Who wants to be a millionaire?


If you wanted to give me ten million euros right now, I'd say, get stuffed.

The point of life isn't to have everything you ever wanted and be comfortable, but to want and to strive to get what you want.

Okay, to be honest, I wouldn't, because I'm not that sure of myself. ;P But the point stands.


Food tastes better when you're hungry. Rest is richer when you're tired.

When you glut yourself and still eat more, the food is hardly pleasureable. If you do nothing all day but watch TV, you never really feel anything from it; you just go into a trance.

The reward is worth only a fraction of its value for its own sake. The rest of the value is the work you put into it yourself.

People kill themselves every day because they don't see any point in life. Well, there isn't one! But people who have "things to live for", don't care about this little niggle. It might never cross their mind.

The pleasure of constantly climbing the ladder, even being knocked down a few rungs but still knowing that failure is a necessary hurdle on the road to success, is greater than any single toy.


Be honest, would you watch a movie that involved the characters having everything they ever wanted and never have anything bad happen or worry at all?
