“Think like a pessimist but act like an optimist. Have modesty about your personal role in things, which is infinitesimally tiny. But you should act as if everything in the scheme of things depended on what you personally do. I am not a big believer in having opinions about the future. I am a believer about having opinions about the things you as an individual can and should do. I am going to act as if everything I do in the here and now really matters, without being a megalomaniac. I know it doesn’t. But I believe that if a million of us believe that what we do in the here and now matters, that will matter a lot.” – David Frum
