The world is little more than a Rorschach blot in which we see our own desire systems projected. We see what we want to see. (116) ↗

I have seen them in the performance of their function: they always arrive extremely tired from their journeys; they speak of a broken stairway which almost killed them; they talk with the librarian of galleries and stairs; sometimes they pick up the nearest volume and leaf through it, looking for infamous words. Obviously, no one expects to discover anything. ↗


— Jorge Luis Borges

But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result. ↗


— Mahatma Gandhi

We had all opted to take City's financial reporting course work, which, in theory, meant we wanted to write about stock prices and corporate takeovers. That, of course, was a joke. No one still in their twenties, and broke, goes into journalism to write about money—a subject in which they still have zero practical experience. ↗
