I’ve been enjoying Tim Ferris’ 5-Bullet Friday newsletter for the past couple of years (thanks to Jacob for the introduction). Most weeks this newsletter includes a Quote I’m pondering (this week’s didn’t, just because I was thinking about it).

So here’s a quotation that I’ve been mulling over recently:

But denunciatory rhetoric is so much easier and cheaper than good works, and proves a popular temptation. Yet is it far better to light the candle than to curse the darkness.
