Quote by Lucy Kellaway

“Think what characterises the really intelligent person. They can think for themselves. They love abstract ideas. They can look dispassionately at the facts. Humbug is their enemy. Dissent comes easily to them, as does complexity. These are traits that are not only unnecessary for most business jobs, they are actually a handicap when it comes to rising through the ranks of large companies.”

“Difference Between *** In the journey of my life The sorrows and difficulties Enmity of enemies And continued-storm Stayed with me My patience, my perseverance Tears of gratitude Defeated every storm In this big world People bite Live for themselves Suck the blood of others I have no high-status However, I have my identity I also steal objects And take advantage But then I beautify that And return it beautifully As a honeybee steals juice And gives back As a gift of healthy honey It doesn’t take anything It is the difference Between me and others.”

“Isolation taught me lessons that no amount of noise, distractions, or crowds ever could. In solitude, I discovered the depth of my own thoughts, the strength I never knew I had, and the clarity to see what truly matters. Sometimes, being alone isn’t loneliness, it’s a journey to self-awareness, growth, and an unshakable understanding of life.”
