In biology, Bateman's principle is the theory that females almost always invest more energy into producing offspring than males invest, and therefore in most species females are a limiting resource over which the other sex will compete. It is named for English geneticist Angus John Bateman (1919–1996).

The Scarcity Principle
The Ben Franklin effect is a psychological finding: A person who has done someone a favor is more likely to do that person another favor than they would be if they had received a favor from that person. Similarly, one who harms another is more willing to harm them again than the victim is to retaliate.

The bigger the lie, the more people will believe it
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life

Well, that's true with every day except one the day you die.

Last words of Lester Burnham
I had always heard your entire life flashes... in front of your eyes the second before you die. First of all, that one second... isn't a second at all. It stretches on forever, like an ocean of time. For me, it was lying on my back... at Boy Scout camp, watching falling stars. And yellow leaves from the maple trees... that lined our street. Or my grandmother's hands and the way her skin... seemed like paper. And the first time I saw my cousin Tony's... brand-new Firebird. And Janie. And Janie. And... Carolyn.
I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst.
And then I remember to relax... and stop trying to hold on to it. And then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but gratitude... for every single moment... of my stupid little life.
You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure.
But don't worry.
You will someday.
-- Last words of Lester Burnham.

Anagnorisis & Peripeteia
Anagnorisis (/ˌænəɡˈnɒrɨsɨs/; Ancient Greek: ἀναγνώρισις) is a moment in a play or other work when a character makes a critical discovery. Anagnorisis originally meant recognition in its Greek context, not only of a person but also of what that person stood for. It was the hero's sudden awareness of a real situation, the realisation of things as they stood, and finally, the hero's insight into a relationship with an often antagonistic character in Aristotelian tragedy.
