“Realizing that anyone can do it is the first step.”

The challenge is getting everyone to pay attention to it.

Since the age of four, I’ve been exploring what I can do with the written word.

Our words can have power that we don’t think we have in everyday life.

We’re used to the characteristics of social media – participation, connection, instant gratification.

Maybe we don’t need to wait for our grandchildren’s questions to remind us we should have paid more attention to current events.

Where no girl is denied access to education, for instance.

Se oAnd I do watch TV, but only informative programmes like the news and documentaries.f sex is enraging.

All that you need to become an entrepreneur and change the world is a working brain – and pretty much nothing else.

But it doesn’t change the fact that we are chained to the beast. Voluntarily, of course.

A real world that is increasingly technology-driven.

Because I think that we are less hampered when it comes to ‘this costs too much’ or ‘that’s impossible.’

There’s no committee that says, ‘This is the type of person who can change the world – and you can’t.

A lot of negative words adults call the young.

It seems we’re not only uninformed about our present.

I realise I’m still a child, though I do feel older.

If we all understood we can learn from both older and younger people, then we’d have a better world.

Do not let anyone else run your business

Ill put my progressive credentials up against anyones.

In my experience, anyone can paint if he doesn’t have to.

Can anyone expect that a step of this kind will improve the quality of our long-term investments?’

Anyone who puts 110% into their work deserves as much success as they can get.

This leads to deep humility and deep confidence at the same time. It undermines both swaggering and sniveling. I cannot feel superior to anyone, and yet I have nothing to prove to anyone. I do not think more of myself nor less of myself. Instead, I think of myself less.

I thought anything might happen if I wasn’t vigilant. I didn’t eat. I didn’t go out. I didn’t want to see anyone. But I survived, Paul.

If anyone can show me … that there is any reason – other than fear – to believe in any version of an afterlife, I’ll give you my piano, one of my legs, and my wife.
