People discuss the importance of choosing the right city to live in, but it’s even more granular than that: choose the right neighborhood. In my case, I didn’t appreciate how much living in a walkable neighborhood with many trees would impact my day-to-day happiness. It’s huge.

The way to attract good luck is to be reliable in a valuable area. The more you repeatedly deliver value, the more people seek you out for that value. Your reputation is a magnet. Once you become known for something, relevant opportunities come to you with no extra work.

In my whole life, I have known no wise people (over a broad subject matter area) who didn’t read all the time — none, zero. You’d be amazed at how much Warren reads–and at how much I read. My children laugh at me. They think I’m a book with a couple of legs sticking out.

People spend too much time doing and not enough time thinking about what they should be doing.

Spend each day trying to be a little wiser than you were when you woke up. Day by day, and at the end of the day-if you live long enough-like most people, you will get out of life what you deserve.

I believe in the discipline of mastering the best that other people have ever figured out. I don’t believe in just sitting down and trying to dream it all up yourself. Nobody’s that smart.

Your goal in life is to find out the people who need you the most, to find out the business that needs you the most, to find the project and the art that needs you the most. There is something out there just for you.

What is the best thing about people doubting your potential? The pleasure of proving them wrong.

Smart people do dumb things.

I was always fascinated by people who are considered completely normal, because I find them the weirdest of all

Do you have any idea how mad you sound?’‘Indeed I do. I have in moments of doubt considered the question of my sanity.’ (…)‘And?’‘Then I consider what a piece of work is man. How defective in reason, how mean his facilities, how ugly in form and movement, in action how like a devil, in apprehension...

You want to live in a world where someone is good or bad. Where you either hate them or love them. But that’s not how people are.

That awkward moment when you are sitting next to people who gossip too much that you are even scared of leaving them cause you know that you are next.

It’s crazy how you hear the story of The Tortoise and the Hare while growing up, and assume it’s just a nice thing to tell kids—and then you start your career and watch it actually happen. The people who stick with things for years and never stop almost always win the race.

Some selfish people rise because some kind people haven’t learned the art of saying no to them.

A perfectly normal person is rare in our civilization.

I got a great reception from the crowd. It felt really good to know other people look at what we are doing as a positive thing in the community.

I can’t speak for Jan Harder, but what I would say is the best thing for people who are not sure is to see for themselves what the upper deck is like and have fun. We can’t just stop having contests. You could say (we’ll have) the best dance contest. Well, what if somebody dances...

The major mistake people pursue in decision making is to surround themselves with negatively minded people. People who are going nowhere will never take you anywhere; people who are going everywhere can take you somewhere.

Planning to write is not writing. Outlining, researching, talking to people about what you’re doing, none of that is writing. Writing is writing.

Intellectual death is endemic in areas where people are unprepared to obtain new information for development. Learning is a way of staying alive.

The problem we have in Kenya – which is not a new problem – is that of impunity. People are rarely held accountable for their actions, enabling grand corruption to persist.

I know that everyone has been watching and they feel bad for all these people so I was hoping that by seeing a face, someone they recognize, doing something to help, it will encourage everyone to come up with ideas for how they can help, … We all can do something. If you’re sitting on...

This whole thing is, everybody’s waiting for Friday. People are worried about the Fed raising rates.

Be careful you don’t give up on what is yet to give you victory. Many people quit when they were yet to win. Successful people never quit and I believe no quitter had ever been successful too.

The thing is people just didn’t know who was there, how good (Tyrone) Nelson was and the guards were.

Feet of Flames was a great show, hugely successful. I know a lot of people were upset with me when I didn’t continue it. But it’s hard to be working on a new work of art when you’re still dancing in another one.
