Here, I’d like to share some of the quotes which I encountered throughout my readings and also as an advice by the elders.

Use money to gain control over your time, because not having control of your time is such a powerful and universal drag on happiness. The ability to do what you want, when you want, with who you want, for as long as you want to, pays the highest dividend that exists in finance.

The Psychology of Money, Morgan Housel

Every individual is a puzzle of needs. Be the missing piece, and they’ll give you everything.

Dialogue in the movie, Red Sparrow

And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about

Haruki Murakami

What is the cost of lies? It’s not that we’ll mistake them for the truth. The real danger is that if we hear enough lies, then we no longer recogize the truth at all.

Valery Legasov — Character, in Chernobyl (by HBO)

Celebrate your efforts, rather than the results.
