Steve Jobs
“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
Steve Jobs

The comment from your friend in Iran is a wonderful tribute to your work. You have influenced someone who is thousands of miles away engaged in events that could alter Iran's future. The Little Black Fish sounds like a wonderful book. I am complimented that you see similarities with my work and in my thinking.
Thanks for taking the time to acknowledge that. I agree and hope we have many peers spreading the gospel of good ideas,

Peace, herb

Ruby Emam Hi, Herbert. Thanks for your friendship. It is amazing how much the two of us have in common... "The Little Black Fish" also has a political undertone, there is a section where this book deals with "how difference is treated" in all societies.
The next quote really describes my book too!!! "He finds the meaning of love and answers to the great questions of life through a series of unexpected events."
& Finally Samad Beh-Rang the author of "The Little Black Fish" also was "...someone who would rather change the world than rule it..."
After the recent political events in Iran, I received an email from a friend who said: "WE ARE MILLIONS OF LITTLE BLACK FISH ON THE STREETS."
