Zero to Two: Notes on Dating
by Peter Thiel

"What unique trait does this prospective spouse have that nobody else is providing?"
"How would you persuade the 20th child to join your family?"
"SMV competition is for losers. Every boy and girl wants to become a monopoly."
"The best spouses know this: every great marriage is built around a secret that's hidden from the outside. A great family is a conspiracy to change the world; when you share your secret, the recipient becomes a fellow conspirator."
"The most valuable [families] of coming decades will be built by [couples] who seek to empower [children] rather than try to make them obsolete."
"By the time a student gets to college, he's spent a decade curating a bewilderingly diverse resume to prepare for a completely unknowable future. Come what may, he's ready--for nothing in particular."

Oh wait I didn't have to change any words for that one. 😎
"Most of a [family's] value will come at least 10 to 15 years in the future."

Honestly this is book is great advice if you sub it into the domestic sphere.
