Quote by George Hammond

“Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. But if for some reason you want to persuade others to hold your opinions, either you have to have high-end rhetorical skills or, better yet, some emotional leverage over how they pursue their self-interest. Most persuasive of all, though, is simply to express their already held opinions more passionately.”

In her imagination, he had leaned down to kiss her lips, but in his recollection, she had leapt into his arms, wrapping her legs around his body as she hungered for his warmth. There was a certain dichotomy to the act of giving and receiving, of loving and being loved. Even as they explored one another for the first time—an awkwardness here, an apology there—and through the giggles, laughter, and tears, they made one another complete.”

“Find your passion Barbell, where you pick a few things that you love and are good at and are generally more monetizable. As you make money from these things and obtain a relative degree of financial stability, use that stability and freedom to pursue other passions that you love and care about but may completely burn yourself out if they are your only source of income.”
