I like to say, “Experience is what you got when you didn’t get what you wanted.”

The Most Important Thing Illuminated

Howard Marks, Paul Johnson

Health outweighs all other blessings so much that one may really say that a healthy beggar is happier than an ailing king. A quiet and cheerful temperament, happy in the enjoyment of a perfectly sound physique, an intellect clear, lively, penetrating and seeing things as they are, a moderate and gentle will, and therefore a good conscience — these are privileges which no rank or wealth can make up for or replace.

The Wisdom of Life

Arthur Schopenhauer

The rule of 20 was you talk to 20 people that don’t really know you, but they’re in your target market segment but they’re not talking to you just because they’re your buddies. The first five discussions you have, you just sit there and you just ask them about how they do their job and you say nothing about what you do, nothing at all.
