Quote by Mehmet Murat Ildan

“If you throw away your religion, your humanity won't perish, because your humanity isn't dependent on religion. But if you throw away your morality and conscience, then your humanity will perish! If you say that religion is the source of morality and conscience, then you can't explain the millions of irreligious people who possess wonderful morals and consciences!”

“life hacking, especially the optimizing type, is associated with a type of tunnel vision. Life hacking can be like donning a set of horse blinkers so as to block out distractions and focus attention on personal goals. This means, however, that with their vision fixed on the horizon, hackers can be naive to the people and circumstances on their periphery. The more optimal the hacking, the more narrow and distant the vision tends to be. (*Hacking Life*, p. 12)”
