A prophet is not someone with special visions, just someone blind to most of what others see.
- Nassim Nicholas Taleb
A man said to the universe: “Sir, I exist!” “However,” replied the universe. “The fact has not created in me a sense of obligation.”
- Stephen Crane
For him who has completed the journey, for him who is sorrowless, for him who from everything is wholly free, for him who has destroyed all ties, the fever of passion exists not… He is like a pool, unsullied by mud; to such a balanced one, life’s wanderings do not arise. Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calm is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed, perfectly peaceful and equipoised.
- Dhammapada
In the end, it’s not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away.
- Shing Xiong

something nor is anxious to renounce anything.

We should not say that one man's hour is worth another man's hour, but rather that one man during an hour is worth just as much as another man during an hour. Time is everything, man is nothing. He is at the most time's carcass.
- Karl Marx
Birth is a moment. Even death is a moment. The chain of moments spent between
the two is called life. In that case, time is indeed precious. We can bring an end
to all our problems as soon as we analyze... as to where and on what issues we
have been wasting our time.
- Deep Trivedi
Virtue consists, not in abstaining from vice, but in not desiring it.
