Gold Rush Quotes

• Because, you know, resilience - if you think of it in terms of the Gold Rush, then you'd be pretty depressed right now because the last nugget of gold would be gone. But the good thing is, with innovation, there isn't a last nugget. Every new thing creates two new questions and two new opportunities.

• Para mí es muy importante ser respetado por los verdaderos artistas de talento y las grandes mentes que por las masas que necesitan que les digan cómo pensar. Para mí es más importante hacer cosas que sean espiritualmente gratificantes, porque esa riqueza es lo que me hace sentir vivo. No toco proyectos que no me aporten realización personal, o que me sitúen en un campo con talento sobredimensionado. No me encontrarán donde no hay Verdad. Y no soy de los que se suben a ningún carro ni se unen a una fiebre del oro sin un propósito. Prefiero crear mis propios proyectos y cultivar mis propios campos.

• California is a tragic country — like Palestine, like every Promised Land. Its short history is a fever-chart of migrations — the land rush, the gold rush, the oil rush, the movie rush, the Okie fruit-picking rush, the wartime rush to the aircraft factories — followed, in each instance, by counter-migrations of the disappointed and unsuccessful, moving sorrowfully homeward.

• This perhaps was what lay at the root of the hysteria surrounding what came to be known as the Gold Rush: Men desiring a feeling of fortune; the unlucky masses hoping to skin or borrow the luck of others, or the luck of a destination. A seductive notion, and one I thought to be wary of. To me, luck was something you either earned or invented through strength of character. You had to come by it honestly; you could not trick or bluff your way into it.

• Not only America but all countries should think together about how the enormous might of the sole remaining superpower should be used. We need a leadership that is based on partnership, a leadership that unites nations and makes it possible to solve the problems of the globe together. Otherwise, we will have another Gold Rush for a superpower that wants to gain even greater advantages, that wants to gain an absolutely new position for itself. That would lead to a perverse utopia.
