“An algorithm can arrive at optimization, but only a human being - an artist, a thinker, a mathematician, an entrepreneur, a politician - only someone with a sense of perspective can interpret the meaning of the destination. Masters spend their entire lives in pursuit of this interpretation. This is how they make sense of the world.”

“Some people are molded by loss. Others, destroyed. But still, there is another type of people. They aren’t broken. They aren’t proud. They aren’t superheroes. They’re just people, indifferent in entirety, moving each day without a single care, without a single question. Life is just a daily meal. Served, chewed up, taken away before it gets too decayed. Sometimes disgusting, sometimes elegant, but, in the end, it’s always taken away and brought elsewhere. They have many names for these people— weird, disconnected, cold, heartless, cruel— but in reality they are only one thing: people.”
