“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.

They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” — Steve Jobs

“It’s a funny thing about coming home. Looks the same, smells the same, feels the same. You’ll realize what’s changed is you.” — The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Conor Oberst

“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.” — John Pierpont

“Passion is a feeling that tells you: this is the right thing to do. Nothing can stand in my way. It doesn’t matter what anyone else says. This feeling is so good that it cannot be ignored. I’m going to follow my bliss and act upon this glorious sensation of joy.” — Wayne Dyer
