"Sono dell'opinione che la mia vita appartenga all'intera comunità e, finché vivo, è mio privilegio fare per essa tutto ciò che posso".
Se solo la metà dei nostri politici (o forse dei politici di tutto il mondo) ragionasse così... 😔

“Life is not meant to be easy, my child; but take courage: it can be delightful.” ―George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) From “Man and Superman” (1903) in the “Maxims for Revolutionists” section. #writerslift #life #authors #love #art #coffee #diary #write #books #amwriting #quotes #GeorgeBernardShaw The quote challenges the idea that identity is something fixed or hidden, waiting to be discovered. Instead, it presents life as an active process of shaping who you become through choices, actions, and experiences. Rather than searching for a predefined self, the individual is responsible for building their identity over time. This perspective emphasises personal agency and the ongoing nature of growth. At a deeper level, the statement suggests that fulfillment comes not from uncovering a static truth about oneself, but from engaging with life creatively and deliberately. It encourages people to take ownership of their direction and to view change as an opportunity rather than a disruption. By framing identity as something created, the quote promotes a mindset of possibility, where individuals are not limited by who they have been, but are continually evolving through what they choose to do next. The common version of Shaw's writing - “Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” - is not found in any of his works. It's an internet paraphrase.
“Life is not meant to be easy, my child; but take courage: it can be delightful.”
―George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)
From “Man and Superman” (1903) in the “Maxims for Revolutionists” section.

Accepting information or argumentation uncritically is incredibly dangerous; that’s why thinking, knowing how to think, and practicing thought are important.

on problems with professions self-defining, -certifying, or -regulating, imo a fascinating, essential read is #TheDoctorsDilemma by #GeorgeBernardShaw, both play & Preface (1909), source of maxim "All professions are conspiracies against the laity". TIL there's a 1959 UK film version: #wishlisted!
