Passion is a feeling that tells you: this is the right thing to do. Nothing can stand in my way.

It's slow. It's inch by inch. But nature always bats last. The planet isn't going anywhere.

If I sat down in any room, I'd have as much to learn from anybody in that room as they'd have to learn from me. If I sit down and just really listen and hear who you are and what you have to say, what you fears are, what your ambitions are, and what your vision is, I have just as much to learn from you as you have to learn from me.
