Question of the day:
#1 What is your biggest regret?

My biggest regret, truthfully? Not risking to believe in the good of the people around me for fear of getting hurt by their lack of it. Wait a minute...

Actually, fuck that. I guess I have zero regrets.

“Worrying” means trying to imagine as many horrible outcomes of a given situation as possible. It is one of the most popular human pastimes.

"Nice library. Is one of these a trick book?"

"How so?

"The greatest service we can do to education today is to teach fewer subjects. No one has time to do more than a very few things well before he is twenty, and when we force a boy to be a mediocrity in a dozen subjects, we destroy his standards, perhaps for life.”

@EricDJuly Can I just simply agree, instead?

[Emile Cronjé @smalltracks]

Yo, South Africans! What is racism? What does it mean to be South African? I‘m led to believe it has a lot to do with Ubuntu - can we start that conversation yet? #methree @etbal @mynhardt @Sisonkemsimang @DeepFriedMan @Trevornoah
