“The fact is that some things will be lost in our new way of life. It is useless to pretend that the transformation to a lower-energy, lower-consumption society will always be painless and easy.

“Lo que la gente diga de si misma no importa; dirá lo que sea. Ve lo que ha hecho; los actos no mienten. También puedes aplicar esta lógica a ti mism@. Al analizar una derrota, identifica las cosas que habrías podido hacer de otra manera. La culpa de tus fracasos la tienen tus malas estrategias, no las trampas del contrincante. Eres responsable de lo bueno y lo malo en tu vida. Como corolario de esto, ve todo lo que hacen los demás como una maniobra estratégica, un intento por conseguir la victoria. Quienes te acusan de desleal, por ejemplo; quienes intentan hacerte sentir culpable y hablan de justicia y moral, tratan de obtener una ventaja en el tablero.”
― Robert Greene
