“Remembering you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.  You are already naked.  There is no reason not to follow your heart.”                                                                                 – Steve Jobs

“What I like most about change is that it’s a synonym for “hope”.  If you are taking  a risk, what you are really saying is, “I believe in tomorrow and I will be part of it.“                                                                                                                             – Linda Ellerbee
