    Steve Jobs
    “That’s been one of my mantras — focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains. [BusinessWeek, May 25 1998]”
    Steve Jobs

    Steve Jobs
    “I've read something that Bill Gates said about six months ago. He said, ‘I worked really, really hard in my 20s.’ And I know what he means, because I worked really, really hard in my 20s too. Literally, you know, 7 days a week, a lot of hours every day. And it actually is a wonderful thing to do, because you can get a lot done. But you can't do it forever, and you don't want to do it forever, and you have to come up with ways of figuring out what the most important things are and working with other people even more.”
    Steve Jobs

    Marilyn Monroe
    “A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night”
    Marilyn Monroe

  • #4
    Napoleon Hill
    “When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.”
    Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich

  • #5
    Maya Angelou
    “I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life'.”
    Maya Angelou

  • #6
    Criss Jami
    “Persistence. Perfection. Patience. Power. Prioritize your passion. It keeps you sane.”
    Criss Jami, Killosophy

    Bill Watterson
    “Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it’s to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential — as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth.

    You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them.

    To invent your own life’s meaning is not easy, but it’s still allowed, and I think you’ll be happier for the trouble.”
    Bill Watterson

  • #8
    “I don´t have dreams, I have goals.”
    Harvey Specter Suits

  • #9
    “The only time ‘success’ comes before the ‘work’ is in the dictionary.”
    Harvey Specter Suits

  • #10
    Charles Bukowski
    “That’s when I first learned that it wasn’t enough to just do your job, you had to have an interest in it, even a passion for it.”
    Charles Bukowski

    Mark Twain
    “Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
    Mark Twain

  • #12
    “Pick a leader who will keep jobs in your country by offering companies incentives to hire only within their borders, not one who allows corporations to outsource jobs for cheaper labor when there is a national employment crisis. Choose a leader who will invest in building bridges, not walls. Books, not weapons. Morality, not corruption. Intellectualism and wisdom, not ignorance. Stability, not fear and terror. Peace, not chaos. Love, not hate. Convergence, not segregation. Tolerance, not discrimination. Fairness, not hypocrisy. Substance, not superficiality. Character, not immaturity. Transparency, not secrecy. Justice, not lawlessness. Environmental improvement and preservation, not destruction. Truth, not lies.”
    Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
