According to the most rigorous estimates, the cost to save a life in the developing world is about $3,400 (or $100 for one QALY).

Through the simple act of donating to the most effective charities, we have the power to save dozens of lives. That's — William MacAskill

In the extreme moment, only force can stop force. — Rory Miller

I never let the memory of something painful prevent me from trying something new. If you think too much about the ass kicking your mom gave you or the ass kicking that life gave you, you'll stop pushing the boundaries and breaking the rules.
