Success

There’s no such thing as a “successful life”, since every life ends up with death, thus, ultimately, being unsuccessful.

No one voluntarily leaves the top, but is pushed out.

Without reading, our minds would be blank.

Nature is like a blind painter: it keeps churning up species, without knowing which one will succeed. If it sticks, it sticks.

We age and die because of the existence of Time.

The more I learn about biology/genetics, the more I become a creationist.

I always thought that humans go about life all wrong. It’s not about analyzing, planning, deducing. You have to live.

Which species are best adapted for life? Simple ones (hydra, immortal jellyfish), that last longest, in evolutionary time.

Remove everything in life that distracts you (cigarettes?)

Everything became ‘content’ and we all became ‘consumers’. Geeks are responsible for that.
