Listened to the Joe Rogan podcast #2180 - Jordan Peterson. A few quotes really resonated with me:

2:12:30 If you think there are no monsters, you’re naive and willfully blind to the point of delusion and … there are none so blind as those that will not see

2:13:48 - What you need in a father, someone who encourages intelligent upward aiming sacrifice and an orientation towards others … reward for delay of gratification

2:15:54 - I didn’t say you should, you must, you ought … I said there is no difference between responsibility and adventure … the heavier the responsibility the more profound the adventure

2:17:00 - You want to get your life together, take the path of maximum responsibility … not because you should, that’s not why … it’s because that’s the pathway of maximum adventure

2:17:25 - What is the meaning of life - it is the meaning that reveals itself when you take the pathway of maximum responsibility … the greatest possible treasure is to be found where the danger is most intense … if there is a dragon, there is a treasure somewhere
