Every trade leaves transaction records there to be seen. If one knows where to look and how to examine the history and data, much can be learned not only about quotidian sales of stock by the obvious players, large and small, but about more troubling truths and trends.
- from The Death of Money book by James Rickards
I am extremely serious about the value of hard work. I believe it creates not only success but happiness, too. You can never feel satisfied if you're not applying yourself to something you're passionate about.

Most people come to New York to be discovered. The rest of us come here to hide.
- from Verity book by Colleen Hoover
To achieve lasting success, you have to strive for balance when building your team. If you only surround yourself with people from your past, then chances are the past is where you'll be stuck. But if you abandon the people who were in the trenches with you for people you've just met - the ones who might be charismatic but have never proved anything to you - you're probably going to get burned.

There is nothing like a War for the reinvention of lives.
- from Midnight's Children book by Salman Rushdie
I always take a man at his word unless he's given me a reason not to, and I've worked out many a satisfactory deal on the strength of a handshake.

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self-mastery. From struggle comes strength.
- from The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book by Robin Sharma
Kant argued that you shouldn't use people merely as a means to an end. I feel the same way about ideals - you shouldn't use them as a means to an end either. We shouldn't take a sincerely held value and then prostitute it for private gain.
- from Woke, Inc. book by Vivek Ramaswamy
The art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.
