If you're really driven and you want something deep, hard enough in life, you're going to get it.

Strike the shepherd and the sheep will scatter

You could have a lot of money at your fingertips, the finest education and intellectual knowledge, but if you are governed by fear none of that will matter. You will remain tied to dead ideas and stale strategies. You will not be able to adapt. You will lose what you have.

Mastery is not a function of genius or talent. It is a function of time and intense focus applied to a particular field of knowledge.

Only your hearts be frolic, for the time Craves that we taste of naught but jouissance.
