These are my favorite quotes (some paraphrased, and some my own).
"Once you're wired for distraction you crave it" — Cal Newport
A quote that inspired me to quit social media. Indirectly, I can also attribute this to a significant reduction in overall screen time and digital stimulation/tool use.
"Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." — Albert Einstein
We all have different life experiences. Different strengths, weaknesses, and perspectives. I think a great trajedy in our modern algorithmic world is us losing sight of this. Algorithms that try to neutralise our differences and create uniformity towards artificial "perfection". No wonder there is a mental health crisis.
