This sentence by Dostoyevsky never fails to hit hard:

“You sensed that you should be following a different path, a more ambitious one, you felt that you were destined for other things but you had no idea how to achieve them and in your misery you began to hate everything around you.”

Ya allah please give me the confidence of an average 20y/o boy who thinks he's an expert in politics, economics, international relations, religion, philosophy, linguistics, quantum physics, nuclear physics and advanced maths, despite never picking up a single book in his life.
