“The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of a mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.”
- Wilheim Stekel
Pick your battles. Of the injustices I witness, I do not always speak out. I believe in the conscientious pursuit of goals with actions and words, not redundant exercises in vanity.
The naive believe themselves omnipotent, while the dying believe themselves impotent - they are the only ones exempt from thought in action.
