Experience is often the most valuable thing you have to offer.

Just because you're in the driver's seat, doesn't mean you have to run people over.

You can't get there alone. People have to help you, and I do believe in karma. I believe in paybacks. You get people to help you by telling the truth, by being earnest.

I am going to keep having fun every day I have left, because there is no other way of life. You just have to decide whether you are a Tigger or an Eeyore.

If I was able to tell my story with the passion I felt, my lecture might help others find a path to fulfilling their own dreams.

I’d compare college tuition to paying for a personal trainer at an athletic club. We professors play the roles of trainers, giving people access to the equipment (books, labs, our expertise) and after that, it is our job to be demanding.

People lie for lots of reasons, often because it seems like a way to get what they want with less effort.
