The human world is a long way from meeting the needs of the present, and it is borrowing massively from the future — not only by piling up money debt, but also by degrading the resources from which all real wealth ultimately comes.

Donella Meadows

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

Jim Rohn
