    "Everyone else is bound by their obligations.
    Money, reputation, glory.
    For the sake of acquiring these things, they will bend
    over backward, laugh when they don’t want to, ignore
    corruption, and even abandon the weak.
    However, for the jobless, there is no need to deal with
    any of those things.
    Because the unemployed are neither compensated nor
    rewarded.
    When to bend over backward, laughing when you want
    to laugh, passing judgment on the wicked, and helping
    the weak.
    The only one who could possibly do such a thing is
    someone without an occupation.
    Being jobless is a noble existence."

    As beautiful as this may be, the last sentence is wrong.
    No objections.

    ...in a way (if you think about yourself), this is true.
    Meh. It ain't as if you were to be summoned by a higher-up / people from another world and require those knowledge anyways. ...unless you are in the military.

    I hate nice girls. Just exchanging greetings with them will get them on your mind. Start texting each other, and your heart will be set a flutter. If they call you, you're done for. Enjoy staring at your logs and grinning like a fool. However, I won't get fooled again. That's what your kind calls kindness. If you're nice to me, you're nice to others. I always end up nearly forgetting that. Reality is cruel, so I'm sure lies are a form of kindness. Thus, I say kindness itself is also a lie. I always ended up with these expectations. And I always ended up with these misunderstandings. And before I knew it, I stopped hoping. A highly trained loner is once bitten, twice shy. As a veteran on this battlefield of life, I've gotten used to losing. That's why I always hate nice girls.

    In essence, language accounts for a mere 30% of human communication. The other 70% is made up of information collected from eye movements and other body language. With that, even a loner who never takes part in conversation can pull off 70% of what we consider communication.

    There is no such thing as perfect in this world. That may sound cliche, but it’s the truth. The average person admires perfection and seeks to obtain it. But what’s the point of achieving perfection? There is none. Nothing. Not a single thing. I spit on perfection! If something is perfect, then there is nothing left. There is no room for imagination. No place left for that person to gain additional knowledge or abilities. Do you know what that means? For scientists such as us, perfection only brings despair. It is our job to create things more wonderful than anything before them, but never to obtain perfection. A scientist must be a person who finds ecstasy while suffering from that antimony.

    "A person reveals his character by nothing so much as the joke he resents."

    "Men weary as much of not doing the things they want to do as of doing the things they do not want to do."

    "Education... is a passion and a paradox. Millions want it, and commend it, and are busy about it. At the same time, they degrade it by trying to get it free of charge and free of work."

    "Even knowledge has to be in the fashion, and where it is not, it is wise to affect ignorance."

    "What you can do in this world is a matter of no consequence. The question is, what can you make people believe that you have done."

    "When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves, in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it"
