not be a long period of time, but how do you stop what you can't?

Quote:- Most racism is pushed through media houses. Check the heading, wording and pictures they use, even the cartoons.Infect, I am starting to think. There is no media that likes black people or people of color. They might downplay it and say it is click bait, but how messed up are you . To use racism as click bait, unless you are racists yourself and see nothing wrong about it.

Quote:- Mostly what you lose with time, in memory, is the specificity of things, their exact sequence. It all runs together, becomes a watery soup. Portmanteau days, imploded years. Like a bad actor, memory always goes for effect, abjuring motivation, consistency, good sense.

Quote:- Một mối quan hệ đặc biệt khiến người ta thoải mái, không phải là những đoạn đối thoại anh một câu, tôi một câu, mà chính là những khoảnh khắc bất chợt, tôi có thể nói bất cứ điều gì mà tôi nhìn thấy, bất cứ hình ảnh nào chạy qua trong đầu của tôi với bạn, không cần phải tìm kiếm những từ ngữ thích hợp, lải nhải nguyên một bài không đâu vào đâu cũng không phải lo sợ mình có nói điều gì không nên nói hay không, gửi tin nhắn đi không cần phải thấp thỏm chờ đợi hồi âm, bởi tôi biết nhất định bạn sẽ đọc được. Đó chính là tín nhiệm, là sự tin tưởng, là cảm giác yên tâm rằng mình sẽ không bao giờ bị bỏ rơi.
