Bob Dylan made beautiful words as well as melodies. In his opinion, “A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between he does what he wants to do.”

Treat every day as a space for doing what you love. Eg. Trolling the internet for charts! I know reddit can be a scary place, but I do recommend exploring the depths of r/Charts, r/DataIsBeautiful, r/Infographics, and of course r/QuotesPorn!

George Bernard Shaw warned us to “Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.”

Shaw is a fabulous person to quote, I rely on his words liberally and often. Also, full disclosure that I’m an anthropology major by trade and got a substantial kick out of fitting the ‘armchair anthropologists’ joke into this one (a term that refers to academics who don’t venture too far outside the library and hide from actual fieldwork – a crime anthropologists were especially guilty of in the early years of the discipline).

Old charts worth digging back up from my archives:

One – The Trajectory of Things Meant to Be

Two – Thriving in Darkness

Three – This Is Water

Loving the quote submissions so far! About to get cracking on turning with into pretty little diagrams.

David Lynch inspired this chart-like reflection on the ebbing and flowing of imagination through the years, especially in relation to the “rules” of life.

“We think we understand the rules when we become adults but what we really experience is a narrowing of the imagination.”

First Illustrated Quote Chart from I Love Chart-ist Reader Submission!

“After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally you see things as they really are, and that is the most horrible thing in the world.” – Oscar Wilde

Thanks to likethatofarainbow for the quote! Oscar Wilde was definitely a character, and if anyone were to be given the opportunity to hang out with him (in the afterlife… obviously) I’m sure they would appreciate this guide to rely upon.
