Bangambiki Habyarimana
“A coward is a man who'd rather live dead than die alive”
Bangambiki Habyarimana, The Great Pearl of Wisdom

Jon Meacham
“He was the most contradictory of men. A champion of extending freedom and democracy to even the poorest of whites, Jackson was an unrepentant slaveholder. A sentimental man who rescued an Indian orphan on a battlefield to raise in his home, Jackson was responsible for the removal of Indian tribes from their ancestral lands. An enemy of Eastern financial elites and a relentless opponent of the Bank of the United States, which he believed to be a bastion of corruption, Jackson also promised to die, if necessary, to preserve the power and prestige of the central government. Like us and our America, Jackson and his America achieved great things while committing grievous sins.”
Jon Meacham, American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House

“The best desire one thing above all, ever-flowing eternal fame among mortals; but the many glut themselves like cattle.”
Bronze Age Pervert, Bronze Age Mindset

Søren Kierkegaard
“With every increase in the degree of consciousness, and in proportion to that increase, the intensity of despair increases: the more consciousness the more intense the despair”
Søren Kierkegaard, The Sickness Unto Death: A Christian Psychological Exposition for Upbuilding and Awakening

“It’s important never to be ‘ambitious.’ Men of ‘ambition’ are losers. Act and feel like a winner and good things, friends, and victory will come.”
Bronze Age Pervert, Bronze Age Mindset
