Quotations
Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Decline starts with the replacement of dreams with memories and ends with the replacement of memories with other memories.
The difference between love and happiness is that those who talk about love tend to be in love, but those who talk about happiness tend to be not happy.
You need to keep reminding yourself of the obvious: charm lies in the unsaid, the unwritten, and the undisplayed. It takes mastery to control silence.
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
