The Newsroom s03e06 What kind of day has it been
It was the Kwench story and the models at the party.
Leona convinced him to give a woman a high-level promotion.
Yeah, that's probably right, but who cares? What does it matter how you got the job? You have the job.
You're gonna get to do the job.
That's a really big deal.
It's gonna be harder than it was for Charlie with Reese and Leona.
It's gonna be a fight with Pruit every day and over big things.
I have faith.
Why? There's a hole in the side of the boat.
That hole is never going to be fixed and it's never going away and you can't get a new boat.
This is your boat.
What you have to do is bail water out faster than it's coming in.
Also, I have to not die.
That's crucial.
It's always gonna be something with you, isn't it? Charlie: You know what, kiddo? In the old days of about 10 minutes ago, we did the news well.

The Newsroom s03e04 Contempt
Good afternoon.
I'll tell you, Mr.
Geary, this isn't the best time.
You two are a couple.
We're not, but maybe we can do this later.
No, you are.
I have a signed letter declaring that you are.
It was sitting in my office in a pile of things I hadn't gotten to yet.
- Somebody ratted us out? - Yes.
Nobody around here would drop a dime.
You're blowing smoke.
- Who cheesed? - Okay, Mugsy.
- You did.
- Huh? - You did.
- Which one of us are you talking to? - I think you know.
- What's he talking about? Sloan wrote a letter to HR declaring the two of you a couple.
Yeah, it was after you made $125 on the Chipotle trade I tipped you off to.
We spent the last two weeks trying to conceal from this man that we're dating and the whole time you knew you'd sent him a letter saying we were dating? - Mm-hmm.
- Why? Well, obviously I was hoping he'd never find out.
But you knew he was gonna read the letter eventually.
Eventually is a wonderful time of day.
This was a cross that bridge when we get to it situation for me.
And here we are.
We're at the bridge.
- Wyatt - Is lying to corporate something you do habitually? Don and I like to make decisions about lying on a case-by-case basis.
Maybe you've helped enough.
Please, don't transfer one of us.
We don't work together enough, but the little we do works.
And if you ask Sloan to choose between me and her job, you wouldn't be able to get that sentence out before she said her job, and I really like her and I'm trying to be good enough.
And this here is the best thing that I do.
And can I say one more thing? It's just occurred to me that your company is only going to own my network until the end of the day, so what the hell has this all been about? - Come to think of it - I'm blown away you let me do it this long.
Why did you do it this long? Fun.
I work in HR.
Our days aren't scored by the "Hallelujah Chorus.
" I don't know anything about the story you were all working on, but I know enough to say sorry.
Good luck to the two of you.
I'm a big fan.

Friends with benefits
[as Dylan decides to work through lunch]
Tommy: A work ethic. I love it! That is why this country is still number one. Well, behind Germany and France and Belgium and Japan and China. Thank God for Bangladesh!
Tommy: Oh! By the way, why did you take your door off its lovely hinges?
Dylan: It was dumb, man. Something I saw in management book.
Tommy: Oh! Right! Right! Like that's how Warren Buffett got rich. He took doors off of things! Hey, everybody wants a short cut in life. My guide book is very simple. You wanna lose weight? Stop eating, fatty! You wanna make money? Work your ass off, lazy! You wanna be happy? Find someone you like and never let him go. Or her if you're into that kinda of...creepy shit.
House of cards
“You know what Francis said to me when he proposed? I remember his exact words. He said, ‘Claire if all you want is happiness, say no. I’m not going to give you a couple of kids and count the days until retirement. I promise you freedom from that. I promise you you’ll never be bored.’ You know, he was the only man—and there were a lot of others who proposed—who understood me.” He didn't put me on some pedestal. He knew that I didn't want to be adored or coddled. So he took my hand and he put a ring on it. Because he knew I'd say yes.
“I’m Doug and I’m an alcoholic. One of the things I do for a living, is count. I count votes: yays, nays, neutrals, abstaining; I’m good at it. But the most important count I do has nothing to do with work. It’s the number of days since April 4th, 1999; as of this morning that’s 5185. The bigger that number gets, the more it frightens me, because I know all takes is one drink to go back to zero. Most people see fear as a weakness. It can be. Sometimes for my job, I have to put fear in other people. But I know that’s not right. But if I’m honest, like the fourth step asks us to be, I have to be ruthless, because failure is not an option. The same goes for my sobriety. I have to be ruthless with myself. I have to use my fear. It makes me stronger. Like everyone in this room, I can’t control who I am. But I can control the zero. Fuck the zero.”

