"There are many roads in this world, but the destination is the same. If your faith remains, you will eventually reach it." "In a world full of good people, I want to be a villain; in a world full of bad people, I want to be a good person."

    They're all really good! Except for the first one, the others don't have any romantic pairings and are purely about careers. The last one is about food; the author also has another book with a super good section on that topic. If you can't wait for that one, you can check out the other one.
