Building intimacy in a relationship
I read this article on how to build intimacy by ThinkSimpleNow, and I thought it was really true!

Tips to life from a Stock Trader
I just borrowed this book, Jesse Livermore: World's Greatest Stock Trader - By Richard Smitten, from the library yesterday.

Scene from Charles Dickens' “Great Expectations”
Jaggers: I’m instructed to communicate to him that he will come into a handsome property. Further, that it is the desire of the present possessor of that property that he be immediately removed from his present sphere of life and from this place and be brought up as a gentleman. In a word, a fellow of great expectations.
