“One of the most effective ways to learn about oneself is by taking seriously the cultures of others. It forces you to pay attention to those details of life which differentiate them from you.”

“...things can happen when you least expect them so you always gotta be prepared. And pay attention to the details. The devil is in the details.”

“We can best help children learn, not by deciding what we think they should learn and thinking of ingenious ways to teach it to them, but by making the world, as far as we can, accessible to them, paying serious attention to what they do, answering their questions -- if they have any -- and helping them explore the things they are most interested in.”

“One of the key things is learning which bits of life you don't need to take seriously. Usually far more than you expect.”

“A man's accomplishments in life are the cumulative effect of his attention to detail.”

“Learning to pay attention to how your body feels can offer you rich guidance about your choices and direction in life.”
