Pick-Up 037: Love Quotes
Hey friends,
1.On circumstances:
“Pragmatism is the best teacher.
Learning is accelerated by purpose.
We learn best when we need to know.
Technology is best understood by making.
Teamwork is learned quickly when there is too much to do.”
— Brian MacKay-Lyons, Ghost - Building an Architectural Vision
2.On persistence:
"It never occurred to me that I couldn’t live the life I wanted to lead. It never occurred to me that I could be stopped...
I had this very simple view: that the reason people who start out with ideals or aspirations don’t do what they dream of doing when they’re young is because they quit.
I thought, well, I won’t quit.”
— Susan Sontag.
3.On life:
“Some have no aims at all for their life's course, but death takes them unawares as they yawn languidly-so much so that I cannot doubt the truth of that oracular remark of the greatest of poets:'It is a small part of life we really live.' Indeed,all the rest is not life but merely time.”
—Seneca on the shortness of life - Life is long if you know how to use it.
That is it.
Wishing you a great week ahead.
Take good care.
Bye. Xx
