Motivational quotes for the 'Quiet Quitting' generation

Rejecting hustle culture isn't lazy; it's a recalibration of priorities. First of all lets be honest, hustle culture is one of the biggest scams ever sold to huanity. What is point in spending all your time working and 'hustling' (instead with family, friends, hobbies, etc.). Ruining your health in process, giving away your time on this planet for what? When the reward for hard work is just more work, doing exactly what you're paid for is revolutionary. This is for those who work to live, not live to work.

Homeric quotes on 'Glory' and 'Legacy'

Achilles chose a short, violent, and glorious life just so people would speak his name three thousand years later—and here we are. We often tend to underestimate ancient people and their wisdom. Thinking we are modern and advanced humans, the best ones up until now. But ancient Greek philosophers and many other ancient scholars were experts for human mind and soul. In the terms of average modern man they were far more enlightened. Homer’s epics explore the weight of legacy and the absolute necessity of doing something 'great' before the current of time carries us away. These quotes are for the ones who are thinking about what they will leave behind long after the shield and spear are laid down.
