Like an old gold-panning prospector, you must resign yourself to digging up a lot of sand from which you will later patiently wash out a few minute particles of gold ore.

As South Korea shows, active participation in international trade does not require free trade. Indeed, had South Korea pursued free trade and not promoted infant industries, it would not have become a major trading nation. It would still be exporting raw materials (e. g. , tungsten ore, fish, seaweed) or low-technology, low-price products (e. g. , textiles, garments, wigs made with human hair) that used to be its main export items in the 1960s.

Thus is the challenge, to look at the world from a different perspective.

Load every rift with ore.

Everything is close to my face and everything close to my face is stone. I don't have much knowledge yet in grief, so this darkness makes me feel small. You, be the Master; Make yourself fierce; break in. And then your great transforming will happen to me And my great grief cry will happen to you.
If you want to build a car, you don't slap a bunch of iron ore, some sand, a rubber tree, and a couple of cows together and call it good
A metallurgist is someone who can look at a platinum blonde and tell whether she's virgin material or a common ore.
