Hitched

When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.

Well...

A friend of mine told me to shoot first and ask questions later.

I was going to ask him why, but I had to shoot him.

Back when men were men

George Washington McLintock: [the two argue heatedly over whom their daughter will stay with] No go, Kate. 

Katherine McClintock: I hate you. Oh, how I hate you. 

George Washington McLintock: Half the people in the world are women. Why does it have to be YOU that stirs me? [passionately kisses Katherine] 

Katherine McClintock: You animal!

~ John Wayne and Maureen OHara, in McLintock

Good advice

Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers. 
~ Voltaire

Inspired indeed

Make friends with people who want the best for you 

Your friendships aren't just social circles. 

They're projections of your future self. 

After hanging out, do you feel inspired or drained?  

The answer will reveal your relationship's quality.
~ Jordan Peterson

Start with your habits

Set your house in perfect order before you criticize the world 

Some people complain about everything but can't manage their own life. 
 
Look at yourself first. This makes you confident to face bigger issues later. 

Changing the world is hard, so start with your habits.

~ Jordan Peterson
