What is the opposite of happiness? Sadness? No. Just as love and hate are two sides of the same coin, so are happiness and sadness… The opposite of love is indifference, and the opposite of happiness is – here’s the clincher – boredom… The question you should be asking isn’t ‘What do I want?’ or ‘What are my goals?’ but ‘What would excite me?’… Living like a millionaire requires doing interesting things and not just owning enviable things.

Timonthy Ferris

People should live in a world that fully engages their senses, their bodies, and their brains.  This means either that the world resembles the ancestral savanna more than say a windowless office; or alternatively, that brains and bodies have changed to be fully engaged by different kinds of complicated challenges and environments.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

People should get smarter at a rate sufficient to integrate their old experiences, but not so much smarter so fast that they can’t integrate their new intelligence.  Being smarter means you get bored faster, but you can also tackle new challenges you couldn’t understand before.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

Life should contain novelty – experiences you haven’t encountered before, preferably teaching you something you didn’t already know.  If there isn’t a sufficient supply of novelty (relative to the speed at which you generalize), you’ll get bored.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

Whatever you see as profitable, flee from it!
Drink poison and pour away the water of life!
Abandon security and stay in frightful places!
Throw away reputation, become disgraced and shameless!

Rumi

David Fincher Movies are masterpieces. I know for sure that he reads so many beautiful books and creates awesome movies. It all started with the movie – Fight Club – Absolute Treasure. Gone Girl is a masterpiece. So as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. He knows the dark side of Brain.
