I know starting careers in troubled times is a challenge, but it is also a privilege. Because it's moments like these that force us to try harder, dig deeper and to discover gifts we never knew we had. To find the greatness that lies within each of us. So don't ever shy away from that endeavor. Don't stop adding to your body of work.

This life gets bitterly cold. Sometimes you just need to cling to the person that you can claw your way out of the dark with.: Chris Dingess, Being Human, Wouldn't It Be Nice (If We Were Human), 2011
I didn't go to college at all, any college, and I'm not saying you wasted your time or money, but look at me, I'm a huge celebrity.: Ellen DeGeneres, Tulane Commencement Speech, 2009

When I was younger I thought success was something different. I thought, " When I grow up, I want to be famous. I want to be a star. I want to be in movies. When I grow up I want to see the world, drive nice cars. I want to have groupies." But my idea of success is different today. For me, the most important thing in your life is to live your life with integrity and not to give into peer pressure, to try to be something that you're not. To live your life as an honest and compassionate person. To contribute in some way.: Ellen DeGeneres, Tulane Commencement Speech, 2009
