Your work is first, learning is first, winning is everything because without it there is nothing.
Orson Scott Card
That's what so many people didn't understand about life. The real world is the one within the walls of homes the outside world, of careers and politics and money and fame, that was the fake world, where nothing lasted, and things were real only to the extent they harmed or helped people inside their homes.
