  3. Steve Jobs
    “Your work is going to fill a large
    part of your life, and the only way to
    be truly satisfied is to do what you
    believe is great work. And the only
    way to do great work is to love what
    you do. If you haven’t found it yet,
    keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all
    matters of the heart, you’ll know
    when you find it. And, like any great
    relationship, it just gets better and
    better as the years roll on. So keep
    looking until you find it. Don’t settle.”

  4. Steve Jobs
    “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. Don't let the noise of
    other's opinions drown out your
    own inner voice. And most
    important, have the courage to
    follow your heart and intuition.
    They somehow already know what
    you truly want to become.
    Everything else is secondary.”

  5. Albert Einstein
    “That is the way to learn the
    most, that when you are
    doing something with such
    enjoyment that you don’t
    notice that the time passes.”
    Letter sent to his son Next

  6. Robert Krulwich
    “If you can… fall in love, with the
    work, with people you work with,
    with your dreams and their
    dreams. Whatever it was that got
    you to this school, don’t let it go.
    Whatever kept you here, don’t let
    that go. Believe in your friends.
    Believe that what you and your
    friends have to say… that the way
    you’re saying it — is something
    new in the world.

  7. John Cleese

    talent. It is a way
    of operating.”

  8. Hugh MacLeod
    “The most important thing a
    creative person can learn
    professionally is where to draw
    the red line that separates what
    you are willing to do, and what
    you are not . Art suffers the
    moment other people start
    paying for it. The more you need
    the money, the more people will
    tell you what to do. The less
    control you will have. The more
    bulls** you will have to swallow.
    The less joy it will bring. Know
    this and plan accordingly.”
