We’re richer, but that wealth doesn’t reflect durable, authentic economic value - which is hitting fast diminishing returns.

What might be happening in human beings who experience near death is that they are getting cold, but before they get so cold that they would die, they’re actually diminishing their oxygen consumption in a way that is unknown.

Death is final. No it is not just final, it’s worse than that, it’s diminishing: the dead continue to decrease, to occupy less space Picture Quote #1

So time passing is an accumulation, rather than a diminishing Picture Quote #1

No human being can come into this world without increasing or diminishing the sum total of human happiness Picture Quote #1

From the fact of general well-being came the new position of the poor. They were now in most communities a minority. The voice of the people was now the voice of relative affluence.

Whenever you compete, trying harder is truly the game of diminishing returns and a losing one at that Picture Quote #1
