“От първата секунда, в която се появим на този свят, ние всички сме една и съща ненаписана книга. С какво ще бъдат запълнени белите страници? Много са факторите, разбира се, но в крайна сметка ти си авторът на своя собствен роман и когато бъде написана последната дума, само от теб ще зависи дали ще ставаш за четене. И колкото по-бързо разберем, че корицата няма значение, толкова повече време ще можем да отделим на самия сюжет. Някой беше изчислил, че човек взема средно по пет хиляди решения на ден. Това са 130 милиона решения за един човешки живот. Не смятате ли, че в крайна сметка ние дължим своята идентичност не на начина, по който изглеждаме, и не на това, с което сме напълнили къщата си, а на сбора от тези решения и техните последствия... Не е ли напълно очевидно това простичко екзистенциално уравнение: ние сме това, което правим!”
― Иво Иванов, Кривата на щастието: За спорта, Вселената и всичко останало
