“Perfection comes at a sacrifice,”
“Remember, every treasure comes with a price.” “Just because some people actually work for their money doesn’t mean they are beneath you.”
― Crazy Rich Asians

“Some party hack decreed that the people
had lost the government's confidence
and could only regain it with redoubled effort.
If that is the case, would it not be be simpler,
If the government simply dissolved the people
And elected another?”

“People drink alcohol to forget, they smoke pot to feel peaceful, they take cocaine and methamphetamines to be sharp and confident, whereas Ecstasy provides ecstatic sensations and LSD sends you to meet Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. What some people hope to get by studying, working or raising a family, others try to obtain far more easily through the right dosage of molecules.”

“Avoid placing large objects between the speakers. One of the worst things you can do is place equipment, fireplaces, furniture, or any large obstructing object between the left and right speakers. If circumstances dictate you haven’t a choice, make sure what objects are between the speakers are as low to the floor as possible. Ideally you want the electronics off to the side, where they’re convenient to access.”

“Some people say, "Give the customers what they want." But that's not my approach. Our job is to figure out what they're going to want before they do. I think Henry Ford once said, "If I'd asked customers what they wanted, they would have told me, 'A faster horse!'" People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on market research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.”
