People have a way of becoming what you encourage them to be — not what you nag them to be.

–S.N. Parker

If people are expected to behave well, they tend to; and vice versa.

— Paul Graham

The best teachers I remember from school had three things in common:

(1) They had high standards. Like three year olds testing their parents, students will test teachers to see if they can get away with low-quality work or bad behavior. They won’t respect the teachers who don’t call them on it.

— Paul Graham

真誠朋友

A：
人與人的關係，可能悲慘到什麼地步？

B：
你能想像得到的悲慘關係，世間都有；
你無法想像得到的悲慘關係，世間亦有。
沒有悲慘至極這回事。悲慘無極。

— Mr. Lee

.

被朋友出賣, 屬正常.
被朋友遺棄, 屬自然定律.
可以難過, 但毋須傷心.

有朋友無條件地對你好, 是奇遇.
有朋友在你有難時為你出頭, 是奇蹟.
要更加好好珍惜.

你, 可以做到別人的真誠朋友嗎?

– Me

Wikipedia on Arthur Schopenhauer:

— He is commonly known for having espoused a sort of philosophical pessimism that saw life as being essentially evil, futile, and full of suffering.

— However, upon closer inspection, in accordance with Eastern thought, especially that of Hinduism and Buddhism, he saw salvation, deliverance, or escape from suffering in aesthetic contemplation, sympathy for others, and ascetic living.