Richard Bach wrote "The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.
Non-stopping talk about
It was Benjamin Franklin, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States who once said that “When you are finished changing, you are finished”.
How do you know ?
I have kept this for a long time, as proof that we'are all just one small adjustment away from making lives work.
You can see why thought of this for you, can't you?
The NEWSROOM season 1 episode 10
Sloan:“I don’t know who told you you’re a bad guy, but somebody did. Somebody along the way, somebody or something convinced you of it, because you think you’re a bad guy, and you’re just not. I’m socially inept, but even I know that. So, because you’re a bad guy, you try to do things you think a good guy would do. Like committing to someone you like but maybe don’t love. I could be wrong. I almost always am.”
Don: "Why are you single?"
Sloan: "A lot of men are intimidated by my intellgence. "
Don "No, seriously."
Sloan: "Because you never asked me out."
Don : "I heard you were staying. "
Sloan: "Yes. Yeah, I will still be working here, as will you, and I am mortified."
Don: "It’s…"
Sloan: "We will both be working here, but we will never speak or make eye contact ever again starting now. "
Don: "I don’t think that’s realistic.
Sloan: "I just turned down $4 millions a year so that I can try to do some good by reporting the news.
Do I sound like someone who’s living in the world of the realistic?
Done: "It’s really…"
Sloan: "Starting now. "
The NEWSROOM season 1 episode 7
Let tonight serve as a welcome reminder that throughout our history. America's darkest days have always been followed by its finest hours.
New Year's Eve
Claire Morgan Ball Drop Speech
Claire: "It's suspended there to remind us before we pop the champagne and celebrate the New Year, to stop and reflect on the year that has gone by. To remember both our triumphs and our missteps - our promises made, and broken. The times we opened ourselves up to great adventures - or closed ourselves down, for fear of getting hurt. Because that's what New Year's is all about: getting another chance. A chance to forgive, to do better, to do more, to give more, to love more. And stop worrying about 'what if' and start embracing what would be. So when that ball drops at midnight - and it will drop - let's remember to be nice to each other, kind to each other. And not just tonight but all year long."
To Be Honest
然而，大多數人只是「想要」成功而已。關鍵是，你對自己真的坦誠嗎？你是否已經找到了真正熱愛的東西、了解自己的優缺點、為自己找到市場上的定位、懂得在別人面前表現自己？
我並不認同「熟能生巧」（Practice makes perfect.）這種說法。對我來說，世上沒有「完美」，永遠都有更進一步的空間。所以我相信，
只有實踐才是永恆的（Practice makes permanent.）——藉由不斷進步，你比較不會把事情搞砸，但也不會真的做到完美。

從謊言開始的旅程：熊本少年一個人的東京修業旅行
值得一看的輕品小說。
人生並不是不明就裡地去追求別人口中的幸褔，去獲得別人擁有的東西。不是為了把人生浪費在追求那種無聊的事務上。
不管別人說什麼，認真面對自己想要做的事。
因為這人生不是別人的，是你自己的。
不管你是笑還是哭，不管你後悔做過了什麼事情，或是對未來惶惶不安，今天的事實都不會改變，所以才要隨遇而安。
當下擁有的， 才是最重要的。
現在這一刻，對每個人而言，分分秒秒都是無可取代的。在家的時候，和父母交談的時候，和朋友共處的時候，都是這麼的珍貴。
絕對不要等到事物遠離再也找不回時，才覺得可惜，才有所警覺。
讓你覺得舒服自已的地方，並不是因為周圍人為你做了什麼，而是因為你能為周圍人做什麼。
提起勇氣吧，錯失這次機會，下次也許不會再有了。

人生不可能總是順心如意，但持續朝著陽光走，影子就會躲在後面。刺眼，卻是對的方向。by 九把刀
雞蛋，從外打破是食物，從內打破是生命。
人生亦是，從外打破是壓力，從內打破是成長。
如果你等待別人從外打破你，那麼你註定成為別人的食物；如果能讓

ER Season 15 Episode 12 Dream Runner
Dr. Neela Rasgotra
He toughest thing about being a doctor isn't the terrible hours. It isn't the loneliness, the isolation, or the knowledge that one day, we lose out to the relentless decay of the human body. No, it's something else.
[later] The toughest thing is making the right call when it counts.
The care of every patient is a twisty maze that leads to an infinite number of potential outcomes. We hope that knowledge and experience guide us, but sometimes it becomes obvious a wrong turn was made.
[later] If only it were possible to apply the wisdom of our mistakes, go back to the fork in the road, and this time, be assertive. Choose the road we think we should take, not the path of least resistance.
