How to Achieve Anything: An episode about accomplishing what you want and wanting beneficial things.

One of the ideas I hear parroted mindlessly nowadays really irks me. It irritates me like no other idea because it is absolutely, blatantly, irrefutably inaccurate, and at the same time extremely oppressive, enraging, and disheartening. It is the idea that when you are born, things the color of your skin, your gender, your family social standing, and your family wealth level are the finite and unchangeable factors which will determine your individual outcome in life.

Interesting Soros quotes:

"The main enemy of the open society, I believe, is no longer the communist but the capitalist threat."

"Globalization has rendered the world increasingly interdependent, but international politics is still based on the sovereignty of states."

"If we care about universal principles such as freedom, democracy and the rule of law, we cannot leave them to the care of market forces; we must establish some other institutions to safeguard them."

"The generally accepted view is that markets are always right -- that is, market prices tend to discount future developments accurately even when it is unclear what those developments are. I start with the opposite view. I believe the market prices are always wrong in the sense that they present a biased view of the future."

"The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States. [This idea] happens to coincide with the prevailing opinion in the world. And I think that's rather shocking for Americans to hear."

"I am for maximum supervision and minimum regulation."

"I was a human being before I became a businessman."
