It made me feel like a sellout and, worse, a fraud. Now set free, like any inmate I had to figure out what to do with the rest of my life." - Kathleen Flinn
     
  • "Every job I take, within minutes I'm thinking, 'I can't do this.' I think it's what makes me work. People think I just swagger in and do it. But I doubt myself all the time. It's what pushes me, what makes me work harder. The older I get, the less I take for granted." - Ray Winstone

And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on." - Steve Jobs

Wherever you are- if you are following your bliss, you are enjoying that refreshment, that life within you, all the time." - Joseph Campbell
