- Never again clutter your days or nights with so many menial and unimportant things that you have no time to accept a real challenge when it comes along. This applies to play as well as work. A day merely survived is no cause for celebration. You are not here to fritter away your precious hours when you have the ability to accomplish so much by making a slight change in your routine. No more busy work. No more hiding from success. Leave time, leave space, to grow. Now. Now! Not tomorrow!
- Og Mandino (1923 - 1996)

- Keep writing. Keep doing it and doing it. Even in the moments when it's so hurtful to think about writing.
- Heather Armstrong, Keynote Speech, SXSW 2006
- The meek shall inherit the earth? Well... I don't think so. If by meek you mean friendly and introverted, okay maybe, but if by meek you mean unwilling to take a chance, then never. If I was a betting man and I had to wager on who I thought would inherit the earth, my money would be on the curious.
- Jim Coudal, Keynote Speech, SXSW 2006
- People are people, messy and mutable, combining differently with one another from day to day - even hour to hour.
