If you do not stand up to injustice, it's not because you are patient. You have just become accustomed to fear.

If I were a question, would you be my answer?

Maybe because I've lived a pretty smooth-sailing and sheltered life so far that it has made me treat each failure too seriously. Need to start taking things in my stride.

I guess being bold won't always pay off. But all we can do is continue moving forward while being true to ourselves.

'The art of economics consists in looking not merely at the immediate hut at the longer effects of any act or policy; it consists in tracing the consequences of that policy not merely for one group but for all groups.' - Hazlitt, 1946.

Well put, but that can be said for any action we take in life.

You can't have your cake and eat it. I don't know why people keep on fruitlessly trying to do so.

Can I run and hide
I’m stuck inside my memories
Step away from time
take me to a place
where I will never grow old
I’m tired everyday
I’m thirsty for the rain

'I'll tell you a secret. Something they don't teach you in your temple. The Gods envy us. They envy us because we are mortal, because any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.' - Achilles
