luxury

Understand: I don't ever want to be equal to any other being. I always want to be greater...in all things, in all circumstances.

The reason why many people remain on the bottom is because they play to 'not lose', as opposed to playing to win at all costs.

No one is born with equality. We all come here with varying degrees of opportunities, qualities, strengths, weaknesses, IQ, etc.

I don't want to be around people who accept me as is, in my unrefined state of becoming. I consistently want people around me who push and encourage me to be my ultimate best, who bring out the inner diamonds. I want to be around those intellectual giants who extract the gold within me, those who force me to read, to attend classes, seminars, conferences, and who steep me in an environment of perpetual growth and upward mobility. Not trying to be funny, but I've learned that I simply cannot afford to invest too much time around mediocrity. It's contagious.

Someone should do a study of the human brain and how quickly it can adjust to luxury.

It took a certain kind of person to come from luxury and seek out danger.

Though we eat little flesh and drink no wine,Yet let's be merry; we'll have tea and toast;Custards for supper, and an endless hostOf syllabubs and jellies and mincepies,And other such ladylike luxuries.

Don't judge me. Ethics and morality no longer exist in our world. It's a luxury of the past, afforded only to those who had a future.

I have never been drawn to luxury. I love the simple things; coffee shops, books, and people who try to understand.
