I have died so many deaths and have lived so many lives; maybe an opportunity will spring tomorrow; tied to a person who expects that I replica the playbook that informed their successes and that I do right by them. When this happens, I painfully sever the ties and burn bridges

Question is, what do I do with my wide knowledge base of economics? I was considering doing a PhD in development economics because I can. But then, what happens to physics? How do I explain that I could have been this and that if I'd stayed? To be or not to be?

To not consent to suicide is to accept a new kind of gory thought; that when we die, most of us will leave behind uneaten biscuits, unused coffee and panties, half toilet rolls, and half cartons of milk in the fridge to go sour.

If you want to perform at the highest rungs in life, you, first of all, must reach the epiphany that virtue can be learnt through practice. You do not have to believe that 'service to humanity is the best work of life' before you test your mettle

In our ever changing world so full of what is wonderful, help us, O God, to accept with gratitude all that gladdens us, and to accept with fortitude all that brings us grief.

The first thing I'm doing on starting my PhD will be to tattoo the equations of the standard model of physics all over my arm. Yes, I'm weird like that, na you dey rate who no rate himself

One day upon introspection, you'll find that your darkest days will be the stories worth sharing
Thank you for trying again, today

To say that every opinion counts will, at best, be disillusioning; vox populi does not have to be vox dei, especially given how ill-informed the people can be about the data.

On some days I overestimate my importance. I picture a gallery of Obama and Einstein and the best parts of my father, and imagine that good things are inevitable if only I would punch above my weights. Maybe I'm just downright clueless. Maybe I'm bloated brilliance. Who cares?
